The document summarizes Western imperialism in Southeast Asia, the Pacific Islands, and China from the 19th to early 20th centuries. European powers like the Dutch, British, French, and Americans established colonial rule over much of the region for economic and political gain. They developed plantation economies focused on cash crops and imposed control over local politics. However, some nations like Thailand and China were able to maintain independence. Imperialism had mixed effects, leading to colonization but also the spread of Christianity and new infrastructure like railroads.
INFLUENCE OF EXTERNAL FORCES AND THE RISE OF NATIONALISM AND THE STRUGGLE FOR...shahzadebaujiti
Nationalism in Africa arose as a desire for independence from colonial rule. It began as an elite movement before 1945 seeking reforms, but intensified after 1945 aiming to overthrow colonial governments. Factors contributing to African nationalism included exploitation of resources and people under colonialism, the impact of education in creating nationalist elites, and external forces like the United Nations supporting decolonization. Ghana achieved independence through peaceful constitutional means thanks to strong leadership from Nkrumah and his CPP party, an absence of tribalism, clear nationalist policies, and widespread support for independence.
IMPERIALISM AND TERRITORIAL DIVISION OF THE WORLD (COLONIZATION OF AFRICA)shahzadebaujiti
This document discusses the rise of European imperialism and nationalism in the 19th century and their impacts. It covers:
1) The development of different types of capitalism that drove imperial expansion.
2) How German and Italian unification movements overcame obstacles to create unified nation-states.
3) The effects of European nationalism within Europe, including new alliances and rivalry, and globally through increased colonialism in Africa and Asia.
COLONIAL ECONOMY AND SOCIAL SERVICES AFTER THE SECOND WORLD WARshahzadebaujiti
The document discusses the colonial economy and social services in Africa after World War 2. It provides details on:
1) How the colonial powers established the colonial economy through creating new economic systems focused on exports, taxes and forced labor while destroying traditional African industries.
2) The key sectors of the colonial economy - agriculture focused on cash crops, mining, processing industries, commerce and transport.
3) Changes made after WW2 including establishing progressive farmers, new agricultural development schemes, experiments, and state farms to boost production for European markets.
4) Why some colonial agricultural reforms failed, such as due to poor soils and lack of investment in infrastructure and technology.
European imperialism in the late 19th century was driven by economic, political, and ideological motives. Nations sought resources, markets, and believed in their racial superiority. While imperialism provided some benefits like infrastructure, it ultimately exploited and destroyed local cultures. The negative consequences included racism, economic exploitation, religious conversion that erased traditions, and spread of disease. Decolonization in Asia and Africa occurred in the mid-20th century as nationalism grew and maintaining colonies became too costly. Independence movements regained control for most former colonies.
Industrialization in European nations drove new imperialism in the late 19th century as they sought new markets and resources. European powers colonized Africa and Asia through different models of imperial rule: settler colonies like Australia focused on controlling land and displacing indigenous peoples; economic imperialism exploited resources and trade in places like China and Africa; and colonial rule in India and parts of Africa involved administering colonies through local elites. All forms of imperialism profoundly impacted local populations through policies, trade, and culture.
The document summarizes revolutionary changes in the Atlantic world between 1750-1850. It discusses how rivalry among European powers intensified in the early 1600s as the Dutch attacked Spanish and Portuguese possessions, and then the British checked Dutch ambitions in the 1600s-1700s. The British then defeated France in the Seven Years War from 1756-1763, taking over French colonial possessions in the Americas and India. It also discusses how the costs of 17th-18th century wars in Europe drove governments to seek new revenue sources, which people then protested and questioned.
The document discusses the transition from feudalism to capitalism in Europe through the rise of merchantilism and the agrarian revolution in Britain. It describes how feudalism was based on a system of lords and serfs tied to the land. The agrarian revolution introduced new farming techniques like crop rotation that increased agricultural productivity and helped provide food for growing urban populations. It also discusses the enclosure movement that consolidated land and displaced peasant farmers. These changes helped supply labor, raw materials, and markets that facilitated the rise of merchantilism and capitalism in Europe.
The document discusses the rise of democracy in Europe. It begins with defining democracy and noting its origins in ancient Greece. It then discusses how democracy spread from Greece to other parts of Europe through revolutions, with the English and French revolutions playing a key role. Before these revolutions, European politics were dominated by absolutism, the divine right of kings, feudalism, and an inseparable church and state. The English revolution from 1640-1689 weakened these systems and established principles like parliamentary control over taxes and free elections. This revolution helped pave the way for capitalism in England by introducing free trade, empowering merchants politically, unifying the country, abolishing serfdom, and consolidating land ownership.

