test moved further back to friday, since band members will be at the veterans parade tomorrow morning.
recap- old diplomacy vs. new diplomacy, isolationalism vs. imperialism.
when we switched over to imperialism, we didnt make a show out of it, we just did it. like roosevelt's "speak softly and carry a big stick". like when columbia was unhappy about the panama canal, we sent our navy down just to send the message, 'dont mess with it'. the Monroe Doctrine was a warning to Europe telling those countries to stay out of the western, specifically latin america, because we didnt want them to become european colonies. we were the middle man between europe and latin america.
political cartoon about the big stick diplomacy. shows roosevelt...carrying a big stick....thats all i can see of the pic, really. its on the overhead projecter. bad clarity.
Dollar Diplomacy-
subsituting dollars for bullets. like bribing. we loaned out money to countries so we'd be in economical control of the countries we lent to. this benefitted those countries, but that wasnt really the reason we were loaning.
Missionary Diplomacy-
the usa would not recognize governments that were corrupt or undemocratic. basically the countries we didnt like didnt get formal recognition from us.
i have successfully uploaded the link to shannon's and my video onto my page.
so....bruns is just going over what would be beneficial to review for upcoming tests. he is also once again explaining how the test will work. and to end the class today, ally will finally finish presenting her ch9 thing. we dont have to take nots because we've already heard all this stuff a zillion times, but its good review.
