At the end of the course, students are able to:
 explain how Europe as a coherent macro-region was
historically constructed in the modern period and the
region’s defining characteristics. (C2)
 analyse how national, regional and global dynamics
interact to produce key political, social and cultural

 identify the historical and modern perspectives of the
genesis of Europe. (A4)
None
The course provides an interdisciplinary examination of
historical transformation, social change and cultural
patterns of modern Europe. The aim is to provide a
foundation for students to understand the conditions
that gave birth to modern Europe, especially the
European Union. It offers an insight into the ways in
which national and regional dynamics have interacted in
shaping a unique pattern of regional integration. A key
focus is on the efforts of Europeans to shape their own
destinies and establish their role in the world.
