HIST 363 - Revolution and Conflict in Twentieth-Century Latin America

1 unit(s)

(Same as LALS 363) Revolution has been a dominant theme in the history of Latin America since 1910. This course examines the revolutionary experiences of three nations-Mexico, Cuba, and Nicaragua. It examines theories of revolution, then assesses the revolutions themselves-the conditions out of which each revolution developed, the conflicting ideologies at play, the nature of the struggles, and the postrevolutionary societies that emerged from the struggles. Ms. Offutt.
