Each party has their own beliefs on why or why not these documents should or should not be passed and what power is justified. It is these different ideas which helped shape the future of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The Anti-Federalists, such as Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry, were against ratification of the Constitution. They believed that the closer the government was to the people, the easier it was for the people to keep it in check and making it harder for the government to become tyrannical. Anti-Federalist tried to appeal to western settlers with ideas of voting right to everyone and not just rich land holders.
The flood of funds put money in the pockets of those who began to build the city. All in all, the Gold Rush gave California the kick-start it needed to start transforming into what it is today. The Gold Rush started at Sutter's Mill, near Coloma. California Gold Rush was during 1848–49 in the Sierra Nevada. No part of California would be the same after the gold rush.
During the late 19th and early 20th century, US expansionism used the same basic principle but was different from earlier expansionism in the way of geography, economics, and politics. They continued to believe that they had a God-given right to branch out. However, they expanded this Manifest Destiny so that, instead of looking just to expand and conquer the West, they were looking to conquer the entire world. Earlier, the United States had gained more land in the same vicinity and wanted to expand from the Atlantic to the Pacific. After completing this task, rather than settling down, they continued to try and gain more land, this time into different places including Hawaii, Cuba, and the Philippines.
Come and Get It! Propaganda and Early American Colonization Efforts In 1518 Richard Hakluyt wrote his Discourse Concerning Western Planting to persuade Queen Elizabeth I to begin colonizing America for England’s gain. Hakluyt makes a thorough argument for the settling of the New World, and for England to have a competitive hold on her competition and be the first successful settlers in the New World. The Discourse was furthermore written to point out the positive elements of making America a major part of furthering the British Empire and to prosper financially from America’s “endless” potential. Hakluyt also pointed that the overflow of people, both in need of religious freedom and in want of more business opportunities, within England needed a place to go.
The above resulted in the former Thirteen Colonies’ acquisition of the entire continent. However, even after reaching their geographic limitations, many felt that in order to “rightfully assert itself into the world,” (Browne & Carter, 2013) the United States would have to expand beyond the continent “allotted by Providence.” (Browne & Carter, 2013) Therefore, the final decade of the 19th century was marked by “a nationalistic eagerness” (Browne & Carter, 2013) for the United States achieve this. One of
Yukichi Fukuzawa was a pioneer in bringing Western thought and ideas to Japan. Through his efforts he made the great nation of Japan even greater with conveying western ideas to Japan and gracing the Japanese with a whole different thought process. In order to introduce Japan to the Western world he first had to rid the country of the Chinese culture and structure. Japan had developed China’s government model which therefore brought many of the Chinese customs and traditions to Japan. In order to liberate Japan from Feudalism, Fukuzawa thought it was crucial for Japan to become familiarized to the Western ideas and technologies, and what he thought would forever change Japan.
Japan had a smarter way of approaching this situation. They decided that they were going to adopt, adapt and adept to western imperialism. Japan becomes empire builders by strengthening their economic and military strengths. Japan
The railroads brought new change to what Americans everyday lives. The two most important effects of the coming of railroads on everyday life and ideas in late 19th century New Mexico and southern Colorado were Manifest Destiny the incorporation of the West. John O’ Sullivan from the New York, Morning Post states that 1. )“(It is).. our manifest destiny to overspread and to possess the whole of the continent which providence has given us for the development of the great experiment of liberty.” 1 Americans know thought it was their right to take the land in the West and that it was also part of their freedom. The railroad brought corporate entities to the West 2.)
Putnam argument rests majorly on an earlier work done by Ithiel de Sola Pool, “Technologies Without Borders (1990)”. Putnam considers this work as a discerning work attributing its relevance to the current debates about complicated links in social connectedness and culture. In his argument, Putnam proposes that Pool’s prediction about revolutions in communication technology is indeed relevant to the civic engagement crisis that is being evidenced. From what he talks about, Pool had predicted of technological advances that would come to have a profound decentralization and fragmentation effect on the society and culture in decades to come. He therefore, supports his arguments as a fulfillment of what Pool seemed to predict.
* Having control of the past allows the government to have control of the future. * The future is a direct consequence of the past. * The party will feed them lies about the past, to gain more support for their political agenda by portraying the past in a negative light. * Limiting memory, to limit knowledge of the past. * Makes control of people easier, as they will be more like to support the Party if they think the party has brought positive changes.
