b. European nations tend to use the precautionary principle, whereas the United States follows the innocent-until-proven-guilty approach.
Explanation:
The precautionary principle used by European nations consists of protecting the community from possible harms that can be released for example in the development and release of new drugs or treatments. The principle states that the most important is to offer benefits to the community with the different scientific advances that may contribute to solve different kinds of problems, however in some cases, it is necessary first to analyze the possible risks to make decisions based on the facts.
On the other hand, the innocent-until-proven-guilty approach applied by The United States, consists of proving in a really cautious way the products before being released to the market, the approach states that the responsibility of the products or scientific development relies on the fact that it is innocent until proven guilty.

Explanation:
Weber was well known to broaden and narrow the rationale of capitalism. He viewed all forms of money-making whether it was through trade or exchange tended to represent capitalist action. On the other hand, he narrows the definition, considering it as a peaceful free exchange, therefore if there is an acquisition by force, it is not capitalism.
For him, rationality was in using balances, and also the development of a well versed monetary system, with a well-defined measurement in money.

Answer:
1.The closing of the Suez Canal by Egypt in 1956.
2.The OPEC oil embargo in 1973.
Explanation:
Most of the world's oil reserves and supply come from the Middle East. It is estimated that about 64.5 % of the world's oil supply is from the Middle East nations, making it an important aspect of the world's crude oil supply.
If these reserves or supplies were to be stopped or banned by the OPEC nations, or any of these majority supplying nations were to stop their export, then there will be a vast 'disaster' or rather 'crisis' in the nations that depend on these supplies. So, events such as the 1956 closing of the Suez Canal by Egypt or the OPEC oil embargo of 1973 are proof that the Middle East nations could threaten the world's oil supply.
