Weekly Learning Targets
I can trace late 17th century efforts to integrate the colonies into an imperial structure and pursue
mercantilist economic aims and explain how these efforts met with scant success due to colonial
resistance - which led to salutary neglect.
I can analyze resistance to imperial control in the colonies as a result of experiences with selfgovernment, local ideas of liberty, the Enlightenment, and diversity.
