Moreover, and here the memory of war once again played an important role, the twentieth-century ‘socialist’ welfare states were constructed not as an advance guard of egalitarian revolution but to provide a barrier against the return of the past: against economic depression and its polarizing, violent political outcome in the desperate politics of Fascism and Communism alike. The welfare states were thus prophylactic [preventive] . . . . Thanks to a half century of prosperity and safety, we in the West have forgotten the political and social traumas of mass insecurity. And thus we have forgotten why we have inherited those welfare states and what brought them about.”  \nTony Judt, British historian, Reappraisals: Reflections on the Forgotten Twentieth Century, 2008  \n3. a) Provide ONE piece of evidence that would support Judt’s argument regarding the creation of welfare states.  \nb) Provide ONE piece of evidence that would support Judt’s characterization of political and economic conditions in the period 1960 to 2000.  \nc) Briefly analyze ONE way in which Judt’s argument is a response to the political and intellectual trends in late-twentieth-century Europe.  \n© 2017 The College Board.  \nVisit [the College Board on the Web: www.collegeboard.org](the College Board on ","cbCaiu7KhZb5nxn4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiu7KhZb5nxn4","pdf",1113160,11,"English","# Section I, Part B\n## Directions and response requirements\n## Question 1: European family life (1700-1900)\n## Question 2: Printing centers (1452-1789)\n## Question 3: Welfare states evidence and analysis (1960-2000)\n## Question 4: Kepler passage and cosmology; Scientific Revolution discovery","[{\"question\":\"What are the response requirements for Section I, Part B?\",\"answer\":\"Each response must be written in complete sentences within the designated lined space, and all parts of every question must be answered.
