Section Info:
Topic: The Koreas: The Korean War to the 21st Century. Ever since the establishment of two Korean nation-states after the end of World War II, North Korea and South Korea have been part and parcel of key trends and phenomena in East Asia and the world. As such, the post-1945 history of Korea has been shot through with transformations, dynamism, conflicts, triumphs, and the unexpected. This course explores the society, culture, and politics of the two Koreas. Key topics include national division and the Korean War, the Cold War, memory, and everyday life. This course is a Big Ten Academic Alliance course and is taught via video conference from Univ. of Wisconsin, Madison. Instructor is Prof. Charles Kim.
