Hist12: Notes from Tuesday, 22 Feb

Today I collected the colourized propaganda posters - they look very well done.  Next we read the intro to a chapter titled "Politics Old and New" from Howarth's The World Since 1900.  We noted how the growing class consciousness that existed at the turn of the last century helped to shift, or at least awaken changes to, the balance of power in the "Western" world.

Next we viewed an introductory PPT that identified some of the main vocabulary terms associated with communism and then completed the definitions on Ex #13.  Please finish Ex #13 for homework.  Also, please read pp 35-40 in DeMarco.

Tomorrow we fill finish our introductory notes on Marxism and start to look at the "first" Russian revolution.