Emily Davison was a British suffragette activist who died after stepping in front of the King's horse during a race in 1913. Her intentions are debated, but she died from injuries sustained in the accident. The Haitian Revolution from 1791-1804 saw slaves overthrow French colonial rule and establish an independent state. The Industrial Revolution transformed Britain into the world's first industrialized society in the late 18th century, bringing both economic growth and hardship for workers. European powers used "science" in the 19th century to justify racial hierarchies that placed whites above non-whites.
The document discusses the causes and expansion of European imperialism from 1870-1914, known as the New Imperialism period. The key causes were economic needs for raw materials and new markets, political competition between European powers to gain status and prestige through colonial empires, and the influence of social ideologies like Social Darwinism. During this time, there was an unprecedented rush by European nations to colonize Africa and Asia, with around 90% of Africa being conquered by European powers in just 20 years. Britain and France competed heavily for control in Africa and Asia, while Germany and other latecomers also sought to build colonial empires.
Empires and Imperialism Review (1750-1900)Nathan Roher
This document provides an overview of empires and imperialism from 1750-1900. It discusses three major empires during this period - the Ottoman Empire, Qing Chinese Empire, and Meiji Japanese Empire. It then covers factors that contributed to the decline of the Ottoman and Qing Empires, such as resisting economic change and underestimating European powers. In contrast, Japan modernized rapidly through reforms inspired by the West, allowing it to avoid colonization. The document also examines European imperialism and its impact on Africa and Asia through the late 19th century.
The Asia And Islamic Empires In Transition33Molly Lynde
The document provides information on the Ming and Qing dynasties in China, the Tokugawa shogunate in Japan, and European trade and influence in Asia between the 15th-19th centuries. It describes China's isolationist policies under the Ming, its decline and replacement by the Qing, and the opium trade imposed by the British that led to the Opium Wars. It also outlines the rise of the Tokugawa shogunate in Japan and its isolationist policies until the arrival of Commodore Perry in 1853, opening Japan to Western trade.
The document discusses colonialism in Nigeria by European powers like Britain in the late 1800s. It explains that at the Berlin Conference, European nations divided up Africa without input from local groups. In Nigeria, Britain established control over Northern Nigeria in 1900 and used tactics to divide ethnic groups. Colonialism disrupted traditional Nigerian society and culture by imposing Christianity, English language and European-style governance. This caused reactions among Nigerians and damaged bonds between communities, as depicted in the novel Things Fall Apart.

The document discusses European imperialism between the 18th and 19th centuries, when industrialized nations like Britain, France, and other European powers expanded their political and economic control over weaker nations in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific. It explains that Western nations sought to control trade, find new markets for goods, absorb excess populations, and spread Christianity and "civilization." Imperial powers justified their actions through social Darwinism and a belief that European races were superior and should dominate the world.

Used for our unit on Imperialism in the 1800s. There is more in here than actually needed. I tend to pick and choose various parts as needed and hide the others.
This document outlines the key concepts and goals for a unit on European imperialism in Africa, China, and Japan between the 19th and early 20th centuries. The unit will examine the causes of European imperialism and its impact on the cultures and development of these regions. Students will learn about major historical events in each area such as the Opium War in China and the Meiji Restoration in Japan. The long-lasting effects of imperialism, such as ongoing impacts in Africa and changes to international relations, will also be discussed.
Colonialism and imperialism began in the 16th century, with colonialism in America using settlement and slow expansion, while 19th century imperialism in Africa and Asia was rapid and caused many problems. Queen Victoria's long reign saw Britain become highly industrialized and the peak of the British Empire. Slavery was widespread during this period, with many slaves taken from Africa. Britain expanded across Africa, seeking new markets and resources, and contended with the Boers in South Africa. The Suez Canal also increased in importance. India became a key part of the British Empire. The US also began exerting financial influence across Latin America through the Monroe Doctrine. The US war with Spain led to independence of Cuba and
The Industrial Revolution began in Britain in the late 18th century and was driven by technological innovations, new energy sources like steam power, and increases in agricultural productivity. Britain was particularly well-suited for the Industrial Revolution due to its political stability, strong merchant class, accumulation of capital, supply of natural resources like coal and iron, and emphasis on practical science. The Industrial Revolution transformed British society, creating a large middle class and urban working class that faced poor living and working conditions. It subsequently spread across Western Europe and to the United States, profoundly changing social and economic structures globally.

