Q6: The leaders of Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina have similar ways on how to control their nations and there are some differences on how they rule their nations. The leaders of Brazil was Getulio Vargas. He was a dictator of Brazil during the 1930s. He wanted to make Brazil a modern nation just like the United States when it came with economy and weapons. Since the United States was way a head when it came to the weapons back in the Cold War. The Cold War was a war between communism and nationalism. Communism means everyone is equal. No one is a higher class than another person. Even if it's not the best quality, at least everyone gets that. Nationalism is where there is upper class and lower class, but they have freedom to how to live their …show more content…
lives unlike communism. They are not controlled by the government on how to live their lives.
Nationalism means pride in your country or pride in your ethic group. The leader of Mexico during 1934-1940 was Lázaro Cárdenas. He wanted to help the lower class on their life, but failed to do that, but he created an oil industry in his nation. Juan Perón and Getulio Vargas were both dictator for their nation. Before Juan Perón was elected, he was an army officer and had support from the workers. All three of the leaders, Juan Perón, Getulio Vargas, and Lázaro Cárdenas have in common is that they all have a crisis that they all had to face. For example, in Mexico they were facing economic problems like they was a lack of jobs for people and many Mexicans became poor. In Mexico, people rely on oil and natural gas, but once the world has cut down oil prices. They knew that their country will fall apart. They also had a reform that allow labor rights. This is similar to the reform in Brazil. Their reform was about land. This land reform would allow peasants to have their own land. These two reforms are similar for the peasants and for the lower class. It's to allow more rights to the lower classes. In Mexico, they are the only one that needed a political party to keep Mexico stable when it comes to
politics. It was called the PRI. It stands for Institutional Revolutionary Party. The purpose of PRI was to help with Congress and they will always win the election. Brazil and Argentina didn't have a political party to support them while they were dictator, but Perón did have support from his wife named Eva. Everyone in Argentina loved her because she helped to create the welfare state with Perón. A welfare state is a government where it tries to provides everyone's needs.
As the Latin American nations set out to construct a new government and society in the 1800´s, two opposing models aroused regarding which one would best benefit the countries. ¨Civilization vs. Barbarism¨ by Domingo Sarmiento, a recognized Argentinean revolutionary, contrasts Jose Marti´s ¨Our America¨ ideology which critiques U.S. capitalism and focuses on developing a good government based on the needs of the nations and each nation´s autochthony. Contrastingly, Sarmiento, guided by his beliefs in democratic principles, declares his preference towards the European urbanized way of life as the key to progress and stability for the nations. Despite the differences in the models proposed by Marti and Sarmiento for the New Nations to follow,
The leadership in South America compared to the leadership in Mexico was quite different. But in some areas, where they were compared were very similar. In both places, a Revolution had begun. Starting with how they are both similar, Mexico and South America both wanted independence. They wanted to be free from the old fashioned ways of life, to start fresh and bring in new ideas to their people. In South America, their head leadership consisted of so very popular men named Simon Bolivar and Jose de San Martin. These men were both wealthy, Simon was a Venezuela Creole, which is a Spaniard born in Latin America, and Jose was a great liberator, or a person who sets people free from imprisonment. In some ways these two men worked together to gain their independence but then again not at all. In 1811, Simon had gained its independence from Spain. A major struggle, that was only the beginning. Simon suffered from many defeats and was exiled twice. But he never gave up hope. In a turning point, Simon led over 20,000 soldiers into Columbia and took a victory from the Spanish Bogota. By 1821 he had won Venezuelan independence. From here he marched into South Ecuador where he met Jose. Simon’s ways of gaining independence was only the beginning of South Americas revolution.

The Revolution began in November of 1910 in an effort to overthrow the Diaz dictatorship. Under the Diaz presidency, a small minority of people, primarily relatives and friends, were in ...

Slave labor was the driving force behind the growth of the sugar economy in Brazil. Gold and diamond deposits were discovered in Brazil in about 1690, which sparked an increase in the importation of African slaves to power this new market.
