TOPIC : Fascism and Antifascism This graduate-level readings course will explore a range of political movements in Europe and the Americas since the 1920s, with particular emphasis on ideologies and cultures inspired by fascism and various entities opposed to it. We¿ll engage debates and definitions that have defined the study of fascism in the past 20 years. Geographically, we will examine movements in Latin America and the United States and explore their relation to one another and to fascist and antifascist movements in Spain, Italy, and Germany. Readings will include approximately 8-10 monographs and 12-14 scholarly articles. Students will be expected to participate in weekly discussions and presentations, and to produce weekly response papers and analyses culminating in a final paper. For their final papers, those who wish to identify and draw on readings in languages other than English, to be used in tandem with assigned English-language texts, are invited to do so; however, all submitted work and discussions will be in English. Students of Spanish may petition to submit a final paper in Spanish. During the semester, we will be treated to guest visits by at least four specialists of fascism and antifascism.
