■ Connections to Today
Record the answers to the questions below on your Concept Connector worksheets. In addition, record information
from this chapter about the following concepts:
• Cooperation: United Nations
• Conflict: World War II
• Technology: Nuclear Power

Democracy During World War II, the United States government interned Japanese Americans in camps, citing security
concerns. This was a curtailment of American citizens’ individual rights. Do you think such actions are ever justified by a
democratic government? Why or why not?
Cumulative Review
Jewish Migration to Israel
Genocide What was the Holocaust? Compare the Holocaust to the Armenian genocide carried out by the Ottoman
Turks. How were they similar and different? Consider:
• nation-building and nationalism
• murder of minority leaders
• large-scale deportations
• systematic torture and murder
• use of concentration camps

Conflict: The Arab-Israeli Conflict Partly in response to
the horrors of the Holocaust, the United Nations created a plan
to divide Palestine into two states—one Arab and one Jewish.
Jews accepted the plan, but Arabs rejected it. When the Jewish
state of Israel was born in 1948, the surrounding Arab countries invaded Israel. Between 1956 and 1973, three more wars
erupted between Israel and Arab states. Conflict between
Arabs and Israelis continued into the early 2000s despite many
attempts at peace. What historical reasons did the United
Nations have for creating a Jewish state in Palestine?

Cooperation: The United Nations Is Established
Fifty nations met in April 1945 to draft a charter for the
United Nations. Today, the UN’s work goes far beyond peacekeeping to include economic development, disease prevention, and refugee protection. Conduct research and write two
paragraphs about a program sponsored by the UN in the last
five years.

1. Students should give reasons for their
position on the question of whether
democratic governments are justified in
curtailing the rights of citizens. For
example, they might argue that the
curtailment of certain rights is a way to
better protect the majority of citizens.
2. Students should describe the Holocaust
and compare it to the Armenian genocide in light of the factors highlighted
in the question.
3. Students should carry out research and
reach conclusions comparing medical
advances in the treatment of wounded
men during WWII to the discoveries of
Louis Pasteur.
Connections to Today
1. Responses should recognize the desire
of the world community to provide a
homeland for Jews after the horrors of
the Holocaust.

2. Paragraphs should summarize the
activities of one of the UN’s programs
in the last five years. Some examples
might include UN involvement in Bosnia or Rwanda.

Document-Based Assessment
Document A
“It was believed with deep apprehension that many thousands,
probably tens of thousands, of lives of Allied combatants would
have been spent in the continuation of our air and sea bombardment and blockade. . . . But the people who would have suffered
most, had the war gone on much longer and their country
invaded, were the Japanese. One American incendiary air raid on
the Tokyo area in March 1945 did more damage and killed and
injured more Japanese than the bomb on Hiroshima.“
—From The Atomic Bomb and the End
of World War II by Herbert Feis
To help students understand the documents on this page, give them the following TIP: Analyze each of the
points made in the documents
arguing for and against the use of
the bomb by writing down the main
fact or reason each author presents
and judging how important and
persuasive you think it is.

“Even without the use of the atomic bombs, the war would probably have ended before an American invasion of Kyushu [one of
the four main islands of Japan] became necessary. Conditions in
Japan were steadily deteriorating . . . The destruction of cities
from B-29 raids, diminishing food supplies, [and] decreased public morale fostered enough discontent to worry the emperor and
his advisors. . . . Even without the atomic attacks, it seems likely
that the emperor at some point would have acted in the same
way that he did in the aftermath of Hiroshima to end the war.“
■
In the spring of 1945, the Allies’ island-hopping campaign in the
Pacific brought them closer to the heart of Japan. When American
troops invaded first the island of Iwo Jima, then the island of Okinawa, the Japanese fought fiercely, but unsuccessfully, to keep
them from gaining control. They knew that the Allies planned to
use the islands as a base for an invasion of Japan itself.
