About this course

The Korean War (1950-1953) began as a civil war but became a global conflict against the backdrop of the emerging Cold War era. Known as "the Forgotten War" in the U.S., this conflict resulted in 5 million deaths and left an indelible imprint on the world. Seven decades later the Korean peninsula remains divided, and the contentious international security mechanisms engendered by this conflict still shape East Asian relations and U.S. foreign policy. Through engagement with recent historical works, this seminar course will explore the origins and legacies of this conflict, security options and limitations, and conditions and visions of peace.This course fulfills the LAMA requirement for History majors.
