I’m working on a history project and need support to help me study.
For you second essay you will consider the topics of imperialism, resistance, and independence. Based upon the course readings you will write a 4-page essay that describes the rise of anti-imperialist and nationalist movements in Africa and/or Asia during the interwar period. Then, the essay should evaluate the anti-colonial movements of the post-World War II era and explain their successes. Lastly, evaluate the contemporary successes of these movements. You may choose to focus on one region or do a more comprehensive evaluation of the interwar period anti-imperialist and nationalist movements along with the results of these after World War II.
When thinking about how to write your essay remember that a well written paper includes:
– An introduction with a clear thesis statement (argument) that is underlined (see more on how to write a thesis statement here (链接到外部网站。)) and a conclusion summing up your findings and argument.
