Legacies of Historical Globalization
10-1: | To what extent should contemporary society respond to the legacies of historical globalization? |
10-2: | Should people in Canada respond to the legacies of historical globalization? |
The specific outcomes for General Outcome 2 "Students will assess the impacts of historical globalization
on Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples" (10-1) and "Students will understand the
effects of historical globalization on Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples" (10-2) may be addressed
by developing students' ability to examine varying perspectives of the legacy of imperialism. This
inquiry supports students in investigating the past through the beliefs, values and mores of the time.
While this approach does not necessarily justify the actions of individuals or peoples, it does
seek to understand why they acted as they did. The main objectives of this inquiry are to help
students appreciate the historical contexts of past imperialist practices and policies, recognize
the consequences of these actions and explore contemporary society's responsibilities to address any injustices.
