Titel 7 Authoritarian states 20th Century

Focus: Topic 10 for Paper 2: Authoritarian States (20th Century).

This topic focuses on the factors that led to the emergence of authoritarian states in the 20th Century, the methods they used to consolidate and maintain power, and the impact of their policies.

Titel 9 The Cold War: Superpower tensions and rivals

Topic 12: The Cold War: Superpower tensions and rivalries

Paper 2

This topic is divided into three themes:

Theme 3: Rivalry, mistrust and accord
This takes a chronological approach to the events of the Cold War from the breakdown of the Grand Alliance, the shift of the Cold War to Asia, peaceful co-existence and detente through to the collapse of the Cold War.

Theme 2: Leaders and nations
This theme asks students to look at the impact of two leaders from different regions on the course and development of the Cold War and how two countries from different regions were affected.
- We have, among others, looked at the impact of the following leaders:
* USA: Harry S. Truman (USA), Dwight D. Eisenhower (USA), J.F. Kennedy (USA), and Richard M. Nixon (USA).
* USSR: Josef Stalin (USSR), Nikita Khruschev (USSR), Leonid Bresjnev (USSR), and Mikhail Gorbatjov (USSR)
* China: Mao Zedong (People's Republic of China)

* Guatemala during the Cold War.
* Vietnam and the Cold War.

Theme 3: Cold War crises
