This discussion forum has two objectives: (i) stimulate thinking about historical skills; (ii) ) generate informed discussion about section five topics. You are advised to complete the following reading before you attempt to participate in the discussion board:
Tindall, George Brown, and David E Shi. America. Print., Ch. 26. The Rise of Fascism in Europe p. 1152-1172.
You should cite the text in your substantive contributions to the discussion questions, together with other resources that you are referred to, and any other quality academic sources that you wish to adduce in support of your postings. A “substantive contribution” is written in formal academic style (with citations) and makes an original contribution to the discussion by engaging with the views of other students and the academic literature on the subject.
Question: Compare and contrast the rise to power, exercise of authority, and move towards war of the European dictators before and during the Second World War, and give reasons for their successes and failures.
