Communism: Its Ideology, Its History, and Its Legacy
Purchase options and add-ons
Communism: Its Ideology, Its History, and Its Legacy is a supplementary high school curricular resource developed by teachers for teachers. It is offered to help fill the knowledge gap about communism and its enormous impact on world history, past and present. Written with both social studies and common standards in mind, each of the lessons focuses on key individuals and events in the history of communism and its victims. A background essay presents essential content, while student-centered activities and assessment options offer a wide variety of opportunities for students to demonstrate their understanding of the global impact of communism. Each lesson features a C3 section, Communism’s Contemporary Connection, focusing attention on today’s Communist states. All lessons include vetted online resources that provide multiple opportunities for further research and study.
It is our hope and goal that the lessons of Communism: Its Ideology, Its History, and Its Legacy will inspire and guide student discussion of such issues as: What are the key tenets of Marxism-Leninism? Who was responsible for the outbreak of the Cold War—the Soviet Union or the United States? Why did the United States fight the Korean War and the Vietnam War? Why did the Berlin Wall fall? And how is communism fundamentally different from representative democracy?
We are pleased to provide teachers with an educational resource that will help students—the nation’s future leaders—study and understand a critical part of world history that is ongoing, and draw valuable lessons for the future.
