Abstract

This course explores the history of Interwar Europe (1918–1939), a period marked by immense social, political, and economic crises. It thematically examines transnational issues of the era rather than focusing on individual national cases. The course investigates how various political and social movements—communism, fascism, and democratic parliamentarism—emerged and struggled for power in the aftermath of the First World War. Key topics include the Paris Peace Conference, the post-war revolutionary wave, the expansion of voting rights across the continent, the evolving social and political role of women in European societies, the 1929 Wall Street Crash and the subsequent global economic crisis, the rise of fascism, and the failure of two major attempts to establish lasting peace in Europe: the League of Nations and the Communist International.
