Explain how social categories, roles, and practices have been maintained or have changed over time.

Many states, such as the Mughal and Ottoman empires, adopted practices to accommodate the ethnic and religious diversity of their subjects or to utilize the economic, political, and military contributions of different ethnic or religious groups. In other cases, states suppressed diversity or limited certain groups' roles in society, politics, or the economy. Differential treatment of groups in society, politics, and the economy: Expulsion of Jews from Spain and Portugal; the acceptance of Jews in the Ottoman Empire Restrictive policies against Han Chinese in Qing China Varying status of different classes of women within the Ottoman Empire Imperial conquests and widening global economic opportunities contributed to the formation of new political and economic elites, including in China with the transition to the Qing Dynasty and in the Americas with the rise of the Casta system.

Explain how various environmental factors contributed to the development of varied patterns of migration from 1750 to 1900.

Migration in many cases was influenced by changes in demographics in both industrialized and unindustrialized societies that presented challenges to existing patterns of living. Because of the nature of new modes of transportation, both internal and external migrants increasingly relocated to cities. This pattern contributed to the significant global urbanization of the 19th century. The new methods of transportation also allowed for many migrants to return, periodically or permanently, to their home societies. Many individuals chose freely to relocate, often in search of work. The new global capitalist economy continued to rely on coerced and semicoerced labor migration, including slavery, Chinese and Indian indentured servitude, and convict labor ---1.) Abolishment slavery= no cheap labor + ^raw material demand= labor migration to fill slave labor Indentured Servitude: an agreement where people would work for a specific amount of years and in return, were granted a trip to the new world Contract labor: labor system where Chinese and Indians worked for very low wages and were treated as poorly as the slave; same work conditions as slaves Penal Colony: are where states would send convict to work there; built railroads, kept gov records 2.) Home challenges; starvation, famine, bad climate in home state causing migration in hopes of better opportunity → Great Potato Famine: decrease of potatoes in ireland (potatoes were essential food for low class Ireland) cause much starvation and in return Irish people migrating (many to the US) Return of migrants: Japanese agricultural workers in the Pacific Lebanese merchants in the Americas Italian industrial workers in Argentina 3.) Settler colonies: colonies where people form the imperialism states migrates to, to live there; many engineers and geologist migrated to these colonies (S Asia/ Africa) bc of the imperialist state wanting to expand industrialization → engineers designed and built, railroads, roads, and areas for raw materials Diaspora: a scattered population whose origin lies in a different geographic location

Explain the causes and effects of movements to redistribute economic resources.

Movements to redistribute land and resources developed within states in Africa, Asia, and Latin America, sometimes advocating communism or socialism. Land and resource redistribution: Communist Revolution for Vietnamese independence Causes of movements to redistribute economic resources: Communism: ideology arguing that in the future all social classes will be abolished and everyone will be equal Socialism: idea that the gov would help decrease inequality through healthcare, food stamps, housing -imperial gov was too weak to stop local advancements/ rebellions Effects of movement to redistribute economic resources: White Revolution (Iran): bloodless; gov bought land for wealth land owners and resold it to peasants at a small price Kerala (India): tenants gained the right to purchase land/ full ownership Ethiopia (India): land redistribution

Energy technologies, including the use of petroleum and nuclear power, raised productivity and increased the production of material goods More effective forms of birth control gave women greater control over fertility, transformed reproductive practices, and contributed to declining rates of fertility in much of the world The Green Revolution and commercial agriculture increased productivity and sustained the earth's growing population as it spread chemically and genetically modified forms of agriculture.

Explain how industrialization caused change in existing social hierarchies and standards of living.

New social classes, including the middle class and the industrial working class, developed. While women and often children in working class families typically held wage-earning jobs to supplement their families' income, middle-class women who did not have the same economic demands to satisfy were increasingly limited to roles in the household or roles focused on child development. The rapid urbanization that accompanied global capitalism at times led to a variety of challenges, including pollution, poverty, increased crime, public health crises, housing shortages, and insufficient infrastructure to accommodate urban growth. -- aristocrats were declining due to businesses

Compare processes by which state power shifted in various parts of the world from 1750 to 1900.

