HELP!!! Compare and contrast the Articles of Confederation with the U.S. Constitution, showing the strengths and weaknesses of e

AnnyKZ [126]

The American Colonist's fear for a center of power such as King George III decided that The Articles of Confederation would have strong state governments and a weak federal government. The Articles allowed the U.S. to win the Revolutionary War and established the Land Ordinance of 1785. This policy explained the process in which new land would be sold, organizing towns using a grid system. The Articles allowed territories to achieve statehood with a population of at least 60,000. Slavery was banned in territories north of the Ohio River, which gave equal rights to all.
However, the weak federal government could not tax citizens (this contributed to Shay's Rebellion). They barely had enough authority to raise an army or create a law, let alone enforce them.

The U.S. Constitution uses a strong state government and an even stronger federal government. This form of government balances out the power to three separate branches in a system called Checks and Balances. It guarantees items stated in the Bill of Rights, which apply to all. The Constitution also guarantees the rights to all U.S. citizens specified in the Preamble (I've inserted a link below in case you need it). Being a representative democracy, the U.S. Constitution makes sure that all perspectives and states will be represented in court. Still, the COnstitution still struggles for full equality to this day. The original file written by Jefferson did not include equal rights for Native Americans, African Americans or women (feared secession from Southern states). If there is any corruption in at least one of the branches, the other two may not be strong enough to balance it out.

All of the following were concerns that shaped politics during the gilded age except?

Musya8 [376]

The options for this question aren't correct and are probably of another question.

Thus let's see the general features of the Gilded Age:

The Gilded Age is the period between the end of the Civil War and the beginning of the 20th century. Its name was given by a book by Mark Twain called <em>The Gilded Age: A tale of today</em>.

This period is characterized by the growth of monopolies in the economy that led to many corruption scandals where politicians plotted with industrialists and businessmen. An expression famous at the time was robber barons.

It was also an age of great industrialization of the country that led to many changes in the social structure of the society. More fabrics meant a growth in the working class that was violently explored by the bourgeoisie. That's why in this period there was also an increase in labor movements. Violent exploration of the working class led to a moment of economic growth and production of wealth that wasn't equally distributed.

In this period the US received thousands of immigrants that created a large population of poor people in the cities living in tenements. This was famously shown in the book <em>How the other half lives</em> by Jacob Riis, himself a Danish migrant.

It was also a time of railroad expansion with the construction of the Transcontinental Railroad and the muckracking journalism where reporters would focus their work on exposing corruption between politicans and the economic elite.
