Fundamental social, political, cultural, and economic forces

In this course we have examined the fundamental social, political, cultural, and economic forces that shaped the development of the United States since the Civil War period and how these developments have positioned the United States as a dominant player on the international stage.

For your initial post, discuss the role of your final paper topic in shaping the development of the United States and share an excerpt from your paper. You may share this excerpt as a “cut and paste” or attach a copy of the entire paper if you wish.

In responding to your peers’ posts, discuss the core values and goals evidenced by these topics. How well do you believe the United States has achieved these goals either at home or abroad? Provide an example. 1 1