Non-state to state colonial control: Shift from the private ownership of the Congo by King Leopold II to the Belgium government Shift from the Dutch East India Company to Dutch government control in Indonesia and Southeast Asia Settler colonies established in empires: New Zealand (settler colony) --> 1.) Non-state to state colonial control Congo Free state: ruled by King Leopold; cash crop production state → King Leopold II: Belgium ruler of Congo; known for coerced labor and killing to gain wild rubber for tires and bicycles 2.) European imperialism in Africa (warfare) Scramble for Africa: European states partitioned Africa among themselves → Britain in West Africa → Belgium in the Congo → French in West Africa Berlin Conference: a conference by Otto Von Bismark; called to Eur nations would avoid war with each other in claiming Africa 3.) European Diplomacy tactic Sphere of Influence: when Europeans came and carved out an area of the state's territory and used it for their economical advantage Settler Colonies: people from the imperial word coming to live in the conquered states Non-colonized nations: Ethiopia and Thailand avoided colonization; Ethiopia expanded its empire after defeating Italy

Explain the extent to which the effects of the Cold War were similar in the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.

Peoples and states around the world challenged the existing political and social order in varying ways, leading to unprecedented worldwide conflicts. Hopes for greater self-government were largely unfulfilled following the World War I; however, in the years following the World War II, increasing anti imperialist sentiment contributed to the dissolution of empires and the restructuring of states. The Cold War conflict extended beyond its basic ideological origins to have profound effects on economic, political, social, and cultural aspects of global events The role of the state in the domestic economy varied, and new institutions of global association emerged and continued to develop throughout the century. States responded in a variety of ways to the economic challenges of the 20th century.

Explain how and why globalization changed culture over time.

Political and social changes of the 20th century led to changes in the arts and in the second half of the century, popular and consumer culture became more global. Global culture: Music: Reggae Movies: Bollywood Social media: Facebook, Twitter Television: BBC Sports: World Cup soccer, the Olympics Arts, entertainment, and popular culture increasingly reflected the influence of a globalized society. Consumer culture became globalized and transcended national borders. Global consumerism: Online commerce: Alibaba, eBay Global brands: Toyota, Coca-Cola

Explain the extent to which science and technology brought change in the period from 1900 to the present.

Rapid advances in science and technology altered the understanding of the universe and the natural world and led to advances in communication, transportation, industry, agriculture, and medicine. New modes of communication— including radio communication, cellular communication, and the internet—as well as transportation, including air travel and shipping containers, reduced the problem of geographic distance. Energy technologies, including the use of petroleum and nuclear power, raised productivity and increased the production of material goods. More effective forms of birth control gave women greater control over fertility, transformed reproductive practices, and contributed to declining rates of fertility in much of the world. The Green Revolution and commercial agriculture increased productivity and sustained the earth's growing population as it spread chemically and genetically modified forms of agriculture. Medical innovations, including vaccines and antibiotics, increased the ability of humans to survive and live longer lives States responded in a variety of ways to the economic challenges of the 20th century. Rights-based discourses challenged old assumptions about race, class, gender, and religion. In much of the world, access to education as well as participation in new political and professional roles became more inclusive in terms of race, class, gender, and religion. Political and social changes of the 20th century led to changes in the arts and in the second half of the century, popular and consumer culture became more global. Arts, entertainment, and popular culture increasingly reflected the influence of a globalized society. Consumer culture became globalized and transcended national borders.

Explain the relative significance of the causes of global conflict in the period 1900 to the present.

Rapid advances in science and technology altered the understanding of the universe and the natural world and led to advances in communication, transportation, industry, agriculture, and medicine. Peoples and states around the world challenged the existing political and social order in varying ways, leading to unprecedented worldwide conflicts. The West dominated the global political order at the beginning of the 20th century, but both land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states by the century's end. The older, land-based Ottoman, Russian, and Qing empires collapsed due to a combination of internal and external factors. These changes in Russia eventually led to the communist revolution. States around the world challenged the existing political and social order, including the Mexican Revolution that arose as a result of a political crisis.

Explain the various responses to increasing globalization from 1900 to present.

Responses to rising cultural and economic globalization took a variety of forms. Responses to economic globalization: Anti-IMF and anti-World Bank activism Advent of locally developed social media (Weibo in China) 1.) Protests Battle For Seattle: protest mvment at the meeting of the World Trade Organization (meetings goal for global commerce/ free trade); thought WTO lowered labor standards, envor degradation, decrease human rights; 40,000 protest World Social Forum: embodied the ideals of Anti-globalisationists; tried to create equitable world International Monetary Fund (IMF)/ World Bank: work together to foster global monetary cooperation, reduce poverty -protests against IMF/World bank bc their policies only benefit the rich at the expenses of poorer countries 2.)

