Latin america&mex snapshot
Late 19th century and 20th century Latin America saw political, cultural, social, and economic continuities and changes. Politically, regional conflicts between states continued and military leaders often assumed political leadership roles. Culturally, Roman Catholicism remained influential and social classes remained divided. However, liberation theology and Protestant Christianity also grew. Economically, exports and foreign investment dominated but industrialization increased during the World Wars. The Great Depression weakened economies while drug trafficking brought both economic and political impacts. Revolutionary groups challenged governments and the Mexican Revolution led to nationalization.
Americas billianaires
The document discusses several American billionaires throughout history and their philanthropic endeavors:
- Bill Gates' Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has an endowment of $33 billion, making it the wealthiest charity in the world. Warren Buffett donated $31 billion to the foundation, the largest single donation ever.
- Andrew Carnegie spent his later years focused on education and world peace, donating over $350 million to build libraries, schools, churches, and hospitals.
- John D. Rockefeller donated more than $500 million to philanthropic causes during his lifetime.
- While many billionaires of the Gilded Age made their wealth unethically, some like Weightman who made medicines, were exceptions who earned
Latin america overview
Latin America's geography has affected its development through regionalism, resources, and important geographic features like mountains and rivers. Early civilizations like the Maya, Aztecs, and Inca adapted well to their environments but later declined due to factors such as disease and invasion. European colonialism shaped Latin America politically, economically, and socially from 1500-1825. Independence movements led the regions to gain freedom, but new nations struggled with dictators, economic reliance on cash crops, and powerful oligarchies. The United States established policies like the Monroe Doctrine and Good Neighbor Policy that influenced Latin America. Countries also dealt with issues like civil wars, drug cartels, deforestation, and revolutions.

APUSH Lecture Ch. 30-31 Nixon to Reagan
The document provides an overview of major events and issues during the Nixon and Ford presidencies from 1969-1977. It discusses Nixon's election and pledge to end the Vietnam War through "Vietnamization," his opening of relations with China, and his domestic policies. However, the Watergate scandal erupted and Nixon resigned in 1974 due to his role in the cover-up. Ford then pardoned Nixon but lost reelection in 1976. The Vietnam War continued despite Nixon's efforts, and the 1973 Oil Crisis had major economic impacts.
(7) the roaring twenties
The document provides an overview of several key events and trends in the United States during the 1920s. It describes the post-World War I recession, Red Scare, Palmer Raids, and Sacco and Vanzetti trial. It then summarizes the presidencies of Harding, Coolidge, and Hoover, their support of business and laissez-faire policies. Major factors in 1920s prosperity included the rise of the automobile industry, new mass production technologies, and the age of mass consumption fueled by advertising and consumer credit. However, prosperity was uneven and some groups like farmers and workers faced difficulties. The Temperance movement also led to Prohibition in 1919.
Traditional regional integration in Latin America
This document discusses U.S. foreign policy and economic relations with countries in the Caribbean region over time. Some key points:
- U.S. policy in the Caribbean has historically been influenced by broader Latin American policy and the Monroe Doctrine. During the Cold War period, the Caribbean gained major strategic importance for the U.S.
- Under Carter, economic assistance to Caribbean countries increased but foreign relations became focused more on bilateral approaches under Reagan and in the post-Cold War period.
- Caribbean countries seek a trade partner, assistance, migration opportunities from the U.S. but the U.S. also faces domestic and international challenges that draw attention away from the Caribbean.

The america in the 19th century
The document summarizes key developments in America during the 19th century. It describes changes in everyday life, technology, transportation, politics, the economy, art, education and immigration. America transitioned from a largely agricultural society to an increasingly industrialized and urbanized nation, while also expanding its territory and dealing with tensions over slavery. Education remained limited for many groups during this transformative period in American history.
Comparative hist
The document discusses cultural changes that occurred in the United States during the 1920s. [1] It describes how the post-World War I economic boom led to new attitudes around sexuality, prohibition, and consumerism. [2] Flappers, speakeasies, movies, jazz music, and increased leisure activities came to symbolize the era. [3] However, some saw these changes as threatening traditional American values and morality.
Apush review-key-concept-2.3
1) Key Concept 2.3 discusses the increasing interactions within the Atlantic World between the 17th and 18th centuries and how this impacted colonial development. Religious, economic, and cultural exchanges grew significantly.
2) The growth of slavery and triangular trade connected Africa, Europe, and the Americas in a complex system. Racial hierarchies emerged among the British colonies.
3) Over time, Britain sought to strengthen imperial control through policies like the Navigation Acts, but this met with resistance from colonists accustomed to autonomy. The salutary neglect period ended as imperial control tightened after the Seven Years War.
Ch. 13 notes section 2 3

