American imperialism” is a term that refers to the economic, military, and cultural influence of the United States on other countries. First popularized during the presidency of James K. Polk, the concept of an “American Empire” was made a reality throughout the latter half of the 1800s. During this time, industrialization caused American businessmen to seek new international markets in which to sell their goods. In addition, the increasing influence of social Darwinism led to the belief that the United States was inherently responsible for bringing concepts such as industry, democracy, and Christianity to less developed “savage” societies. The combination of these attitudes and other factors led the United States toward imperialism.
The American Anti-Imperialist League was an organization established in the United States on June 15, 1898, to battle the American annexation of the Philippines as an insular area. The League also argued that the Spanish-American War was a war of imperialism camouflaged as a war of liberation. The anti-imperialists opposed the expansion because they believed imperialism violated the credo of republicanism, especially the need for “consent of the governed.” They did not oppose expansion on commercial, constitutional, religious, or humanitarian grounds; rather, they believed that the annexation and administration of third-world tropical areas would mean the abandonment of American ideals of self-government and isolation—ideals expressed in the U.S. Declaration of Independence, George Washington ‘s Farewell Address, and Abraham Lincoln ‘s Gettysburg Address. The Anti-Imperialist League represented an older generation and was rooted in an earlier era; they were defeated in terms of public opinion, the 1900 election, and the actions of Congress and the president because most younger Progressives who were just coming to power supported imperialism.
This would be known as a socialist system.
Socialism is a political and economic theory that focuses on government control. In a socialist country, the government would control what businesses make, how much product they make, and what resources/services citizens will receive. In this system, their is very little room for individual freedoms or choices. This is due to the fact that the government controls a significant part of the economy.
The other answer choices are not involved in the Whitewater and the Monica Lewinski cases, so the answer would be A!
Have a nice day! :)
False- Change slowly to quickly to make it true
During the 80s, Native Americans mostly faced the problems of poverty and inability to get jobs. They wanted social justice and fought for their rights to become employed. Reservations were extremely poor and crime and alcoholism thrived, practically there not being any future for them. Not to mention that it was just after the two federal agents were killed in the 70s.
