HIST 379 Expansion & Empire in U.S. History
This seminar traces both violent and non-violent American territorial expansion from its colonial origins through the articulation of Manifest Destiny, to the overseas colonies that the U.S. acquired after the Spanish-American War. We attend especially to factors of race, gender, citizenship, and political and cultural integration versus separation.
