Learning objectives
The course aims to provide the knowledge of the crucial phases of the history of the contemporary world for the period 1914-1989. Particular attention is dedicated to the study of the political, cultural and social relations that characterized the relationship between Europe and the most developed areas of the world in the last century, taking into account both the changes introduced by the processes of globalization of the economy and the changes that took place in terms of international relations. At the end of the course the student must be able to: a) know the most relevant periodizations and events related to the indicated historical period, b) critically confront the fundamental problems of global history, c) use the different historiographic interpretations in an appropriate manner.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Basic knowledge (school level) of the fundamental features of the history of the Twentieth Century.
Program
The course will retrace the main stages of the political history of the 20th century, adopting a perspective that is as global as possible. During the lessons, among other things, the evolution of political communication over the century and in relation to international changes will be highlighted. Some of the common threads of the course will be:
- The long agony of traditional empires
- The end of European centrality and attempts to reinvent it
- The rise of dictatorial regimes between the two world wars
- Successes and failures of institutions for collective security
- The geopolitical and ideological antagonism of the Cold War
- The roots of the new "globalization" between old and new inequalities
- The birth of "new empires"?
Bibliography
Didactic methods
Frontal lessons. The synthetic material shown during the lessons will be made available to the students and will facilitate the study of the manual.
Learning assessment procedures
The exam is written, consisting of four open-ended questions: three on various topics in the manual, one on the book of your choice. The exam lasts two and a half hours.
Evaluation criteria
The assessment will reward the synthesis, the correct understanding of the questions, and the ability to combine in the answers what has been learned in the manual and during the lessons.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
Each answer will be given a maximum grade of 7.5 points, for a total of 30 for the entire exam.

PLEASE NOTE: In order to be admitted to any teaching activities, including those of your choice, you must be enrolled in the academic year in which the activities in question are offered. Students who are about to graduate in the December and April sessions are therefore advised NOT to undertake extracurricular activities in the new academic year in which they are not enrolled, as these graduation sessions are valid for students enrolled in the previous academic year. Therefore, students who undertake an activity in an academic year in which they are not enrolled will not be granted CFU credits.
