  1. Describe the rise of industrial economies and their link to imperialism and colonial-ism (e.g., the role played by national security and strategic advantage; moral issues raised by the search for national hegemony, Social Darwinism, and the missionary impulse; material issues such as land, resources, and technology).
  1. Discuss the locations of the colonial rule of such nations as England, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Russia, Spain, Portugal, and the United States.
  1. Explain imperialism from the perspective of the colonizers and the colonized and the varied immediate and long-term responses by the people under colonial rule.

Describe the independence struggles of the colonized regions of the world, including the roles of leaders, such as Sun Yat-sen in China, and the roles of ideology and religion. 

________________________________________________________________________

Objective:
  • 10.4.1. Performance Standard:

    Describe the rise of industrial economies and their link to imperialism and colonial-ism (e.g., the role played by national security and strategic advantage; moral issues raised by the search for national hegemony, Social Darwinism, and the missionary impulse; material issues such as land, resources, and technology).
  • 10.4.2. Performance Standard:

    Discuss the locations of the colonial rule of such nations as England, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, Russia, Spain, Portugal, and the United States.
  • 10.4.3. Performance Standard:

    Explain imperialism from the perspective of the colonizers and the colonized and the varied immediate and long-term responses by the people under colonial rule.
Rationale:
The Industrial Revolution created a strong desire in many industrialized countries to expand their technologies into weapons of war, and territorial expansion and exploitation. A mad rush for new resources (sources which were outside their own defined homeland) became a focal point and led to massive Imperialistic Actions taken around the world.

Evidence:
Being able to identify and explain the effects of the Industrial Revolution on the desire and outcome of Imperialism, will allow students to gain a better understanding of the lasting effects of that era in modern day foreign policy and cultural relationships

Episode 8: The New Machine
After McKinley is assassinated, Theodore Roosevelt becomes president and quickly passes a series of regulations increasing oversight of American business. Henry Ford devises the plan for a gas-powered car, and he launches the assembly line as an innovative method of production. He targets the middle class with his Model T and changes the landscape of America. The Panama Canal opens up new trade routes. Rockefeller is put on trial for anti-trust violations. He loses in court and his company, Standard Oil, is one of the first monopolies broken up by the U.S. government. J.P. Morgan helps to establish the
Federal Reserve and cements his legacy as the father of modern capitalism. He and other big business leaders become major philanthropists. As the U.S. Army sets sail for Europe in World War I, one thing is clear…these men didn’t discover America, they built it.


Key terms to define
DURABLE, MONOPOLY, PHILANTHROPY, SUPERPOWER, UTILITARIAN


Discussion Questions
1. Why was the election of President Theodore Roosevelt so significant? What were some of the major changes he made?

4. What is philanthropy? Do you think all business leaders are obligated to also be philanthropists?

Their candidate, William McKinley, wins the White House and passes legislation favorable to big business. Morgan and Carnegie create U.S. Steel, the first billion-dollar company in the U.S. while Rockefeller takes control of 90 percent of North American oil.
