This course on Nazi Germany and the Second World War is designed to accommodate both beginner and intermediate students who have an interest in the most catastrophic war of human history. The focus is on origins and outcomes of the conflict, wartime diplomacy, the strategic and operational aspects of the struggle, the impact of the war on the major civilian societies, the ideological dimensions of the conflict, the problem of moral judgment under the stress of war, and the Holocaust. While the focus of the course will be on the period 1939-1945, the course will also examine, in some depth, the diplomatic and military origins of the war in the interwar period. World War II had a decisive impact upon the world order. The division of much of the world into two armed camps, one dominated by the United States and the other by the Soviet Union, was to a large extent the consequence of actions and decisions made during the decade 1937 to 1947.
