HST 336 - The Roosevelt Era

Course Units: 1
(Not Offered this Academic Year) This course will focus on major interpretive issues that surround the presidency of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. We will study how historians have disagreed, over time, on issues such as: Was FDR a raving radical or the best friend of big business? Was the New Deal a good deal or a raw deal for African Americans? Was World War Two a “good war”? Could FDR’s administration have done more to prevent the Holocaust? This is a reading-intensive, discussion-centered class that requires active student engagement.
