    Explain The Social Structure Of 1800's Russia

    Russia went from having 26 kilometers of railroad in 1840 to having 50,000 kilometers by the end of the century. This greatly helped the economy by encouraging trade and offering cheap transportation. They also aided the spread of knowledge, creating a more educated peasant class. Even so, the largest demand for the railroads came from merchants, entrepreneurs, and the elite. In the 1880’s the Transcaucasian Railway, which connects the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea and the Trans-Caspian Railway, which follows the Silk Road, were built.…

    Communism: The Role Of Imperialism In Russia

    Despite the poor working conditions and the inequality that industrialization under capitalism creates (“The Industrial Revolution and Economic Growth”, 529) it is still a necessary step for Russia because it lays the groundwork for a successful socialist and eventually communist system of government that will allow all members of Russia to flourish. “[The Communist] openly declare that their ends can be attained only by the forcible overthrow of all existing social conditions;”(Carl Marks and Friedrich Engel, The Communist Manifesto) Therefore it is important to note that capitalism is an impractical form of government that should not be implemented for any long term scenario it is merely a stepping stone that is unfortunate but essential to the development of a successful government. Then why must Russia endure capitalism? Why not skip straight to communism? It is for this reason, A does not equal C meaning that each step in the process is essential to getting the end result.…

    Ottoman Imperialism

    The end of the 13th century would date the beginning, of what would become the largest and most influential Muslim empire since the prophetic and caliphate eras, the Ottoman Empire. The empire ruled over three continents for more than 600 years. Its capital, Constantinople, was at the center of the world at the time being. Wealth, territory, knowledge, art and modernization flourished through the empire. At the turn of the 18th century however marked the decline of the empire, which ultimately leads them to the Brink of World War I, where everything was lost.

    Imperialism

    Suppose a stranger your home and demand that from now on you go by their rules and do as they say, most people would consider this absurd and do something about it. This is pretty much the situation that the United States put the citizens of the Philippines in the year of 1898. Imperialistic actions by the United States against the Philippines caused turmoil within the United States because the morals of the country were in question regarding the actions taking place and the beliefs stated in the Declaration of Independence. Anti-Imperialist League did not agree with the United States taking control over Philippine citizens and disregarding the fact that these citizens deserved respect. The Benevolent Assimilation Proclamation established by President McKinley was arguably unjust and impractical. Securing two naval bases to set up a means to develop commerce seems acceptable until it is put up against denying the Filipinos their sovereignty.…

    American Imperialism

    During the Cold War, the world in general was a maniacal, paranoia-driven place to live in. Feelings of nationalism and inter-cultural isolation/conformity created rifts filled with fear between opposing nations, especially the two superpowers. The United States, as the juxtaposition to Soviet communists, sought to identify communism as a social evil, and a suppressor of both happiness and liberty. The resulting mentality following the period of global animosity triggered numerous instances of economic/cultural collapse, simply because the United States refused to acknowledge communism as an acceptable alternative to a democratic, capitalist society. In truth, the actions practiced by the United States are essentially reprehensible. Just to eliminate traces of the misconception that capitalism is the solution to world-suffering, one must recall the situation in Chile during the Cold War. When Augusto Pinochet came to power in 1973, a startling statistic is that the unemployment rate was an enviable, by today’s standards, 4.3%. However, in 1983, after ten years of free-market modernization, unemployment reached 22%. Real wages declined by 40% under military rule. This reality solidifies the fact that although not a necessarily democratic government, the free-market/capitalist Chilean government, severely exacerbated the issue of poverty in Chile. Capitalism, a system consistent with democracy, failed. Miserably. The first point is that the United States’ concerns for the economic well-being of other countries was misplaced, believing that the only way is the American way. As a world power drunk with international influence, the United States forced its policies on nations that were doing well without being…

    American Imperialism

    During the late nineteenth century America was a growing and prosperous country. The Civil War had ended and the United States was once again unified. As the United States gained more money and power, it looked to overseas trade to monopolize on their raw materials. The United States began to trade with Japan, China Latin America and other countries to acquire these distant resources. In order to protect these investments, the U.S. had place upon these foreign countries their political influence. The United States went to war with Spain in order to protect their investments. In the Spanish-American War the United States gained control of the Philippians, Cuba, and Puerto Rico all three territories were filled with coveted materials. While many agreed with America becoming an imperialist country, many believed it was against America’s best interest to do so.…

    Imperialism

    Since the American Revolution, American Imperialism has been a practice exercised by The United States. America, one of the world’s most powerful countries, has sought to expand, control, and influence nations and people that are not strong enough to retaliate successfully. Once America set its sights on what it wanted to govern, own, seize, or destroy, it was usually victorious. Devine Manifestation was the belief that God sent them fourth to possess the land for expansion and growth; as with the first settlers that came to America decided to make America their own. They fought with the indigenous people, took their land by killing them, or made them slaves. Acts of greed and selfishness led to America’s first taste of imperialism. During the 19th Century, America embraced the foreign policy “The Monroe Doctrine.” This doctrine kept countries such as the Philippines, Hawaii, and the Caribbean under U.S protection. The Monroe Doctrine allowing the counties to self-govern but gave America the opportunity to influence and expand its ideas, concepts, and values throughout the land. America still perpetuated the act of imperialism in the Caribbean, Asia, and Latin America by influencing the land with its commerce, products, religion, free enterprise, and democracy. America felt the need to exert its influences beyond its borders and harbored dreams of a global empire. Its rationale included military, economic, and religious arguments. Some of the major events of this time included a rebuilding of the navy, the acquisition of Midway and Alaska, the Spanish-American War, and annexation of the Philippines.…
