Consider the six major disruptions to the status quo that we’ve explored in History 104 since
February:
World War I
the 1918 Spanish Flu
the Great Depression
World War II
the Vietnam War and the Turbulence of the 1960s
the Recession of the 1970s and 1980s

Select two or three of the six crises listed above and answer this question: To what degree did these crises lead to reforms that expanded the boundaries of freedom for Americans? Give specific factual examples.* In the final sentence of the essay, you  may wish to speculate about whether the current coronavirus crisis–like crises past–will lead to outcomes which will contract or expand freedom.

*You may wish to define which definition of freedom they are using–negative (absence of
obstacles) or positive (presence of ability to achieve goals). As for specific examples in history, here are some possibilities that you may wish to consider: WWI led to alcohol Prohibition–did that expand or contract freedom? The Spanish Flu crisis led to expanded public health interventions–did that expand or contract freedom? The Great Depression led to New Deal reforms–did that expand or contract freedom? WWII led to a civil rights movement–did that expand or contract freedom? The turbulence of the 1960s
led to a rights revolution–did that expand or contract freedom? The recession of the 1970s and 1980s led to a triumph of conservatism–did that expand or contract freedom?
