 <span>Mercantilism was an economic theory that posited that the richer a nation was,the more powerful it would be.It was the dominant economic system in the West throughout the 18th century. 

Colonies could be exploited for cheap raw materials - furs,lumber,fish and so on - that could be used to feed the home populations of the colonizing countries,and for use in producing manufactured goods in these countries.America had all these things in abundance,which encouraged European colonization there.</span>

1. Examine the ways in which the media stereotypes certain groups. Which groups benefit the most from this stereotyping ? Which
marin [14]
Oh no.

Okay so first lets talk about what stereotypes are. Stereotypes are essentially what society has made as the “commonality” of the populations of certain races, social groups and social tendencies.
Okay, now that that is out of the way:

The media sometimes stereotypes groups of people based on something most people don’t think about; that being Political groups. For example, CNN and FOX news have really bad habits of talking about the “stereotypical” conservative or the “stereotypical” democrat. If you pay attention to certain clips from these stations, you will see stereotyping as well as less than friendly conversations involving politics.
Next up, who benefits? Well, people who want the attention frankly. People can use stereotypes to actually make a point or to even further disprove stereotypes.
Who is harmed? People of color. That is kind of the obvious answer unfortunately. People of color have stereotypes that don’t put them in the best light. Frankly, I find it biased and not true, however people sometimes believe in these stereotypes. So sometimes these stereotypes can harm the people of color.
Finally, how does it affect the political sphere? People are labeled and the political sphere becomes more radicalized. When stereotypes are pushed forward and when people believe it, ideas become radicalized. This is NOT good, radical opinions often bring hatred and EXTREME bias with them.


Hope that helps and good morning!!!

Why did the French government use force against its own people
Darina [25.2K]

The French government used force against its own people because of the revolution that occurred there. A revolution is an over throw of the government within the country by its citizens. During a revolution force is used by the government to prevent the over throw of its leadership. The French Revolution occurred from 1789 - 1799. One of the reasons that the French Revolution started was as a result of expensive spending by King Louis XVI, which brought the country near bankruptcy. Some issues that arose from this was food shortage, rising food prices and unemployment. The citizens was disatisfied and began the revolution.
