HH2001 Singapore: The Making of a Cosmopolitan City-State
Current offering: AY2026/2027 Semester 2
This course focuses on the history of Singapore in the regional and global contexts. It will discuss various factors--institutional, cultural, socio-political and international-that have shaped the trajectory of Singapore over the past seven decades. The successful story of Singapore's economic development will be understood within the domestic multi-ethnic mosaic and complex regional relationships. It is the interplay of these forces that underscores the emergence and challenges of a cosmopolitan global city-state with an emerging national identity.
