| Brief Summary of Proposal | This proposal is to add the course 3400: 418 History of Brazil Since 1500 to the History Department course offerings. This course will add an important component to the Department's offerings, as it focuses on one of the main "emerging powers" from the Southern Hemisphere, a leader in the negotiations for the redefinition of free trade between the United States and other countries, and the largest and most populous country of Latin America. This course will contribute to the Latin American Studies Certificate program and to the current emphasis on global studies at the University. The course focuses on the economic, political, social and cultural history of Brazil, since 1500 until the present, underlining issues of development, political participation, national consciousness, as well as gender, race, and ethnicity. |
