Do you think Brown v. Board of Education (1954) served its purpose of societal desegregation well? Or, do you think that that la

ck of legal justification in the decision created a more litigious environment for civil rights law suits? Think about and justify your position. Do Americans change their positions just because the Supreme Court rules a certain way? What negative externalities does public policy, particularly judicial policy create?

It didn't and it did. Just because the case happened in 1954 doesn't mean that schools ended segregation, as a matter of fact it lasted for almost a decade more, if not longer because schools would still refuse to obey. Southern communities were especially supportive of segregation, and even when the civil rights acts were implemented they still didn't support them and they didn't want to be around African-Americans only it had to be hidden. On the other hand, when a Supreme Court makes a decision it does sway people to support it. That is because there is an idea of everyone being equal in the eyes of law and the supreme court is the judge on what is lawful and what isn't based on the constitution. Since there's no greater legal act than the constitution, when the supreme court makes a decision it means that the decision fits the constitution and for many Americans the constitution is almost a holy document that guides their lives. A negative externality can be for example the rise of extremism. During the reconstruction period Ku Klux Klan rose as a negative externality of the era. During the civil acts era they grew stronger again because racist people were enraged by things like desegregation.

How much did the government regulate business practices during the Gilded Age?
11111nata11111 [884]

The Government barely regulated businesses at all during Gilded Age.

  • Gilded Age, a time in American history in the 1870s marked by obscene materialism and apparent political corruption, inspired significant works of social and political criticism.
  • The Gilded Age, a book by Mark Twain and Charles Dudley Warner published in 1873, gave rise to the era's moniker. The book paints a vivid picture of Washington, D.C., and it has caricatures of many influential characters from the era, including avaricious businessmen and dishonest politicians.
  • A group of colorful and brash businessmen who alternately came to be known as "captains of industry" and "robber barons" presided over the immense flurry of industrial activity and corporate expansion that defined the Gilded Age. They amassed wealth by establishing monopolies in the steel, oil, and transportation sectors.

Thus the correct option is Option A.

Answer:

Slavery arrived in North America along side the Spanish and English colonists of the 17th and 18th centuries, with an estimated 645,000 Africans imported during the more than 250 years the institution was legal.  But slavery never existed without controversy. The British colony of Georgia actually banned slavery from 1735 to 1750, although it remained legal in the other 12 colonies. After the American Revolution, northern states one by one passed emancipation laws, and the sectional divide began to open as the South became increasingly committed to slavery. Once called a “necessary evil” by Thomas Jefferson, proponents of slavery increasingly switched their rhetoric to one that described slavery as a benevolent Christian institution that benefited all parties involved: slaves, slave owners, and non-slave holding whites. The number of slaves compared to number of free blacks varied greatly from state to state in the southern states. In 1860, for example, both Virginia and Mississippi had in excess of 400,000 slaves, but the Virginia population also included more than 58,000 free blacks, as opposed to only 773 in Mississippi. In 1860, South Carolina was the only state to have a majority slave population, yet in all southern states slavery served as the foundation for their socioeconomic and political order.
