Does it exist, how did it develop, what is the role played by geographical conditions, economy, religion, tradition, culture and politics? A guiding thought is that the history of Europe can be seen as a constantly changing system of networks that enables people to exchange ideas, cultural experiences and to trade. An important question is what can unite and what can split people in Europe?</p><p>The course consists of a series of lectures and two compulsory seminars. The purpose of the seminars is to provide the students with opportunities to engage in deeper discussions of the course literature and the themes of the course. Further instructions about the seminar assignments will be given during lectures and posted on Lisam.
