America Moves West Reconstruction Is the Name
Reconstruction is the name for the period in United States history that covers the post-Civil War era, roughly 1865-1877. Technically, it refers to the policies that focused on the aftermath of the war; abolishing slavery, defeating the Confederacy, and putting legislation in effect to restore the nation – per the Constitution. Most contemporary historians view Reconstruction as a failure with ramifications that lasted at least 100 years later: issues surrounding the Civil Rights were still being debated in the 1970s

An understanding of the contextual elements that impact upon individual purchase decision making and the overall process through which individuals behave and ultimately make decisions is an important first stage in the development of any marketing communications plan (Shirin & Kambiz, 2011). The increasing demand for Italian food has contributed to the growth of restaurant chains such as Olive Garden, owned by General Mills, which has more than 100 units, and Sbarro, which has more than 500 outlets in forty-eight states. The acceptance of Italian food is not a fad. This ethnic food preference has staying power. Italian restaurant distribution is strongest in the mid-Atlantic, Pacific Coast, south Atlantic, and eastern and north central states. The Spaghetti Warehouse, a restaurant chain based in Garland, Texas, is now selling franchises and stepping up expansion. The Italian meals most often served are lasagna, spaghetti with sauce, pasta with red sauce, fettuccine, and pizza. Brands that dominate their market segments for Italian food are Chef Boy-Ar-Dee and Franco- American for canned pasta, Progresso for canned soup, Ragu and Prego for spaghetti sauces, and Stouffer Lean Cuisine and Michelina for frozen Italian entrees.
