If you were in a higher class within the social construct, you could pay $$ to eliminate your punishment. hammurabi justified his punishments by stating " an eye for an eye " meaning that if you committed a crime harsh enough, you were bound to receive the same type of treatment, since it's fair & square.

He would say an eye for an eye. Here is one of his rules: If the builder built the roof for the person's house and it fell apart and killed the man. The man who made the roof would die. This is what it is.

Given the atrocities of American slavery, how did enslaved people endure their oppression?
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

In the early 19th century, most enslaved men and women worked on large agricultural plantations as house servants or field hands.

Life for enslaved men and women was brutal; they were subject to repression, harsh punishments, and strict racial policing.

Enslaved people adopted a variety of mechanisms to cope with the degrading realities of life on the plantation. They resisted slavery through everyday acts, while also occasionally plotting larger-scale revolts.

Enslaved men and women created their own unique religious culture in the US South, combining elements of Christianity and West African traditions and spiritual beliefs.

How were minorities treated in nazi Germany​
deff fn [24]

Answer:

The Nazis were a male supremacist organisation. This was part of the general racist doctrine that governed the Nazi ideology. They believed that politics was for men, so you won’t find any women in any positions of power in Nazi Germany. There was a so-called Reich women’s leader, Gertrud Scholtz-Klink, but she had no influence on Nazi politics at all. She just spoke to organised women.

Hitler said that the aim was to bring up children as physically fit and healthy – if they were so-called Aryans, if they were basically ‘pure’ Germans – not if they were of mixed origin, with Slavic blood, or least of all with Jewish. By the time of the Second World War, non-Jewish, non-Slavic, non-foreign-born German children were obliged to enrol in the Hitler Youth or the League of German Girls, which was essentially aimed at preparation for war.
