The idea of the social contract theory comes from Jean Jacques Rousseau's book the Social Contract but one of the most prominent philosophers that discussed the idea was Thomas Hobbes who describes social contract as a contract between the individuals and the government, whose authority comes from the people. The people would cede some of their rights to the government for protection and the sovereign is bound by the wishes of the people as it is they that govern his decisions.

So the question of John Stuart Mill relate to the theory of the social contract very much. The main issue is exactly how many rights would the people have to cede and what would be the right balance between the independence and the obedience to the social contract. That is a very thin and tricky line to navigate.

When the framers were designing the american presidency, they were primarily concerned with achieving a balance between?
IRINA_888 [86]
The framers of the US Constitution were worried about keeping a balance between the power of the presidency and the power of the other branches of the federal government.

This is evident from the fact that the Constitution establishes a system of checks and balances. This ensures that the legislative and judicial branch have the ability to regulate the presidents power. This fear of a strong central leader stemmed from America's experience as part of the British Empire. After seeing how King George III abused his power, the framers wanted to make sure that this would not happen again.

4. What impact did the Chinese Revolution have on the Cold War?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

On October 1, 1949, Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong declared the creation of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The announcement ended the costly full-scale civil war between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Nationalist Party, or Kuomintang (KMT), which broke out immediately following World War II and had been preceded by on and off conflict between the two sides since the 1920’s. The creation of the PRC also completed the long process of governmental upheaval in China begun by the Chinese Revolution of 1911. The “fall” of mainland China to communism in 1949 led the United States to suspend diplomatic ties with the PRC for decades.

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The Alien and sedition acts gave the federal government effective authority yo stifle any public criticism, and were aggressively used by the Adams administration to that effect.

Explanation:

In 1798 president Adams responded to the French war threat by passing the Alien and Sedition acts, which prohibited any form of manifestation against the Federal government. This was done in order to secure the liberties of all Americans against any foreign threats. However, there was an internal tension which could escalate to civil war between the Federalists and the democrats, because the latter garnered non- native supporters. the Adams administration decided to take control and prohibit any form of public opposition to the federalist government in terms of internal and foreign policy or any other grievance.
