History 402: Cultural Decades: Canada, 1945 to the Present examines selected themes and issues in post-World War II Canadian social and cultural history. Themes we will consider this year include the relationship between the present and the past, the challenges that we face as historians of relatively (and, particularly of very) recent history, settler colonialist imperialism, race, gender, class, and sexuality, and the uneven development of the “affluent society” in fact and in fiction. This combined graduate-undergraduate seminar seeks to collectively define, problematize, challenge, and focus on the meaning of cultural history and of the cultural in history through examination of Canadian case studies of categories of social-cultural phenomena including sport, music, public spectacle and the lived experience of place and space.

Please note this course is combined with HIST 826.
