Whereas Locke spoke of life, liberty and estate,  the Declaration of Independence speaks in terms of life, liberty, and the <u>pursuit of happiness</u><u>.</u>

In John Locke's way of framing his theory, "life, liberty, and estates" all constitute an individual's personal property.  We normally think of "property" just in terms of one's "estate" -- that is land, house, belongings. From Locke's perspective, however, our property is <u>everything</u> that belongs to us as persons, which begins with our personhood itself.  Having life and personal liberty -- those are the most important things we possess.  Then comes "estate" or our land, house, belongings.

Thomas Jefferson's words in the Declaration of Independence have a similar theme, though worded differently.  Pursuing happiness--a meaningful and fulfilling life--cannot happen unless life and liberty are respected and protected first.

1. How did the Nazi's use terror to rule Germany?
ratelena [41]

Answer:

1. The Nazis created a terror-state. This was achieved through intimidation and brutality. Those living in Germany were too scared to disobey Nazi laws.

Hitler used a number of organizations to uphold and extend his control of Germany.

2. The Nazis tried to make Germany self-sufficient - that is to produce all the goods it needed without having to rely on imported supplies. They called this policy 'Autarky'. The Nazis implemented a major programme of public works, such as building and repairing roads, railways and houses

3. I cant figure out this one

4. Attempts at modifying public opinions, attitudes, and beliefs range from advertising and schooling to “brainwashing.” Their effectiveness is highly controversial. We demonstrate that Nazi indoctrination––with its singular focus on fostering racial hatred––was highly effective. Germans who grew up under the Nazi regime are much more anti-Semitic today than those born before or after that period. These findings demonstrate that beliefs can be modified massively through policy intervention. We also show that it was probably Nazi schooling that was most effective, and not radio or cinema propaganda. Where schooling could tap into preexisting prejudices, indoctrination was particularly strong. This suggests that confirmation bias may play an important role in intensifying attitudes toward minorities.
