HIS 1110: Introduction to Global History
Professors Allina and Terretta co-teach this course which they subtitle “Human Rights, Human Wrongs: Slavery and Colonialism in Historical Perspective.” Since slavery and colonialism touched virtually all parts of the globe in the last half millenium, we find that teaching students to think historically about these phenomena provides an essential introduction to global history.

HIS 3585: La décolonisation de l’Afrique francophone (Thèmes choisis en histoire africaine)
La Deuxième Guerre mondiale constitue un moment important dans l’émergence et l’évolution des mouvements de libération indépendantistes en Afrique, un continent majoritairement sous domination coloniale. Les populations africaines s’organisent en partis politiques, syndicats, et mouvements sociaux et religieux, pour réclamer l’autodétermination qu’elles estimaient leur droit. Ce cours examine l’évolution et la variété de ces mouvements en Afrique coloniale francophone.
