Putting the Nation in its Place: Migration, Exchange, and Identity as History

This class is designed to introduce students to thinking about migration and exchange as a primary perspective on history, helping us understand the origins and limits of nation-based histories, as well as linking local and regional histories and formations of identity to global processes of migration and exchange. The class is not designed to supplant national historiography, but to help put it in its place as one form of historical consciousness and narrative. A final historiographic paper or term research project, and in-class presentations will be expected.
