For this discussion, I define “imperialism” as the policy of extending the rule or authority of a nation over foreign lands without the consent of the people who already live in those lands. It is generally believed that a democratic government gains its legitimacy, and therefore its power to govern, from the consent of the people it governs. Watch the video America Becomes a World Power. Study this PBS website Global Connections. Do you think imperialism plays a role in U.S. foreign policy today? Explain your position, using evidence from the video, textbook, and the linked website. Remember to write in paragraph or short essay format ——History class in college, but the essay is part on a discussion . If has to be well thought off from the instructions, and go the web site Films on Demand and watch a video “America becomes a world power” and also a web site call Global Connections find a tab call U.S Foreign Policy information will be helpful. I’m uploading the instructions
