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.
