McCarthy noted that “we are engaged in a final, all out battle.” How did he characterize
sp2606 [1]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

McCarthy noted that “we are engaged in a final, all-out battle.” How did he characterize the two sides in the “battle”?

What Republican Wisconsin Senator Joseph McCarthy did was to confront the American People by accusing that several members of the federal government and the US military had ties with Communists or were Communists.

Why do you think he portrayed the Cold War in this manner?

I think he was a cruel person with peculiar political ambitions because he did accuse people but never present a valid or serious argument or piece of evidence to support his claims. He only accused people, affecting their public image and reputation. And that was so wrong. However, he scared and alienated many citizens and made the federal government investigate the alleged cases.

Lana71 [14]
The Articles of Confederation was the first written constitution of the United States. Stemming from wartime urgency, its progress was slowed by fears of central authority and extensive land claims by states before was it was ratified on March 1, 1781. Under these articles, the states remained sovereign and independent, with Congress serving as the last resort on appeal of disputes. Congress was also given the authority to make treaties and alliances, maintain armed forces and coin money. However, the central government lacked the ability to levy taxes and regulate commerce, issues that led to the Constitutional Convention in 1787 for the creation of new federal laws.

Why is an economic advantage for a developed nation often a disadvantage for a developing nation?
rjkz [21]

Profits for developed nations mean long hours and low pay for workers in developing nations.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

Most of the trades belong to the relation with the country that surrounds it. The lower developing countries always have to depend on the developed country for trade and export.

The prize fixed by the consumer is final and hence the developing countries have low margin profit.  Developed countries for cheap labor hire people from the developing countries. They are not only made to work hard for lower wages but also made to work for long hours.

Due to the updated technical resources competition arises within the international trade and new entries are registered every minute. The country with the lower quote gets the trade and hence forced labor with low pay is the main disadvantage.
