George S. Vascik, Ph.D.

I have taught since 1992 at the Hamilton campus of Miami University - a Public Ivy - where I am currently a member of the Humanities and Creative Arts faculty. My research focus is German political and economic history, while I have taught undergraduate and graduate classes on Western and World Civilization and Modern European History. By training, I am a Rankean traditionalist following in the footsteps of Hans Rosenburg and Gerald Feldman. That said, I am very taken with new approaches in the social sciences and have integrated GIS into my analysis of German rural society and politics.
