If we did not have the protection of Constitutional Rights there would be regional pockets of intolerance where the prevailing majorities would pass laws that violate the rights of the minorities. There would be no balance. It is part of human nature for the powerful to take advantage, and control, of the less powerful in order to further their own desires and self interests. If that were to happen we would descend into a quagmire of hodge-podge laws and we would lose <span>the stability and intelligence of the national framework of equality we now experience. </span>
The Enlightenment, or the Age of Enlightenment, is also known as the Age of Reason.
This was an era where more and more people became aware of themselves, and not of church as their only leader and idol in life. They started thinking for themselves, and philosophy started blooming, which is why this era is also known by its other name.

Answer:
Because Russians were used to high levels of government control.
Explanation:
From the beginning of the Russian state with the tsars, passing through the Russian Revolution in 1917, the days of Lenin and Stalin who came after, Russian people were used to high levels of government control. However, in the 1980s, the Soviet Union (or Russia, if you wish) was facing a terrible economic crisis because of the corruption, inefficiency and internal structure of the Communist Party. Mikail Gorbachev was elected as Chief of the Soviet State, and he began to promote several changes to recover the Soviet Union. What became known as Perestroika and Glasnost, these political reforms represent each one, political and economic opening to the capitalist world. Also, these policies relent government control for the first time in a century and a half, which was strange for many Russians.
