Unit 4: The Interdependent Community of the Eastern Hemisphere

Note: Important documents, videos and other documents will be added to our class calendar as the Unit progresses.

This final unit of year is all about how countries work together to solve problems, or, not. We will look at International organizations like the United Nations and Red Cross/Crescent and explore how these international organizations work. We will discuss how countries might be able to sway another nation's stance on an issue by the use of military, economic or cultural influence. And finally we look at some conflicts around the world and how we might be able to solve them.
