They objected to the high prices charged by large utility companies.
Thanks to the big business development and advertising achievement the American society focused on consumerism a lot more. Advertising started creating need for things that weren't really all that necessary but people started buying them more and more. Since the US was a manufacturing powerhouse after World War 2, they made more and more and exported it but still they made a lot so it had to be sold and everyone started buying everything. The value system became somewhat of a hoarding one with you being better positioned in a society based on how many things you have.
When it comes to labor, the mass manufacturing led to longer work hours and to new developments. People in unions started fighting for their rights like higher paychecks or better working conditions. Manufacturing was often dangerous because the factories were not as safe, so new legislature had to be implemented so as to keep the workers satisfied.
This sounds like chronological order, which arranges events in the order that they occurred in.
Hammurabi was the 6th Babylonian King in 18th
century BC while Confucius was a Chinese teacher, philosopher and a prophet who
passed away in 479 BC. They are from different times and cultures but there are
striking similarities between their teachings and writings.
Both of them emphasized on the rule of Law, Hammurabi is a
bit straight forward in citing the punishment for a crime while Confucius being
a philosopher quoted it in his teachings, urging people to abide by the rules
and law and giving such a man the title of “Great Man”. In the second example when Confucius is
stressing on family values and taking care of family, he is being straight
forward while Hammurabi when citing the same subject puts is in another way,
for example if someone son has died due to the negligence of a builder, the builder’s
son will be killed. That shows he is stressing on family values also.
And the final and most amazing similarity is the stressing
on Truth, both Hammurabi and Conscious seem uncompromising on this subject.
It may be D) all of the above because i know C V raman and mother teresa got both those awards but i dont know who rabindranath is.
