I love reasons for Liberal reforms, I caress with pleasure the assessment of Liberal reforms, but I find the Labour essay quite repugnant. I really hope that one of the former two appear, along with, for Russia, why the Reds won the Civil War, or the reasons for the 1905 revolution. If issues 4 & 6 appear I will achieve optimum peace of mind.

For reasons for liberal reforms, how do you criticise them? What were the problems etc?

Problems with the reasons for the reforms? We weren't taught to criticise them. Our argument is whether the internal or external pressures were more significant. You could argue that the fear of Labour pressure was selfish

I'm with you for reasons for 1905 revolution, not civil war. As long as reasons for 1905 come up I'm okay, would possibly manage a power of Tsar between 1905-14 essay, that's about it. Russia can SMD.

Oh, sorry. Could you explain what the internal and external pressures were? We never covered this...oh dear!

It's not how I was taught to deal with that essay, so it might just be different wording.

My paragraphs are -

- Proof the old system was failing

- a quest for national security and national efficiency

- the investigations by Booth and Rowntree (one by Mayhew too, I did it for my extended essay, but most people just focus on the former two)

- political change (liberal split and rise of labour)

Yee, that's the same content as mine; we just group together 1,3,4 as internal and 2 as external in terms of their positioning in the essay

[Melancholymelody]

Does anyone know good sites for the American topic other than bitesize? I'm focusuing mostly on Civil rights and Immigration since I've never done a depression essay do you think that's a little risky?

[SazzyJazzyApple]

Totally stressing as the exam is in 2 days. So only tomorrow left to revise and the information is just not staying in my head at all!!!
Anyone have any tips on how to remember essays and source info that they could perhaps share?
It would be most appreciated. Sarah xx

it would be an answer to prayer for me if the pillars of autocracy essay comes up, even though its come up the last like 4 years... or reasons for bolshevik success would be awesome. Gonna try and get a solid plan for feb/march though. I'm screwed basically.

I wouldn't mind pillars of autocracy! I can't do either of the 1917 revolutions or the civil war! Surely they wouldn't put those three together? :-/

i really don't know, i think one revolution is possible? i'd need to look for trends :/ i REALLY want pillars because i've written it tons and gotten 18, and my extended essay was the october revolution, i probably couldn't do the civil war one:/

Doing Britain 1858-1951 and Appeasement and the Road to War. Learning Why Liberals, what democracy and Women as the first 2 are bound to come up and learning why appeasement, fascist foreign policy and how successful appeasement. Scared for the latter as the two I'm learning cam up last year but my teacher is confident how successful will show up.

Do you have any for Nazi State and the early growth of nationalism essays? Much appreciated.

Yeah sure
Issue 1 (why did nationalism spread):
(definition of nationalism) : 'nationalism is the devotion to the interests or cultures of ones nation'
Johann Fitche said 'those who speak the same language are joined together by a multitude of invisible bonds'
Metternich said 'keep the dark, evil forces of revolution away from us' about the students who spread ideas
? said 'the Carlsbad decrees certainly succeeded in keeping Germany quiet'
The zollervein was described as 'the mighty lever of German unification'
'even in 1815 there were tens of thousands of people..who felt..that Germans deserved a homeland'

Issue 2 (how much had it spread) I use some of the above and
Metternich said 'austria is on the point of seeing herself...excluded from the rest of Germany'
? Said 'for most people, life went on as usual'

Issue 6 (nazi state)
David welch said 'much of hitlers popularity..rested on..foreign policy'
? Said 'if nothing else, dictatorships make good police'
? Said 'anti-semitism was not only the core, but also the focal point for the feelings of aggression'

Hope these help, if you don't understand what context youd use any in just say oh and btw when I write '..' I've cut a piece out so I'm not using the full quote

Thanks Would these gain me more analysis marks then combined with my own analysis?

[UMARTIAN]

Im focusing on Liberals and Germany. I can do 2 essays for each but im scared they wont come up.

Im going to skim over democracy too just in case.

[..lauren]

I'm doing appeasement and the road to war for unit2, which I quite like and it's pretty straight forward. However, for unit 1 we were only taught the essays for Liberals and Labour, and no one even mentioned that we might not get a question and so will need democracy! aaaa freaking out.
Also, we were left to self teach paper2. What an incompetent department.
Oh well, I'm still hoping for an A. It'll be fine if it goes as well as the prelim.
