    Hi Iris. If the chapters in your version of the book do not match the chapters in the current edition, you have probably by now figured out how to map them correctly to the content areas described in the Modules. At the top of each Module, there is a summary of the reading for the week by chapter number and content/title. For example, Module 10 indicates: Ch 22 (End of Empire), Ch 23 (Capitalism & Culture). Please compare your version of the textbook to these content areas so that you can complete Module 10.

Chapter 23

 In what way(s) do you see the historical developments described in this chapter continuing to evolve in our world today? Make a separate blog post for each chapter.  Globalization has heightened since 1945 in today's world. After World War II, the United States worked hard to not fall into an economy much like the Depression-era. The world's economy continues to transform and repeat behaviors in history, only to get the same results it seems. Factors such as feminism, capitalism, environmentalism, fundamentalism, global modernity display the impacts of capitalism and culture in our world. Working backward until now - In 1945, the UN, World Bank, and International Monetary Fund was established. In the 1960's there was a rise in feminism, and the Six-day Arab-Israeli war happened. In the 1970's Greenpeace was established, and the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women was adopted by the United Nations and created the Iranian revolutio...

Big History

I was intrigued by the many facts of history dated back to 14 billion years ago to now and looking in the future on the Big History Project website,  https://www.bighistoryproject.com/home . Bill Gates is one the founders of this project which I am not surprised since he is brilliant, resourceful, and is dedicated to making a difference in our world. Big History is broken into 8 different groups called thresholds, 1) Big bang 2) Star formation 3) New chemical elements 4) New Earth & solar system. 5) Life on earth 6) Collective learning 7) Agriculture 8) Modern revolution. I had only heard of a couple of thresholds individually and did not realize they were all tied together in the Big History Project. It is mindblowing to see all of the correlations of all of the thresholds and how they each made an impact in this world. All of the information found on this project is very valuable. The Goldilocks Theory of, too hot, too cold, and just right is simple and genius. It would take ...
