Paper Summary:
The paper discusses how analyzing the social, economic and political effects of the Chicago World Fair of 1893 reveals the shocking hypocrisy that pervaded American society in the late nineteenth-century. In Gilded Age America, the wealthy and powerful were idealized and worshipped as social, economic and political icons, despite the fact that many of them were ruthless, corrupt, egomaniacs who considered themselves above the law. The paper discusses how the Chicago World Fair was a national monument to hypocrisy, for it was a microcosm of America itself in this era of greed and psychological self-delusion.More papers on Chicago World Fair:
