The readings should offer a clear understanding of the historical factors that pushed America from a mostly isolationist foreign policy to a more interventionist, imperialism agenda. American imperialism was showcased in Hawaii, Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Philippines, and China. For this essay, students will consider the motivations behind American imperialism. Students will write an argumentative, thesis-driven essay that discusses the factor(s) that help explain American imperial efforts at the turn of the century.
Each essay will have an introduction that formally presents a thesis statement. In this case, the thesis will be what you consider were the primary factor(s) that motivated American imperialism. The thesis statement can be one or two sentence. The entire introduction paragraph should be about 5-6 sentences. The thesis statement must make absolutely clear what the argument of the essay is. The argument is essentially your answer to the questions:
What factor(s) motivated turn-of-the-century imperialism?
Why did Americans engage in imperial conquests?
How should historians account for the rise of American imperialism?
The essay should focus on events related to American imperialism between roughly the 1890s-1914.
The body paragraphs will discuss actual, factual historical evidence that proves your argument. The argument should be at the very center of the discussion in the body paragraphs. You must have evidence to prove your argument. The evidence will consist of real historical examples. The thesis introduces the theoretical claim–what motivated imperialism–and the body paragraphs contain information that illustrates the accuracy of the claim. The essay should not be a series of claims or a general discussion of the history of imperialism. You must convince the reader (me) that the factors identified offer the most accurate explanation for why Americans engaged in imperialism. Every essay should essentially be organized the same way. An introduction with a thesis, and 3-4 body paragraphs filled with historical evidence. Each body paragraph should begin with a topic sentence. The topic sentence (the first sentence of each paragraph) tells the reader how the paragraph helps prove the argument. In theory, I should be able to read the first sentence of each body paragraph and leave with a clear understanding of what the point of the essay is.
The essay will be 4 pages long.
Standard margins.
12 point times new roman font.
In-text parenthetical citations. For example: (Foner, 3), or (Johnson, 25).
The essay needs to reference/cite at least 3 sources from the list of required readings. If the essay does not reference at least 3 sources, the grade will be penalized.
The essay needs a formal works cited page. Students should be able to write the essay without referencing sources beyond what is provided in the module reading list. But if you do feel the need to reference sources beyond what is provided in the module reading list, make sure they are scholarly sources, and make sure they are properly cited.
