Answer:

b. the inability of rulers to accept change

Explanation:

It was a mockery of bourgeois ideals, a harsh satire on the existing society. The Lilliputian king is very reminiscent of the English King George I. Swift ridiculed inertness and hypocrisy. There is undoubted specificity of the addressees of the Swift merciless, caustic, murderous satire.

The universality-context-specificity issue is concerned with whether:_________.
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

a) we all follow the same or different developmental paths.

Explanation:

Human development refers to the changes we undergo as we grow. These changes could be positive, negative, or neutral. The universal view of these changes explains that there is a fundamental process that accounts for the differences in development.

The context-specific perspective explains that the development that occurs in humans has a direct interconnection to the context where it occurs. It further explains that the environment plays an important role in the development of individuals and that since the environment differs for different people, it is not fundamentally the same. So, in short, the two concepts are concerned with whether we all follow the same path or different developmental paths.
