ALLIED POWERS CENTRAL POWERS NEUTRAL COUNTRIES

WWI in the Americas Case Study: Cuba After their victory in the Spanish-American War, the U.S. occupied Cuba from January May The occupation had three goals: 1.Make Cuba into a self-governing colony with secure economic policies and political stability (better than full colonial occupation) Created a huge opposition movement, but the U.S. bought off the opposition army by offering to purchase its arms…… an offer that hungry, unemployed soldiers could not refuse. 2.Repair war destruction and promote economic recovery to provide services necessary for U.S. occupation Launched public works programs, sanitation (led to major yellow fever outbreak), created a national education system (designed to instill U.S. principles, even the textbooks were translated American texts), established military bases (Guantanamo Bay) all paid for by the Cuban Treasury.

WWI in the Americas Case Study: Cuba 3. Absorb Cuba into the United States’ economic sphere of influence American government protected U.S. business interests, so they poured capital into sugar and railroad construction trade agreement cut the tariff on Cuban sugar exported to the U.S. and in return, Cuba reduced taxes on imported U.S. goods. In 1902, the U.S. transferred power to the Cuban government. As a condition of the transfer, the new constitution implemented the requirements of the Platt Amendment, which among other things gave the United States the right to intervene militarily in Cuba. This will cause more U.S. occupations!!!

WWI in the Americas Case Study: Cuba Directions: You are now going to read about the end of U.S. occupation and Cuba’s involvement in WWI. Start with “Dependent Development and Popular Struggle” in the Latin American textbook pgs As you read, complete the corresponding worksheet  due Thursday 4/30

WWI in the Americas Case Study: Cuba Effects of U.S. occupation: Yellow Fever Dependence on U.S. The rapid and huge influx of U.S. investment into sugar enabled the larger mills to buy surrounding land and create monopolies Impoverished rural areas and peasants Slave-like conditions Mills imported cheap labor from other Caribbean islands (Jamaica & Haiti) Unemployment in agriculture created massive growth of cities (poor living conditions) Sugar monopolies controlled the railroads and used them for their own benefit By 1913, U.S. companies invested $200 million into sugar, which accounted for 1/5 of total U.S. investments in all of L.A.

Involvement in the Americas Reasons for Involvement: WWI disrupted markets for L.A. goods and made it difficult to import necessary manufactured products –Threat of submarine warfare As a result, economy shifted from agriculture to manufacturing in order to produce these necessary goods Declines in price levels of Latin America’s exports encouraged a further growth in manufacturing –Encouraged by U.S. Although manufacturing increased, industrialization was almost completely limited to light consumer good industries –High poverty remained Impact of Involvement: The U.S. will emerge from WWI as the world’s principal industrial and financial power, and replaced England as the major source of foreign investments in Latin America Continuing the “big stick” and “dollar diplomacy” policies of their predecessors, Democratic and Republican administrations used armed intervention and economic pressure to expand U.S. control over the Caribbean area. By the end of the period, there was deep Latin American resentment of these strong-arm tactics Countries push for total economic and political independence
