Select one of the following questions and respond in an essay of 750-1000 words. You must include references to the course readings. If needed, you may also refer to
other appropriate college level sources. Always remember to include citations and attach a works cited page.
1. The Boxer Uprising in China – Tignor notes the Boxer’s belief in divine intervention, “We requested the gods to attach themselves to our bodies. When they had done
so, we became Spirit Boxers, after which we were invulnerable to swords and spears, our courage was enhanced, and in fighting we were unafraid to die and dared to
charge straight ahead” (Tignor, 2011, 680). With the use of your text and two scholarly website links, discuss this uprising with regard to various factors such as the
breakdown of dynastic authority, the role of women, missionaries, foreign involvement, and the Empress Dowager Cixi.
2. How did the development of mass production and mass consumption shape economic and political history? Consideration must be given to Bruce Barton’s “Gospel of Mass
Production,” and two of the following: radio, film, advertising, the automobile, and/or the Great Depression.
