During the 1950's, Joe McCarthy used fear tactics and paranoia to convince American citizens that communism was making its way into the United States. This US Senator accused hundreds of individuals of being communist, fueling what would be known as the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC). This committee, ran by the US Congress, called suspected communists or people who worked with communists, into Congress to question them.

One of the biggest targets in these investigations were individuals associated with labor unions. Labor unions were seen as more of a communist/socialist idea. This fear of being associated with a labor union caused a gradual decline in the amount of unions in the US during the 1950's.

Which of the following explains why a small conflict in the Balkans spread to all of Europe?
snow_lady [41]

Many of the European powers had entered into alliances requiring them to defend each other.


The systems of alliances and military plans which were put in place before World War I presupposed a major war between the countries which were tied together with alliances.  Because the Triple Entente had Britain, France and Russia as allies, Germany thought if a war began it would need to fight on two fronts -- west and east.  So German Field Marshall Alfred von Schlieffen drew up war plans that said attack France first, quickly, and then hold that territory while deploying forces to contend with Russia in the east.   


So then here's how it happened. When an Austrian prince and his wife were assassinated in Serbia, the Austrian Empire threatened the nation of Serbia with retaliatory action (even though the assassination was carried out by a terrorist group, not the Serbian government). Russia responded to Austria's threat, because Russia was bound to protect its Slavic ally, Serbia. Germany responded to the mobilization of Russian troops, and when Germany declared war on Russia in 1914, they implemented the Schlieffen Plan and went on attack vs. France.  That pulled France and Britain into the war immediately as well, and the war spread and became a global conflict.

How did the french women try to change their role in french society in the late 1800's
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Historians since the late 20th century have debated how women shared in the French Revolution and what long-term impact it had on French women. Women had no political rights in pre-Revolutionary France; they were considered "passive" citizens, forced to rely on men to determine what was best for them. That changed dramatically in theory as there seemingly were great advances in feminism. Feminism emerged in Paris as part of a broad demand for social and political reform. The women demanded equality to men and then moved on to a demand for the end of male domination. Their chief vehicle for agitation were pamphlets and women's clubs, especially the Society of Revolutionary Republican Women. However, the Jacobin (radical) element in power abolished all the women's clubs in October 1793 and arrested their leaders. The movement was crushed. Devance explains the decision in terms of the emphasis on masculinity in wartime, Marie Antoinette's bad reputation for feminine interference in state affairs, and traditional male supremacy.[1] A decade later the Napoleonic Code confirmed and perpetuated women's second-class status.[2]
