    Abstract

    This chapter investigates the historical context for the Communist victory in China via critical inquiry and is written for students in years 11 and 12. This chapter provides students with the opportunity to explore a wide range of sources using skills of comprehension, analysis, interpretation, evaluation and decision making. This source-based approach leads students towards independent learning and the development of crucial historical skills.

Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
