Are there compelling reasons to believe certain values of democracy are threatened by what is happening in our politics today?

Nimfa-mama [501]

If we consider the speech of Barack Obama, when he leaves the presidency of the United States of America, we will believe that there is reason to believe that democracy is threatened.

According to Obama, there are currently 3 threats to democracy, the first of which are forces such as terrorism, increased inequality and demographic changes that threaten the country's security, solidarity and prosperity, but these same forces also threaten democracy . if opportunities are not created for all people in the country, division and dissatisfaction will only become clearer in the coming years, threatening democracy.

Obama also highlighted a second threat, which is the racial issue. "So if we're going to be serious about the racial issue, then we need to maintain anti-discrimination laws - in hiring, housing, education, and the criminal justice system." Said the former president who pointed out that only laws will not suffice to resolve the racial issue. "Hearts must change. It will not be a change overnight." Social attitudes sometimes take generations to change".

Obama also mentioned a third threat to democracy, which is when a group of similar people joins a bubble, be it a community, a church, a social network or a college, and that group brings together similar people with the same political vision. One person never questions the other's hypotheses.

Why does the United States use embargoes as a tool of foreign policy?

loris [4]

Answer:

A. Cutting off all relations with a country is an effective way to show that its actions are unacceptable.

Explanation:

In trade and international politics, an embargo is the prohibition of trading and negotiating with a particular country. It is usually declared by one group of nations against another, in order to isolate it and place its government in a difficult internal situation, since the effects of the embargo often cause its economy to suffer. The embargo is normally used as a political punishment for certain prior policies with which it is not agreed, although its economic nature often leaves enough space to doubt the true interests that benefit from the measure.

The value of the currency of Country X appreciates relative to the currency of Country Y. How will this affect producers?

Mama L [17]

Answer:

1. The correct options are:

Option A. Country X should specialize in automobiles and Country Y should specialize in aeroplanes.

Option D. Country X has both an absolute and a comparative advantage in the production of automobiles.

Option E. Country Y has a comparative advantage in the production of aeroplanes.

This is because of the opportunity cost and the production amount of the goods. It will be an asset for a country if they use small capital for the production of a large number of goods.

2. The correct answer is:

Option C) imports and exports

The balance of trade agreements wholly depends on imports and exports. It is the major element by which the trade deals are maintained.

The stability between export and import tells about the country's situation of being a trade surplus or deficit position.

3. The correct answer is:

Option D. tariffs and quota.

Tariffs are the tax implemented on import goods and quota is employed to restrict the quantity of a particular type of goods and services. The imposition of this acts as an economic blockade to trade.

4. The correct answer is:

Option C. by limiting consumer choice

Option E. by causing prices of domestic goods to rise

When boundaries like tariffs and quotas are executed then the price of the goods increases due to the limited quantity of the supplies.

5. The correct option is:

option B) Free trade agreements usually require countries to reduce trade barriers that protect domestic industries.

Free trade is opposed because it will lower the price of shipped goods from the country and will result in losses and a drop in the economy.

6. The correct answer is:

Option B. Kenya

The family should visit Kenya as the currency exchange rate in the country is the lowest as compared to other nations. Therefore, they will get most local currency in exchange for the dollar.

7. The correct option is:

Option A.Japanese importers of goods from the United States

Option E. Japanese tourists visiting the United States

The imports would become cheaper and more goods can be imported with fewer funds.

Japanese tourists will be able to enjoy more in the United States as the exchange price will favour them.

Which united states foreign policy action best illustrates the concept of containment?

Darya [45]

You didn't provide a list of choices, but I'll provide a key example: The US intervention in Korea. In Korea, when communist forces from the North invaded the South in 1950, the United States intervened (with United Nations backing), battled to keep South Korea free and democratic, and were able to do so. The Soviet Union did not play an active, open role in that war, but did covertly supply <span>material services to the North Korean side, as well as Soviet pilots and aircraft. Keeping communism from spreading in Korea was a way the US was practicing its policy of containment over against Soviet communist influence.</span>
