Answer:

<u>True</u>

Explanation:

Edwin Sutherland was a sociologist who spend most of his career developing theories of criminal behaviour. He was the first one to study and publish articles about white collar crime.

His work broadened the field of criminology and led to the study of more than just street crime.  He developed the phrase ' White collar crime' in 1939, after studying 15 American Utility companies and 70 major corporations. He was sure that crime wasn't limited to the streets only but the respected and well educated individuals also committed crime.

White collar crime is the crime motivated by financial gain and committees by a person of respectability and high social status, their in  no violence in  such crimes but they are motivated by greed.

extravagant expenditure in feast,festival and other occasions obstructs the development of the society.how ?​
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The redundant expenditure on festivals or feasts can be used for productive purposes like healthcare, infrastructure, education, saving for an emergency, etc.

Explanation:

As we know, the celebration of any festival causes extravagant and improvident expenditure on the unnecessary arrangement of feasts, new clothes, jewelleries, decorations, and much more. This obstructs the development process of society as it prevents people from investing money into productive purposes like healthcare, education, improving the quality of their life, or saving it for future emergencies. If the lavish expenditure on festivals is prevented, the future of our society can be brighter, safer, and more developed.

Which item is an example of a primary source?
DochEvi [55]
Hello,

The answer is option D "<span>a diary entry from an American homemaker in 1933".

Reason:

The answer is option D because the diary of a homemaker from 1933 is the original source of a subject that people can write off of and learn about. A primary source is the original source of a subject for example of homemaking. Its not option A because a magazine summary of the history of voting is not the original version of the history of voting. Its also not option B because a blog entry about how Roosevelt is the most important president is just a opinion. Its also not option C because a book about the civil war that was written by a historian wouldn't be the original source since how he or she gets the information from other sources in order to write the book. 

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!
