Reconstruction FOR MORE CLASSES
VISIT www.his204tutorials.com   The History of
Reconstruction. Many Americans like to imagine
the history of their nation as one of continual
progress. While acknowledging that not all
persons and groups enjoyed equal rights at all
times, Americans often take it for granted that
American history moves in only one direction
toward greater rights, greater freedom, and
greater equality. This perspective makes it
difficult for many Americans to understand the
Reconstruction period and to place it in a
broader historical narrative.

The Progressive Movement. The Progressive
Movement was a complicated, even contradictory,
phenomenon which sometimes pushed for the
expansion of popular democracy while at other
times, or even simultaneously, advocated that the
functions of government be placed in the hands of
experts. The movement addressed some of the worst
domestic problems of its time, but its mainstream
largely ignored widespread and worsening racial
injustices. Review the Progressive Movement of

Americas Age of Imperialism. Americas Age of
Imperialism was relatively short-lived, and
somewhat anomalous in terms of overall US
history. For a few brief years in the 1890s, the
US aggressively pursued overseas colonies,
holding on to those colonies even in the face of
indigenous resistance and, unlike its handling of
continental territories, offering the new
colonies no pathway toward equal statehood and
citizenship.

The Progressive Presidents. The presidential
election of 1912 was the most Progressive in US
history with the two frontrunners, Theodore
Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, both espousing
Progressive philosophies (and the most
conservative candidate, William Howard Taft,
being in many ways a Progressive himself).
Although both Wilson and Roosevelt were
Progressive, their attitudes toward Progressivism
differed, at least in theory. This paper will

Normalcy and the New Deal. When the First World
War ended, Americans welcomed what they hoped
would be a return to normalcy. The decades that
followed, however, are ones which would rarely be
described as normal, in comparison to what came
before or after. During these decades, a struggle
ensued within the American nation regarding how
best to define the nations essential character,
as groups like the revived Ku Klux Klan fought a

End of Isolation. In 1938, in Munich, the British
Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain made a deal
with Adolph Hitler allowing Nazi Germany to annex
Czechoslovakias Sudetenland. Hailed as a hero
for his diplomacy at the time, Chamberlain is now
widely reviled for his policy of appeasement to
Nazi aggression. Yet one year later, Chamberlain
would lead Britain into war against Germany in
defense of Poland once it became clear that
appeasement had failed. By contrast, the US did
little to halt

Single American Nation. When the First World War
began, African-American leaders pressed the
government to provide black men the right to go
to combat to prove their devotion to their
country. Hoping that their service would lay a
stake on citizenship which the nation would have
no choice but to honor, the New Negro of the
1920s adopted a more militant stance toward civil
rights. The civil rights struggle envisioned at
the time, however, made few concrete gains.
Discrimination and disenfranchisement persisted.

against each other directly, the Cold War

the US grew more activist and interventionist in
its foreign policy, the domestic government also
