Week of March 23-27 assignments

Monday, 3/23 -

In your notebook, create a 3-column chart that uses the entire page. In fact, you will probably need to extend it to the next page too, as we will be adding to it over time.

• • Title of the chart - IDEOLOGIES (-ism's)

  • First column - IDEOLOGY

  • Second column - definition

  • Third column - historical examples (people and/or places)

In the first column, here are the first few "-ism's" to add - go ahead and define them in the second column. You already have a deep definition for mercantilism in your notebook (the Frayer Model). Leave space for your definitions and examples (maybe 2-4 lines for each ideology)

• 1. mercantilism

  2. colonialism

  3. capitalism

  4. socialism

Now add examples in the third column.

What nations can you provide in the third column that used mercantilism as an economic policy?

What nations do you know practiced colonialism, and where were their colonies?

Who's philosophy is now known as capitalism, and who should we associate with socialism? (capitalism, see your notes on Enlightenment philosophes; socialism, see p. 685-686)

(Mon continued) -

Now read "The Emergence of Ideologies: Conservatism and Liberalism" p. 653-656 (up to "The Consolidation of National States in Europe)

Add 5. conservatism and 6. liberalism to your chart!

Define any people or terms from p. 653-656 (such as Cady Elizabeth Stanton) in your notes on another page.

Tuesday, 3/24 -

Read "The Consolidation of National States in Europe", p. 656-663. Answer these focus questions in your notebook:

• How did wartime experiences change the way peoples of Europe saw themselves?

• How does the book define "nation" (in italics, p. 657). How did this concept of "nation" differ from how individuals associated themselves before this time?

• What fueled ideologies of nationalism?

• Read the subsections "Cultural Nationalism" and "Political Nationalism". Compare them in a T-Chart in your notebook. Include von Herder and Mazzini in your T-Chart in the appropriate section and define who they are.

• What is Zionism, and how is it a form of nationalism? Continue reading onto p. 658 - who was Theodor Herzl and how did he influence the Zionist movement?

• Define anti-Semitism. What places was anti-Semitism most visible, and how? (ex: Russia and Russian-controlled Poland, persecution of Jews climaxed in a series of pograms).

• In the section, "The Emergence of National Communities", what was the Congress of Vienna, and why was it created? Who was Klemens von Metternich and how did his efforts affect Napoleon's empire? Was the Congress of Vienna successful, and why or why not?

• In the section, "Nationalist Rebellions", begin creating a list of rebellions and uprisings, and their dates and outcomes. Not all uprisings and examples have as much information as the first example (below) on p. 659.

  • Ex: Greece (Balkan Peninsula) 1821 - sought independence from the Ottoman Turks; rebels overcame Ottoman forces with help of Britain, France and Russia and won Greek independence in 1830.

• Look up and define the term "unification" (you can use a dictionary). How can "unification" be a form of nationalism?

• Look up and define "annexation" (political definition).

• Look at the map of Italy on p. 662 - Read the key, and look carefully at the map, the way we do in class. How many areas are shown on the map as distinct kingdoms or areas of annexation (different colors...)? Name the areas on the map IN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS)

• Look at the map of Germany on p. 663- Read the key, and look carefully at the map. Name the colored territories or areas on the map (look for places IN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS to name).

• Read the section on "The Unifications of Italy and Germany". Compare Italy and Germany - who led the unification process? Were they both successful in unifying to become one nation?

Wednesday, 3/25

Go back into your notebook and look for the Frayer models we created for the terms "salad" (the example), "mercantilism", and "revolution". Look over how the Frayer model is set up (definition, characteristics, examples and non-examples).

Now create a new Frayer model in your notebook. Be sure to leave plenty of space to go back and add on to your Ideologies list we started yesterday. We will probably have as many as 20 total if that helps plan your space).

The new Frayer model will be with the term "Nationalism".

Watch the Crash Course video on Nationalism embedded at the top of this column. (if you prefer to find it on youtube, it is easy to find).

Thinking back over what you read yesterday, and what you saw in the video, complete the Frayer model. I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO WORK WITH A FRIEND ON FACETIME! Discuss it! This is an important concept!

We have built up the Ottoman Empire from its beginnings in 1453, as it replaces the Byzantine Empire and changes Constantinople to Istanbul, and the power of the Ottomans in contrast to the other two Islamic Empires (Safavid and Mughal).

Now let's read about how the Ottoman Empire begins to fall apart!

Read "The Ottoman Empire in Decline" p. 722-727.

• • What were the military problems and losses, including defeats, and the Janissaries?

  • What were the specific losses in Ottoman territories - groups or nations that pulled away and won independence from the Ottoman Empire?

  • What were the economic problems the Ottoman Empire was suffering?

  • What are reforms (look it up and define it).

  • Who were Sultan Selim III and Mahmud II, and and what were their ideas for reform? Were they successful?
