US Imperialism in the Early 1900s

Imperialism ► What is Imperialism? Empire-building by dominating other nations either politically or economically ► Who is Involved? The United States, most European countries and Japan ► Africa and Southeast Asia are divided into colonies ► The competition for colonies will eventually lead to World War I

Reasons for Imperialism ► Industrial Revolution -- needed raw materials and markets ► "white-man’s burden" & Manifest Destiny  Anglo-Saxon Christians have the duty to "civilize" the rest of the world ► Monroe Doctrine — no European involvement in the Western Hemisphere ► Importance of Sea Power  1890 — Alfred Thayer Mahan — The Influence of Sea Power Upon History

Examples of American Imperialism ► Alaska (1867) — William Seward bought from the Russians – “Seward’s Folly” ► Hawaii (1900) -- US citizens owned sugar plantations, plantations owners took control of Hawaii and removed the Queen Liliuokalani.  United States annexed (took over) Hawaii in 1900 ► Spanish-American War (1898) ► China  Open Door Policy — John Hay proposed that all nations have equal access to Chinese markets and material.

1. Roosevelt’s “Big Stick” Policy ( ) ► Wanted greater US involvement in world affairs. ► Advocated for peaceful relations, but wanted a strong American presence in to ensure US prosperity. ► America as world policeman ► “Speak softly and carry a big stick”

Examples of “Big Stick” Policy ► Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine (1900): US can act as an international police power in Latin America.  Used to justify intervention in Dominican Republic, Panama, Cuba, Nicaragua, Honduras, Mexico and Haiti. ► Panama Canal: The US wants a canal, but Colombia will not agree…..so we “support” a Panamanian revolt….and get rights to build and use the Canal.

Examples of “Big Stick” Policy ctnd. ► “Open Door” policy— ensure China would keep its door open to all countries for trade. ► Roosevelt sent troops to suppress the Chinese Boxers (Boxer Rebellion), rebels who opposed opening up China to foreign trade.

2. Taft’s “Dollar Diplomacy” (1909) ► Encouraged US to invest $$ in foreign nations ► Dollars, not bullets, would advance US authority and ensure stability. ► Ordered troops to Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico. ► Use of force was a way to teach other nations how to establish law and order.

Wilson’s “Moral Diplomacy” (1912) ► US should champion democracy around the globe and help maintain world peace. ► Emphasized American ideals like democracy, believed America should help spread those ideals. ► Caused US to meddle in affairs in Latin America and Asia.
