Unit 4: Age of Revolution
Fundamentally, Atlantic revolution is the broad movement by various Atlantic peoples to forge new governments based on the Enlightenment ideals of liberty and equality. You will examine revolutionary processes as a whole, not simply in terms of the visible linkages between the individual revolutions themselves, but as a history of how ideologies of liberty and equality played out in different societies. You will ultimately evaluate which of the revolutions most effectively implemented those ideals, by answer the question of which revolution did the best job of realizing the Enlightenment ideals of liberty and equality.
Before starting, think about some things.
What is freedom (liberty)?
What is equality?
These were the TWO main ideals that the Age of Revolution was all about.
You will research four revolutions. You will be looking at the American, French, Haitian, and Venezuelan Revolutions in this study.
The BIG QUESTION you want to be able to answer is:
Which of the Atlantic revolutions best lived up to the ideals of liberty and equality?
STEP 1: Open--> GOOGLE DRIVE-->2nd Quarter-->UNIT 4--> and create a DOCUMENT and name it Revolutions
STEP 2: Use the resources in the four revolution modules in this UNIT. There are videos, articles, and primary sources provided for you to use, in addition to the DIGITAL TEXTBOOK.
STEP 3: Since the class has already studied the FRENCH REVOLUTION to some extent, it would be best to focus most of your research and time on the other three revolutions.
