History

juin [17]3 years ago

The Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution which is found in Article VI, Clause 2, creates that the Constitution, federal laws made pursuant to it, and treaties made under its power, constitute the supreme law of the land. It is called the "linchpin of the constitution" because it joins the National Government and the states into a single governmental unit, a federal government.

Answer:

Charles Darwin (1809–1882)

Context for Darwin:

• Growth of scientific education and institutions

• Declining church attendance and growing secularization

• New social discourses

o Positivism and the growing prestige of science — Auguste Comte (1798–1857), Positive

Philosophy (1830–1842); science as culminating point of human intellectual and social

development.

o Materialism — mental and spiritual forces and cultural ideals were seen to be the product of

physical forces; truth found in material existence, not intuition or feeling.

Darwin’s major contributions and ideas

• On the Origin of Species (1859)

o Theory of natural selection articulated as the principle mechanism through which evolution

occurred; similar ideas were developed nearly simultaneously by Alfred R. Wallace (1823–1913).

o More living organisms came into existence than could survive; variety of species is infinite;

new biological forms emerged from older ones.

o Those species possessing unique traits that made survival possible were thought to have a

marginal advantage; only those well adapted to a specific environment survived to reproduce.

o Life constituted a competitive struggle for existence (some textbooks note Darwin borrowing

ideas for this theory from Thomas Malthus).

• The Descent of Man (1871)

o Discussed implications of natural selection for humans.

o Indicated that the human body, consciousness and religious intuition evolved to ensure the

survival of the species.

o A divine being was not needed to provide an image or model for humanity.

Consequences (challenges to traditional ways of thinking)

• Called into question biblical narrative of creation; challenged traditional Judeo-Christian view of nature

as immutable and humanity as the unique creation of God.

• Challenged Enlightenment perspectives.

o Rejected the idea that nature and society were harmonious by focusing instead on ideas of

competition and continual struggle.

o Undermined assumption that nature was tranquil and noble and humans were univers

Why were spheres of influence established in China?
worty [1.4K]
China was itself an established empire and could not be conquered the same way as they did Africa and India.

What you are saying is basically equal to saying why not land in England (during that period) and turn everyone into slaves.

Since that is impossible, establishing spheres of influence allows major powers to break China from the inside.

The major powers of europe, Japan, and America ganging up on china during those days is the main reason behind China's firm foreign policy today.
