The UCSB program in Modern European History offers a comprehensive
range of courses from the French Revolution to the present.
Coverage includes major national histories - Britain, France,
Germany and Russia/Soviet Union - and thematic courses with
strong comparative and cultural dimensions. It blends traditional
and non-traditional approaches to political, cultural, social,
diplomatic and economic history, with emphasis on the history
of radical movements of the left and right (the Russian
Revolution, socialism/communism, fascism/nazism, anti-Semitism
and the Holocaust), gender studies, public policy, and war
and society. The graduate program provides an integrated
combination of reading and research seminars and preparation
for university teaching. Modern Europe faculty are core
members of thematic clusters in gender studies, the history
of the Cold War, the history of science, the Southern California
Russian History Program and Jewish Studies. Members are
also affiliated with Environmental Studies and East Asian
Languages and Cultural Studies.
