Answer: What are the main differences between authoritarian governments and democratic governments?
Authoritarianism is marked by submission to authority. It is the opposite of individualism, and democracy. In authoritarian government systems the political power is condensed into one authority figure or figures. Generally they assume power, and are not elected by the people.
<span>Entre 1860 y 1914 la Argentina experimentó un acelerado crecimiento económico, caracterizado por la ampliación de su producción exportable y por la unificación de sus mercados interiores, que se basó en gran medida en el ingreso masivo de capitales extranjeros. Estos países, a la par que aumentaron su capacidad exportadora de productos manufactureros, también aumentaron sus necesidades de importación de productos primarios (cereales, lana, carne, etc.). Además se orientó hacia los denominados "países nuevos", que por su escaso desarrollo productivo podrían proveer esos productos a bajo costo: Estados Unidos, Canadá, Australia, Nueva Zelanda, Uruguay y, por supuesto, la Argentina. La exportación de capitales a los países nuevos fomentó una doble especialización: la de los países nuevos, que orientaron su crecimiento hacia la exportación del producto primarios y la Europa occidental que vio complementada y luego sustituida su producción primaria, al tiempo que ampliaba los mercados externos para su producción industrial.</span>
The correct answer is: D. a program to aid European nations to promote prosperity and democracy
The Marshall Plan was an economic aid package that was put forward to work and bring European nations hurting after World War II into the United States' sphere of influence and away from the influence of the Soviet Union.
Both plans involved how the new Constitution would define representation in Congress. The Virginia Plan proposed that the number of delegates be based upon population, thus favoring larger states with more people. The New Jersey Plan proposed that each state have an equal number of delegates, thus favoring smaller states with fewer people.
Under the Virginia Plan, a state like Virginia would have had a much greater say in Congress than smaller New Jersey since Virginia had a larger population. Under the New Jersey Plan, New Jerseyans would have had a disproportionate say relative to Virginians. Consider this, if each state had two delegates (under the NJ Plan) let's say New Jersey had 500,000 people and Virginia had 1,000,000 (not the real numbers). With two delegates, New Jersey would have had 1 say in Congress per 250,000 voters while Virginia would have had 1 say in Congress per 500,000 voters.
These differences were resolved by creating a bicameral legislature. Today, the House of Representatives is a remnant of the Virginia Plan. States with larger populations have more seats in the House than those with smaller populations. For example, California has far more Representatives than Wyoming meaning California has a much greater say in the House. The Senate, on the other hand, is a remnant of the New Jersey Plan. Each state has two Senators regardless of population, which means each state has an equal say. Again, California has two Senators and Wyoming has two Senators despite the fact that California is much larger than Wyoming - this gives Wyoming a much greater say per voters than California. No law can pass through Congress without approval from both chambers of Congress, which means that smaller states are not overpowered, while larger states still have the ability to set the agenda.
The Supreme Court (c) determined race may be a factor when admitting students, but not the only factor. It upheld affirmative action, allowing race to be one of several factors in college admission policy, not just to fulfill a quota.
