Marchando a la guerra: ¿Puedes detener el campamento de la Segunda Guerra Mundial?

In this class, we will learn about the causes for World War 2, while playing the game Days of Decision. In this boardgame, the learners play the government of the major powers in 1936: USA, the Commonwealth, France, China, or the USSR, for example. As we play the game, the learners will make choose which policies their nations should choose, guiding them through the turbulent times, like the Spanish Civil War. The learners will have to think about:

* The national economy - can they afford military spending?
* International politics - will they try to sway minor countries to their side? Will they focus on trade or be more isolationist?
* The Spanish Civil War - will they try to intervene? Maybe the democracies can help the Republic win against the Franco's Nationalists?
