Economic factors including especially the level of technology attained by a particular society and the economic relations into which men enter on the basis of that technology exert a decisive influence on the course of political, social, and intellectual evolution is known as economic interpretation.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An Economic Interpretation of the Constitution of the United States argues that the structure of the Constitution of the United States was motivated primarily by the personal financial interests of the Founding Fathers; Beard contends that the authors of The Federalist Papers represented an interest group themselves.

Basically, Beard argued that the U.S. Constitution was adopted in order to protect the rights and interests of the wealthy, upper-class members of society. The 'Founding Fathers' were members of this upper-class group.

What are examples of actions taken by Congress that were not based on the Elastic Clause? I NEED HELP IT IS URGENT
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The Elastic Clause of the United States Constitution, inserted in its Article I, Section 8, empowers the federal Congress to take the measures and carry out the necessary actions to guarantee the normal performance of its explicit powers, that is, those that are written in the Constitution. Thus, the Elastic Clause expands the powers of Congress.

Now, many prerogatives of Congress are found in the text of the Constitution itself, which does not arise from the Elastic Clause. A clear example of this is the power to declare war, or the power to establish lower courts than the Supreme Court.
