Preparing for Potsdam: What do we learn about Stalin from Berlin's Soviet memorial?

Aims:

  • Understand the Soviet point of view about Germany and Eastern Europe in 1945 and how this affected relations with the USA
  • Use the techniques of the historian on a public memorial and draw information and insights from it
  • Demonstrate understanding of both points above in a concise but well-supported summary of the Soviet mindset (in the briefing to Truman)
