Desc:A VIEW FROM THE BARRACKS: Armies tend to mirror the societies that produce them. Privileged groups and classes generally serve as officers and escape dangerous service on the frontlines. This seminar explores the social implications of military service and the use of armed force by both private groups and states in African history. The course covers African military institutions in the pre-colonial, colonial, and modern eras, and focuses on the creation, employment and influence of African soldiers. PREREQUISITE: NONE. Modern, Africa. This section is crosslisted with L90 3013.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
