Links that could be useful for teaching Modern World History

For now, a page under construction for me to file away links that I find useful, perhaps to integrate into pages for individual lecture topics.

General (back to top)

• Conservapedia's World History Lectures, from a US conservative (meaning fundamentalist Christian, as far as I can tell) point of view. They were first posted in January 2007 by Andrew Schlafly, who teaches classes[?] for homeschooled students. Interesting that they are, although begun by one instructor (), potentially collectively authored, on the wiki model.
  • Lecture 9: Revolutions in the 1700s and 1800s
  • Lecture 10: The Industrial Revolution and Imperialism
  • Lecture 11: World War I, Communism, the Great Depression
  • Lecture 12: Fascism, World War II, Cold War, Korea
  • Lecture 13: Regional Conflicts, Decolonization, 1960-1990s

India, Southwest Asia [back to top]

• Elizabeth Gould and Paul Fitzgerald, Invisible History: Afghanistan's Untold Story (2009)
  • $ at amazon
  • Tikkun, May 2009: "Thirty years in the making, this deeply researched book is bursting with overlooked facts and unauthorized insights."
