Curry F(l)avour (coincidentally, I'm having curry for dinner)

Today in class we watched two short review videos, one on the Boxer Rebellion and the other on the Russo-Japanese war. We then moved into a round-desk discussion of our homework questions. Following that, we began reading about China's resurgence.

Tonight's homework:

Read from where we left off on page 103 to page 112 (Global Forces), omitting the case studies and biography. After that, answer the rest of the questions on pages 112-113. Remember, homework needs to be on paper.


Amy and Nathan, your oral reports are due Thursday.

Hey guys this is Brian's post, sorry for being late I just got home

For homework, complete questions #1-8 on page 112, and #1,2 on page 113 (critical analysis) based on the reading mentioned above.
