Monday, 5/05 – Get a new warm-up sheet and drop-off the old one! After reviewing the political cartoon answer the following: What does the bald eagle represent? How could you use this cartoon to support American Imperialism?

Introduction to Imperialism

Definition of Imperialism The policy of establishing colonies and building empires.

Imperialism Also Includes A stronger nation with a goal to create an empire and Who dominates weaker nations through various factors.

Reasons for American Expansion of Imperialism (Pro-Imperialism) (So we could) Sell to New Markets For Protection of USA Investments Overseas To Relive Pioneer Excitement or Manifest Destiny To Civilize People or “Heathens”

Why Do Americans Feel Entitled to Civilize People? Due to Ethnocentrism Belief in the superiority of one’s own ethnic group.

Supporting Readings Alfred Mahan – The Importance of Sea Power Coaling Stations and Colonies US Imperialism Map The White Mans Burden

Arguments Against American Expansion Of Imperialism (Anti-Imperialism) Too Expensive! (It is) Anti-American (denies freedoms and rights) Isn’t that the reason why the USA sought for their independence? Too Many Problems at Home Think about the Progressive reforms we just studied!

Video Clip America Becomes a World Power (beginning to 4:24)

Note Sheet for Key Areas Related to Imperialism for the US Japan (and Midway Islands) Alaska Hawaii China

JAPAN (1854 )

Connection with Japan Commodore Matthew Perry (and a very young U.S. Navy) established trade relations with Japan in 1854 We need a coaling station in the East Used Gunboat Diplomacy!

MIDWAY ISLANDS (1867)

Midway Islands Using the idea of Manifest Destiny, The Midway Islands were annexed (joined/added to the USA) in 1867.

ALASKA (1867)

Alaska is purchased in 1867 Secretary of State William H. Seward agreed to purchase Alaska from Russia for $7.2 million. (that’s only about 2 cents an acre!) At the time, critics thought Seward was crazy and called the deal "Seward's folly."

Delaware!

Was it worth it?? Major discoveries of gold were made there in the 1880s and 1890s. These discoveries brought attention and people to Alaska. Today, petroleum transported across the state through a pipeline is Alaska's richest mineral resource.

HAWAII (1898)

What about Hawaii? Until the late 1890s, Hawaii is ruled by a monarch. American Sugar and Pineapple Planters on the island become very wealthy and powerful…

Pineapple Plants

Queen Liliuokalani is removed from power by American military force under pressure from businessmen (including Sanford Dole – the pineapple guy…) How did America become Involved in Imperialism?, cont. Hawaii is annexed in 1898.

CHINA (1898)

Although China had it’s own ruler, it was weak and controlled by other nations. These “spheres of influence” limited trade between the U.S. and China

Open Door Policy In the fall of 1898, President McKinley and Secretary of State John Hay force an "open door" policy on the nations that control China. The policy would allow all trading nations access to the Chinese markets.
