A stateless society is commonly known as a society without formal government, in other words there is no or little concentration of authority. Stateless societies were a norm in the prehistoric times, but nowdays they only exist in a few numbers.

On the other side, as a political ideal some philosophical theories argue that the state is an enemy to the freedom and that the main goal of every society is to be stateless. These ideal is known as anarchism, with it's different schools of thougts.

In the case of Ju/'hoansi or "!Kung", this society of about 30.000 people who live in the deserts in southern Africa, represents one of the few remaining stateless societies today.

Because of the extreme geographical and climate conditions, this society cannot store food supplies and is forced to constantly move in order to find food. But, in the last 50 years Ju/'hoansi managed to store a surplus which also serves as a way of keeping peace and cohesivenes of the group.

Peace and order is also kept by their beliefs that foster peacefulness, by believing in spirits who interfiere in human lives. Also, conflicts are resolved by conversation and openness, when the both sides in conflict decide to tell each other everything in a rapid manner.

But the base of this society is the willingness to share everything, which is a practice that prevailed for a long time.

Above all this, the ability to move to another area and the flexibility of borders in order to ensure a survival of the group is what keeps order and peace in the group.

Answer:

<u>Option C. To enhance memory and ensure maximum retention, one should focus on the meaning of the information and relate it to what one knows.</u>

Explanation:

According to the levels-of-processing theory, recall depends on the degree to which information is initially processed, hence to enhance memory and ensure maximum retention, one should focus on the meaning of the information and relate it to what one knows. The theory, identified by psychologists Fergus Craig, and Robert Lockhart in 1972, states that deeper levels of analysis produces longer term memories, while a more superficial level of analysis will most likely produce a short-term memory. This is why, they state, when trying to memorize something it is always important to focus on understanding the meaning of it and not to  use repetition or visualization methods.

Answer:conditioned response

Explanation:

According to classical conditioning, the conditioned response is a learned from a previously neutral stimulus.

For example if a dog is given food daily by whistling first to call it, over time the dog will associate whistling with food , then whistling is a conditioned stimulus which is associated with unconditioned stimulus which is food.

Conditioned response is learned whilst unconditioned response occurs naturally and automatic without prior learning such as a dog salivating at the taste of it food.
