Answer 2

(MC)The quote below was part of a campaign speech given by Senator Albert J. Beveridge in 1898:

“But today we are raising more than we can consume. Today we are making more than we can use. Today our industrial society is congested; there are more workers than there is work; there is more capital than there is investment. We do not need more money—we need more circulation, more employment. Therefore, we must find new markets for our produce, new occupation for our capital, new work for our labor.”

Which type of policy was this statement intended to justify?

detente

imperialism

containment

protectionism

Answer 3

Imperialism, as defined by the Dictionary of Human Geography, is "an unequal human and territorial relationship, usually in the form of an empire, based on ideas of superiority and practices of dominance, and involving the extension of authority and control of one state or people over another."

Answer 4

Basically the quote is saying that while the US has the ability to produce a lot of goods, there's no one to sell those goods to / circulate to. The US needs new markets, basically, so the answer should be 'Imperialism'.
