How did people across the global south imagine their futures after colonialism? How did they seek to construct new and stable social orders? What obstacles existed to realizing their dreams?

Looking across the developing world, the class will explore themes including race, state identity, institution formation, industrialization and agricultural reform, nationalism and citizenship, governance and ideology, and violence and memory.
