HIS 204 Week 1 DQ 1 The History of
Reconstruction For more classes
visit www.snaptutorial.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

HIS 204 Week 2 DQ 1 The Progressive Movement For
more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com 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
the first two decades of the twentieth century,
and generalize what you take to be its core
principles. Identify the specific economic,
social, and political problems which the
Progressives sought to address

Imperialism For more classes visit www.snaptutoria
l.com 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.

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,

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

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 Hitlers initial expansion, and
entered into the war only gradually, attempting,
until attacked directly,

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.

Second World War, the US embarked on what came to
be known as the Cold War against the Soviet
Union. Although the two sides never fought
against each other directly, the Cold War
nonetheless erupted into violence at times in
places like Vietnam, Korea, and Afghanistan. As
the US grew more activist and interventionist in
its foreign policy, the domestic government also
grew in power and in its role in the peoples
lives.

of Ronald Reagan in 1980 represented a
revolution in American society and,
particularly, its politics. Review Reagans

with an eye toward how American society has

m Focus of the Final Paper Understanding history
can be more difficult than many people imagine.
Historians concern themselves not only with what
happened but with why it happened. They analyze
and assess a variety of sources, including
primary sources (ones created during the time
period the historian is examining) and secondary
sources (ones written by other historians after
the period), to create their own interpretations
of the past. For the Final Paper, students will
not only learn about the past, but also
experiment with the interpretive, analytical
methodologies of the historian.
