For its correct understanding, this subject requires the reading of the bibliography that will be indicated in the classroom, as well as an elementary knowledge of basic concepts of historical vocabulary (state, nation, anarchism, liberalism, socialism, etc.) and of the spatio-temporal coordinates of matter.
The subject aims to provide students with an approach that allows them to think historically about the social, cultural and political problems of the present time. In this context, a historical approach will be made to the great themes of the “long” XX century: the birth of the mass society, the political and social economic articulation of this society, the transformations of the states, the center–periphery dynamics in their different perspectives, the great conflicts of the century, etc.
The final objective of the subject is that students acquire a solid historical perspective of issues that they will have to address during the degree studies.

The final evaluation will be the result of adding three evaluation activities.
1. In the middle of the semester an exam will be carried out based on the analysis of materials announced by the teacher. The list of materials will be provided to the students during the teaching period. This exam will represent 20% of the final grade.
2. In the middle of the semester an analysis work will be carried out on some type of material that the teacher will post in the Campus Virtual. It will be the practical part. This work will represent 30% of the final grade.
3. At the end of the semester there will be an exam on the topics taught during the course, either in the classroom, posted on the Campus Virtual or through the readings. This exam will represent 50% of the final grade.
In order to pass the subject, the student must obtain 5 by adding the marks of the three parts/exams (partial exam on the materials, practical part and exam on the contents taught during the course).
If the total of the three parts/exams is between 3'5 and 4'9, a remedial exam can be taken to pass the subject.
REMEDIAL EXAM
They can take the remedial exam only those students who:
a) Having done the exams and the practical part, they don’t reach the final grade of 5.
b) The remedial exam is not to improve the grade. It only serves for those students who need it to reach a final grade of 5.
FINAL GRADE
It will be the result of the sum of the grades of the partial exam (20%), the practical part (30%) and the exam (50%).
In case of taking the remedial exam, it will be from a final exam on all the topics taughts during the course.
NO EVALUABLE
Students who have not submitted to a minimum of two evaluation activities will be classified as "No evaluable" (Not Assessable)
