That another part of the country was living a life contrary to the lives of his target audience.

Jacob Riis wrote the book, "How the Other Half Lives", which highlighted the lives of the poor during the late 1800's. His audience for the book and the photo displays were the upper middle and upper classes to demonstrate how the workers were living. He hoped to encourage charity and reform through better wages, working, and living conditions.

Jacob Riis was considered a muckraker. Muckrakers were journalists who investigated and reported on the "muck" or ugly parts of society. Their goal was often reform by reaching the upper power structures of society to create change. Ida B. Wells wrote on lynching, Ida Tarbell on the oil industry, Upton Sinclair on food production. These writers were responsible for bringing awareness that sparked changed in the early 1900's.

One of the major goals of all interest groups is

ra1l [238]

Answer:

C) persuade public opinion to be in agreement with their

respective views

Explanation:

The concept of “interests group” was introduced into the scientific circulation by the American scientist Arthur Bentley (1908). By this term, he understood a variety of organized groups of people with specific goals and specific requirements for political power.

Interest groups are trying to influence the government, to adjust the political decisions made in their interests. Moreover, interest groups do not seek to gain power - this is their key difference from party groups. However, this does not mean that interest groups do not delegate their representatives to state authorities and do not contribute to the development of their political career. However, this is done for the sake of more effective political influence and the realization of their interests.

Which of the following articles from the Constitution could be used to effectively argue in favor of judicial review?

masha68 [24]

Answer:

4. The judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution, the Laws of the United States, and Treaties made, or which shall be made, under their Authority.

Explanation:

Number 4 is the best option that argues in favor of judicial review as it holds that the judicial's power should extend to ALL cases, in law and equity, under the Constitution, laws or treaties of the nation. Many interpret it to mean that the Judicial, then, has the power to review the actions of the Legislative and the Executive in case they do not comply with the law.

For example, if the legislative branch enacts a law that is not consistent with the Constitution (like a law that establishes a religion) the Supreme Court has the power to review it and declare it unconstitutional as it goes against the first amendment; and if the President were to start collecting taxes (which it is not one of their functions), the Supreme Court would also have the power to declare such act unconstitutional.
