UiO sin egen emnebeskrivelse — læringsutbytte, innhold og vurderingsform.
In this course, we study British history within the framework of one out of three centuries: the 18th, 19th or 20th century. A main aim of the course is to train the students in the historical approach, assessing relationships of cause-and-effect in the past, and the question of change versus continuity. Independently of which of the three centuries we address, therefore, we ask ourselves the overall question: to what extent was the British society that emerged at the end of the century a different one from that of a hundred years before? The course will offer a combination of general history within the period covered, and focus on a theme of particular relevance to the century under investigation. Both the century addressed, and the specific theme emphasised, may therefore vary with each offering of the course.
Semester topic for Autumn 2025: Twentieth Century British History
In this course, we will study the major political, economic, social, and cultural developments in twentieth-century British history. This was a period of momentous change, and the British society that emerged at the end of the century was radically different to that of a hundred years prior. The political system which had held sway in Victorian Britain underwent profound change throughout the twentieth century, and there was the emergence of truly mass, democratic politics. Britain had to come to terms with no longer being the world’s economic superpower and the loss of its Empire, with decolonization and migration reshaping British politics, society and culture. Britain endured two World Wars, each of which affected society in a multitude of ways. Traditional modes of behaviour also broke down, with the coming of the ‘permissive society’ and the ‘Swinging Sixties’.
On this course, we will explore all of these developments, but we will also emphasize a key historic theme: the ways in which Empire and decolonization shaped British society.
