Decolonization Why after WWII? India clip Alignment and Satellite wars Immigration

Why After WWII? Increased independence movements – especially from countries who had helped their imperial rulers in WWII (and WWI!) European countries – especially Britain – found their power severely diminished and could not afford empire.

Case Study: India sets the example for others (1-7) Gandhi as leader (nonviolence) Partition and the problems of independence

Alignment and Satellite Wars Alignment: Newly independent nations are swept into the CW as the US and USSR compete to -Help build countries financially/assist in development -Accepting help also meant, in most cases, accepting politics and influence.

Satellite Wars US and USSR aids countries fighting civil wars between socialist/communist and non-socialist forces = “proxy wars” US Goal: Containment of communism Examples: Vietnam War Korean War

Immigration to Europe from countries formerly colonized Britain’s creation of the “commonwealth” Europe becomes a more diverse society.