Explain changes and continuities in systems of slavery in the period from 1450 to 1750.

Slavery in Africa continued in its traditional forms, including incorporation of slaves into households and the export of slaves to the Mediterranean and the Indian Ocean regions. The growth of the plantation economy increased the demand for slaves in the Americas, leading to significant demographic, social, and cultural changes. ---Indentured Servants: laborers worked in exchange for the journey Coerced labor: laborers doing worked against their will Hacienda System: landholdings granted to Spanish nobles to lease or own Encomienda system: granted a certain number of natives; offer native protection, educations, Christianity; natives give labor in turn Peons: Hacienda workers; worked in estates, taxed, debted Mita system: from Inca; compelling native villages to send a portion of their men to mine silver Chattel slavery: ppl owned laborers

Explain the effects of the development of state power from 1450 to 1750

Explain how political, economic, and cultural factors affected society from 1450 to 1750.

The Atlantic trading system involved the movement of labor—including slaves—and the mixing of African, American, and European cultures and peoples, with all parties contributing to this cultural synthesis. 1.) Africa African Slave Trade: Afri states were weakened by the slave trade → Kingdom of the Kongo: African that declined bc of slave trade with Eur bc many captured sales were men, created the rise of polygyny Polygyny: a practice where men take more than one wife -decline in pop, but maize and manioc grew too

Compare the ways in which the United States and the Soviet Union sought to maintain influence over the course of the Cold War.

The Cold War produced new military alliances, including NATO and the Warsaw Pact, and led to nuclear proliferation and proxy wars between and within postcolonial states in Latin America, Africa, and Asia. Proxy wars: Korean War Angolan Civil War Sandinista-Contras conflict in Nicaragua How Soviet Union and US maintain influence throughout the Cold War: 1.) Military alliances North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO): mili alliance between US and W Eur in order to prevent the communist invasion of the Soviet Union Warsaw Pact: made in response to NATO; was between USSR and E Eur 2.)

Explain how internal and external factors contributed to change in various states after 1900.

The West dominated the global political order at the beginning of the 20th century, but both land-based and maritime empires gave way to new states by the century's end. The older, land-based Ottoman, Russian, and Qing empires collapsed due to a combination of internal and external factors. These changes in Russia eventually led to communist revolution. States around the world challenged the existing political and social order, including the Mexican Revolution that arose as a result of political crisis. Russian Revolution: Cause: → the defeat of WWI; working class and soldiers >:$ abt elite privileges → gov didn't work on building a strong infrastructure (railroads, roads)= weak econ → no suffrage or edu rights → Bloody Sunday Massacre in 1905: gov shot, protesters protesting rights → lost Crimean War to the Ott; lost Russo-Japanese War to Japan (bc of J indus)= Rus weaken Effects: → Bolsheviks: groups of Rus communists who overthrew the Tsar gov; rep the oppressed working class in Rus → Vladimir Lenin: leaders of the Bolsheviks group → Bolsheviks and Lenin est communist gov (abolish free trade, nationalized factories/industries, redistribute crops to feed urban workers)

Explain the causes and consequences of World War II.

The causes of World War II included the unsustainable peace settlement after World War I, the global economic crisis engendered by the Great Depression, continued imperialist aspirations, and especially the rise to power of fascist and totalitarian regimes that resulted in the aggressive militarism of Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler.

Explain the relative significance of the effects of imperialism from 1750 to 1900

The development of industrial capitalism led to increased standards of living for some, and to continued improvement in manufacturing methods that increased the availability, affordability, and variety of consumer goods. As states industrialized, they also expanded existing overseas empires and established new colonies and transoceanic relationships. The 18th century marked the beginning of an intense period of revolution and rebellion against existing governments, leading to the establishment of new nation-states around the world. As a result of the emergence of transoceanic empires and a global capitalist economy, migration patterns changed dramatically, and the numbers of migrants increased significantly

Explain the extent to which industrialization brought change from 1750 to 1900.

