History
1 answer:

6 0

President Roosevelt invited Sinclair to the White House to talk about The Jungle after reading it. The president then set up a special commission to look into the slaughterhouses in Chicago.

In May 1906, the special commission released its report. Almost all of Sinclair's horrors were confirmed by the report.

When President Roosevelt read The Jungle, how did he feel?

The nation was horrified when The Jungle was published. President Theodore Roosevelt ordered an immediate investigation into the meat industry after reading the book, despite privately telling Sinclair that he disliked the Socialist polemic near the book's conclusion.

The novel gained notoriety primarily due to its depiction of meatpacking facilities. A copy of his book was sent to President Roosevelt by Sinclair. Roosevelt ordered an investigation into the abattoirs, partially but not entirely influenced by Sinclair's bestseller. As depicted in The Jungle, unsanitary conditions were discovered by federal inspectors.

What is the difference between imperialism and nationalism?
Rina8888 [55]

Nationalism and Imperialism are two terms that should be understood in different senses. Nationalism is based on aggressiveness in its concept. On the other hand imperialism is constructive in its concept.

Imperialism is a kind of rule that aims at bringing equality of values, beliefs, and expertise among empires and kingdoms through domination and is autocratic in nature and also sometimes monolithic in its concept. Imperialism is a kind of western undertaking that employs expansionistic views and ideas in its ideals. Nationalism on the other hand paves the way for enmity among nations. A nationalist feels that his own country is better than any other country.

According to the great thinker George Orwell, nationalism is deeply rooted in emotions and rivalry. It makes one contemptuous of the virtues possessed by other nations. Nationalism makes one intolerant towards the progress made by other nations.

Nationalism makes one think that the people belonging to one’s own country should be considered one’s equal. Such thoughts are not present the ideals of imperialism. A nationalist does not mind about the deficiencies of his country but on the contrary takes into account only its virtues.

A nationalist strives for the domination of a nation and expresses his love for the country in an aggressive way. An imperialist though creates unequal economic relationship between states yet he maintains the unequal relationships based on domination. This is a subtle difference between the two terms.

Nationalism gives importance to unity of by way of cultural background and linguistic environment. The factors of cultural background and linguistic environment are not taken into account by the imperialist to a great extent.
