The 1950s were a remarkable time in the history of the United States of America. While every decade of American life seems to pr

ovide a defined and unique expression of the state of the nation, the 1950s remains a more removed – and less likely to be repeated – period. As a whole, the decade marked an era in which greater changes occurred than ever before.

The United States in the 1950s experienced marked economic growth – with an increase in manufacturing and home construction amongst a post–World War II economic expansion. The Cold War and its associated conflicts helped create a politically conservative climate in the country, as the quasi-confrontation intensified throughout the entire decade. Fear of communism caused public Congressional hearings in both houses of Congress while anti-communism was the prevailing sentiment in the United States throughout the period. Conformity and conservatism characterized the social norms of the time. Accordingly, the 1950s in the United States are generally considered both socially conservative and highly materialistic in nature. The 1950s are noted in United States history as a time of compliance, conformity and also, to a lesser extent, of rebellion. Major U.S. events during the decade included: the Korean War (1950–1953); the 1952 election of Second World War hero and retired Army General Dwight D. Eisenhower as President and his subsequent re-election in 1956; the Red Scare and anti-communist concerns of the McCarthy-era; and the U.S. reaction to the 1957 launch by the Soviet Union of the Sputnik satellite, a major milestone in the Cold War.

A justification rather than a basic cause of European imperialism was the __________. moral obligation to bring Western civiliza
kramer
The correct answer should be "Moral obligation to bring Western Civilization to less developed areas".

This was a justification and the way they presented it in public. It was especially prominent in Spain as they said that they were expanding for Christianity whereas they really wanted gold from colonies.

Why might it be difficult to deal with people who never doubt their own infallibility?
Crazy boy [7]

Because such people have their mind sets that they can never be wrong.

Explanation:

Infallibility is something when a person doesn't feel himself wrong. This happens when people have their minds set that they are always right and the other person engaged in the argument with them is wrong, and there is nothing wrong with them. It is actually the inability of themselves to sense their selves wrong.

No one can be infallible. Every human is fallible. So one considering himself fallible is totally wrong. It might happen sometimes that people are right in an argument, but it does not matter that they would always be right. They can be gone wrong sometimes.

It is heard and seen in our daily lives that in an argument with a person who thinks himself infallible, the other person usually says that it is better to keep quiet now, as i know you are never going to consider yourself at mistake.

So it is totally a wrong practice.

How did the entry of the United States into World War I influence the conflict?
madam [21]

Answer:

It helped Allies stop a German offensive and support a counteroffensive that led to Germany's defeat.

Explanation:

I'm not entirely sure of the answer, but through the process of elimination I've made my way here. I know it's not the first one, because although we had a poorly trained military, we were not short on supplies.

I know it's not the third one, because obviously the United States entering the war had an effect on it. Even though there was a German blockade we most likely could've gotten through it.

It's probably not four because saying that the United States entering the war immediately caused the capture of Berlin is a bit extreme- all though the United States entering the war caused it to end quickly, it was still around a year.
