History

Correct answer:  A) Review acts of the government and determine if they are constitutional.

More detail:

Judicial review refers to the courts' ability to review any law to see if it violates any existing law or any statute of a state constitution or the US Constitution.  On the federal level, Marbury v. Madison (1803) is considered the landmark case for the Supreme Court asserting its authority of judicial review, to strike down a law as unconstitutional.

It was sort of a roundabout way in which the principle of judicial review was asserted by the Supreme Court in the case of Marbury v. Madison. William Marbury had been appointed Justice of the Peace for the District of Columbia by outgoing president John Adams -- one of a number of such last-minute appointments made by Adams.  When Thomas Jefferson came into office as president, he directed his Secretary of State, James Madison, not to deliver many of the commission papers for appointees such as Marbury.  Marbury petitioned the Supreme Court directly to hear his case, as a provision of the Judiciary Act of 1789 had made possible.  The Court said that particular provision of the Judiciary Act was in conflict with Article III of the Constitution, and so they could not issue a specific ruling in Marbury's case (which they believe he should have won).  Nevertheless, in making their statement about the case, the Court established the principle of judicial review.

How are modern pandemics different from the pandemics of the past?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

There are very different factors that make modern pandemics different from the pandemics of the past, but the easiness that modern pandemics have to spread globally more rapidly, is one of the most important.

Explanation:

First of all, let's take a look at pandemics. They are outbreaks of certain diseases, that come from viruses, bacteria, etc. This is their major characteristic, they go out of total control and cross territories. Now, considering modern transportation. Pandemics can grow at a very alarming pace. Airplanes, light trains, metro, cruisers, and many other modern sources of transportation make Pandemics a phenomenon with more easiness of spreading and impact on society.

In the second hand, even though medicine and research have improved a lot. They cannot prevent spreading at such large scales of speed and space. Because they travel at such big speeds that the prevention is almost unreachable. The best resources of medicine still cannot make her pass from reactive. Because there are just not enough to prevent the spread. Let's look at an example: there are no medical or technological resources to know all the conditions a regular person can have, at any moment. We have no cameras or scanners that could tell us the specific condition of somebody in real-time. But we do have vehicles that can take an infected person from one country to other in less than 1 hour.
