Today we discussed how Vladimir Lenin began transforming Russia after the Russian Revolution in 1917. We discussed how he instituted a policy with a mix of capitalism and communism (New Economic Policy) in order to stabilize the war-torn economy. When Lenin died, the newly formed Soviet Union was passed down to Josef Stalin (his general secretary).
For homework, you are to read pp. 874-879 in your textbook and fill in the graphic organizer that I handed out at the end of class. We will be starting World War II during next class.
Have a great weekend and congratulations to the dancers for a fantastic show!
