Oligarchy comes from the greek word "oligos" which means " a few" and the word "archos" which means "to Govern", so it is a government system where all the power is gathered by a small group of people, usually richest families in the city or country, it isn´t seen as an open democracy because not only they run the destinities of the country but also develop and create the rules, the law, and manage all the system. Back then we also could find that power in the hands of the oldest men in the country who controlled everything and had a lot of economic power.

balu736 [363]
  In the late 1800s, workers organized unions to solve their problems. Their problems were low wages and unsafe working conditions. ... First, workersformed local unions in single factories. These unions used strikes to try to force employers to increase wages or make working conditions safer.&For those in the industrial sector, organized labor unions fought for better wages, reasonable hours and safer working conditions.

Nookie1986 [14]

Your question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:

As a hungry dog runs ever closer toward a bowl of  food, the less likely it is to stop running until it  reaches the food. This best illustrates that the dog's  running behavior is most strongly affected by  ________ reinforcers.

a) secondary

b) immediate

c) partial

d) negative

Answer:

This best illustrates that the dog's  running behavior is most strongly affected by  <u>b) immediate</u> reinforcers.

Explanation:

We can reach the conclusion above by elimination. A secondary reinforcement is one associated with a primary one. Suppose you're teaching the dog to sit. When the dog sits, you give it a treat (primary reinforcer) and then say, "Good job!" (secondary reinforcer). That is not the case here.

A partial reinforcer is one given every now and then, that is, not every time the desired behavior happens. That is also not the case.

A negative reinforcer is the removal of something that was already present. Imagine you have made your son do the dishes after he misbehaved. When he behaves properly, you tell him he doesn't have to do the dishes anymore. You didn't give him a reward; you simply removed the punishment. That is negative reinforcement.

<u>Therefore, we are left with immediate reinforcers. The dog has already learned that the bowl contains food, that food will be given to him immediately if he reaches the bowl. That is why he doesn't stop nor doesn't get distracted. He is hungry and wants to end his hunger immediately.</u>
