De Anza College

Paper #2: Colonialism and Nationalism

Why did Europeans establish colonial empires? What effect did they have on the colonized peoples? How did the experience of colonialism give rise to nationalism outside of Europe? To what extent did European rule transform colonial societies, or preserve existing social and economic patterns? Use the textbook, and the documents at the end of chapters 18 and 19 to examine the experience of colonialism, imperialism, and the rise of nationalism.

You must cite your sources, and list them at the end of your paper as a List of References. Please do not “borrow” material from the web without providing proper citations and enclosing direct quotations in quotation marks. Otherwise, it will be considered plagiarism, and the penalties will be severe.

Typed, double-spaced, 12-point type, 600-800 words. Use MLA formatting.

For help with MLA formatting, consult the Purdue Owl (on-line writing lab).

(That allows me to better keep track of the several hundred papers that I receive during the quarter.)
