How do they justify the importance of studying Central Europe nowadays?  A topic of special interest will be to consider recent approaches in understanding the mutual relationship between the history of Central Europe and the United States.

Class discussion of readings, oral and written presentations by class participants.

Oral and written presentations on selected topics (3-4 pages during the semester).