Western colonialism in south and west asiaCRYSLER TUMALE
European colonialism in South and West Asia began with Crusades from the 11th-13th centuries, and expanded through naval expeditions by explorers like Diaz, de Gama, and Magellan. They established trade networks importing spices from Asia. Colonialism systematically imposed political rule over colonies to establish economic and political control. Major European trading companies like the Dutch and British East India Companies dominated Asian trade. Growing European imperialism in the 18th-19th centuries led to colonization and transformation of states across South and West Asia, establishing colonies, protectorates and indirect rule to exploit resources and open new markets.
Between 1750 and 1900, the Ottoman Empire and Qing Dynasty of China experienced turbulent times as industrialized European nations extended their political and economic control overseas through imperialism. Both empires resisted economic changes and faced challenges like nationalist revolts and loss of territory to European powers. By the late 1800s, the Ottoman Empire was seen as weak and the Qing Dynasty struggled against European incursions including the Opium Wars, leading to their eventual collapse in the early 20th century.
Industrialized nations like European powers, the United States, Russia, and later Japan strengthened control over their colonies and established overseas empires in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific between the 18th-19th centuries. They did so to gain profits from trade, capture markets for factory goods, absorb excess populations, and achieve national prestige. Imperialism involved the political and economic domination of weaker nations by stronger industrialized countries through military force, cooperation with local elites, and the use of new technologies like guns and steam ships.
Western powers colonized much of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands during the 19th and early 20th centuries due to economic and political motivations. Countries like the Netherlands, Britain, France, the United States, and others established colonial rule over the regions, controlling trade and imposing their cultures and religions. This led to consequences like the establishment of cash crop-based colonial economies and the spread of Christianity. However, some nations like Thailand and China were able to maintain independence.

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldabaux singapore
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.
This document summarizes a study of CEO succession events among the largest 100 U.S. corporations between 2005-2015. The study analyzed executives who were passed over for the CEO role ("succession losers") and their subsequent careers. It found that 74% of passed over executives left their companies, with 30% eventually becoming CEOs elsewhere. However, companies led by succession losers saw average stock price declines of 13% over 3 years, compared to gains for companies whose CEO selections remained unchanged. The findings suggest that boards generally identify the most qualified CEO candidates, though differences between internal and external hires complicate comparisons.
The Difference Between Old, Old And New ImperialismChristina Valadez
The document discusses the differences between old and new imperialism. Old imperialism occurred between 1492-1800 and was motivated by goals like acquiring gold, glory, and spreading religion. New imperialism occurred between 1870-1914 and was primarily driven by industrialization and nationalism. It involved European powers directly controlling colonies for their economic and political benefit, such as accessing raw materials, labor, and new markets. The document provides historical context about the time periods and motivations behind each type of imperialism.
The document discusses the economic motivations and forces behind the new imperialism in the late 19th/early 20th century. It states that the capitalist class in countries like the United States sought to preserve and expand their domestic capitalism through empire building to secure large export markets, cheap raw materials, and guaranteed consumption. It also describes how multinational corporations worked to manipulate governments in the Third World to ensure access to markets and resources.
The document summarizes the key motives and factors behind the period of new imperialism from the late 19th century. Economic factors drove Western nations to seek new markets and sources of raw materials from Africa and Asia. Political rivalries between European powers also contributed as nations competed for global power and influence. The new imperialism was further motivated by ideas of racial and national superiority that justified controlling foreign lands and peoples.
The document discusses old and new imperialism. It notes that while imperialism had some positive impacts like expanding markets and resources, there were also many negative impacts. The document then discusses some of the purported social benefits of imperialism like Americanization, but notes that these were not always positive. It finally acknowledges that "there were many things they could have done that would have done better."

This presentation is a student-teacher created slide show to accompany Ch. 5 from the textbook Exploring Globalization (Gardner & Lavold, 2007, McGraw-Hill Ryerson).
The document summarizes the key motives for new imperialism, including economic, political, and social factors. Economically, industrialized nations sought new markets for goods and sources of raw materials as their home resources declined. Politically, rivalry between nations led to competition over colonies. Socially, imperialists viewed other cultures as inferior and believed it was their duty to spread their civilization through colonial rule.
