Laura and Maisie have been friends for a few months. Laura expects Maisie to be there for her when she has a rough day, and Mais

ie expects the same from Laura. They also occasionally borrow each other's clothes. Sometimes it seems that Laura is very needy, and Maisie cannot give the time that Laura seems to require from her. Laura and Maisie's boyfriends are also good friends who hang out frequently, so it is difficult for Maisie to avoid Laura when she needs a break from her.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

Maisie does not end her friendship with Laura after establishing her comparison level for alternatives because in the comparison of the outcomes when comparing the alternatives Maisie has, she sees that as her boyfriend is friends with Laura and use to hang out together, it would be very awkward to break the friendship with her knowing that she still has to see Laura when the boys get together.

The interdependence theory invites people to make decisions about staying or not, in a relationship, based on the "cost-benefit" of maintaining that relationship, taking into consideration the consequences.

Machiavelli is often considered the founder of modern political thought, because he a. drew upon the Roman tradition of cynicism
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

a. drew upon the Roman tradition of cynicism as a basis for his political theory.

Explanation:

Nicolo Machiavelli was an Italian philosopher and theorists. He studied how politics were run through reading of books and observing other leaders. He came to a conclusion that morality should be put aside in politics and a more subtle and crafty method should be embraced. He believed it was better to have rulers who are feared by the people than those who don’t and only obey due to obligation. This was common in the Roman Empire and Machiavelli drew this tradition of cynicism from the Roman leaders and was a basis for his political theory.

Frankenstein what technique does shelley employ to provide the reader with the creature's story
slava [35]
Shelly provides multiple perspectives (narrative shift) throughout three volumes of the same story. In each of these volumes, you learn the perspective of Walton, Frankenstein, and Adam (AKA the creature). This allows the reader to develop for themselves who they believe is guilty and come up with their own interpretation of the story. This allows for a more reliable narration because if only one perspective is given, how would you know they weren't just lying or giving a bias interpretation?

Compare and contrast Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification with Mosca’s conflict perspective of s
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

<h3>The comparison and contrast of Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification with Mosca’s conflict perspective of social stratification lies on the concept of social position and power.</h3>

Explanation:

Davis and Moore's functionalist perspective of social stratification and Mosca’s conflict perspective of social stratification all emphasize on the presence of a power structure in a society which directly corresponds to the  position of an individual.  They all believed that society operates according to the social needs and that every individual performs their tasks accordingly.

The line of distinction between Davis and Moore's functionalist perspective and Mosca’s conflict perspective lies in the nature of men. Mosca believes that man is evil and dominating by nature and that compels him/her to misuse his position. He brings out the authority and power of the ruling class as an example to this argument. He argues that people in good position will eventually become more powerful as men are ambitious and selfish. They will gradually exploit people from lower position and use their power for their own personal gains.

While on the other hand, Davis and Moore argue that the greater the role of an individual is, the greater should be the reward. They illustrate the idea that people with bigger and greater roles should be given more importance because of their greater contributions to the society. Their perspective of social stratification emphasize that not everyone can perform the exclusive task of the doctors, therefore those who could perform such complicated tasks should be paid and rewarded more. Davis and Moore do not consider misuse of position and power by people of great influence.

In my opinion, Davis and Moore’s functionalist perspective of social stratification is more applicable and realistic. The fact that those who worked hard deserves a reward is a universal doctrine. These people spent a lot of effort and time before acquiring the position they are in today. Their effort and hard work should be rewarded greatly as they will contribute significantly to the society. Though, this perspective does not bring into account the chances of misuse of power and position, such elements can be controlled through efficient law and state control.
