All of the above are correct. I'll explain:

Work became more dangerous in the 1800's. This was a result of the increase in industrialization, it caused machines to be more powerful, and easier to cause harm. Also, workers in the late 1800´s had a very low standard of living, consequence of their low wages.  So this caused 4 things:

  • Low skilled jobs often didn't result in better wages or better and safer working conditions, so they attempted to try to get into a skilled trade.
  • They often demanded higher wages because jobs often came with very low wages for workers.
  • Workers began to join forces to gain enough power to impose better wages and working conditions. They joined forces with other employees creating 'working unions'.
  • Sometimes they just tried to find a better job when none of the other options were available, or didn't work at all.

I hope this helps understand why all of the options are correct. Working in the 1800's was a risky business!

Have a great week!

Which of the following was a significant long-term cause of the collapse of the Soviet Union during the late twentieth century?
natita [175]

The correct answer is C) The dismantling of the Berlin Wall and the end of restrictions on emigrating from communist countries.

A significant long-term cause of the collapse of the Soviet Union during the late twentieth century was the dismantling of the Berlin Wall and the end of restrictions on emigrating from communist countries.

After many years under the Communist regime, the Soviet Union split in December 1991. During those Communist years, the USSR never allowed private property in the Soviet United. The state was the owner of the means of production.

So when Gorbachev decided to implement glasnost and perestroika reformations, he had to carefully proceed because these involved some kind of risk. Glasnost allowed people more rights such as the freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Perestroika allowed new and private investments to revitalize the difficult economic conditions of Russia.

The Soviet Union ceased to exist on December 26, 1991. Gorbachev had resigned one day before and the new leader of Russia was Boris Yeltsin.

How did the growth of resistance movements in Eastern Europe lead to the collapse
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mikhail Gorbachev’s reformist policies in the Soviet Union merely served to encourage opposition movements to the Communist regimes in the Soviet bloc countries. Demonstrations became more frequent. Governments were forced to accept measures, recommended, moreover, by Gorbachev, towards liberalisation. However, these measures were not deemed to be sufficient.Hopes of freedom, long suppressed by the Communist regimes in the countries of the Soviet bloc and in the USSR itself, were inevitably fuelled by Mikhail Gorbachev’s attempted reforms in the Soviet Union and his conciliatory policy towards the West. It proved impossible to maintain reformed Communist regimes. They were entirely swept away by the desire for political democracy and economic liberty. Within three years, the Communist regimes collapsed and individual nations gained freedom, initially in the USSR’s satellite countries and then within the Soviet Union itself. The structures of the Eastern bloc disintegrated with the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact and Comecon. The Soviet Union broke up into independent republics.In Poland, economic reforms led to strikes in the spring and summer of 1988. The Solidarity movement called for trade union pluralism. During the Round Table negotiations, which enabled the gradual creation of the Third Polish Republic, the Polish Communist leaders recognised the social movement in April 1989. Solidarność was therefore able to take part in the first semi-legal elections since the Second World War. The elections, held on 4 and 18 June, saw the collapse of the Communist Party, and Tadeusz Mazowiecki became the first non-Communist head of government in Eastern Europe. He was appointed on 19 August 1989 and endorsed by an overwhelming majority by the Polish Sjem on 8 September 1989 as a result of a coalition between Solidarity, the agricultural party and the Democratic party. In December 1989, Lech Wałęsa, symbolic leader of Solidarność, replaced General Jaruzelski of the Polish United Workers’ Party as President. The victory of the trade union’s candidates in these elections triggered a wave of peaceful anti-Communist revolutions in Central and Eastern Europe.In Hungary, demonstrations against the regime increased during 1987 and 1988. The Opposition became more organised, and reformers entered the government in June 1988. On 18 October 1989, the Stalinist Constitution was abandoned, and Hungary adopted political pluralism. Earlier that year, in May, the ‘Iron Curtain’ separating Hungary from Austria had been dismantled, which enabled many East Germans to flee to the West.In Czechoslovakia, a programme of reforms inspired by those of the USSR was adopted in December 1987 but was not widely implemented. The regime became more oppressive and suppressed demonstrations in 1988.In the German Democratic Republic (GDR), opposition to the Stalinist regime grew. Huge demonstrations took place, and increasing numbers of East Germans fled the country. The government would not consider any kind of reform, counting on the intervention of Soviet troops stationed in the GDR. Gorbachev, however, refused to help, having renounced Brezhnev’s doctrine of legitimate intervention in fellow Communist countries. From that point on, the Communist regime crumbled. The Wall which had divided Berlin since 1961 came down on 9 November 1989, and East Germans were interested only in reunification with the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG).The fall of the Berlin Wall had a significant impact. The collapse of the Communist regime in East Germany, which had gone ahead with the Soviet Union being powerless to put up any effective opposition, led to German reunification, an event which had a direct influence on the European integration process. In order to integrate a reunified Germany successfully into Europe, it was vital to strengthen the European Community by establishing a European Union which would include an Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and a political union. This was the objective of the Maastricht Treaty of 7 February 1992.The reunification of Germany further accelerated the demise of the Communist governments. In Czechoslovakia, the Opposition leader, Václav Havel, was unanimously elected interim President of the Republic by the parliament of the Socialist Republic on 29 December 1989. In the same vein, the anti-establishment Civic Forum movement won the first free parliamentary elections on 8 June 1990 and reappointed Václav Havel as President of the Republic in July of that year. In Hungary, the parliamentary elections held on 2 April 1990 resulted in the formation of the Democratic Forum government. On 9 December 1990, Lech Wałęsa became President of the Republic of Poland. In Bulgaria, a coalition government was formed on 7 December 1990, and a new Constitution was adopted on 9 July 1991. In Romania, following violent demonstrations, the Communist dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu was executed
