Alfred T. Mahan, "Influence of Sea Power on History, 1660-1783 ...The interesting and significant feature of this changing attitude is the turning of the eyes outward, instead of inward only, to seek the welfare of the country. To affirm the importance of distant markets, and the relation to them of our own immense powers of production, implies logically the recognition of the link that joins the products and the markets,--that is, the carrying trade; the three together constituting that chain of maritime power to which Great Britain owes her wealth and greatness. Further, is it too much to say that, as two of these links, the shipping and the markets, are exterior to our own borders, the acknowledgment of them carries with it a view of the relations of the United States to the world radically distinct from the simple idea of self-sufficingness?

Excerpt from "Selling Civilization" . . . In distinction to the imperialism generally recognized by geographers, that is, military and political control over territory, we can see that the United States' extension of power beyond its national borders proceeded through other channels, carried with it and created multiple meanings and knowledges, and fashioned different types of geopolitical and spatial arrangements. In this primarily economic empire, the 'others' that Americans were confronting were considered not political subjects but potential consumers; with the exception of the women missionaries to China and the few women 'explorers', the encounter between American women and 'others' was mediated through advertising images, popular media and material objects that reinforced and challenged ideals of domesticity and notions of 'otherness'; and knowledges of the world were derived as much from a logic of profit and loss as they were from a worldview based on a racialized 'family tree of man' (McClintock 1995, 39). Let me explore in more depth these issues, using my examinations of late nineteenth-century American international businesses as empirical evidence to ground the discussion. The author's assertion that Americans saw people from foreign nations more as potential consumers than political subjects challenges which of the following widespread beliefs?

Mark Twain.

But the saloon, whose open door you passed in the hall, is always there. The smell of it has followed you up. Here is a door. Listen! That short hacking cough, that tiny, helpless wail—what do they mean? They mean that the soiled bow of white [a sign of a recent birth] you saw on the door downstairs will have another story to tell—Oh! a sadly familiar story—before the day is at an end.

John Muir, "American Forests" (1897) Emerson says that things refuse to be mismanaged long.

The Seneca Falls Convention.

Susan B. Anthony 1873 The preamble of the Federal Constitution says: We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquillity, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people - women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government. Which of the following historical developments in the first half of the 19th century BEST represents the emergence of the sentiments expressed by Susan B. Anthony above?

George Washington's Farewell Address.

The League of Nations Must Be Revised (1919), Henry Cabot Lodge Our one great object is to make all these people Americans so that we may call on them to place America first and serve America as they have done in the war just closed. We can not Americanize them if we are continually thrusting them back into the quarrels and difficulties of the countries from which they came to us. We shall fill this land with political disputes about the troubles and quarrels of other countries. We shall have a large portion of our people voting not on American questions and not on what concerns the United States but dividing on issues which concern foreign countries alone. That is an unwholesome and perilous condition to force upon this country. We must avoid it. We ought to reduce to the lowest possible point the foreign questions in which we involve ourselves. Never forget that this league is primarily—I might say overwhelmingly—a political organization, and I object strongly to having the policies of the United States turn upon disputes where deep feeling is aroused but in which we have no direct interest. It will all tend to delay the Americanization of our great population, and it is more important not only to the United States but to the peace of the world to make all these people good Americans than it is to determine that some piece of territory should belong to one European country rather than to another. For this reason I wish to limit strictly our interference in the affairs of Europe and of Africa. We have interests of our own in Asia and in the Pacific which we must guard upon our own account, but the less we undertake to play the part of umpire and thrust ourselves into European conflicts the better for the United States and for the world. Henry Cabot Lodge's rejection of the Treaty of Versailles has the most in common with
