Domestic life in America In the early 60’s what was America like? Differences between today’s America? The Kennedys Psychological impact of JFK’s election?

Questions about the course? Discussions?

Seminar Questions After completing your reading, viewing the video lessons, and familiarizing yourself with the terms and concepts for this unit, be prepared to discuss the impact of the global spread of capitalism and the American way of life. If we are indeed becoming a “global village” with western beliefs, values, norms, and such, what place is there for other nations’ beliefs, customs, traditions, and such? Will these eventually become extinct?

Be prepared to discuss specific examples. For instance, in many Spanish speaking countries, the tradition of the bullfight has strong ethnic meaning. In many Islamic countries, women are subservient. These are very profound ideologies in these nations. Is there a place for such traditions, customs, and beliefs that go directly against American values in this new global village?

The birth of a national culture What does that mean? Examples?? How does the birth of a national consumer culture affect racial tensions?

Atomic Bomb Arms race Germany was Racing to build one. Nuclear Energy The end of War?
