Social Darwinism goes with hobbes or Locke
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:  Hobbes

Explanation:

Personally, I think it a bit unfair to link Hobbes with the views of Herbert Spencer, who put forth the theory that became known as "Social Darwinism."  I would cite also an article by Peter Amato in <em>Minerva - An Internet Journal of Philosophy</em> (Vol. 6 2002).  But if the choice is between Hobbes and Locke, it's easier to make a "Social Darwinism" comparison or connection with the theories of Hobbes.

Thomas Hobbes published a famous work called <em>Leviathan </em>in 1651.  The title "Leviathan" comes from a biblical word for a great and mighty beast. Hobbes believed government is formed by people for the sake of their personal security and stability in society.  In Hobbes view, once the people put a king (or other leader in power), then that leader needs to have supreme power (like a great and mighty beast).    Hobbes' view of the natural state of human beings without a government held that people are too divided and too volatile as individuals -- everyone looking out for his own interests.  So for security and stability, authority and the power of the law needs to be in the hands of a powerful ruler like a king or queen.  And so people willingly enter a "social contract" in which they live under a government that provides stability and security for society.

The part of Hobbes that would have a similarity to Social Darwinism is that idea that humans by nature are each looking out for their own interest.  "Survival of the fittest" was the term that Herbert Spencer used in applying evolutionary theory to how human beings in society and different human societies function toward one another.  In "Progress: Its Law and Its Cause"( 1857), Herbert Spencer wrote:  "The advance from the simple to the complex, through a process of successive differentiations ... is seen in the evolution of Humanity, whether contemplated in the civilized individual, or in the aggregation of races; it is seen in the evolution of Society in respect both of its political and economical organization."  In his book, <em>Principles of Biology </em>(1864), Spencer stated even more fully the idea of humans being in competition with each other by nature, with the strongest forms surviving.  He wrote:  "This survival of the fittest, which I have here sought to express in mechanical terms, is that which Mr. Darwin has called 'natural selection', or the preservation of favored races in the struggle for life."

Give one example of government regulation and discuss the trade offs associated with it. ​
gtnhenbr [62]
Governments apply a Minimum Wage policy on Businesses to ensure the employees working for the businesses do not get exploited and get paid fairly. The trade off here is that with the Minimum Wage law in effect the businesses would face an increase in labor costs, since they gotta pay them more than if there was no Minimum Wage law, and businesses would lose out on some profit due to this increase in labor costs. To reduce these costs businesses might let go of some employees, either by firing them or making them redundant (either way the employee is losing the job) and this increases the Unemployment Rate in the country which the government does not like, as one of the government’s aims is to keep the Unemployment Rate low in their country but with their Minimum Wage law in effect they keep the businesses in check to ensure they don’t exploit their workers but they end up increasing the Unemployment Rate due to Businesses trying to retain (get back) some of their lost profit (that they lost due to the government’s Minimum Wage law).

All of these are ways a society can improve its productivity Except. A) Education B) Regulation C) Technology D) Trade
Brrunno [24]
The answer in this scenario is regulation (Answer B).

Education results in a more skilled and productive work force, technological advancement improves efficiency and therefore productivity, and trade promotes increases in productivity.

Regulation, while necessary in many industries, is a form of restriction. This often means it drives up the cost in providing goods and services which dampens productivity. It's important to note that regulation is a very important tool to protect certain aspects or parties within an industry. For example, regulation is often in place to limit the maximum price that consumers (like you) can be charged for essential services like energy, water and sewerage.

asambeis [7]

Answer:

The answer is .........more<u> "introverted" </u>than someone........

Explanation:

When a person is focusing more on internal thoughts and feelings and give no importance to external sources of thoughts or moods, that person is introverted. People can be introverts or extroverts but we mostly see that people are in between these two personality traits because these people are focusing on both internal and external sources of thoughts.
