The historian in the passage is most clearly demonstrating which historical<br> thinking skill?
Lynna [10]

Answer:

You didn't give any passage, but I will help you as better as I can.

A historian can use several thinking skills to analyze a historical problem. However, the common ones are:

  • Historical causation
  • Continuity or rupture
  • Periodization
  • Comparison and contextualization
  • Historical argumentation

Explanation:

Now, let's understand each one:

Historical causation - the ability to analyze multiple events and situations in historical periods and found a common point, relations, and approaches. In a nutshell, it's to look at History and analyze the events as a connection of facts.

Continuity or rupture - this ability is related to the historical process of beginning and ending. In a nutshell, something begins in a period, ends in the other.

Periodization - this one is related to the process to create a logic historical timeline. To arrange the events according to their moment in history, connecting with the subsequent event.

Comparison and contextualization - is the process to look at society, event or people in History and understand them as individuals with their ideals and dynamics <u>(contextualization)</u>, but at the same time, trying to understand the differences between a historical moment to another <u>(comparison).</u>

Historical argumentation - is the ability to look at a historical process, understand it and to create a solid argument. In many ways, this ability is developed alongside the others. For example, a historian studying the Maya civilization. With a deeply analyze supply by the other points, he can see the society, religion, economic and political issues about the Mayans and write about them.

which title would best suit the period of iraqi history from 1980 through 1990 A. the era of political instability and protest B
hram777 [196]

The correct answer is D, as the title that would best suit the period of Iraqi history from 1980 through 1990 is "The era of Iraqi agression".

This time could be called like that because during those 10 years Iraq invaded both Iran in 1980 (which led to a war that lasted until 1988), and Kuwait in 1990 (which led to the Gulf War, in which a coalition led by the United States defeated the Iraqi forces and restored the Kuwaiti territory).
