Whites or dominant group--The dominant group (whites) used prejudice and poor conditions to justify continued poor treatment of minorities especially blacks in America.

The American Dilemma is a concept that the US believes in equality and opportunity but has used their prejudicial beliefs to discriminate against blacks in America. The poor conditions created less success and then "proved" to whites that they were not an equal race thus justifying unfair treatment.

What type of crop is mostly to grow across russia

Juli2301 [7.4K]

<span>Grains, as a whole, remain an important part of the Russian economy. The types of grains produced, however, vary with changes in demand and environmental conditions. Some grains, such as oats, supported Russia economically in the past, but grow in much smaller quantities. While grains export in highest quantities from Russia, legumes follow close behind. Hardy and resilient legumes, including potatoes and beets, prove ideally suited for Russia's cold climates and sub-par soils. Potatoes thrive at Russia's northernmost locations, primarily regions between 50 and 60 degrees latitude. Russian potatoes provide citizens with food and nutrients, and support vodka production as well. </span>

How do economic barriers to trade impact countries that enact them? Select all that apply.

Schach [20]

Answer:

A by causing real median household incomes to decline

C by limiting consumer choice

Explanation:

Negative effects of trade barriers (protectionism) policies include the following:

- weakening competition in the domestic market, and, consequently, incentives to improve production decsrease;

- the welfare of the population is decreasing due the rise in price of imported goods and the relative high cost of domestic goods, the deterioration of the quality of domestic goods, and the restriction of the freedom of choice of consumers;

- the country will suffer large losses due to the non-use of the absolute and relative advantages of the international division of labor and exchange.

This is confirmed, in particular, by the fact that after the Second World War, the gradual removal of trade barriers, such as tariffs and quotas, stimulated growth and increased the level of welfare wherever this happened, partly due to the expansion of the choice of goods for the population at lower prices. More importantly, trade also had a powerful beneficial effect on productivity, that is, on the efficient use of world resources for the production of economic goods.
