Answer:
The two ways the 17th Amendment addressed the concern expressed in the cartoon is by establishing the election of senators by popular vote. In the original articles of the Constitution, senators were elected by state legislators. This was a political cartoon supporting the 17th Amendment. It portrayed the amendment as a path to Democracy once covered by obstacles and/ or boulders. The 17th Amendment - The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, elected by the people there of, for six years; and each Senator shall have one vote. The electors in each State shall have the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the State legislators. When vacancies happen in the representation of any State in the Senate, the executive authority of such State shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies: Provided that the legislator may direct. This Amendment shall not be so construed as to affect the election or term of any Senator chosen before it becomes valid as part of the Constitution.
All three are ways of approaching the economic system and how much the government should be involved in that system.
Capitalism involves private ownership of businesses with little to no government interference or regulation. Most countries do not run on laissez-faire capitalism in which there is no gov't regulation. However more run as a blend between capitalism and socialism.
In socialism, the government owns the means of production and sets pricing, wages, quotas, and production. Often managers are government appointed and the workers all receive an equal wage for their work. Cooperation is key to the success of socialism. This is also the step between an overthrow of capitalism to full communism.
In communism, the means of production are owned by the people and the gov't is no longer needed to regulate business and/or wages. It is a complete cooperative state where the workers work for the good of all.
Answer:
c. Communist Revolution in Russia.
Explanation:
- At the beginning of the 20th century, Russia was one of the most backward states of Europe.
- Although feudalism was formally abolished, it remained a semi-feudal state with a very strong emperor power.
- In addition to Turkey, the last of the great powers passed a constitution (1906), and reforms were difficult to implement. With this system, no one was happy.
- The material appropriations for the war made the position of the impoverished Russian people even more difficult. The food shortage, their smuggling and the massive casualties on the Eastern Front led to revolutions during 1917.
- The first was in February - the overthrow of the imperial system and the seduction of Parliamentarism, and the second in October, where civil Parliamentarism was overthrown and a new, socialist social order was established.
