Answer: C.) Buying goods from another country.
Explanation: Importing goods simply means buying goods from another country, the process is called importation. The country which buys the goods is importing, while the country which sells the goods is involved in a process called exportation. The goods being purchased into a country from another country are called imported goods while the goods being sold to another country are called exported products.
For instance, if country A buys goods from country B, then country A is importing goods from country B, and thus country A is involved in the process of importation, while the selling party, country B is exporting its product or goods to country A.
A Republican is typically a person who believes in self reliance, enforcement of “the rules”, and “what is mine, is mine, not yours”. These are common “conservative” values. Republicans are typically found in rural areas, the military, police, and places where wealthy people are found.
A Democrat is a person who typically believes, “I am my brother’s keeper”, “we’re all in this together”, and “I win when you win”. These are typical liberal values. Democrates are typically found in urban areas and professions that help people such as teachers, nurses, and social work. Because they are “givers”, they are not usually wealthy, althought some wealthy people who recall being poor, early in their lives, are Democrats.
During the time of the Civil War, Republicans were the progressive, liberal political party in favor of freeing slaves and promoting human rights. Over time the polarity of Democrates and Republicans slowly changed. Civil Right Act of 1964 finalized the shift when southeastern states who had been mostly poor and Democrat, became solidly Republican in protest to this legislation.
Another political polarity shift is taking place today as more minorities populate the Southern United States. Texas is predicted to be a liberal (a.k.a. “blue”) state in the next 10 years.
Social stratification is defined directly as the sociological process of dividing a society into social strata, or levels, depending on various characteristics: economic level, professional occupation, income, place of residence, birth origin and access to wealth or lack of it. These characteristics may define the place a person may have within his/ her society and his/her access to influence, social mobility, social acceptance and social status. Some countries allow for social mobility between the stratas, but mostly, even in the most westernized and democratic nations, social mobility may be very difficult, especially when it comes to acceptance. The correct answer here then is A: A division of society into layers.
