At the end of World War II, the United States became the true winner. Its territory was not touched by the war and its economy continued a remarkable expansionary rhythm, since its war industry became an industry of peace stimulated by the internal demand and by the order of merchandise destined to the Marshall Plan.

Thus, the United States became the richest state in the world, with 7% of the world population consuming 45% of its wealth.

In the war the United States not only developed its economic, military and nuclear power, but also accumulated symbolic and strategic power after proclaiming itself as a defender of democracy and freedom. The most important effect of this was that it managed to erect a consensus among the American population that was the effective and necessary social base of the new imperial and hegemonic power of the capitalist world.

How do we see the moon if it does not produce light ?

tatiyna

Hello!

We are able to see the moon because the sun shines light onto it. Depending on the location of the moon around the Earth, we can see more or less of it at different times. When the moon is directly across from the sun, we can see a full moon. When the sun is behind the moon, no light is reflecting onto it. This results in a new moon.

I hope this helps you!

Which were the 2 main forms of decolonization?

ELEN [110]

Answer:

scholars have identified three types of cause of decolonization: metrocentric, peripheral, and international. In short, these involve causes in the imperial power, in the colonized territory, and in the wider world.

in my opinion peripheral would not be included on a basic level and you question states only 2 so i would think metrocentric and international.
