The correct answer is: "social contract and popular sovereignty".

The Enlightenment philosophers, such as Locke, Monstequieu or Rosseau, introduced ideas that <u>challenged, and ended up derrocating, the power structures of the Old Regime</u>. They promoted reason and the scientific method over religious dogmatism and superstititions.

The main principles developed were the following: definition of bills of citizens' rights, <u>social contract (citizens electing political representatives to create goverments through suffrage, in opposition to the prevailing absolute monarchies)</u>, and the division of the powers of the state in order to avoid excessive power accumulation in certain sectors, and risks of authoritarism.

How did Ronald Reagan assemble his presidential campaign?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Ronald Reagan's 1980 presidential campaign was a successful campaign for Reagan and his running mate George H. W. Bush's election and president and vice president of the United States. They defeated the incumbent Democratic President Jimmy Carter and Vice President Walter Mondale. Reagan, a Republican and former Governor of California announced his third presidential bid in a nationally televised speech from New York City. He campaigned extensively for the primaries after losing the Iowa caucus to Bush. In a republican debate in Nashua before the New Hampshire primary, when the moderator requested his microphone to be turned off, he furiously replied "I am paying for this microphone, Mr. Breen!". In the end, he won 44 states and 59.8% of the vote. He initially decided to nominate former President Gerald Ford as his running mate, but Ford wanted to be given such extended power as vice president (especially over the foreign policy) that their ticket would effectively amount to "co-presidency". As a result, negotiations to form a Reagan-Ford ticket ceased. Bush then selected former CIA director and George H. W. Bush as the vice presidential nominee.

Predict how the economic changes during the roaring twenties could possible lead to an economic disaster
mezya [45]

The Roaring Twenties was a great golden age in America, but ironically, led to its greatest downfall.

Lots of new things became popular among all Americans in the 20's; automobiles, radio, silent movies, etc. People were spending money left and right on these things, and were becoming very materialized. So why am I talking about Americans buying boatloads of stuff they didn't need? Well, this was one of the prime causes of the Great Depression. Americans started buying on margin, or buying with credit; buy now, pay later. People bought so much like this, that they had to borrow lots of money from the banks. As this went on, it built up slowly, and led into buying stocks on margin. This eventually led to the Stock Market Crash of 1929. As people ran to the banks to withdraw all their money, the banks failed, and people lost all their savings in the blink of an eye. Manufacturers soon started producing less and laying off workers as jobs became a demand, and ended up causing the intense unemployment rates throughout the country. And finally, farmers suffered as a massive drought hit the Mississippi Valley in 1930, which created the infamous Dust Bowl.
