Orange Coast College Justifications of Imperialism Primary Source Review

 

As a transition from last week into this one, take a look at the documents below. In History, we look at the rationale of the people of the time for doing what they did. When it comes to sending out armies and missionaries to conquer other regions, there will always be a social dialogue happening in the cultures doing the invading. These same cultures will eventually turn their guns on each-other, which leads us into the WWI topic that is also part of this week’s work.

Please use this document to answer the analysis question below: Using the documents, and citing them based upon the last name of the author, discuss in a three paragraph ‘short essay’ four justifications for Imperialism and two arguments against it, from the viewpoint of the authors. Refer to all of the sources at least one time to show a full analysis of these period sources.
