POS 3270 - Revolutions, Transformed Economics & Social Change


Credit(s): 3

From 1688 to 1978 the world was wracked by a series of violent upheavals referred to as revolutions that affect our lives on a daily basis on every continent on the globe. From the English revolution in 1688, through the American in 1776 and the French in 1789, the Bolshevik in 1917, to that of Iran in 1978, the Christian and Muslim fundamentalist revolutionary movements in the 21st century. What were/what are these movements? What factors play a role in their development? What are their religious, national, psychological, economic and social consequences? Who leads and participates in them, who wins and who loses, and why? We shall study all.

Recommended: At least one political science or history course
