Answer: postformal

Explanation: Postformal thinking or thought could be attributed to a flexible, logical or intellectually complex reasoning whereby a postformal thinker may look to apply abstract reasoning to real life circumstances while also simultaneously considering the possibility of such thought or idea in the real world.

After developing an abstract thought, postformal thinkers then evaluates and weighs such thought on the basis of practicality, and how realistic the idea is to its intended application.

In the context above, after Jane had developed an idea from reasoning, she evaluated the performance based on practicality and how realistic it is in the real world.. This is called postformal thinking.

Why were southern states so opposed to outlawing slavery
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

In the 1830s, American abolitionists, led by Evangelical Protestants, gained momentum in their battle to end slavery. Abolitionists believed that slavery was a national sin, and that it was the moral obligation of every American to help eradicate it from the American landscape by gradually freeing the slaves and returning them to Africa.. Not all Americans agreed. Views on slavery varied state by state, and among family members and neighbors. Many Americans—Northerners and Southerners alike—did not support abolitionist goals, believing that anti-slavery activism created economic instability and threatened the racial social order.

But by the mid-nineteenth century, the ideological contradictions between a national defense of slavery on American soil on the one hand, and the universal freedoms espoused in the Declaration of Independence on the other hand, had created a deep moral schism in the national culture. During the thirty years leading up to the Civil War, anti-slavery organizations proliferated, and became increasingly effective in their methods of resistance. As the century progressed, branches of the abolitionist movement became more radical, calling for the immediate end of slavery. Public opinion varied widely, and different branches of the movement disagreed on how to achieve their aims. But abolitionists found enough strength in their commonalities—a belief in individual liberty and a strong Protestant evangelical faith—to move their agenda forward
