•  How and why did the middle class change in its political and social outlook before 1848 to its posture about 1875?
• What was the status of women in the second half of the 19th century? Why did they grow discontented with their lot? To what extent had they improved their position by 1914? What tactics did they use? Was the emancipation of women inevitable?
• Describe the main features of family life in the late 19th century and how did it differ from family life today? Why did European families get smaller during this period?
• Discuss the relationship of the labor movement and the socialist movement in any two of the following countries: Britain, France, Germany. In which country was the cooperation between the two closest? Least? Why?
• What was the status of the industrial proletariat in 1860? Had it improved by 1914? What caused the growth in trade unions and organized mass political parties? How did Europe's socialist movement respond to these administrations?
• Compare and contrast the views of Sidney Webb, Edward Bernstein and V.I. Lenin. If you were a European worker during this period, in which country would you want to live? Why?
•Assess the value of industrialism for Russia. Were the tsars wise in attempting to modernize their country or would they have been better off leaving it as it was?
