!! History HL 2015 ... predictions, guesses and discussion

Bryanbryan2

What you talking about when you say collapse of concensus ?? Seems very niche & vague question to focus on
Cuba also is not a question on its own - may come up in Cold War evolution or in comparison with Korea or Berlin
Cover your bases & don't get stuck on narrow question
Sample Anglo Treaty Q
Anglo Irish treaty could come up as 5/6 different questions
Prepare for a very tough q
Compare role of de Valera to that of Collins ?
Who played a more significant part during neg. Collins or Lylod Geoege?
Led to civil war

Tomorrow I will be a very very happy (and lucky) bunny tomorrow

Seriously though, I'm lost at what to focus on for America 😭

I think Montgomery bus boycotts and in particular Race relations under MLK are very much looking over. Then possibly a joint question on Nixon and Reagan. Economy is also likely to come up, it was in the mocks too..

Predictions for Pursuit of Sovereignty and Nation States and International tensions?

I thought I was the only one doing nation states on this website! It's the hardest to predict - I've covered Russia 1870-1920 (economic/revolutions etc.), New imperialism, Wilhelm II and the causes of WW1.... Hope its enough! Can see them asking for impact of WW1 on economy of society unfortunately

I just have New Imperialism and Bismarck done. Wilhelm i find straight forward just the opposite of Bismarck and the naval race is pretty crucial there too. Might have a look at women in workforce east topic really

-the emergence of counter culture
-multiculturalism

It's actually a lovely question really. I think personally anyways. Yeah I can understand how it would seem very vague but it's never been asked before and my teacher went to a thingy with some guy who talks about the papers and he tipped this so, I dunno. Will be focusing on MLK and race relations as well

allenmac

anyone have any notes on terrance o'neill or mccarthyism?

Parnell usually comes up in some form, so I'd do that. Also maybe 'killing home rule with kindness' and unionism too.

Bryanbryan2

Cuba may come up as a question along with Korea or Berlin - it came up 2010 yes as question to discuss one or all
I would strongly recommend answering a question on all three as there is not sufficient information to cover a full essay just on one of those topics

Welllmade1745

If you guys had to cram one topic each for d and d, politics and society in NI, and division and realignent.??

Chef Tony

Predictions. I'm not saying all of these will come up individually on the exam in each section, but something pretty similar to at least one of them on each topic will show up.

International States and Tensions:

New Imperialism
Franco-German Tensions
Naval Policy


Movements for Political and Social Reform:

Who was more effective in attaining Home Rule? Butt or Parnell
Land Agitation leading to land Reform
Home Rule after Parnell (Dear God I hope not)


Dictatorship and Democracy:

Nazi's rise to power
Life in Nazi Germany
Hitlers Foreign Policy
Lenin and Stalins contribution to Communism

i wonder if students in the future will do essays on today ? : o i bet the same sex marriage referendum will be a case study

KA97

So if I have an essay learned on Stalin's economic policy, show trials etc. then if a question comes up on his contribution to communism, how do I inter corporate it into that question?

Cazz19

Does anyone have any predictions for Nation states and international tension and/or division and realignment? No one on seems to be doing them..

"What impact did Putin's foreign policy have on the outbreak of the third World War"

"What attempts were made in 2020-2032 to attain unification in Ireland"

"What challenges faced the North Korean regime in peace and war, 1980-2018?"

For division and rrealignent my focus is on the oil crisis,youth and Pop culture, and the fall of communism. Along with the main crisi of the Cold War.

If you're looking at Coleraine you're better off also studying Apprentice Boysz they often come up together!

What do ye reckon about what I have studied...

NI: Coleraine/Apprentice Boys, Welfare State, Brookeborough/O'Neill.
D+D: Mussolini, Stalin and Hitler's Foreign Policy.
USA: MBB/MLK/Civil Rights, Post WWII economy and Vietnam.

I feel so unprepared
