Correct answer choice is :


C) The author acknowledges that the violence should stop, but admits that a retreat might have dire consequences.


Explanation:


A paradox is a statement that, notwithstanding possibly sound logic from true assumptions, heads to an apparently-self-contradictory or reasonably unacceptable result. One might also examine a statement that is false which has conflicting elements of truth and lie in it but is overall false to be the opposition of paradox.

The answer is the first one. The paradox is an announcement that, regardless of obviously solid thinking from genuine premises, prompts a self-opposing or a legitimately inadmissible conclusion. Some conundrums have uncovered blunders in definitions thought to be thorough, and have made adages of arithmetic and rationale be reconsidered.

How did the French monarchy consolidate power in the age of absolutism? What were the policies of Henry IV, Richelieu, Mazarin,
Nuetrik [128]

Absolutism is the political regime that is characterized by the meeting of all powers in a single person. These political regimens are more commonly seen in monarchies and as such the French monarchy was no different.

Louis XIV was the best example of an absolute ruler, his infamous quote "I am the state" was statement that came from the steps it took to make it possible for him to rule unquestioned.

These included:

  • Subjugating the noble class
  • Creation of a bureaucratic state
  • Collecting taxes for the crown
  • A loyal and large army
  • Religious uniformity (Henry IV converted to catholicism in order to rule the largely catholic predominant country)

All these steps and policies along with help from Richelieu (eliminating domestic factions and restraining the power of the nobility), Mazarin (advocating the divine right of kings) and Colbert (raising taxes and tariffs to aid the State treasury of France) made it possible for the consolidation of the French monarchy in the 17th century.

Sati [7]

Answer:

Thus, President Roosevelt opted for American neutrality. However, on a personal basis, he did feel that this war was fundamentally different from World War I: in his own view, Germany was the clear aggressor this time and therefore the U.S. had the duty to help the Allies to fight against Hitler's aggression
