Explain the concept of racism and social Darwinism and how they relate to the policy of imperialism

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Social darwinism seeks to use Darwin's theory of evolution to account for the success and dominance of certain humans and human groups in comparison to others. This has been used to justify racism where racial groups are believed to be superior or inferior based upon their power or level of development. These two ideas were used to justify imperialism by "civilized" European states over "un-civilized" states of the developing world. 
Answer 2
Answer:

Social Darwinism is the belief that some people or groups are superior and others are inferior. It is believed to be part of the natural order and therefore those being more advanced are superior and that leads to racism.

Believing that some peoples are inferior and others superior creating racist thinking makes it easier to take them over and justify the imperialism. More technologically advanced countries took over less modern countries or regions believing they were bettering the civilization by bringing western thinking and technology. They outlawed native religious practices and social norms while supporting western culture. This thinking also convinced the conquering power that they were more suited to be in control of natural resources and economic trade again justifying their behavior in taking over the economic controls in a country or region. This gave the imperial power more control and power while decreasing the power of the conquered land.

Describe in a short paragraph the reasons why the decolonization of more than 75 nations resulted in problems that could leave them open to Communist influence.

Answers

The economic philosophy which the majority of governments in the world adopt is liberalism. Liberalism supports free, unregulated markets and the avoidance of the intervention by the government in an industry that operates within that country. One of the consequences of Liberalism is that it has increased the gap between the rich and the poor. This is because the model favors individuals that already hold an important amount of resources and brings important limitations to the development of less favored populations. As a result of this, these populations tend to assemble and rise in protest against the current government and its policies.

In these nations the colonial empire did not leave the infrastructure necessary to prosper. The major piece of infrastructure was government. This led to wars and power struggles. The governments that eventually arose were often corrupt and favored a ruling elite who left the masses to starve. Communism is a workers movement which aims to promote equality and topple corrupt, elitist regimes. Therefore the starving people of these countries would find communism favorable to their current conditions.

Were Albania and the Soviet Union allies?

Even though the People's Republic of Albania was a Communist state, it was not allied with the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union could do nothing about this because Albania was quite far from them and so could not be invaded easily.
