Answer:

Government authority comes from the consent of the governed

Explanation:

According to John Locke, people who are citizens of a country were born with certain fundamental human rights such as; right to life, liberty, and property. This was the basis of his theory of Social Contract Theory, which states that there is an actual contract between government and its citizens.

The declaration of independence clearly reflects this perspective of John Locke in it's assertion that the government derives its authority from the consent of the people and the people have a right to resist or replace the existing government with a new system.

777dan777 [17]

immigration affected immigrants and other Americans around the year 1900 is after the depression of the 1890s, immigration jumped from a low of 3.5 million in that decade to a high of 9 million in the first decade of the new century. Immigrants from Northern and Western Europe continued coming as they had for three centuries, but in decreasing numbers. After the 1880s, immigrants increasingly came from Eastern and Southern European countries, as well as Canada and Latin America. By 1910, Eastern and Southern Europeans made up 70 percent of the immigrants entering the country. After 1914, immigration dropped off because of the war, and later because of immigration restrictions imposed in the 1920s. (did that answer your question?)
