Summary - Chapter 4 is about revolutions based on the Enlightenment ideals justifying the American and French Revolutions.  In Latin American, natives were very conscious of their inferior status to Spaniards, and prompted by the U.S., revolted.  In Europe, the Industrial Revolution caused the growing middle and working classes to be more conscious of their lower political status and ethnic differences, resulting in widespread revolt.  In general, the revolutions in Europe did not succed, but provided a wake-up call for governments to try to reform their laws and enfranchise more people, specifically the middle class.  In Latin America, U. S. protection under the Monroe Doctrine aided the success of countries breaking away from their European overlords.

Notes from 1/3/2005: See attached html document on ideologies (conservatives and liberals)
 
Notes from 1/4/2005:
  • Revolution in France: This PowerPoint show is good for reviewing the pertinent events and people that occur during the revolutions of 1830 and 1848.  Remember - "when France sneezes, Europe catches a cold!"
  • Revolutions of 1848 - This is an excerpted online PowerPoint presentation by Dr. Streeter from SMSU which should help flesh out and explain much of Section 2 in your textbook.
