HIST 372. Afghanistan in Regional and Global Systems


Credits 3.00 PeopleSoft Course ID 012160

The country’s Silk Road heritage, early Islamic experience, and frontier status between Safavid Iran and Mughal India introduce modern Afghanistan’s origins within British Indian colonialism and global capitalism. Twentieth-century and contemporary Afghanistan are engaged through concepts of modernity, nationalism, internationalization and local social and cultural resilience and adaptation.
