Was annexing Hawaii in agreement with American ideals about freedom?

History

Yuri [45]3 years ago

Annexing Hawaii was in direct disagreement with American ideals about freedom, in fact it went against our own laws. American businessmen, not Hawaiian citizens or native Hawaiians, overthrew the government of this foreign nation in the hopes of gain a even bigger advantage for their corporate greed. The American ideals about freedom rely on the belief that everyone gets a choice to live the life they want. By annexing this foreign nation without war, negotiation, or purchase the annexation  was a forceful unconsented takeover. A takeover which very much emulated the very imperialism the U.S. had strived to separate from.

To what does gary nash ascribe the growth of individualism in eighteenth-century america?
LuckyWell [14K]
To Gary Nash, individualism, became a great help to the slavery of African Americans, since as a historian, this was his focus. While it has always been America's stance that God created all men equal, this did not directly apply to the slaves as an argument by Nash.

Answer:

King Leopold II treated the Congo as his personal property and exploited the country for slave labor, rubber, and ivory. The Belgian Congo was established in 1908 after the international community pressured the Belgian government to annex the country and take it out of the king's hands. Conditions in Belgian Congo improved as the Belgian government supported education and established trade. Nevertheless, the people of the Congo increased their demands for independence.

What are two reasons the United States and Soviet Union need address the issue of nuclear war
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Relations between the Soviet Union and the United States were driven by a complex interplay of ideological, political, and economic factors, which led to shifts between cautious cooperation and often bitter superpower rivalry over the years. The distinct differences in the political systems of the two countries often prevented them from reaching a mutual understanding on key policy issues and even, as in the case of the Cuban missile crisis, brought them to the brink of war.

The United States government was initially hostile to the Soviet leaders for taking Russia out of World War I and was opposed to a state ideologically based on communism. Although the United States embarked on a famine relief program in the Soviet Union in the early 1920s and American businessmen established commercial ties there during the period of the New Economic Policy (1921–29), the two countries did not establish diplomatic relations until 1933. By that time, the totalitarian nature of Joseph Stalin's regime presented an insurmountable obstacle to friendly relations with the West. Although World War II brought the two countries into an alliance, based on the common aim of defeating Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union's aggressive, antidemocratic policy toward Eastern Europe had created tensions even before the war ended.

The Soviet Union and the United States stayed far apart during the next three decades of superpower conflict and the nuclear and missile arms race. Beginning in the early 1970s, the soviet regime proclaimed a policy of détente and sought increased economic cooperation and disarmament negotiations with the West. However, the Soviet stance on human rights and its invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 created new tensions between the two countries. These tensions continued to exist until the dramatic democratic changes of 1989–91 led to the collapse during this past year of the Communist system and opened the way for an unprecedented new friendship between the United States and Russia, as well as the other new nations of the former Soviet Union.
