2 Part 1: America in the Global Economy 1A: The Rise of the European Union and China Globalization, multiculturalism, and family values were all flash points in 1980s-2000s A renewed focus on globalization came about as the American economy continued to struggle and deindustrialize 1999 anti-wto Seattle protest showed growing distrust of globalization 1968 Campaign Rally

3 Part 1: America in the Global Economy 1B: A New Era of Globalization NAFTA created a free trade zone between the US, Canada, Mexico Free trade zones, faster shipping, and improved communication allowed MNCs to outsource production and cut labor costs 1968 Campaign Rally

4 Part 1: America in the Global Economy 1C: Revolutions in Technology Technology rapidly advanced in the 1980s and beyond and profoundly influenced people s lives and the global economy PCs, the Internet, cell phones, smart phones quickened globalization

5 Part 2: Politics & Partisanship in a Contentious Era 2A: An Increasingly Plural Society 1965 Immigration Act increased and changed immigration to the USA by favoring the skilled, not favoring Europe and reuniting families Large increases in Latino and Asian immigration led to Hispanics outnumbering Blacks and CA becoming a majority-minority state Immigration created a backlash and fears of a cultural war CA voters ended affirmative action and bilingual education The Supreme Court ruled that diversity was OK but not quotas

6 Part 2: Politics & Partisanship in a Contentious Era 2B: Clashes over Family Values Conservatives blamed liberal policies (e.g. liberal divorce laws, gov. child care support, welfare to single moms) for destroying society Abortion remained a huge concern of many conservatives as the courts upheld it but allowed states to narrow its scope Public opinion shifted dramatically on gay rights as Congress passed the Defense of Marriage Act in 1998 and it was invalidated in 2015

7 Part 2: Politics & Partisanship in a Contentious Era 2C: Bill Clinton and the New Democrats Extreme partisanship grew in the 1990s and beyond as result of talk radio, 24 hour cable news and the culture wars Clinton beat Bush, Perot in the 1992 election as a New Democrat Universal health care failed but Clinton balanced the budget and grew the economy; he also passed NAFTA and welfare reform Clinton was impeached over the Lewinsky scandal but not removed

8 Part 2: Politics & Partisanship in a Contentious Era 2D: Post-Cold War Foreign Policy NATO expanded to include 12 new countries with the dissolution of the USSR but doing so eventually damaged relations with Russia US support for Israel, the embargo of Iraq, and troops in Saudi Arabia led to unrest angered radical Islamists who resented the West Al Qaeda bombed the WTC, US embassies in Africa and USS Cole US embassy in Kenya, 1998

9 Part 3: Into a New Century 3A: The Ascendance of George W. Bush Bush won tight 2000 election after Supreme Court halted FL recount New tax cuts and increased health care costs ballooned US debt 9/11 attacks led to Afghan invasion and passage of USA Patriot Act Iraq invasion overthrew Hussein but created chaos and huge costs New Jersey Phalanx building photograph

10 Part 3: Into a New Century 3B: Violence Abroad & Economic Collapse at Home Bush s 2 nd term was marked by inept response to Hurricane Katrina and a growing insurgency in Iraq and the Great Recession Deregulation and greed almost toppled financial and auto industries leading to expensive and controversial government bailouts

11 Part 3: Into a New Century 3C: Reform and Stalemate in the Obama Years Obama was elected in 2016 as the nation s first black president Health care, an economic stimulus and financial regulation passed After the rise of the Tea Party and wholesale Republican obstruction, Obama turned to executive action, especially on climate change Efforts to exit Iraq and Afghanistan and close Guantanamo faltered even as the Arab Spring and Syrian civil war demanded US attention New Jersey Phalanx building photograph
