Describe at least 2 “justification ideologies” for imperialism from the prescribed examples of cultural, racial, and religious m
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer: The imperialists considered individual nations incapable of developing on their own. They emphasized that Catholicism would raise peoples to a more civilizational level, and eliminate primitive religious beliefs.

Explanation:

Some historians characterize imperialism as one of the most brutal episodes in the history of the human race. The imperialists, on the other hand, sought to defend their actions by expressing several views. They rightly pointed out that individual societies are not capable of developing their economy on their own, and that they are not produced in this respect. They felt that their activities could improve the economic situation in non-developed countries. Considering that many countries that were victims of imperialism were underdeveloped, the imperialists emphasized that by adopting new technologies, they would improve the productivity of that society. When the Spaniards came to American territory, rumours began to emerge of cannibalism being prevalent among particular nations. They then sent Catholic missionaries outraging the process by intending to raise the awareness of these nations to a higher level. They also emphasized that the beliefs of these peoples were primitive and that Catholicism would influence these peoples to reach a higher civilization level.
