ISOLATION AND
GLOBALIZATION

The focus of this unit is the development of World
War I, II and the Cold War. This unit will examine the
changes caused by the conflicts that involved much
of the world. These changes not only involved how
we looked at our world but also how our beliefs and
ideals changed as a result. It also involved taking a
closer look at individuals, groups, and
institutions to see how improvements could be
made to create a better United States and world.
Technological innovations created the need for
people to move and migrate to new areas.
