History
1 answer:
serious [3.7K]4 years ago
3 0
Cultural: The Enlightenment philosophy desacralized the authority of the monarchy and the Catholic Church, and promoted a new society based on reason instead of traditions.
Social: The emergence of an influential bourgeoisie which was formally part of the Third Estate (commoners) but had evolved into a caste with its own agenda and aspired to political equality with the clergy (First Estate) and the aristocracy (Second Estate).
Financial: France's debt, aggravated by French involvement in the American Revolution, led Louis XVI to implement new taxations and to reduce privileges.
Political: Louis XVI faced strong opposition from provincial parlements which were the spearheads of the privileged classes' resistance to royal reforms.
Economic: The deregulation of the grain market, advocated by liberal economists, resulted in an increase in bread prices. In periods of bad harvests, it would lead to food scarcity which would prompt the masses to revolt.

What argument best responds to citizens who do not vote because they feel that their votes do not make a difference?
Degger [83]

The answer is <u>D. Elections are often decided by only a few voters.</u>

This is the best answer because this argument set the basis to explain the importance of every person's vote in a democratic government. Although one's vote might seem like it doesn't make a difference, it actually does, the election results are made of all the persons who relied on the voting system to express their political preference and make a difference. This is true especially in elections when candidates are strong because the elections tend to be decided by only a small difference (a few voters),

Besides, option A is incorrect because voting doesn't aim to symbolize an act, but to choose a leader who will express him/her ideology through the creation of policies that will determine a country's present and future.

Voting isn't less important than other types of civic engagement, it's equally important, if not more.

And voting is not mandatory by law, is a right guaranteed in the constitution that we all have as citizens, but it's not necessarily mandatory.
