Imagine that you are an educated citizen of an imperialist European nation in the 19th century. You have not yet formed a well-t

hought-out opinion about imperialism, nor do you have a set opinion about the influence your nation has imposed on China. Now is your time to think about both sides of the argument by writing two editorials on imperialism in China.
Step 1: Write a one paragraph editorial that supports imperialism in China. Remember, you are writing from the perspective of a citizen of a European imperialist nation. Use the information you learned in the lesson on how colonization benefited imperialist nations to support your claims with evidence.

Step 2: Write a one paragraph editorial that rejects imperialism in China. Consider the claims made in your first editorial supporting imperialism and use evidence from the lesson to counter them.

1. Support:

Wherever Europeans have gone, they have brought the word of the Gospel, Economic prosperity, political freedom and an advanced way of life. We have been able to educated wild and barbarians of Africa and India and there is no indication of why we cannot replicate the success in a country like China.

They do not have any democratic government, the worship false gods, they need a savior and they need our help to improve the condition of the poor and needy.



2. Against:

To define people of India, Africa or China as barbarians is not just ignorant but stupid at best. These are ancient civilizations, with traditions, cultures and religions pre-dating thousands of years of European history.
These are sophisticated people who do not want and would not welcome an alien people, religion and way of life in to their proud countries.

We have already plundered countries all over the world, have we learned nothing? Locals despise our presence and only tolerate us. If the money to keep the local government officials run out, we experience uprisings.

Why complicate our Empire's further? Why not develop friendly relations and end the continuous wars and killings?

An opinion research firm wants to find the country's reaction to a speech by a famous politician.they randomly select six states
Alina [70]
<span>This above passage describes random sampling. Because the researchers pick six random states, then ten random zip codes (for a total of 60 zip codes), then 50 people from each zip code (for a total of 50*60 people), the process is completely random. Although, I would probably make an alteration to include 3 states that favor one party, 3 states that favor another party, and 3 swing states for a survey like this (with everything still being random).</span>
