lmaooo i feel like that’s pretty convincing! i had a reverse translation problem for P&A where i could not for the life of me remember what kammer was in english (it’s chamber) so i was like uhhhh yeah so the Reichskulturkammer did this and that und ja

Oh true I forgot to use German terms other than the standard lebensraum and grossdeutschland in power and authority

what did people write about for the russia power struggle question and the indochina one on antiwar movements

i talked about the main reasons for the anti war movements in the usa and australia (conscription, the changing access of the media, frustrations with the focus of the government)and i also talked about how it changed after the tet offensive and how that gave the movement like new reasons in a way? i talked about the similarities between the two movements too

What’d you write for the 12 marker?

Wish I could tell ya! only things i remember writing were my two essays

 

[cheerios435435]

i did conflicting ideologies (permanent revolution vs socialism in one country), Stalins opportunism and political manouevring and then one on manipulating changing alliances do you think this works

 

[cheerios435435]

also do people think the band 6 cutoff will be higher or lower this yr

i think it might be just slightly lower. the last question for core was a bit challenging imo. the people in my cohort wouldve struggled with it so that might alter my view

personally I don’t think purges are relevant because it’s the causes of the power struggle not the outcome

One could only bloody pray

not that it matters now, but it was from 1935 - so pretty much what i did was the first 3 points of collapse of collective security, appeasement and nazi-soviet non-aggression pact + other events in the war

i did the other 2 but not nazi soviet pact, is it still fine u reckon??

 

[Bananananana!!!]

Stupid Russia question got me messed up for foreign policy but rest was easy dubs

 

[karamazova]

what did people write about for the russia power struggle question and the indochina one on antiwar movements

for russia i wrote that competing visions for the party and the ussr were responsible for the power struggle that emerged:

- how differing visions for party (including bureaucratism and party membership) led to a struggle for leadership
- how differing visions for the political policies of the ussr (including interpretations of marxism-leninism, permanent revolution vs socialism in one country) led to a struggle for power
- how differing economic visions (predominantly continuation of the nep vs rapid industrialisation) led to the power struggle
- how differing visions for soviet society (dekulakisation and such) led to the power struggle

IDK i know it’s a simple argument but i think it really answers the question so i’m happy w it

i did the other indochina question but when i was considering answering the anti-war q the only things i could come up with were the social/human, economic/financial strain the war were taking on american population

 

[beanbug]

that exam was beautiful oh my goodness the essay questions for china???? so easy to answer. essay questions for indochina??? easy to answer as well. core? bit unexpected but it happens

 

[utopianimal]

personally I don’t think purges are relevant because it’s the causes of the power struggle not the outcome

what was ur thesis cos the question was a bit weirdly worded, mine was that the power stryggle emerged due to trotsky and stalins differing visions and their individual ambitions for power
