Considering a point of view it is fair to say that Mr. Ellsberg attacked democracy itself by disclosing the private study. From Ellsberg's view he took it upon himself to inform the public about a crucial issue namely, that the study showed, in his opinion, that the American government had been lying for years about the progress of the war The Pentagon Papers leak may have compromised national security, but only by showing the rest of the world that the US was incapable of keeping its secrets.

Extent to which government should be allowed to have secrecy:

Governmental secrecy has a peculiar quality that results from the lack of a known mechanism for limiting its exercise to specific areas on which reasonable people can agree.

The cost of secrecy extends beyond the spread of mistrust that the government is abusing the public's confidence. It also serves as a means of halting the national discourse in which citizens prepare themselves for important decisions that may require significant sacrifice. The Pentagon Papers serve as the best example of this.

Identify three ways boundaries are created and provide a specific example of each one. (Physical boundaries NOT tectonic plates)
charle [14.2K]

There are multiple types of boundaries, all of them being set by the humans, some following some natural features, some not. Some of the types of boundaries are the natural boundaries, geometric boundaries, and maritime boundaries.

The natural boundaries are set long a natural feature, like a river or a mountain chain. Examples of this type of boundaries are the boundaries between the USA and Mexico along the Rio Grande river, or the border between Macedonia and Greece along the Kozhuf and Nidze mountain ranges.

The geometric boundaries are usually set in places that are very sparsely populated, mostly in desert areas. We can see this type of boundary between Libya and Algeria.

The maritime boundaries are boundaries set on ocean/sea waters between an island nation and continental nation, or between two island nations. An example of this type of boundary is the maritime boundary between Japan and South Korea in the Japanese Sea.

In this unit, you learned about the development of the U.S. government, including the basic ideals on which the nation was found
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

1. The US government is based on ideas of limited government, including natural rights, popular sovereignty, republicanism, and social contract. Limited government is the belief that the government should have certain restrictions in order to protect the individual rights and civil liberties of citizens.

2.  The Constitution diluted power even more by creating a federal form of government. In this way power and authority would be shared between central, state and local governments.

3.  I see these ideas reflected in the nation today because they still are applied to the constitution.

4. Yes I do think that the government lives up to the democratic ideas supported by the founders because democracy is still in the U.S to this day.

Hope this helps