1) Historians have debated the origins and aims of imperialism, discussing whether it was driven by economic or strategic factors, whether it was accidental or planned, and whether the goal was civilizing other peoples or self-interested exploitation.
2) Definitions of imperialism include political domination, economic exploitation, military subjugation, and the colonization of territories by settlers, but it can also refer more broadly to the growth and maintenance of an empire's power and influence.
3) While colonization involves the transfer of populations as permanent settlers, imperialism refers more to the exercise of power and control over other countries through various direct and indirect means.
The document discusses the rise and fall of European imperialism from 1800 to 1914. It explains that during this period, European control of global landmass expanded dramatically from 35% to 85%. The long legacy of European imperialism included establishing the foundations of modern global society through political, economic, social, and cultural influences around the world. The era also transformed European societies and politics. The document then analyzes the differences between "old" and "new" imperialism, noting that the latter period from 1830s to 1930s was driven by industrialization, new ideologies like nationalism and social Darwinism, and technologies like steamships that enabled further European expansion and dominance of other regions.
The document provides background information on European and American imperialism between 1850-1914. It discusses the imperialist vision of powerful nations exerting political and economic control over weaker ones. Nearly half the world's population experienced some degree of imperialism as European nations expanded globally. The document then examines the causes of European imperialism including nationalism, economic competition, and a missionary spirit. It also discusses the effects of colonization, control of colonial economies, and spread of Christianity. The document outlines reasons for American imperialism involving expansionism, markets, and naval bases. It discusses the annexation of Hawaii by the U.S. and provides quotes against American imperialism by William Jennings Bryan and Mark Twain.
Late 19th century European states expanded their imperial control over other regions and peoples through increasing political and economic dominance. Motivations included acquiring raw materials, new markets, and strategic locations. Technological advantages in transportation, military equipment, and communications facilitated the Scramble for Africa and colonization of Asia, Oceania, and parts of the Americas. Over time, colonized peoples increasingly resisted imperial rule, with movements like the Indian National Congress demanding more self-governance and eventually independence.
The document discusses the period of New Imperialism between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. During this time, European powers, the United States, and Japan expanded their colonial control over regions in Asia and Africa. Motivations for New Imperialism included seeking new markets and raw materials to support industrialized economies, as well as national rivalries.
1. Colonialism and imperialism arose in the late 19th century as European powers sought to expand their territories for economic, political, and cultural reasons. Major factors driving expansion included the desire for raw materials, new markets, and national prestige.
2. The largest colonial empires were the British and French empires. Conflicts arose as powers competed for territory in Africa and elsewhere. The Berlin Conference formalized the "scramble for Africa" and partitioned the continent.
3. Colonization had both harmful consequences, such as economic exploitation and loss of culture, and potential benefits such as transmission of technology. The effects were complex and varied between places.
Industrialized nations like European powers, the United States, Russia, and later Japan strengthened control over their colonies and established overseas empires in Asia, Africa, and the Pacific between the 18th-19th centuries. They did so to gain profits from trade, capture markets for factory goods, absorb excess population, and achieve national prestige. Imperialism involved exploiting weaker nations' resources and asserting the dominance of European races through the ideology of social Darwinism. Colonizers used military might, alliances with local elites, and economic coercion to partition and dominate Africa and Asia.
Imperialism involved powerful nations dominating other countries politically, economically, and culturally in the 19th century. European countries were able to conquer large areas due to beliefs in their racial and cultural superiority, as well as their need for resources from industrialization. Some reasons for imperialism included securing cheap raw materials, new markets for goods, strategic locations, and prestige. While imperialism helped develop some colonized nations, it also exploited them and had long-lasting negative political and economic impacts.
The document discusses how European imperialism in Africa was driven by economic interests, technological advances, and a sense of national pride and competition between European powers in the late 19th century. Europeans sought Africa's natural resources and believed their culture was superior. New technologies like steam power and quinine extraction allowed greater exploitation of Africa's interior. European nations wanted to build their empires and global prestige through colonial expansion. While they claimed to civilize Africans, imperialism often disrupted local cultures and caused harm.
The document discusses the period of new imperialism in the late 19th century. It describes some of the economic motivations for European nations and the United States to engage in colonial expansion, such as the desire for raw materials from Africa and Asia to fuel industrial growth. Political rivalries between nations also contributed to the scramble for African territory. The new imperialism resulted in Europe dominating much of Asia and Africa politically and economically by 1900.
