r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

A) The political institution Dickinson wants to maintain is the English monarchy.  He provides a series of reasons in favor of the status quo and against the Revolution.  For him, this institution has given the colonists freedom and he believes that establishing a Republic will result in "licentious anarchy and popular tyranny".

B) The English monarchy served as a guide for the colonists "directing them ... to the same object, which is self preservation and happiness".  This institution, according to Dickinson, maintained union in the colonies and gave the people freedom.  The monarchy "only sustains and governs".

C) Representative democracy is a system in which elected officials represent groups of the population in the government.  In the passage, he mentions the Parliament and how it represents the "variety of opinions and diversity of interests", which is what a representative democracy should do.  Unfortunately, though, the colonists did not have a direct representative in the Parliament.

How did the Role of the United States changed global affairs during progressive era give and explain two examples
givi [52]

Answer: Progressive era 1890 - 1920.

Explanation:

The progressive era is a period of democratization of institutions and society in the united states. In this context, many positive changes have taken place in American society. However, this policy has had a global impact on several occasions. Primarily the American-Spanish war that took place after the American media wrote about Spanish violence in Cuba. These headlines greatly encouraged the authorities in the United States to start a war with Spain. Another echo of that policy is a reflection of President Woodward Wilson’s administrative action in the field of international politics. It is an effort to form a League of Nations to prevent future wars in the world.
