Abstract
This course is a broad survey of the political, constitutional, social, and economic development of the United States from the Reconstruction period to the 1980s. We will devote particular attention to the growth of a corporate capitalist economic order, the emergence of a strong national government, the rise of the United States as a global power, and struggles to achieve justice for all Americans. The basic format is that of a lecture course, but discussion will play an important role. We will discuss documents, as well as the three supplementary books for the course, at great length. Class participation, in other words, is important. You should leave this course with not only a broad understanding of United States history since 1877, as well as with improved oral, written, and critical thinking skills.