The development of industrial capitalism led to increased standards of living for some, and to continued improvement in manufacturing methods that increased the availability, affordability, and variety of consumer goods. Railroads, steamships, and the telegraph made exploration, development, and communication possible in interior regions globally, which led to increased trade and migration. The 18th century marked the beginning of an intense period of revolution and rebellion against existing governments, leading to the establishment of new nation-states around the world. Enlightenment philosophies applied new ways of understanding and empiricist approaches to both the natural world and human relationships; they also reexamined the role that religion played in public life and emphasized the importance of reason. Philosophers developed new political ideas about the individual, natural rights, and the social contract. The rise and diffusion of Enlightenment thought that questioned established traditions in all areas of life often preceded revolutions and rebellions against existing governments. Nationalism also became a major force shaping the historical development of states and empires

Explain how technology shaped economic production over time.

The development of machines, including steam engines and the internal combustion engine, made it possible to take advantage of both existing and vast newly discovered resources of energy stored in fossil fuels, specifically coal and oil. The fossil fuels revolution greatly increased the energy available to human societies. The "second industrial revolution" led to new methods in the production of steel, chemicals, electricity, and precision machinery during the second half of the 19th century. Railroads, steamships, and the telegraph made exploration, development, and communication possible in interior regions globally, which led to increased trade and migration.

Explain the effects of innovation on the Chinese economy over time.

The economy of Song China became increasingly commercialized while continuing to depend on free peasant and artisanal labor. The econ flourished as a result of increased production capacity, expanding trade networks, and innovations in agriculture/ -Champa Rice: rice the matured early, resist drought, harvest 3x/yr; food=^pop=^econ=wealth Grand Canal: waterway linking the Yellow and Yangtze river; made it easy to trade=^trade=^econ Porcelain: ceramic material; "fine China"; luxury item/shows wealth=^demand=^trade=^econ -increased iron production→ 32,000 suits of armor & 16 mill iron arrowheads/ yr Paper money: money in China that replaced metal coins, due to there not being enough metal Flying Money: Chinese credit system to merchants; an early form of currency Gunpowder: explosive; fireworks for the imperial court; by Daoist to find immortal liquid

Explain the causes and effects of the ideological struggle of the Cold War

The global balance of economic and political power shifted during and after World War II and rapidly evolved into the Cold War. The democracy of the United States and the authoritarian communist Soviet Union emerged as superpowers, which led to ideological conflict and a power struggle between capitalism and communism across the globe. Groups and individuals, including the Non-Aligned Movement, opposed and promoted alternatives to the existing economic, political, and social orders. Non-Aligned Movement: Sukarno in Indonesia; birth of the non-aligned movement Kwame Nkrumah in Ghana; African unity

Explain the development of economic systems, ideologies, and institutions and how they contributed to change in the period from 1750 to 1900.

The global nature of trade and production contributed to the proliferation of large-scale transnational businesses that relied on new practices in banking and finance. Transnational businesses: Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) Unilever based in England and the Netherlands and operating in British West Africa and the Belgian Congo Financial instruments: Stock markets Limited-liability corporations

Compare the methods by which various empires increased their influence from 1450-1750

The interconnection of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres made possible by transoceanic voyaging, transformed trade, and had a significant social impact on the world. In some cases, the increase and intensification of interactions between newly connected hemispheres expanded the reach and furthered the development of existing religions, and contributed to religious conflicts and the development of syncretic belief systems and practices. Empires achieved increased scope and influence around the world, shaping and being shaped by the diverse populations they incorporated. Imperial expansion relied on the increased use of gunpowder, cannons, and armed trade to establish large empires in both hemispheres. Land empires included the Manchu in Central and East Asia; Mughal in South and Central Asia; Ottoman in Southern Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa; and the Safavids in the Middle East. Political and religious disputes led to rivalries and conflict between states

Explain how economic developments from 1450 to 1750 affected social structures over time.

The interconnection of the Eastern and Western Hemispheres, made possible by transoceanic voyaging, transformed trade and had a significant social impact on the world. Knowledge, scientific learning, and technology from the Classical, Islamic, and Asian worlds spread, facilitating European technological developments and innovation. The developments included the production of new tools, innovations in ship designs, and an improved understanding of regional wind and currents patterns—all of which made transoceanic travel and trade possible. Although the world's productive systems continued to be heavily centered on agriculture, major changes occurred in agricultural labor, the systems and locations of manufacturing, gender and social structures, and environmental processes. The demand for labor intensified as a result of the growing global demand for raw materials and finished products. Traditional peasant agriculture increased and changed in nature, plantations expanded, and the Atlantic slave trade developed and intensified Empires achieved increased scope and influence around the world, shaping and being shaped by the diverse populations they incorporated. Economic disputes led to rivalries and conflict between states.

