Awaiting #Brexit Countdown Clock to Brexit

1/31/2020

watching the countdown to Brexit and the beginning of the end of the World War II (and certainly post 1991) liberal political order.

from here on in it will be something different - can it be put back together once the Boomers die out? IDK. but all it took was for the generation who made the political alliances to die out for the entire system to turn to quicksand.

will europe break up
more wars in more places
civil wars in places that havent know it
wars of conquest once thought impossible
nationalism
racism

will it be the 19th century again? the 17th?

Will anyone try to tame capitalism before it breaks more societies? IDK

HIS 102

Added pdfs for Age of Revolutions, Industrial Revolution, Imperialism.

Because of the length of some lectures, I have designated two pdf powerpoints (Americas and Africa) as background HIS 101 material. They are useful in knowing what will happen happen in "Trauma of the New World" lecture but they are HIS 101 - Ancient World Lectures and so would be redundant here.

HIS 102 students can find their lectures notes HERE

Welcome back everyone to Spring Semester at Camden County College.

Going to be a big semester.
New Video lectures, New Audio Podcasts, Mayhaps an Interview Series
Academic Articles, Conference Presentations, and maybe a book(?!)

I have been using my schools digital content management systems for the last few years and have let my personal sites suffer. But we're back. and so this site is going to slowly fill out over the next few weeks. And then once we're up to speed, we'll start adding old materials and creating new stuff.

Good Luck
Be Safe
Have a good semester!
