Your essay should be approximately 5- 6 typed, double-spaced pages. You will be graded on factual and chronological accuracy; the breadth and depth of your response; and your use of the text, lectures, and a minimum of six eCompanion documents as sources.(I will include 6 of the docs myself after you write essay) Note that each question has an “overall” component to guide your “big picture” analysis and help you formulate a thesis.

Essay objective:

1) Discuss each of the four decades since 1970, identifying and explaining key events in each and tracing those that continued into subsequent decades. Overall, how did the US change economically, politically, socially and culturally, and in its foreign relations over these forty years?

Please advise, factual and chronological accuracy.
