About this UnitThis unit examines the relationship between social change, ideology and politics in twentieth-century Europe. Three competing ideologies from 1900 are examined, authoritarianism, liberalism and socialism. With a special focus on the period 1914 to 1945, the unit examines the interaction between these ideologies and the polarization of politics through the major social upheavals of the period. Case studies will be drawn from the history of Britain, Germany, Russia, Italy, France and Spain in the twentieth century.
