April 3

We watched a short video called "Stalin and Russia's Modernization" at the beginning of class today. I then gave you a booklet called "Economic Planning in the USSR" which is due tomorrow; you had most of class period to finish this, so hopefully you have no homework tonight.


I was able to finish the presentation "Foundations of Economic Globalization" which I started on Tuesday. I will be sending this presentation to you tonight. If you haven't already read Chapter 10 in Perspectives on Globalization, you probably should tonight, it will help you to understand the presentation even more.

Please print this presentation off tonight, with 4 slides per page. Also, please remember that you should print the following slide off on a piece of paper of its own (full size).
