Why did car ownership rise in the postwar years?
maria [59]

It is a combination of factors, including new technology and the transformation of the American manufacturing economy, from producing war-related items to consumer goods at the end of World War II. By the end of the 1950s, one in six working Americans were employed either directly or indirectly in the automotive industry. The United States became the world's largest manufacturer of automobiles, and Henry Ford's goal of 30 years earlier—that any man with a good job should be able to afford an automobile—was achieved

The 1950s were pivotal for the American automobile industry. The post-World War II era brought a wide range of new technologies to the automobile consumer, and a host of problems for the independent automobile manufacturers. The industry was maturing in an era of rapid technological change; mass production and the benefits from economies of scale led to innovative designs and greater profits, but stiff competition between the automakers. By the end of the decade, the industry had reshaped itself into the Big Three, Studebaker, and AMC. The age of small independent automakers was nearly over, as most of them either consolidated or went out of business.

A number of innovations were either invented or improved sufficiently to allow for mass production during the decade: air conditioning, automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, seat belts and arguably the most influential change in automotive history, the overhead-valve V8 engine. The horsepower race had begun, laying the foundation for the muscle car era.

9. What beliefs, values or morals dictated Greek life?
Andreas93 [3]

Greek life was heavily influenced by belief in Greek gods. The Greeks believed that the gods were very powerful, but they were not perfect and showed human feelings with great intensity, including feelings like anger, anger and jealousy, which are exactly the feelings that the Greeks would like to avoid because they feared being punished by the gods and by for this reason, they made tributes and prayers.

In addition, Greek values established well-defined gender roles. For men, the values and concepts of this society required them to be strong and provide for the needs of their home. In addition, men should be educated, educated, knowledgeable about art, science and politics. Women, on the other hand, should be gentle, take care of their husband's welfare and be responsible for domestic matters. In addition, they should not interfere in male affairs such as politics, science and economics.

In general, the society of Greece dictated that values such as justice, righteousness, understanding and peace were followed by all citizens.
