Detalles: There is no formal homework, but I will post discussion questions 1-2 times a month that could include brief resources, such as a histomap. Students will be encouraged to respond to these in any way they prefer.
We will discuss imperialism. The Opium Wars were fought over the right of the British to distribute drugs to the Chinese people. Social Darwinism and eugenics were popular modes of thinking that influenced British actions during this period as well.
