Explain how and to what extent industrialization created the problems facing cities during the gilded age.

History
1 answer:
Setler [38]3 years ago
7 0

During the Gilded age the economy was growing very fast, but Industrialization brought high corruption levels, urban poverty and over-consumption of many items due capitalism was booming.

The railroads controlled all the prices, and farmers needed to rely on the railroads to transport their crops around the country; there was an increase in the number of farmers  so their prices declined, and they were earning less and less; so many farmers lost their land not being able to compete, turning into tenant farming (<em>renting the right to farm</em>) they were farmers without farms. They were not able to keep up with inflation rates either.

I believe it's "Some schools have sought to have the Supreme Court reverse its ruling in a related case with First Amendment implications, Tinker v. Des Moines."

Explanation:

The landmark January 1988 decision in Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier was a giant step back for student press and speech rights. Unlike an earlier Supreme Court ruling that established the so-called Tinker Standard, the Hazelwood decision declared students do shed some of their Constitutional rights at the schoolhouse gate

Describe Wilson’s plan for peace and the reasons why the plan failed.
zepelin [54]

Wilson's plan for world peace was called his "14 Points."  It failed because the Treaty of Versailles did not implement most of his ideas, and the US Senate did not ratify the Treaty of Versailles because of the League of Nations (which was Wilson's idea).

<u />

<u>Context/detail:</u>

President Woodrow Wilson thought that some of the very things that were adopted in the Treaty of Versailles could lead to another war -- and they did.  The Treaty of Versailles included various ideas that went against Wilson's plans for peace.  The treaty was very punitive towards Germany.  Germany was forced to admit responsibility for causing the Great War (World War I).  We now call that "the war guilt" clause of the treaty.  The German military had major restrictions imposed on it -- it had to be a volunteer military only, of no more than 100,000 men, and they could not have an air force. Germany also was forced to pay large reparation payments to the Allies (who opposed Germany in the war).  

US President Wilson had come into the Paris Peace Conference with other views.   Wilson had set forth his views in a speech he delivered to Congress in January, 1918, his "14 Points" speech.  The 14 Points were his proposals for how to end the Great War (World War I) and establish international peace.  Especially key to his ideas was point #14 - the establishment of an international organization to promote and preserve peace.

The Treaty of Versailles did adopt Wilson's 14th point, which led to the formation of the League of Nations.  But back home in the US, Republicans in the Senate feared that commitment to a League of Nations could commit the US to future wars that were not directly related to US national security.  Because of its objections to membership in the League of Nations, the United States Senate refused to ratify the Treaty of Versailles.  Without the USA in the League of Nations, that organization was weakened and did not have much success.
