You will have to analyze one document. The document will be one of the following from the textbook.
Page 647: Preamble to the U.S. Constitution
Page 660: Maximilien Robespierre document
Page 662: Thomas Paine document
Page 665: Napoleon document
Page 884: Mao Zedong document
Page 892: Mohandas K. Gandhi document
You will need to evaluate the source. Using the SOAPSTONE method is a good idea (click here for a review of the SOAPSTONE method). Also, you should be able to put the document in its historical context (time, place, culture, and its significance). Finally, you should know how the document relates to the concept of nationalism.
You will write an essay in which you compare and contrast the development of nationalism in two of the countries that we have studied. You may bring in one notecard with 5 quotes on it to use as evidence in the essay.
