Toward a New Imperialism
Imperialism in global contexti The scramble for empire was well under
way by the time the U.S. entered in the late 19th century.
i By the late 19th century, the technology of arms and the networks of communication, transportation, and commerce brought the prospect of effective, truly global empires within much closer reach – a new age of imperialism (ex. Africa)

American Imperialism: Markets
The rapid industrial development of the U.S. (new places to export and access to raw materials)i The growth of industrial networks
linked them to international markets as never before.
i American companies were outgrowing the home market..
European Expansion Worldwide

Expansion
In 1880, the U.S. still lacked the military might of an imperial power.i The U.S. Navy ranked 12th in the world, behind
Denmark and Chile.i The U.S. could not protect its interests overseas.i The Influence of Sea Power Upon History (1890) –
by Alfred Thayer Mahan argued that national greatness and prosperity depended on sea power.
By 1900, the U.S. Navy ranked 3rd in the world. With a modern navy, the country had the means to become an imperial power

Annexation of HawaiiPresident Cleveland directs the
Queen to be restored but Dole refuses.
Recognized the Republic of Hawaii but will not annex unless the majority votes to do so.
William McKinley supported annexation and Congress proclaims it an American territory in 1898 with Hawaiians never voting to do so.
