Description: BETWEEN RESISTANCE AND COLLABORATION: INDIVIDUALS RESPONDING TO NATIONAL SOCIALISM ***** Through a variety of readings (fiction and non-fiction), film viewings (documentaries and feature films), and classroom discussions, this course will focus on individuals' behavior in Nazi Germany/Austria. We will examine issues of ideology and ethics as Germans and Austrians faced them between 1933-1945. Through a critical encounter with various examples of response to totalitarianism, we will reflect on values such as courage, civil disobedience, and human rights in today's global society. The course will be taught in English. ***** Also offered as GERM 125. *****
