AMST 380 - Art, War, and Social Change

Semester Offered: Spring
1 unit(s)
(Same as SOCI 380 ) In recent years the “War on Terror” has expanded. Many politicians are eager to declare “World War III,” and the refugee crisis continues to challenge the world. Militarism is increasing, and the public may once again come to accept the idea of sending ground troops abroad. In a climate such as this, it is vital to consider how nations conceptualize war, and equally important how groups and individuals might argue against it. To address these issues, this course looks at a body of work that challenges the precepts of war, or mourns its losses. Works include novels, films, music, art, memorials, poetry, and photography.
