Being able to take a position on an issue and support your perspective with details is what makes you a strong communicator.
This is especially true when the issue being considered can be seen from different perspectives. Consider the following statement:
“World War II was a continuation of World War I.”
Historians have debated this issue in depth. Now it is your turn to add to this ongoing debate by defending or rejecting the above claim in an argument essay.
Quick questionwhy does it matter?
By the time World War I ended in 1918, it had become the deadliest war in recorded history. As nations worked to rebuild, people all over the world hoped for peace. Yet just over two decades later, the world was once again at war. The death toll from World War II tripled that of World War I. Some historians argue that World War II was a continuation of World War I. This position places blame on world leaders at the end of World War Ithey had the opportunity to create a lasting peace but failed. Others argue that the two conflicts were entirely separate. In this case, blame lies squarely with world leaders in the late 1930sthey were handed a period of peace and were unable to avoid additional conflict.
The better we understand the causes of both World War I and World War II, the better equipped we will be to avoid additional conflict. To prepare for your assessment, consider reflecting on why nations go to war, the causes of World War I and World War II, and what could have been done at the end of World War I to avoid World War II.