America Compared 2
The document discusses immigration to the United States from 1870 to 1920. During this time, the US transformed from an agrarian to an urban society due to industrialization and the need for labor. Millions of immigrants arrived from farms and villages in Europe, mixing native and foreign cultures. The sheer volume of immigration over this period from diverse sources gave the US a unique character unlike any other nation.
Effects of the Depression on Different Groups in USA.
Effects of the Depression on different groups in society: workers, women, farmers, African-Americans.
North america intro
North America includes Canada, the United States, Mexico, Greenland, and the Caribbean islands. While Canada and the US share a colonial past and were both colonized by European powers, they have distinct histories of independence movements - the US had a revolution to gain independence from Britain, while Canada separated peacefully. Mexico also had a bloody revolution to gain independence, first from Spain and then from France. Native peoples inhabited North America before European colonization, and issues around indigenous rights continue to be important in countries like Canada.
Modern Latin America
The document discusses the history and current state of Latin America and Venezuela. It describes how Britain and the US came to have economic and political influence in Latin America in the 19th century. It then explains that Venezuela has immense oil wealth but suffers from poverty, violence, and a repressive government under Hugo Chavez, who maintains power through propaganda instead of addressing the country's problems. Despite grounds for revolution, the people continue supporting their leader.
Immigration in the USA
The document provides a history of immigration to the United States from the 15th century to present day. It describes the various reasons different ethnic groups immigrated, including Germans escaping poverty and religious persecution, Italians fleeing natural disasters and overpopulation, and Chinese migrating during the California Gold Rush of 1848. Ellis Island served as the primary immigration station from 1892 to 1954, where all arrivals were interviewed and given medical exams, with around 2% being denied entry. The Statue of Liberty has long symbolized freedom and opportunity for immigrants arriving in New York Harbor.

Religious fundamentalism. What was the 'Monkey Trial'? Attitudes towards Black Americans and racial minorities. Who were the KKK? The response of the black people.
Immigration and Urbanization
Political machines like Tammany Hall provided social services and jobs to immigrants in cities in exchange for votes, leading to corruption. Boss Tweed and the "Tweed Ring" controlled Tammany Hall and embezzled millions, leading to reforms like the Pendleton Civil Service Act to establish merit-based government hiring. Most late 1800s/early 1900s presidents pushed reforms, with the exceptions of Grant and Taft who maintained the status quo.
Panama l.a.
The document summarizes the construction of two major civil engineering projects: the Panama Canal and the Los Angeles Aqueduct. The Panama Canal took two attempts to complete, with the Americans finishing it from 1904-1914 after disease killed many French workers in their initial attempt. The Los Angeles Aqueduct, built from 1905-1913 under William Mulholland, brought water from the Owens Valley to Los Angeles and enabled its growth, though drought and a dam collapse later caused water shortages. Both projects involved overcoming immense technical challenges to transport water or ships across long distances.
Ch4
The document summarizes the founding and early history of several British colonies in North America. It describes how the Puritans founded Massachusetts to escape religious persecution in England. It then discusses other colonies like Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, the Carolinas and Georgia - noting the reasons for their founding and some key events. It also provides context on the growth of slavery and England's regulation of colonial trade through mercantilism and the Navigation Acts.
Theme4pt2pwrpnt
1) The document discusses the English colonies in North America, focusing on the Chesapeake colonies of Virginia and Maryland as well as the New England colonies established by Puritan settlers.
2) In the Chesapeake colonies, wealthy planters dominated local government and most colonists were indentured servants. The colonies struggled with labor shortages.
3) The Puritan settlers established religiously motivated colonies in New England like the Massachusetts Bay Colony to separate themselves from the Church of England. They sought to establish a "City upon a Hill" as an example.
California
California developed its political and socioeconomic structures in the 1890s through large public works projects like dams, aqueducts, and roads. The Los Angeles aqueduct took over 6 years to build and helped stabilize infrastructure. Universities like Stanford and UC Berkeley expanded dramatically during this time. By 1940, California's population reached 6.9 million, with most migrants coming from Europe, and some from Japan, Mexico, and Africa. The entertainment industry also grew in California during the 20th century, with the motion picture industry establishing itself in Los Angeles. Political and social movements in the 1960s, like the Free Speech Movement and hippie movement, expressed opposition and introduced new values that shaped California culture. Governance of California remains

History, Science, & Trade
History is the study of past events through written records, oral traditions, and archaeological evidence. It cannot be repeated or tested in the same way as science, but relies on reliable eyewitness accounts, logical consistency, and corroborating evidence. Genetic testing has shown that all humans are descended from one man who lived in Africa around 60,000 years ago, demonstrating our shared ancestry.

Dependency_Theory_and_the_Latin_American_Experience.ppt.pdf
Dependency theory argues that poorer countries' lack of development is caused by their economic dependence on richer countries. This dependence began with colonialism, where colonizing powers exploited poorer nations' land, labor, and resources to enrich themselves. Poorer countries primarily export raw materials to richer countries at low prices, then import finished goods made from those materials at higher prices. This unequal exchange hinders poorer nations' ability to develop strong domestic industries and economies. Dependency theory was developed in Latin America to explain the region's underdevelopment and critique explanations that blamed internal factors alone.
Staar 07 the roaring twenties
After World War I, Americans faced difficulties adjusting to peace such as a recession, job losses, and isolationism. In the 1920s, Republican presidents pursued laissez-faire economic policies and limited government interference in business.

By the late 20th century, many countries faced issues like poverty, inequality, corruption, and violence exacerbated by foreign economic interventions.
Chapter 19 section 4
Poverty and discrimination plagued many Americans in the postwar era. Critics argued that while material wealth increased, quality of life had not due to an emphasis on conformity. Beatniks rejected this conformity. Many lived in inner city poverty or rural areas, while African Americans and other minorities faced discrimination. Urban renewal projects displaced the poor and failed to solve economic issues, while public housing led to greater concentration of poverty. Government termination policies for Native Americans and exploitation of migrant workers also exacerbated problems in this era.

Genetic testing has shown that all humans are descended from one man who lived in Africa around 60,000 years ago, demonstrating our shared ancestry. Scientific studies of tree rings, ice cores, and other records have helped uncover what caused catastrophic periods in history like the Dark Ages through evidence of extreme weather and volcanic activity.
