HIST 3180 - Caribbean History

The Caribbean Sea will be examined as a region, emphasizing the ties uniting the islands and the circum-Caribbean coasts. The region’s past - including empire and imperial conflict, racial oppression and interaction, and international contact - and its legacies are discussed in relation to political economics, race, and contemporary culture. Meets non-Western requirement.
