2 Causes, Practices, and Effects of War Types of War
Guerrilla War: a war between irregular forces and established armies 20th c Guerrilla Wars: Chinese Civil War ( ), French Indochina War ( , Battle of Dien Bien Phu), Vietnam War ( ), Algerian War (France, ), Afghan Resistance ( , Mujahadeen), Cuban Revolution ( ) Civil Wars: a war between rival factions within a country Spanish Civil War (Francisco Franco, Comintern, Popular Front rebels, loyalists, republicans, nationalists) Which countries took which sides in the war? Vietnam, Korea, Chinese Civil War, India-Pakistan

3 Causes, Practices, and Effects of War Types of War
Total War: a conflict of unlimited scope, one side mobilizes all available resources (human, industrial, agricultural, military, natural, tech) in order to entirely destroy. In total war, there is no differentiation between soldiers and citizens. WWI, WWII Limited War: do not expend all of each of the available resources at their disposal, whether human, industrial, agricultural, military, natural, technological, or otherwise in a specific conflict. This may be to preserve those resources for other purposes, or because it might be more difficult for specific participants to be able to utilize all of an areas resources rather than part of them. Limited war is an opposite of total war Ex: The Cold War (not using atomic bombs, Truman vs. Gen. MacArthur in Korea) Proxy War: a war that results when 2 powers use other parties as substitutes for fighting each other directly. (terror groups, mercenaries). These groups can strike an opponent without leading to full-scale war.

Successes and failures of domestic and foreign policy Form of govt, political ideology (right or left) Totalitarianism, treatment of opposition How do they maintain their regime?

17 Roles of Women: Communism
Communist Theory: Marx, Engels, 1800s (Marxist Feminism) Origins of Family, Private Property, and the State: Monogamous marriage was the domination of men over women, men have dominated women (just as the capitalist class has dominated workers), dismantling capitalism is a way to liberate women. Private property gives rise to economic inequality, dependence, political confusion and ultimately unhealthy social relations between men and women--the root of women’s oppression. Gender oppression IS class oppression and serves the interests of capital and the ruling class. Stalin (Communism): Roles of women change (1928) emancipation, liberation, women needed in industry, massive entry into workforce, increased educational opportunities, legislation to ensure domestic responsibilities fit with industrial employment, affected social institutions (the family), girls equal education, equal rights in employment, advances in health care (hospitals for birth), increased lifespan, free from fear of typhus, cholera, malaria, raised literacy rates, later outlawed abortion, birth control

18 PRC & Women Mao improved women’s rights, made women equal
Mao improved the lives of women by abolishing prostitution, foot binding, allowing women to initiate divorce, inherit property, stop child marriages, ended women’s opium addiction, birth control, contraceptives, planned parenting (One Child Policy) One Child Policy: a boy is more valuable, allowed to commit infanticide (kill your own child) Mao “Women hold up half the heavens.” Popular slogan during Cultural Revolution “Break the chains, unleash the fury of women as a mighty force for revolution!”

19 Nazis & Women Opposed women’s feminist movement (Jewish-led) bad for both women, men. Stay at home. Patriarchial society, the “world is her husband, her family, her children, and her home.” Women took vital jobs from men during Great Depression, economically bad for families (women were paid 66% what men earned.) Discouraged women from higher education, universities, colleges. Drop: 128,000 enrolled 1933, 51,000 in 1938 1933, Hitler appointed Gertrud Scholtz-Klink, Reich Women’s Leader, instructed women their primary role in society was to bear children, be subservient to men, “the mission of woman is to minister in the home and in her profession to the needs of life from the first to last moment of man’s existence.” Jungmadel (Young Girls) section of Hitler Youth for girls , Bund Deutscher Madel (BDM, German Girl’s League) young women Sex: promoted conduct for sex, Church morals dropped, promiscuity increased, unmarried soldiers involved with several women simultaneously, married women in multiple affairs simultaneously, with soldiers, civilians “Some farm wives used sex as a commodity, employing carnal favors as a means of getting a full day’s work from foreign laborers.” 1936, women bearing children out of wedlock (Lebensborn) “Fountain of Life” to create racial purity, encouraged German soldiers (SS) to reproduce, offered SS families support services (adoption of racially pure children into suitable SS families), accommodating racially-valuable women, pregnant with SS men’s children, in care homes in Germany, Occupied Europe. Also racially pure children forcibly seized from occupied countries (Poland) with German families Despite official restrictions, some women were highly visible, officially praised achievements: aviatrix Hanna Reitsch, film director Leni Riefenstahl

20 Roles of Women: Fascism (Mussolini, Italy)
Fascism promotes Masculine heroism, militarism, discipline, Patriarchy Women briefly given right to vote until 1925 (Italian Fascists abolished elections). 1920 Mussolini declared that “Fascists do not belong to the crowd of the vain and skeptical who undervalue women’s social and political importance. You will vote!” Women’s primary role: child-bearers (men were warriors) “war is to man what maternity is to the woman.” Women are the “reproducers of the nation.” It was unnatural for women to have more influence in a relationship with a man “Battle for Births” gave financial incentives to women who raised large families, policies designed to reduce women employed to allow larger numbers of children 1934, Mussolini declared employment of women was “major aspect of the thorny problem of unemployment”, women working was “incompatible with childbearing.” Solution to unemployment: “exodus of women from the work force.” 1920s, Opera Nazionale Dopolavoro (OND) allowed working women to attend entertainment, recreation events (including sports traditionally played by men). Criticized by Roman Catholic Church, causing “masculinization” of women. Mussolini responded by restricting women to only “feminine, womanly” sports.

21 Origins and Development of Authoritarian and Single-Party States
Compare and contrast the domestic policies of Kenyatta (Kenya) and Nyerere (Tanzania) Analyze the social and economic policies of Hitler In what ways and to what extent did the status of women change in two single party states (each from a different region) In 1924 Stalin said “the state is an instrument in the hands of the ruling class, used to break the resistance of the enemies of that class.” How did Stalin carry out this belief?
