So this “Imperialism” thing… Let’s try to figure out if the two scenarios on Handout 3 are EXAMPLES of imperialism or NON-EXAMPLES.  Does the scenario show ALL FOUR CRITICAL ATTRIBUTES? If YES – it is an example of imperialism. If NO – it is a non-example.

Scenario #1: Example or Non-Example? 1. After a rebellion in 1857, the British government forcibly took control of India by ending the rebellion and taking the colony away from the British East India Company. Britain then began its direct control of about three-fifths of the Indian subcontinent. The British colonial presence in India brought both positive and negative changes to the lives of the Indian people. However, insensitivity to Indian customs and beliefs, economic policies that favored the British, and domination of political practices, made many Indians resent the British presence.

Scenario #2: Example or Non-Example? 2. The United Kingdom is a sovereign state comprised of England, Scotland, Wales (the island of Great Britain), Northern Ireland and many small local islands. The state began to take its shape with the Acts of Union in 1707, which united the Parliament of England and the Parliament of Scotland to create a unified “Kingdom of Great Britain.” Subsequently, the Act of Union in 1800 joined the Kingdom of Great Britain and the Kingdom of Ireland to create the “United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.” The United Kingdom is a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy comprising four constituent countries — England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales — with Elizabeth II as head of state.

Scenario #2: Example or Non-Example? Something to consider…
