Spanish-American War on 1898 was caused by the Wilson-Gorman Tariff (1894) or
the American tariff. It put hold on the exporting of sugar form Cube to United
States and sugarhad a big impact on the Cuban economy at that time making
American investors worry for their businesses as well. After the war, United
States was able to make improvements on Cuba’s sytems. This gave US the
opportunity to implement Platt Amendment, making countries like Cuba to be
subtly colonies again,. This angered the colonized countries forming into
rebellion against the US.</span>
Based on the words "cultural" and "economic," I would say that a cultural historian would be more informed on the changes of societal behavior and religion, while an economic historian would hear more about currency, trade and things involving money in different regions.
The Cold War asked the question in which the general public as well as the government decided where to draw the line in between a person and their own personal freedom & <em>personal space</em>, and the general public's safety. The Cold War saw extensive usage of spies and espionage, as well as counter-espionage tactics that included surveillance, counter wire-tapping, etc. With the government listening to almost everything a citizen says, it took away the sense of privacy. The trend is seen even today, where the US government's past record & capability to continue surveillance of the general public makes many wonder whether or not they really have "freedom".
