The figure of speech " the face that launched a thousand ships" talks about the most beautiful woman in the world named Helen of Troy. Helen of Troy was the wife of  Menelaus who was then kidnapped by Paris because of the bet between Athena, Her and Aphrodite. Aphrodite had promised Paris that he will have the most beautiful woman in the world if he chooses her. Because of this event, it started a war between Trojans and Greek warriors.


In the modern context, this means the most beautiful woman or someone who possesses the same beauty of Helen of Troy

By the 1970s, what were some effects of the move to liberalism? Check all that apply. Both crime and poverty rates had greatly i
ss7ja [257]

The correct answer is:

- Both crime and poverty rates had greatly increased. With the reduction of social welfare programs advocated by the Neoliberal policies, budgets for the police and for government programs used to mitigate and remedy poverty were greatly decreased. This in turn meant that the police and the social programs had to do a lot more with a lot less resources which inevitable entailed a degradation of their services.

- Budget deficits in the federal government were rising. Indeed, one of the major tenets of neoliberalism is that taxation is a hindrance for the activities and prosperity of the private sector and the rich. This translated into tax cuts for the wealthiest that reduced the income of the federal government and that increased deficits.

- The federal government's role had become very limited. Neoliberals consider that big government is the problem. That is why they always de-fund it as much as they can and enact laws to keep the government from regulating all types of economic activities.

- Divorce rates and drug abuse were becoming major problems. Inevitably, as economic inequalities rise, the quality of life and access to economic and professional opportunities decreases and that puts quit a strain on households that have to cope with extreme unemployment and inflation but with stagnant wages/salaries. Inevitably, such social and economic instability takes a great toll on people and the fact that due to budget cuts to social security and lack of access to universal, comprehensive healthcare prevents them from getting medical/psychological assistance; they will resort to drug abuse in order to mitigate their physical/psychological ailments.

In two or three paragraphs, compare and contrast the points of view of Wilson, Clemenceau, and Lloyd George at the Paris Peace C
Agata [3.3K]

Here is what i wrote for my essay:

World War I was settled by the victors at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919. The “Big Four,” who made all the major decisions, were President Woodrow Wilson of the United States, Prime Minister David Lloyd George of Great Britain, George Clemenceau of France, and of least importance, Italian Prime Minister Vittorio Orlando. Each major power had its own agenda coming to the Conference and not every aim was represented in the final treaties.


Wilson, Clemenceau, and Lloyd George all had different points of view at the Paris Peace Conference. For instance, lloyd George of Britain wanted to build a postwar Britain "fit for heroes". British aims at the conference were focused on securing France, settling territorial disputes, and maintaining their colonial holdings. Clemenceau of France wanted to weaken Germany so it could never threaten France. Having witnessed two German attacks on French soil in the last 40 years, France’s main concern was to ensure Germany would not be able to attack them again, so they pushed to weaken Germany militarily, strategically, and economically. Wilson of the U.S. wanted "peace without victory" with his fourteen points. The Americans’ vision was set out in Wilson’s Fourteen Points, which emphasized free trade, self-determination, and the founding of a League of Nations to support territorial and political independence of member nations.
