Greetings to you in Council Bluffs, Iowa!
We continued looking at the
Paris Peace Conference and the major issues dealt with by the negotiators, namely, disarmament, a new map for Europe, war debts and reparations. We started watching the film
"Paris 1919" today, and we will finish this film tomorrow. This film should have reviewed the major players at the Paris Peace Conference and their motivations and national interests at the conference. The following is for homework tonight and is due tomorrow:
- Source Analysis on page 18 (Questions 1-2) in 20th Century World History (see below)
- TOK Link page 19 (you can find a copy of Wilson's Fourteen Points on the wiki, or linked here on the blog)
- Source Analysis on page 22-23 (all Sources A-D, all questions)
We looked at the issue of Kosovo's independence by watching a short video from the CBC News in Review series. Please have a look at this link from The Guardian on the break up of the former Yugoslavia. Please remember that your
Chapter 7-8 Test is on Thursday,

I collected 10 Questions About Democracy, and we discussed the results of the Political Compass survey. We continued looking at Unit 3 material by looking at the two main types of representative democracy that we will be looking this semester: parliamentary democracy and presidential democracy. Your