Explain the economic changes and continuities resulting from the process of decolonization.

The migration of former colonial subjects to imperial metropoles (the former colonizing country), usually in the major cities, maintained cultural and economic ties between the colony and the metropole even after the dissolution of empires. 1.) Government and economics change Sri Lanka Sirimavo Banaranaike: 1st female Sri Lankan prime minister; socilist policies (land redistribution, restrict free trade, industries) to try and help declining econ; wasn't successful India Indira Gandhi: Indian prime minister → 20 point plan: plan to regrow India's econ (poverty, inflation); jailing oppositions, reform of corrupt law, increase production, alleviation of inflation Tanzania (Afri country) Julius Nyerere: 1st pres of Tanzania; socialist policies to help econ (cooperative agri program, les reliant on foreigners); unsuccessful 2.) Migration in New states Metropoles: home territory of a colonial power; help maintaining home and former colonies econ/cultural ties Indians and Bangladeshians moved to England Vietnames and Algerians moved to France

Explain how different modes and locations of production have developed and changed over time.

The rapid development of steam-powered industrial production in European countries and the U.S. contributed to the increase in these regions' share of global manufacturing during the first Industrial Revolution. While Middle Eastern and Asian countries continued to produce manufactured goods, these regions' share in global manufacturing declined. The decline of Middle Eastern and Asian share in global manufacturing as Britain was mass producing as a fast rate: Shipbuilding in India and Southeast Asia Ironworks in India Textile production in India and Egypt

Explain how political changes in the period from c. 1900 to the present led to territorial, demographic, and nationalist developments.

The redrawing of political boundaries after the withdrawal of former colonial authorities led to the creation of new states. The redrawing of political boundaries in some cases led to conflict as well as population displacement and/or resettlements, including those related to the Partition of India and the creation of the state of Israel. --> 1.) Israel, Cambodia, Pakistan handling their independence Israel United Nations partition of 1948: UN partition Israel into Jewish and Arab sections; Jewish excepted, but Arabs denied this; caused war btwn two peoples → Palestine: new state of Arabs → Israel: new state of Jews Cambodia Khmer Rouge: communist organization overthrew Cambo gow, est communism → Pol Pot: leader of Khmer Rouge; ruthless dictator; 2 mill died India/Pakistan Partition of India: Pakistan from Muslims and India for Hindus → India= democratic gov; Pakistan= authoritarian gov Kashmer: state where Hindus and Muslims had their conflicts; conflict due to territorial region

Explain the various causes and consequences of mass atrocities in the period from 1900 to the present.

The rise of extremist groups in power led to the attempted destruction of specific populations, notably the Nazi killing of the Jews in the Holocaust during World War II, and to other atrocities, acts of genocide, or ethnic violence. Genocide, ethnic violence, or attempted destruction of specific populations: Armenians in the Ottoman Empire during and after World War I (Chris murder) Cambodia during the late 1970s Tutsi in Rwanda in the 1990s Ukraine in the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 1930s

Explain similarities and differences in how governments used a variety of methods to conduct WWII.

World War II was a total war. Governments used a variety of strategies, including political propaganda, art, media, and intensified forms of nationalism, to mobilize populations (both in the home countries and the colonies or former colonies) for the purpose of waging war. Governments used ideologies, including fascism and communism to mobilize all of their state's resources for war and, in the case of totalitarian states, to repress basic freedoms and dominate many aspects of daily life during the course of the conflicts and beyond. 1.) Bombs Blitzkrieg (Germ): "lightning war"; massive blows to the enemy (bombs, tanks, airpower) Atomic Bomb: bomb the released energy of destabilized atoms releasing dynamite Pearl Harbor: Japan launched an attack on us military base in Hawaii Hiroshima/Nagasaki: Japanese city that the US bombed; killed many Japanese Western democracies mobilizing for war: Great Britain under Winston Churchill United States under Franklin Roosevelt Totalitarian states mobilizing for war: Germany under Adolf Hitler USSR under Joseph Stalin Total war: countries who were fighting leveraged all of their resources both domestic and military → produce ships, tanks, aircraft, guns, ammunition, aircraft carriers → women work in factory Lend-Lease Act: US sent war materials to Britain
