Answer:   Locke and Rousseau would be most likely to support a change of government brought about by the people.

You might say this means they would support a revolution by the people against a bad government ... and to an extent that is true.   We might want to be cautious, however, in ascribing too much revolutionary fervor to either of those two philosophers.  Both of them were writing philosophy about how the people should be the sovereign power in a state -- that a government gets its power from the people and needs to serve the interests of the people.  So in theory, they support the people's right to remove a government that has become tyrannical and replace it with a government that works properly on behalf of the people.  But neither Locke nor Rousseau was personally advocating violent revolution.  American colonists took up arms against Britain in response to their sort of philosophy (especially Locke's).  And the bourgeoisie in France started the movement that became the French Revolution based on thoughts in both Lock and Rousseau.  But as Enlightenment thinkers, both men ideally hoped to convince others by means of their arguments that a constitutional form of government was the best idea (Locke), or even that direct democracy was the right way for a state to operate (Rousseau).

How did nuclear weapons influence political relationships during the Cold War ???
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Namely by making WW3 unthinkable. Without nuclear weapons in the picture, a massive conventional war between the United States and Soviet Union would have been virtually inevitable. The very reason it was a "Cold War" at all is thanks to nuclear weapons.

Why do you think the U.S. maintained a position of neutrality in World War II for so long? What was the role of the U.S. in this
Tamiku [17]
The US believed in isolation, if another country attacked the US that is the only way that we would get involved, therefore we tried to stay out of the mass killings and havoc that the Germans and Japanese were creating until we felt that it involved the US. The US did not want to pick a side and have to stay loyal to that side and go to war when that country did because of the alliance. The US finally joined in to help the allied powers to supply them with weapons/military troops. They did not enter the war until December 1941.
