So far I have finished one syllabus for next semester. I wrote it last night. I will post it tomorrow. I decided to center the course Aspects of World History 1914-1945 around Nazi Germany and the USSR. I am assigning Robert Gellately's
Lenin, Stalin and Hitler: The Age of Social Catastrophe (London: Vintage, 2008) as the main text for the class. I think centering the class around the two major dictatorships in Europe during the early 20th century gives the class a central focus. I would be curious if anybody else has ever taught a class that essentially compared and contrasted the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany and what were the results?
