The New Crusade? Intro to the Post-Communist World
As we begin our look into the Post-Communist World, we need to start with the basics in this three part intro assignment:
Part One:
In Groups, Access the constitutions of current day Russia and China and create a compare/contrast chart with the U.S. Constitution. List and explain a minimum of 5 comparisons and 5 contrastings observations. (similar to what we did for Great Britain).
Russia:

Part Two:
Read and highlight the first two Chapters of the Communist Manifesto by Marx and Engels.

Part Three:
You will write an "I am not a Marxist" essay from the eyes of three leading Communist leaders. I will explain (more explanation later).
