\nof the Bolshevik (later Communist Party) in the Soviet Union, both criticized late
\n19th century imperialism as a capitalist conspiracy by \u201cbig business\u201d to subjugate
\ncolonies for pure economic gain. Colonies provided cheap raw materials and
\nguaranteed markets for European and U.S. \u201ctrusts and monopolies\u201d. But what about
\nideological factors such as the idea of the \u201ccivilizing mission\u201d or Manifest Destiny? By
\nthe late 19th century, the U.S. joined other European powers in constructing an empire.
