Julli [10]3 years ago

Ancient Roman law -also known as Justinian law- consisted of codified law. A codex was a gathering of all civil Roman law, to ensure that law and justice were clear and transparent.

Nowadays, we can find codified systems in various European and Latin American countries and in some parts of The United States of America, such as Louisiana. These codified systems were inspired and modeled after ancient Roman law.

Legal terminology used today is highly influenced by Latin terminology -this is terminology used in Roman law.-

Regarding ancient Greece, philosophy developed by the Greeks was used by Romans in the process of developing legal theories and deciding on different points of law. The Draconian code, developed by a Greek, was the one that had a homicide law that distinguished between involuntary homicide and premeditated homicide.

Another important thing to highlight is Greek rhetoric, this is the way in which people spoke which has influenced the way in which lawyers speak nowadays.

Zina [86]

Answer:

Economic: shortage of domestic goods

Political: letter bombs sent to government officials

Social: race riots in northern cities

Explanation:

Political: letter bombs sent to government officials.  After World War 1, there was a series of a letter bomb sent to journalists, officials and the representative in the United States by those protesting against capitalism.

Economic: shortage of domestic goods.  After World War 1, there was a shortage of domestic goods in the United States because all the resources that were supposed to be used the production of goods were all used during the war to produce weapons.

Social: race riots in northern cities. The race riots occurred between the Americans and other races. As a result of the war that occurred in the south, the African Americans and other races migrated to the north (the great migration). After the war in the south, the northerners see them as a competition which led to the rift in the northern cities.

jekas [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. In a command economy, government planners are who tell producers what and how much to produce.

Explanation:

A planned economy is one in which the market is dispensed with or has a secondary role in allocating resources. There are several planning models from which the consensus among economic factors arises through the socialization of the means of production in a decentralized environment and the active participation of producers and citizens (collective or community planning) to that organized by a central entity in which the entire economy of the region is coordinated by the government (centralized planning).
