According to Hobbes, people exchange some of their individual freedoms for protection by the government. This idea of the social contract essentially states that citizens are willing to give up some of their freedoms in order to have a government that will create laws and other institutions to protect them. This is a mutually benefitting system, as the government helps to create law enforcement agencies and general laws that help to keep all citizens safe. In return, citizens are better protected from possible violence and overall mayhem.

Gennadij [26K]
True

From the Industrial Revolution to the rise of mass production in the early 20th century, women transformed their relationship with the union movement. During the 19th century, women entered factories in large numbers, working fourteen hours a day, six days a week in dangerous jobs for low pay. In response to these conditions, young female textile workers organized America’s first industrial protests, strikes, and reform groups. Despite these efforts, women were generally excluded from the larger labor movement.

How does the celebration of heritage day bring unity and close the gaps of the past
Effectus [21]
Heritage day, as its name states, celebrates heritage (obviously). The reason that "closes gaps" from the past is because it celebrates culture that was suppressed in the past, and it promotes diversity and unity that was previously discouraged or prosecuted.

Why Hindusm's development was more a social structure than a religion?<br><br><br> Help plz!!
kkurt [141]
This is because Hinduism was highly associated with the Caste System which was a social structure which India adhered to prior to its abolition. It states that the higher your caste, the more likely you are to be able to achieve moksha. If you are in a lower caste, it is because you recieved bad karma in your previous life.
