Title: What was progressivism? What motivated the U.S american expansionism in the 1890
Post by: kheal on Jun 26, 2016
Question 1: What was progressivism, its religious and intellectual roots, and why were so many people drawn to it? Briefly discuss how they tried to confront the major problems of American society. Also, what was the one thing that the Progressives lacked in their vision?

Question 2: What motivated U.S. American expansionism in the 1890’s – and perhaps still today? Do you think U.S. foreign policy is primarily an interventionist savior of other nations or an interfering expansionist into the affairs of other nations? Or some of both? Give examples, but focus mainly on events covered in Chapter 18 documentary excerpts, and image of Uncle Sam teaching a diverse group of students.


This is for my American History class.

In the late 1800s, a reform movement known as progressivism arose to address many of the social problems that industrialization created. The reformers, called Progressives, sought to improve living conditions for the urban poor.
