History

LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 years ago
3 0
The Civil War ultimately abolished slavery. Yet black people were never truly free due to the Black Codes. The Black Codes were necessary to keep black people in the labor force which mirrored slavery. This is because after the Civil War when all slaves became free, there was a major labor shortage. The Black Codes drew black people back to working the same cheap labor they did as slaves. They also preserved white supremacy and segregation of America because many people in the south still wanted that. The black codes kept black people enslaved, literally.

Contrasting What was the belief of those who opposed the formation of political parties? What was the belief of those who
Nata [24]

Answer: Individuals who opposed political parties saw them as dangerous tools which will lead to the downfall of our Government and disintegration of our union. This most notably can be seen in the birth years of the United States of America, the Founding Fathers warned strongly against factions and party spirit. They feared most greatly that these would cause partisanship, which is were a party will place their interests above the nations.

This can very easily be observed in the U.S.A, it is sadly a two party system (yes their are more but Republics and Democrats dominate the landscape), these two parties control who gets into the Presidential debates (have you ever seen a independent or green party win a state?). They do this by controlling how outspoken individuals in their party are and run campaigns against candidates they do not improve of, as can be seen by the DNC harsh treatment of Bernie Sanders, while backing Biden.

Some see these parties as being here for the interest of their political bodies and not the Nation as a whole.

On the otherhand, you have those who wished for strong politcal parties.

Such can be observed by the Federalists, who were led by Alexander Hamilton.

The Federalists wanted a strong central government and believed that liked minded individuals would foster progress and would lead to unification.

What statement best describes how the concept of popular sovereignty influenced the creation of the declaration of independence
Arlecino [84]

Since you didn't list statement options, allow me simply to offer some summary about the concept of popular sovereignty in the Declaration of Independence.

"Popular sovereignty" means the people are in charge of establishing a government over themselves.    The founding fathers of the United States adopted the idea of popular sovereignty from Enlightenment philosophers like John Locke (of England) and Jean-Jacques Rousseau (of France).

The Declaration of Independence (1776), written primarily by Thomas Jefferson, asserted the concept of popular sovereignty.  The Declaration insisted that people institute governments in order to secure their rights, and that governments get their authority from the consent of the governed.  "Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends," the Declaration of Independence said, "it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
