Earlier in this lesson, you examined four themes related to the history of the world since 1917:
• Unresolved global conflicts
• Decolonization and nationalism after World War II
• Human rights and civil rights: working toward social justice
• Globalization
You will now write a two- or three-paragraph journal entry describing how each of these themes applies to situations in the world today. Identify at least one current problem that fits each theme and explain how an understanding of these themes may help with finding a solution to that problem.
