Global Impact of the rise of the West–(1) free market economies and global capitalism, (2) representative government, (3) industrialism, (4) global warming, (5) racism, (6) region conflicts (such as Israel/Palestine, India/Pakistan tensions, border disputes and ethnic tensions in Africa since 1960). Each CNN team will be assigned a topic, 1-6. You and your partner must research and then present for 5 minutes in class or create a 5 minute youtube video re: your topic–send me the link to your video ASAP. Results from your group research should be reflected on your own Impact Chart; you can then borrow information from the other groups so that your Impact Chart reflects ALL 6 of these areas above.
