China...What should the US do?
 
  1. To begin this project, you will need to decide which tactic the US should use when dealing with China's economic, political, and military growth on the world stage.  To help you choose which tactic the US should employ, examine the detailed descriptions on a document titled "Options in Brief."  click here 



  2. The second step in this project is to examine some propaganda poster from China, Cuba, and the Soviet Union.  Browse the posters displayed on the website for the International Institute of Social History and compare them for effectiveness...do the pictures and slogans seem to convey the message?  Choose one poster to use as a model that will help you design your own propaganda poster.
