It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began, which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers. Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for Teachers. Cambridge International will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes. Cambridge International is publishing the mark schemes for the October/November 2020 series for most Cambridge IGCSE™, Cambridge International A and AS Level and Cambridge Pre-U components, and some Cambridge O Level components.

0470/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED October/November 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 2 of 92 Generic Marking Principles These general marking principles must be applied by all examiners when marking candidate answers. They should be applied alongside the specific content of the mark scheme or generic level descriptors for a question. Each question paper and mark scheme will also comply with these marking principles. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 1: Marks must be awarded in line with: • the specific content of the mark scheme or the generic level descriptors for the question • the specific skills defined in the mark scheme or in the generic level descriptors for the question • the standard of response required by a candidate as exemplified by the standardisation scripts. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 2: Marks awarded are always whole marks (not half marks, or other fractions). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 3: Marks must be awarded positively: • marks are awarded for correct/valid answers, as defined in the mark scheme. However, credit is given for valid answers which go beyond the scope of the syllabus and mark scheme, referring to your Team Leader as appropriate • marks are awarded when candidates clearly demonstrate what they know and can do • marks are not deducted for errors • marks are not deducted for omissions • answers should only be judged on the quality of spelling, punctuation and grammar when these features are specifically assessed by the question as indicated by the mark scheme. The meaning, however, should be unambiguous. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 4: Rules must be applied consistently, e.g. in situations where candidates have not followed instructions or in the application of generic level descriptors.

Mark scheme, page 3

0470/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED October/November 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 3 of 92 GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 5: Marks should be awarded using the full range of marks defined in the mark scheme for the question (however; the use of the full mark range may be limited according to the quality of the candidate responses seen). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 6: Marks awarded are based solely on the requirements as defined in the mark scheme. Marks should not be awarded with grade thresholds or grade descriptors in mind.

Mark scheme, page 4

0470/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED October/November 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 4 of 92 Applying the Mark Scheme • When marking a response the overall criterion to be considered should be – ‘How good is this response to this question?’ • The Level Descriptor should be used to decide the level into which the quality of the answer fits. • Exhaustive lists of possible facts are not given in the mark scheme, as there is often a choice of factual knowledge that candidates may use. • WHERE EXAMPLES OF RESPONSES ARE GIVEN, THESE ARE NOT PRESCRIPTIVE, BUT ARE INTENDED AS A GUIDE. It is not possible to cover every possible type of response within a levels of response mark scheme and examiners are expected to use their professional judgement at all times in ensuring that responses are placed in the correct level and given an appropriate mark within that level. • Marking must be positive. Marks must not be deducted for inaccurate or irrelevant parts of answers. In itself, poor use of historical terminology, spelling, grammar or handwriting does not affect the mark. The overall quality of the answer to the question should be judged. • If a candidate reaches a particular level, s/he must be rewarded with a mark within that level. It is not necessary to work through the levels. • The full range of marks should be used. Do not be afraid to award full marks or no marks. Failure to do this will seriously affect the distribution of marks. Be prepared to reward candidates who show any level of understanding. The mark scheme starts from basic acceptable response. Where a band of marks is indicated for a level, these marks should be used with reference to the development of the answer within that level. Assessment Objectives (a) recall, description (b) recall, explanation (c) recall, explanation and analysis

0470/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED October/November 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 6 of 92 Question Answer Marks 1(b) Why was the Second Republic formed in France in 1848? 6 Level 4 Explains TWO reasons 6 Level 3 Explains ONE reason 4–5 (Four marks for one explanation, five marks for full explanation) e.g. ‘One reason for the forming of the Second Republic was anger over the banning of Reform Banquets in February 1848. On 22 February there was a protest in Paris and barricades went up in the streets. This anger was directed towards Louis Philippe and his chief minister Guizot. There were clashes between protestors and troops. On 23 February Louis Philippe dismissed Guizot. Unable to form a government, and frightened for his own safety, he fled and abdicated. This led to the Second Republic being formed as a provisional government until new elections could be held.’ Level 2 Identifies AND/OR describes reasons 2–3 (One mark for each identification/description) e.g. ‘A Reform Banquet planned for 22 February 1848 was banned by Guizot.’ ‘On 22 February there was a protest march through Paris and barricades were erected.’ ‘Louis Philippe dismissed Guizot.’ ‘Mole and Thiers were offered the leadership, but both refused.’ ‘Louis Philippe abdicated in favour of his grandson.’ Level 1 General answer lacking specific contextual knowledge 1 e.g. The Second Republic was formed because the king abdicated. Level 0 No evidence submitted or response does not address the question 0

0470/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED October/November 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 7 of 92 Question Answer Marks 1(c) ‘The 1848 revolutions failed because of a lack of popular support.’ How far do you agree with this statement? Explain your answer. 10 Level 5 Explains with evaluation of ‘how far’ 10 As Level 4 plus evaluation. Level 4 Explanation of both sides 7–9 A L4 answer will have a minimum of three explanations (2 on one side; 1 on the other). This will be worth a mark of 7. Fuller explanation of one issue to be given two marks. An answer which only has one explanation on one side of the argument cannot be awarded more than 8. Level 3 One-sided explanation OR one explanation of both sides 5 to 6 marks 4–6 More detailed explanation of one issue to be given two marks. e.g. ‘The revolutions in Italy and Germany failed because of Austrian power rather than a lack of popular support. In Italy, the liberals and nationalists wanted the Austrians to leave Italy for good. Charles Albert was defeated twice by the Austrians and decided to abdicate. The Austrians remained in Italy.’ OR e.g. ‘In Hungary, there was popular support for the revolution but the revolutionaries were not united. The Magyar nationalists fought the Croat nationalists instead of joining to gain their independence from Austria. As a result, the revolution led by Kossuth was brutally suppressed.’ Level 2 Identifies AND/OR describes 2–3 (One mark for each point) e.g. ‘Revolutions were often regional.’ ‘Popular enthusiasm was short lived.’ ‘Support was mainly from the working class.’ ‘The Austrian forces were too powerful.’ ‘Demands were initially agreed to and then power regained.’ ‘The revolutionaries were not united.’

