1 Science, Technology, Medicine & War HIS 350L Instructor: Perrin Selcer Office: GAR Office Hours: M 1-2; W 12-1; F or by app. Spring 2011 M, W, 3:30 5: Calhoun Hall Course Description We tend to think of wars as pathological abnormalities, yet modern society could not have developed without war. Modern nation states and medical, information and transportation technologies, for example, are shaped by the exigencies of war. Warfare, of course, is increasingly dependent on complex knowledge and technology. This seminar explores the ways science and technology have affected the strategies, conduct and experience of war, and the key role of war in the development of science and technology. The course will cover the long history of technical knowledge and war, but will primarily focus on the 19 th and 20 th centuries, with a bias first towards Europe and then the United States. This is a Writing Flag seminar course built around carefully chosen readings. I will give very brief lectures most days to provide a historical context for the next class readings. The emphasis will be on discussions of the readings and on crafting well written, tightly argued, and insightful responses to the texts. To improve our writing, we will be editing and responding to each other s work. There are no prerequisites, but knowledge of modern American and European history will be very helpful. Grading Policies Attendance is mandatory. Late assignments will be docked a letter grade per day unless you ask for an extension well before the due date. Grades for the two longer assignments will be partially based on completing the process (e.g. developing research questions, editing rough drafts). Plus/minus grades will be assigned. Students with disabilities may request appropriate academic accommodations from Services for Students with Disabilities: University policies on plagiarism and academic dishonesty will be enforced. 1
2 Assignments With a few exceptions noted on the syllabus, all readings are in the course packet available at Abel s Copies, 715 West 23 rd St. #North. 25% of grade, class participation: Includes attendance, quality of contributions to discussions, evidence of intellectual engagement, completion of in class writing exercises, and performance on reading pop quizzes. 20 % of grade, weekly writing responses: Each week you will write a one page (maximum) critical analysis of a major issue from that week s readings and discussions. Weekly writing responses are due on Mondays (responding to the previous week s readings). You may miss two writing responses without affecting your grade. 20% of grade, review essay 1: The first of two longer writing assignments intended to sharpen your synthetic skill, this essay asks you to explore an important theme from the first half of the course. Your review essay must incorporate at least five readings from the course and should be 7 pages in length. 25% of grade, review essay 2: This final assignment builds upon the skills developed in the first review essay, but requires you to review at least six texts not assigned in the class and should be 10 pages. The texts could go into more depth on a subject covered in the course or be about one of the myriad topics related to science, technology and war that the course does not touch upon. 10% of grade, presentation: The last three days of class, students will present their findings from review essay 2 to the class. Feedback should be useful for refining the final draft of the paper. Alternative research paper (45% of grade): Instead of the two review essays, write one longer piece of original historical research. If multiple students choose this option, we will organize a research writing group. In any case, I will work with students individually to define research questions and develop a research strategy. 2
