The Second Red Scare In1945 when world war two had ended due to Japan surrendering, the United States and soviets had become the two new superpowers. They were fighting so much that it created the cold war at the end of the war. During this war the soviets wanted to spread communism and the United States wanted to contain it. This time period was known as The Second Red Scare (ohiocentralhistory.org). Truman hastily enacted plans to contain communism in America after seeing that Communist in China had almost full control of country (slideshare.net).
Legalism, Confucianism, and Daoism was practiced, hoping to use different ways of thought to restore China. Confucianism, being continuously influential, caused the continuity of filial piety. On the other hand, Buddhism was newly introduced during this time by Indian missionaries, and became very widespread among the Chinese. Another continuity was the keeping of The Mandate of Heaven the whole era, giving rulers more power and respect. The expansion of China was also a change, and gain in political power along with new inventions such as paper and tea.
"Roosevelt again and again exploited the masterful device of radio "fireside chats" to report directly to an anxious national audience, and his calm assurance did much to restore American's confidence in theses and in their government". The New Deal, being such a complex plan, had many critics. A conservative and largely hostile Supreme Court encountered him with his most formidable opposition. The Supreme court interpreted the Constitution in such a manner as to invalidate vital portions of the New Deal's liberal legislative program. Roosevelt did what he could to replace the Supreme Court members because he wanted his plan to pass, for the benefit of the nation.
On top of this, Edward III began the Hundreds years war causing widespread dissatisfaction and grief on a mass scale. In short, England was suffering and needed a catalyst to propel them into the modern world. This driving force came in the form of the ‘Black Death’. The Black Death is currently known as one of the most deadly pandemics in human history. Peaking in Europe between 1348 and 1350, and thought to have originated in China, the disease was transported by oriental fleas travelling on the backs of rats in certain travelling merchant ships and with the Mongolian armies, both travelling west.
How do geography, location, and movement play major roles in the spread of the Chinese theaters? Rao focused her points on San Francisco Chinatown of the 20s and early 30s, but this alone cannot account for the public face of Chinatown in its entirety across America. However, Rao’s article is a great place to start in this research since other works on different perspectives of Chinatown all point us back to San Francisco, California. As history provides, in the mid-1840's, following defeat by Britain in the first Opium War, a series of natural catastrophes occurred across China resulting in famine, peasant uprisings and rebellions. Understandably, when the news of gold and opportunity in far away Gum San, (Golden Mountain – the Chinese name for America) reached China, many Chinese seized the opportunity to seek their fortune, and a majority ended up on the coasts of California.
Not before he zealously prepared the coming battle as Assistant Secretary of the Navy in 1897. Roosevelt had always taken an interest in the Navy, as he suggested every good American ought to, and perhaps this is where he made his greatest impact. On the brink of the Spanish-American war, Roosevelt understood he possessed a ramshackle Navy incompetent of combating the Spanish – or any other naval power for that matter. Frustrated that upon completion of the Civil war the American people had began to sink all their energy into business and money making related matters, he felt as if society had grown short sighted and selfish. Although these men were not weak, short-sightedness had led to the popular belief that another major war would fail to transpire once again.
National support helped America win the war. France joined sides with the colonies on their quest to become independent. They helped the States in many ways. First, they sent over Friedrich Wilhelm Augustus von Steuben to help train the army. It was a huge success.
-The defeat was part of a larger rebellion that began after the First Emperor's death. -The people were dissatisfied with the tyranny of the Qin leaders and their legalist form of government. -Chinese history portrays the Han as having implemented many changes to the government, evidence shows that the Han continued to rule in the tradition of the Qin, only gradually incorporating Confucian ideals into their legalist form of government. - rose after the rebellions of the Ch’in (stage one) - (stage two) Wu Ti (emperor) brought new economic policies, built canals, established granaries for surplus grain, increased taxes on merchants, created government monopolies (salt, copper coins, iron & liquor) - Debate on monopolies after Wu Ti’s death: “Salt & Iron Debate” - Legalists said: state should enjoy profits from salt & iron - Confucians said: leave resources in private hands for moral purity (government would be corrupted by dealings with merchants) - Confucian ideas begin to influence the legalists (emperors see Confucian scholars as bookish) - Confucian ideas shaped the moral of men w/o external restraints
