Social 30-1
We polished off the last of the "Evolution of Modern Liberalism" PowerPoint lecture and then we covered how supply-side and demand-side economics deals with a recession, and then we moved on to Russian history. I started showing a video from the BBC 20th Century History series called "Stalin and the Modernization of Russia". The video was interrupted by the fire drill, so we'll have to finish it off on Friday.
