kupik [55]

To begin, the White Man's Burden was written in 1899 by Kipling while the Black Man's Burden was written in 1920 by Morel. In the White Man's Burden, the author justifies imperialism mentioning that Europeans ruling over underdeveloped nations is their responsibility. In the other hand, the author of the Black Man's Burden believes that the justifications mentioned in White Man's Burden are nothing but a lie. He believed that the colonization of these underdeveloped nations was only for the Europeans to gain access to their natural resources and take advantage of them. The author mentions all of the different ways in which colonialism damaged the people of these nations.

Why were the 1970s a period of discomfort for many Americans?

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The 1970s were a period of discomfort for many Americans because of stagflation and unemployment.

Explanation:

As a consequence of the 1973 oil crisis, it emerged as Arab revenge for American and Western support for Israel in the Yom Kippur War.

Through a cessation of production and supply, OPEC generated an exponential rise in the price of oil, the main raw material on which the western economies, mainly the United States, were based. With the rise in oil prices, the remaining prices of raw materials rose, due to the increase in transportation costs. This generated inflation, which in turn caused many companies, due to high costs, to cut wages, generating in turn a situation of economic stagnation at the social level. In other words, the population began to earn less money and spend more to buy the same products. This process, called stagflation (stagnation and inflation).
