Be quiet bruh. leaave this place with this foolishness
a) one argument that barton makes in the passage is that historians cannot recreate a new history just because they don't want britain or europe being in the center of world history, and such acts will only vandalize history. The passage talked about 'de-center' Europe from the world history will present many problems, and this meant that we should learn the right history and we shouldn't focusing on making history what we like.
b) one cultural or economic development in the late 20th century that explain the "impending decline of the west" was the decolonization events, which led to many European countries to become less powerful since they cannot get as much money from their colonies anymore like they used to. which led to many new nations with new cultures forming, not the blind triumphalism of the old modernization theory of inevitable progress towards westernization.
c) one cultural or economic change in the late 20th century that historians who supported the process of de-centering world history would cite as a limitation was the soviet union's success in the middle east, which supported barton's argument in the 2nd paragraph where "westernization is inevitable".
The Unites States felt that if communism can’t be contained then countries near communistic countries would fall for communism like dominoes. To combat this the US used economic and militaristic measures to prevent the spread of communism.
