Students learn to critically discuss the cultural and political identities of Europe.

ES 101.1 European History - 6 cr

What is European history? One can approach the European history as merely event history focusing more on chronology, change, continuity, causation and sense of historical periods. Another perspective is to focus more on the concept of history associated with the study of European history as a history of the European mythos. This course seeks to apply both perspectives and focus on the major historical events that had a formative impact on the European continent as well as on the intellectual history of the European idea.

ES 203.1 European Integration and External Relations - 6 cr

Covering around ten million square kilometers, Europe is the second smallest of the world鈥檚 seven continents. On the other hand it is number three in terms of the population over seven hundred fifty million people. But Europe, like most continents, it is not just a place, a geographical container for those European states. It is also an idea and an identity. Throughout European history Europe has been witnessing much more by divisions, tensions and conflicts rather than it has by any common purpose or harmony of spirit. After the Second World War, the relations between the states of Western Europe have been started to transform peacefully. As a result of this, Europe is no creation. It is a rediscovery.

The objective of this course is to provide students with a general understanding of the European Integration and External Relations.
