Interwar Assignment:
Write a single-spaced, two page essay discussing how different societies addressed either economic or gender concerns during the interwar period. You must quote from four of the documents listed below; remember to situate the documents and your analysis within the history presented in class lectures and texts. Finally, quotes must come from the text itself, not its introduction, for full credit. Additionally, you need to cite from two of the secondary source articles (“The New Nazi Society,” “The Socialist Experiment” and “The Fascist Challenge”). If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me.
