Does a relatively safe and prosperous advanced democracy have any obligation towards less well off nations ? Why ir why not

Vladimir [108]3 years ago

Scholars and politicians disagree on this question, and both sides have arguments of value. However, the attitude most democratic countries have adopted is that of thinking they DO have responsibilities towards less developed countries. They provide several arguments for this position:

  • Most developed democracies engaged in colonialism. The countries that were colonized provided colonial powers with resources and a labour force that contributed to their development. Therefore, rich countries developed at the expense of developing countries.
  • A related point is the fact that after decolonization, most powers left without any plan to maintain order. The chaos they left behind has made it difficult for some countries to recover (often including the destruction of previous culture, values, ways of government, etc. that used to maintain order in the communities).
  • The Earth's resources belong to all of humanity, and redistribution is justified on these grounds.
  • A humanitarian argument. We have a duty to help those people who are suffering, regardless of whether they are our neighbours or not.

Answer:

Religion in Israel is manifested primarily in Judaism. Israel is the world's only Jewish-majority state. Smaller faiths include Sunni Islam, Christianity — mostly Melkite and Orthodox — and the Druze. Religion plays a central role in national and civil life, and almost all citizens are automatically registered as members of the state's fourteen official religious communities, which exercise control over several matters of personal status, especially marriage. These are Orthodox Judaism, administered by the Chief Rabbinate, Karaite Judaism, Islam, the Druze faith, the Roman, Armenian Catholic, Maronite, Greek Catholic, Syriac Catholic, Chaldean, Greek Orthodox, Syriac Orthodox, Armenian Apostolic and Anglican churches [2][3] and the Baháʼí Faith (only volunteers from foreign countries)[4].

What does the colonists' selling the defeated survivors of the Pequot Wars into slavery illustrate about their relationship with
daser333 [38]

Answer:

They treated land and American Indians as their property. Also, they had a hostile relationship with the American Indians.

Explanation:

The tensions between the American Indians and the English Colonists was caused due to their choice of trade sources. While the English people traded with the Narragansetts and Mohegans, the Pequot tribe traded with the Dutch. The Pequot tribe began the targeted extermination of some colonists such as John Stone and his seven companions, as well as John Oldham.

The English colonists repaid the attacks with a very intensive and sudden attack in 1637 that completely exterminated the vast majority of the Pequot tribe. The few survivors were sold off as slaves.
