HIST 2642 departs from conventional European and nation-centered perspectives to analyze how empires shaped global order. Beginning with the Mongol Eurasian conquests, this course stretches across Asia, Europe, the Americas, and Africa, focusing on imperial conquests, rivalries, and strategies of domination—with an emphasis on how particular empires accommodated, created, ruled though, and managed different ethnic groups. A central theme of this course is how narratives of global history are constructed, their relationship to power relationships, and which historical actors drop away versus become central over time. Crafting a wikipedia entry and working with existing entries allows students to tangibly think about how history is constructed by working on questions of sourcing and how certain people/regions/topics enter or are elided from the historical record.
