(0)
From Rakosi to Gero to Nagy and the Krushchev/Soviet response to the 1956 uprising. An explanation of the international response to the uprising.<br /> <br /> Moving on to the Berlin Crisis and the building of the Berlin Wall. Quite a lengthy clip on the Wall but students seemed to find it worth watching.
