Andrew Carnegie was a prominent industrialist and philanthropist whose views on U.S. imperialism were complex. While he initially supported American expansionism, particularly in the context of economic interests, he later became a vocal critic of imperialism, arguing that it contradicted American democratic ideals. Carnegie's involvement in imperialism is also reflected in his efforts to promote peace and his opposition to the annexation of territories like the Philippines, believing that imperialism undermined the nation's values. Ultimately, his legacy is intertwined with both the era's expansionist policies and the push for peace and international cooperation.
