Answer:
The legislation that played the greatest role in prohibiting the formation and operation of monopolies in the late 1800s the Sherman Anti-Trust Act.
Explanation:
The Sherman Anti-Trust Act of July 2, 1890 was the first attempt by the American government to limit anti-competitive behavior by companies: it thus signified the birth of modern competition law.
The bill aimed at countering the actions of Standard Oil, which was constituted as a trust and not in the form of a company whose rights were, at the time, limited. Ironically, when Standard Oil was dismantled, it had already taken the form of a company, and the Sherman Antitrust Act hardly applied to trusts. It is supplemented by the Clayton Antitrust Act of 1914.
This law has served as a model for the drafting of the basic texts of several competition laws around the world.
During and after the Cold War, it became clear that capitalism was dominant to communism, and many Russians wanted out of the current state of affairs. This of course affected the art, technology, and economy or Communist Russia.
That's a lot of questions! You need not give me the "brainliest," as I may only respond to a couple of those points for the sake of time here.
#2 in your list: In Lincoln's first inaugural address, he said: "Plainly, the central idea of secession is the essence of anarchy." In other words, if states could choose to secede from the union, then there was really no union and no government. (Anarchy is the absence of government.) Only if we abide by the constitutional checks we place on ourselves in a democratic republic are we exercising genuine government. Otherwise, we fall into chaos or some sort of dictatorial state. Lincoln felt that the whole concept of self-government was at stake, threatened by the South's desire to secede. Lincoln had to treat the secession of several states as an act of rebellion.
#5 in your list (closely related to #2): The states that had seceded already had caused the civil war, in Lincoln's estimation. The northern states had to respond to hold the union together. The southern states claimed to be afraid for their property, peace and safety with an administration like Lincoln's in charge. But Lincoln saw those fears as unfounded, that all states would continue to enjoy their constitutional privileges. But seceding from the union cut them off from all stability and security.
