Which action would be encouraged under a capitalist system but discouraged under a mercantilist system

History
1 answer:
Whitepunk [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Mercantilism and capitalism differ in many ways so there are many actions that would be interesting for one system and bad to another. The action that  was most notably encouraged by capitalism and discouraged by mercantilism was free trade.

Explanation:

Mercantilism was essential to the establishment of European absolute monarchies. In order to establish their power, these monarchies controlled trade completely in favor of their states. Kings and queens of this time needed money to strengthen their armies and enforce their laws.

This economic system lasted from the 16th to the 18th century and was vital to the accumulation of capital that funded modern imperialism and capitalism.

what are the three basic types of city government and what are one strength an one weakness and size of city most effective
Nataliya [291]
<u>The three main types of city governments are council-mayor (which can come with a strong mayor or with a weak mayor), council-manager, and commission (though very few cities actually have commission forms of government).  Each of these has strengths and weaknesses.The strength of the commission form of government is that it is very democratic and it allows very close attention to be paid to each aspect of city government.  In this form, one commission member is elected to oversee each major aspect of government.  That person can give his or her undivided attention to that aspect of government.  Its weakness, though, is that there is no central authority.In the council-mayor system, the strength is that you have an elected central authority.  This allows one person to be responsible to the people for the whole city government.  The main problem with this system is that you can have a mayor who is elected for his or her political acumen but who is a terrible manager.  Such a person can significantly harm the way the city is run.</u><span><u>In the council-manager system, you take care of this problem.  The manager is a professional who knows how to run a city.  This makes this system efficient.  The problem is that it is less democratic because the manager is not elected by the people.</u></span>

What longterm significance did the 1948 presidential election have for the politics of postwar america
Step2247 [10]

The 1948 United States Presidential Election is considered apart from being one of the biggest electoral upsets in American history, the start of an era of great economic prosperity and growth of the United States as a superpower in the land of politics.  

After winning the election then President elect Harry S. Truman implemented and oversaw various policies in order to contain and stop the influence of communism around the world which culminated in the entry of the United States in the Korean war.

During this time period President Truman also oversaw the approval of NSC 68, a secret statement of foreign policy. Which sought to increase the defense budget and in turn increase the military prowess of the US and weaken the Soviet Union's influence as much as possible.

The results of the 1948 Presidential Elections also influenced the reform of civil rights in the US, more specifically voting rights and fair employment rights, these reforms also had a key role in ending racial segregation in the armed forces.
