How to read this slide: Clockwise from the “midnight” position: 1) First, two basic Conceptual & Chronological Units preparing us to think about broad issues of past, present and future

2) The heart of the course is 4 theme-driven modules on relatively recent past and present issues: energy, climate, conservation, and colonialism.

3) We conclude with a future-oriented series of lectures on global forces and the trends they create.
