How did Hamilton’s and Jefferson’s different experiences relating to the writing of the Constitution affect their roles as membe

slamgirl [31]3 years ago

Both men foresaw the US as a great future power. However, they differed on the path the nation was to follow in achieving this role. While Jefferson preferred an agrarian nation, Hamilton favored an industrial and business intensive nation. As such, Jefferson detested Hamilton's idea of a strong federal government. Jefferson wanted the bulk of power to rest with the states. While Hamilton distrusted popular will and believed that the federal government should wield considerable power in order steer a successful course, Jefferson placed his trust in the people as governors. These major views were behind polarizing Washington's cabinet into two distinct factions. Hamilton's followers became known as Federalists and Jefferson's Democratic-Republicans.   Hamilton and Washington were already close to one another so it makes sense that Washington gave Hamilton the attention he did.  More than anything Hamilton's views were prized by Washington; he very well may have been the most socially liberal and economically liberal man of his time, Jefferson stood to counter this with ultra-conservative views and policies. The idea was for there to be a sort of balancing act with the cabinet and it worked out quite well for Washington and the united states.  <span>Perhaps because of their differences of opinion, Washington made these two men his closest advisors.</span>

How did the Missouri Compromise spark or ignited sectionalism within the United States.
mote1985 [20]

Sectionalism was very much a part of the Missouri Compromise, with two main sections of the country -- North vs. South -- divided over the issue of slavery.

The Missouri Compromise (1820) admitted Missouri into the Union as a slave state with Maine being added at the same time as a free state, to keep the balance of slave and free states equal.  The Missouri Compromise also prohibited any future slave states north of the latitude line 36 1/2 degrees north of the equator in territories of the Louisiana Purchase, with the exception of Missouri (north of that line) being admitted as a slave state.

A couple decades later, that sectional debate was sparked still further by the acquisition of lands from Mexico after the Mexican-American War.  The Mexican Cession was the large region of land that Mexico ceded to the United States in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848.  It included territory that would later become the states of California, Nevada, Utah, and parts of what would become Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming.  The Mexican Cession reignited tension on the issue of slave-holding states vs. free states.   Since the Missouri Compromise had specified only the Louisiana Purchase lands with its  36 1/2 degrees latitude dividing line, new debate arose over whether territories in the Mexican Cession territory would be slave or free states.

Oxana [17]

Well first off, I would notify a parent and let them know what your brother did.

Second off, don't let your brother hit you with things.

And third, if he's being rude, you have the right to ignore him.

1_.¿Cual es la ventaja de que Chile genere relaciones de comercio internacional con otros países? 2_.¿Existe algún peligro para
Stels [109]

Las respuestas correctas para estas preguntas abiertas son las siguientes.

1) ¿Cuál es la ventaja de que Chile genere relaciones de comercio internacional con otros países?

Una de las mayores ventajas es que pueda establecer convenios de intercambio comercial favorables para el país, que le permitan exportar sus mercancías a precios competitivos a diferentes países, incluyendo un acuerdo de tarifas razonables que incentive la exportación. De igual manera, Chile requiere importar varios insumos y productos. De ahí que necesita firmar acuerdos comerciales en los que los precios de las importaciones también sean razonables.

2) ¿Existe algún peligro para la economía nacional chilena el ser dependiente del resto de economías internacionales?

El riesgo que se corre al ser dependiente del resto de las economías es que la fluctuación de las diferentes Bolsas de Valores de países poderoso, impacte directamente en los precios de los productos y servicios que importa Chile.

Debido a la globalización, hoy existe una relación muy directa entre las economía mundiales tanto para lo bueno, como para lo malo. Por eso, cuando un país poderoso resiente un cambio en su economía, por lo regular hay consecuencias en otros países, sobre todo en países en vías de desarrollo como Chile.
