For those of you who live in the Portland, Oregon area, I’m writing to recommend Dr. Evguenia Davidova’s spring class, “The European Union.” This is a thoughtfully designed face to face class with wonderful readings, as you can see from the book covers below; just looking at the reading list makes me want to join. Please see the details here:
INTL 452: The European Union
Evguenia Davidova
Mon/Wed 8:15 – 10:05

The course deals with the history of the European Union and focuses on dramatic current developments, such as:
- Brexit
- The recent migration crisis
- Catalonia/Catalunya’s bid for independence
- Greece’s financial crisis
- Expansion of populist parties in the EU countries
- The New EU members from the former Eastern Bloc
The readings include essays by British immigrants, a memoir from the former East Germany, and a critical history of the European Union.
