What was life like in Western Europe during the dark ages

History
1 answer:
d1i1m1o1n [39]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The Dark Ages was referencing  the period between the fall of the Roman Empire and the Renaissance which is the 5th – 14th centuries. It was implied that this period saw little scientific and cultural advancement...

Explanation:

The Dark Ages were not good for anyone unless  you were on the bottom 90% of the society...then the falling of the Western Empire meant an improvement. Slaver vanishes, the burdens of taxes on you were decreased, society became less confusing, regional production improved and people were in most cases, taller and healthier than during the Late Imperial period. The fact that all Continental Barbarian nations adopted Latin language and Roman law and attempted to salvage what salvageable was, meant civilization did not collapse altogether. If you were on the top 10% of the society, the Dark Ages were a catastrophe; the Empire was gone, as was the international trade, literacy had collapsed with the papyrus trade and hyperinflation had meant monetary trade had collapsed and replaced with barter trade.

What were the core values that inspired<br> various Vietnam conflict protests?
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The student movement arose to demand free speech on college campuses, but as the US involvement in the Vietnam war expanded, the war became the main target of student-led protests.

News coverage of the war, which included graphic visual testimonies of the death and destruction in Vietnam, turned US public opinion increasingly against the war.

Revelations that the Johnson and Nixon administrations had lied to the American people about the war undermined the public’s trust in government.

Origins of the student movement

The student movement arose at the University of California at Berkeley in 1964, when students involved in civil rights activism chafed at the university’s sudden attempt to prevent them from organizing politically on campus. The Free Speech Movement arose to challenge the university’s restrictions on political speech and assembly.^1

Soon, other student groups were springing up across the nation with similar demands. Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) formed at the University of Michigan and issued the Port Huron Statement, which criticized US foreign policy and attacked the Cold War assumptions underlying it.

Some of these student groups became a major part of the New Left, a broad-based political movement that challenged existing forms of authority, while others embraced a counterculture that promoted sexual liberation and unabashed drug use.^2

Vietnam and the rise of the antiwar movement

As the US involvement in the Vietnam War intensified, so did antiwar sentiment. Especially after 1965, when President Lyndon Johnson dramatically escalated the US troop presence and bombing campaigns in Vietnam, the war became the focal point for student political activism.

Student groups held protests and demonstrations, burned draft cards, and chanted slogans like “Hey, hey LBJ, how many kids did you kill today?” Massive US spending on the war effort contributed to skyrocketing deficits and deteriorating economic conditions at home, which turned more segments of the American public, including religious groups, civil rights organizations, and eventually even some Vietnam veterans, against the war.

Although antiwar activism constrained the president’s ability to further escalate the war effort after 1965, it also lent credence to the conservative portrayal of a chaotic society desperately in need of “law and order.”
