Muckrakers were a generation of reformist jounalists that operated during the Progressive era (1890s–1920s) and denounced, in the public sphere, politicians and institutions that were undertaking corrupt practices.

Muckrackers also wrote about the activities of large corporations and unfair scenarios occurring in the urban social systems, trying to raise awareness on issues such as urban poverty and income inequality, unsafe working conditions, prostitution or even child labor.

san4es73 [151]

Labor unrest and confrontations between labor unions and employers in the United States has been present basically since the 19th century, as a response to the impact of the Industrial Revolution. National labor unions began in the post Civil War era and one of the first documented started operating in the 1880's, when most of the unrest began in response to the abuse and unfair treatment and lack of legal protection for workers against the big companies. Many of the industries were hit hard by the formation of these unions, but none more than the railroad and steel industries. 1. Labor violence could have been prevented and could have been avoided if: a) laws had been passed to protect workers better and b) If part of the plan of employers and officials to disband unions had not been to introduce spies and agitators into the unions´ ranks to create unrest so that the union would be blamed for causing trouble. 2. The unions were created to prevent the abuse of employers on workers on the topics of salary, worker´s unfair replacement, compensations. But also, to create a monopoly, meaning, workers wanted to ensure that companies could not simply get rid of workers from the union to replace them with non-unionized laborers. Usually these unions used strikes to put forth their demands and in many ocassions ended up attacking and killing strikebreakers and replacement workers instead of the employers themselves. 3. Because the formation of unions meant that workers were for the first time not willing to simply follow the instructions and demands of a company. They began joining together in an attempt to demand better working conditions, something companies did not have to face up until then. Also, the result of these constant strikes and the violence forced the state and national governments to take measures and pass laws that in the end did not benefit their companies.

mamaluj [8]

According to Wilfrid Wilson Gibson´s poem "<em>back" </em>, show us the sad story of a men who has been in a far away land, fighting a war that was not his war, leaving every piece of his soul in any man he killed,  until can not recognize himself, so the question would not be <em>"where he´s been and what he´s done" </em>it would be more like asking <em>Will you finally be able to find your soul?.</em>

During the early twentieth century, the nation’s century-long isolation from European conflicts increased.
gregori [183]
This is a true or false question and the correct answer here is that this statement is in fact false.

Here we are talking about the United States of America and the their long policy of isolationism did not increase but it did in fact end. The US had long fallowed the Washington's advice of non-interference and the Monroe Doctrine but the WWI and the WWII forced the US to take more active role in the world politics and affairs.
