Unit 3. Cold war 1945-1990
This option concentrates on international diplomacy from the late 19th to the late 20th centuries. It focuses on the need for, and robustness of, alliance systems and the reasons for conflict between states. Students are required to study a range of factors associated with the making of alliances, their significance and impact and the importance of armaments policies as an adjunct or threat to the peaceful resolution of disputes. They also address, and are invited to pass reasoned judgement upon, issues which have provoked disagreement and controversy among historians.

Unit 4. Individual Assignment Germany c1870-1990.
In this unit students will address key aspects of a chosen theme over a period of at least 100 years in order to develop their understanding of the process of change over a long period of time. They will investigate issues relating to the long- and short- term causes and consequences of change and will demonstrate an understanding of the factors that may accelerate, consolidate or delay the process of change.
Students should follow a short introductory taught course that provides an overview of the key strands of development in the chosen topic over a period of at least 100 years. The course should provide the context for students’ enquiries. Students are required to complete a programme in two parts. Each part will be equally weighted within the marks allocated. In Part A, students will complete an in-depth enquiry into the short-term significance of a key event, individual, development or movement within the period of study. In Part B, students will set their chosen event or individual in a broader context, exploring the process of change within the wider timeframe. Focus: Germany’s changing relationships with her European neighbours over the period and the impact on Germany of two world wars and of the influence of the Soviet Union.
