This resource provides an in-depth analysis of the Gilded Age (1870-1900), focusing on the era's core characteristics such as industrialization, urbanization, and political corruption. It includes vocabulary definitions, visual analyses through political cartoons, and a framework for students to synthesize historical and modern economic issues. Activities encourage students to match historical events with social or political issues, compare past and present government responses to economic trends, and justify historical claims with evidence. The resource culminates in a challenge task where students analyze the evolution of federal government roles from the Gilded Age to contemporary social welfare and regulation.
