How was the policy created by the Americans with Disabilities Act changed after it was implemented?
nata0808 [166]

The correct answer is C. Congress amended it to broaden the protection it offered.

Explanation

The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 was a law enacted by the Congress of the United States Republic to establish parameters that prohibited discrimination against disabled people. However, this law must be amended because the courts where this law had to be interpreted, do it erroneously and the rights of disabled people who were looking for a job were affected and were discriminated against for their condition. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Congress amended it to broaden the protection it offered.

What is the biggest criticism of the electoral college system?
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The biggest criticism of the electoral college is that the system is inherently oligarchic. The system is set up so that the Electorates (those who vote for the president) can be essentially anyone. This is what makes up a Representative Republic and not a Direct Democracy. In our republic, we choose who gets to vote for our president, in other words, you chose a <u>representative</u>. In a direct democracy, you chose for your president <u>directly</u>

Using China's commerce power to advance their diplomacy is known as?
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Economic diplomacy

Explanation:

Economic diplomacy is a central aspect of Chinese foreign policy. During China's remarkable economic rise, it has used economic diplomacy primarily through trade, and the use of carrots as a means to accumulate or attract soft power. This was a part of the broader strategy formulated by think tanks in the PRC during the 1990s titled the new security concept. It is referred to in the West as the period of "China's Peaceful Rise".[6]

Recently, China has changed its strategic doctrine and begun to use economic diplomacy as a coercive tool. After 10 years or so of a policy based primarily on economic carrots, China has begun to show a willingness to use economic diplomacy for coercive means.[7] This is evidenced in the September 2010 incident that blocked shipments of rare earth minerals to Japan. Another incident took place in 2012 in the Philippines, where China sent a gunboat in to enforce trade restricts. China's willingness to use bring in warships during trade disputes is reminiscent to an earlier era of American gunboat diplomacy.[8]

Recent history shows that as China grows more confident, we will see it gradually move away from an economic diplomacy policy of carrots, to sticks.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

im a christian. so, its probably best a christian answers this.

Explanation:

you remember at the tower of babel when everyone was trying to build the tower so they can see into heaven and were making it taller and taller. Then, God decided to make all their cultures and languages different. if you think about it religion goes by culture, honesty. God found that it was best for everyone to be different by changing everything so they couldn't understand each other to continue with the tower of babel.  God isn't Christian. The religion of Christianity is based off of man.
