This historical research guide provides students and their
teachers with 600 term paper ideas and cites more than a thousand
print and nonprint sources on the 100 most important events that
have shaped 20th-century world history. Organized in chronological
order, the guide features entries on key events in Europe, Africa,
the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America that are covered in the
world history curriculum in secondary schools and colleges. From
the 1905 revolution in Russia to the Chinese economy at the end of
the 20th century, a wide range of political, economic, social, and
cultural events are included. Each entry consists of a capsule
description of the event, followed by six specific suggestions for
research papers about the event, and a wide-ranging annotated
bibliography of books, articles, videos, and web sites appropriate
for student research.
In every case the emphasis is on recent and up-to-date material,
as well as landmark works and primary sources. Dozens of
recommended web sites and videos are included. This work has been
designed to fulfill the assignments in the world history
curriculum. Term paper ideas offer students thought-provoking
suggestions that are challenging and develop critical thinking
skills. The annotated bibliography is organized into primary and
secondary sources. This unique guide is valuable not only to
students but to teachers and librarians who guide students in
research and is an excellent purchasing guide for librarians who
serve student needs.