In 1858 he held a secret meeting with Cavour at Plombières. Napoleon agreed to fight Austria if Austria started the war. When Austria invaded Piedmont-Sardinia in 1859 France declared war, sending 100 000 troops across the frontier into Piedmont.’ OR e.g. Napoleon’s contribution was not as important to the unification as the work of Garibaldi and his ‘Red Shirts’. They invaded Sicily and then liberated the whole of southern Italy. Unification would not have been possible without this. In 1860, Garibaldi recognised Victor Emmanuel II as King of Italy and he surrendered his conquests to him.

It was supposed to clear no man’s land of barbed wire and kill the German troops in the frontline trenches. It did neither and soldiers were caught in the barbed wire as they tried to attack. This made them an easy target for German gunners.’ Level 2 Identifies AND/OR describes reasons 2–3 (One mark for each identification/description) e.g. ‘The infantry advanced across no man's land; most were met with machine-gun fire from the German trenches.’ ‘Some soldiers were caught in the barbed wire in no man’s land.’ ‘German machine gun posts were dug in and lined with concrete.’ ‘The Allied bombardment had not destroyed the barbed wire or enemy trenches.’ ‘The soldiers were carrying 66lb of kit and this made them slow.’ Level 1 General answer lacking specific contextual knowledge 1 e.g. ‘The German lines were well defended.’ Level 0 No evidence submitted or response does not address the question 0

There were bombing raids over enemy trenches but these could not be launched on a large enough scale to be useful. The most important contribution of aircraft was in reconnaissance. Enemy troop movements could be monitored from the air. Even so, messages were slow to reach commanders on the ground.’ OR e.g. ‘The early tanks were very unreliable, often breaking down in no-man’s land before they reached the enemy trenches. When they were first used on the Somme, over half of the tanks failed to make the German front lines. However, by 1918, tanks were used to better effect on the battlefield, and at the Battle of Amiens General Rawlinson used them in combination with other troops to help break through the German frontline.’

Raids which took place in March also warned the enemy that the attack was imminent, destroying any chance of a surprise attack.’ OR e.g. ‘The conditions in which the battle was fought were very difficult. It was very hot and there was a lack of clean water. Sickness spread very quickly among the troops who were already malnourished. When winter arrived, it was very cold and many troops got frostbite.

The Tsar had maintained his power through the Fundamental Laws which meant the Duma had little power to make changes or introduce democratic ideas. The Okhrana imprisoned and monitored those who were thought to be opponents of the Tsar’s regime. Added to this, there were some positive developments in the economy and this meant there was less discontent from the peasants.’ OR e.g. ‘Although it appeared as though the regime was secure, there were serious problems facing Russia. There was still a demand for political reform. Nicholas II changed the law so the Duma could do little but the demand for a more democratic government remained. Although life for some of the peasants had improved, there was discontent in industrial regions. There was a great deal of industrial unrest. A strike in the Lena goldfields was broken up by troops in 1912 and a wave of industrial unrest followed.’

Level 3 One-sided explanation OR one explanation of both sides 5 to 6 marks 4–6 More detailed explanation of one issue to be given two marks. e.g. ‘In some ways the New Deal helped farmers in the US. Incomes from farming had dropped in the 1920s. Large- scale farmers benefitted from the policies of the AAA which brought an increase in prices. Between 1933 and 1939 farmers’ incomes doubled. Farm workers were helped by the Farm Security Administration which was set up in 1937 to help them to buy their own land.’ OR e.g. ‘Small farmers and farm workers did not really benefit from the New Deal. The AAA saw prices increase but this was at the cost of ploughing up sown land and cutting back livestock production. This meant that farm workers and sharecroppers had no livelihood and many became unemployed as a result. American farming was increasingly controlled by big business and small farmers struggled to compete.’

Level 3 One-sided explanation OR one explanation of both sides 5 to 6 marks 4–6 More detailed explanation of one issue to be given two marks. e.g. ‘Resistance to apartheid through trade union action increased dramatically in the 1970s. There was a recession which caused rising prices and unemployment. Workers began a strike to call for an improvement in their pay and conditions. In the 1960s there had been strikes involving around 2,000 workers a year. In 1973 alone this increased to 61,000. The tactics of the strikers changed and this made their action more effective. They staged short, mass walk out strikes and avoided electing leaders who the government could isolate. The government began to worry about the economy as a result.’ OR e.g. ‘The Soweto riots were a more important challenge. In June 1976, inspired by the Black Consciousness Movement, thousands of school children in Soweto demonstrated against the latest ruling that at least half their lessons should be in Afrikaans. The police responded by shooting and killing a 13-year-old boy and by attacking the crowds with tear gas. The protests then became nationwide. News of what happened in Soweto spread around the world and was important in turning international opinion against apartheid.’

On the other hand, the USSR tended to support the Arab states and Soviet intelligence was important in worsening tensions which led to the Six-Day War in 1967.’ OR e.g. ‘There have been times when superpower involvement has been aimed at bringing peace to the Middle East. For example, Kissinger attempted to bring some peace and stability to the Middle East.
