Great 1990s US History Topics For Research Paper
Great 1990's US History Topics For Research PaperWhat are some interesting and appropriate 1990's US history topics for research paper? For those who haven't given much thought to writing a great academic paper, I'll briefly go over some of the questions that might pop up.Let's start with what might be called 'war time' topics: those in which one of the greatest advancements in the history of mankind was made, or a particularly prominent leader of that era rose to power. This might be someone like George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, or Abraham Lincoln. Of course, we'd also be remiss not to mention such Presidents as Andrew Jackson and Ulysses S. Grant. What does all this have to do with my research paper topic?Well, I'll give you two examples. It's easy to see how much influence leaders like Lincoln and Washington have on us, as I'm sure most of us love them, and were raised on them. Now let's consider the similarly recent rise to power of former British Prime Minister Margaret Th atcher, and her impact on the US. My research paper will focus on her life, and her impact on the British and American worlds. What did you think of those two examples?There is a long and short list of presidents that meet these criteria. If you're going to choose someone like Woodrow Wilson, Andrew Jackson, or Ulysses S. Grant, I'd really recommend using your insights from American history to come up with an interesting and informative paper.Yes, it would be wonderful to create a paper that perfectly reflects the many different points of view that existed during that difficult world of the 20th century. However, unfortunately, you can't do that. In order to do that, you must have a good understanding of all the different viewpoints on that period of time. You must be able to get all of the political views right, and historical facts right, in order to provide the best possible student project.Now, if you do choose to use some of the many different perspectives on those years, then your research paper will have to deal with what it means to be 'American,' and why. How does America's position in the world change during a certain period?The US has been at war with more than one enemy (Germany, Japan, the Soviet Union, or anyone else) over the past decade. We've been involved in several popular insurgencies in South and Central America, and a few successful coups in Latin America. We've battled rebels from Africa to the Middle East and encountered adversarial nations such as Iran and North Korea. Our economy has rebounded strongly from the crash of 2020, and our national media is back to its feet again.But there is one thing that we can be sure of about ourselves, and that is we have lots of very good reasons to be proud of ourselves as Americans. This is what I consider to be a great example of a topical area for a student paper. You should definitely try it!
