本课程将探讨自第二次世界大战结束以来美国人如何面对能源挑战。从20世纪70年代开始,美国人担心能源供应。随着美国石油产量的下降,美国是否能够获得足够的燃料来维持其高消费的生活方式?与此同时,美国人也开始担心能源使用对环境的影响。即使美国有足够的化石燃料,它的消费是否会对健康和安全产生不利影响?本课程探讨美国人在过去半个世纪中如何思考这些问题。我们将考虑能源危机的政治,外交,经济,文化和技术方面。主题包括核电,郊区化和新的汽车文化,环境运动和清洁能源的挑战,中东和石油供应,20世纪70年代的能源危机以及全球变暖。
课程简介: This course will explore how Americans have confronted energy challenges since the end of World War II. Beginning in the 1970s, Americans worried about the supply of energy. As American production of oil declined, would the US be able to secure enough fuel to sustain their high consumption lifestyles? At the same time, Americans also began to fear the environmental side affects of energy use. Even if the US had enough fossil fuel, would its consumption be detrimental to health and safety? This class examines how Americans thought about these questions in the last half-century. We will consider the political, diplomatic, economic, cultural, and technological aspects of the energy crisis. Topics include nuclear power, suburbanization and the new car culture, the environmental movement and the challenges of clean energy, the Middle East and supply of oil, the energy crisis of the 1970s, and global warming.
