Requirement: You have been asked to propose an exciting new 20thCentury World History textbook, one organized along themes rather than simply by chronology. Provide a brief (1500 words) overview of yourproposed textbook and the two or three themes you would use to organize it around and why. What would be the most important events or phenomena in your proposed book? How would you “periodize’ it (most books use the first and second World War as the most important events)? How would it draw in diverse peoples and regions?What kind of changes would it describe? You might choose, from among many possible themes: War, revolutions, globalization, technology, the environment, rights, empires, movement (of things, of people), the rise of the nation state, or some other phenomenon.
