Examine the humanities by putting them into their social, cultural, political, and economic contexts. Examine the divergent responses of different societies to challenges in the past and present. Understand the evolution of the arts and literature around the world within their socio-economic, political, and cultural frameworks; and explore how and why our notions of ethical and legal systems, as well as their applications, have changed and continue to change in response to new ideas about the role of individuals and institutions in society.
