Università Roma Tre

The aim of the course is to provide students with the knowledge of political, institutional, socio-economic and cultural transformations, which occurred during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It also intends to provide the spatial and temporal coordinates along which European and global history unfolds, with the aim of giving impetus to a critical and interpretative capacity of the contemporary.

At the end of the course the student:
- has acquired the knowledge of the facts that characterize contemporary history and the profound changes that have occurred in society between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
- has developed a functional analytical capacity for understanding the political, institutional and cultural changes of the contemporary world.
