Learning outcomes
The course Czech History 2 will deal primarily with crucial elements of the development of the Czech Lands, Czechoslovakia, and the Czech Republic, respectively, in the modern era (1780-present). The main aim of the lectures will be to introduce to foreign students the key issues of social, political, and economic development from a historical Czech perspective. The course is organized according to the most important milestones of Czech history for the undergraduates to analyze them, understand their background, and interpret their meaning for local and global history. No prior knowledge is required, as one of the aims is to broaden and deepen the insight of students from the high school and bachelor's program.
After completing this course, students will be able to understand the historical development of Central and Eastern Europe and place them in the proper context of the World's progress. The general idea is to present Czech history as interconnected with a Global perspective as possible to be relatable to the students from abroad.
