When World War II ended, Europe was totally destroyed and at the same time, the Soviet Union terminated her relationship with the western alliances. In terms, the countries in Western Europe wanted at all cost to stop the proliferation of communism. It was important to Western Europe to begin  the reconstruction of its economy as an efficient tool against communism. They pay special attention to Italy and France, which after the end of WWII had a big number of communist organizations.

Furthermore, The United States was very aware of this situation, and they decided to put billions of dollars into the economics of Western Europe to Guarantee that there will be economic prosperity in the area, hoping that a capitalist system could deter any attempts of communism to expand.  The name of this strategy was called, The Marshal Plan.

Finally, due to this actions, an economic integration was achieved, also helped by the Treaty of Rome in 1956. At the end, Capitalism was firmly established and it contradicted with was happening in Eastern Europe.

"A ruler makes use of the majority and neglects the minority, and so he does not devote himself to virtue but to law."


1.) What is the meaning of this quote?

This quote philosophies the idea that a ruler of high regard will spend more time connecting and pleasing the majority rather than the minority. As because the majority (self explanatory) makes up the most of the population, it seems more logical to spend time catering to them. The statement "so he does not devote himself to virtue but to law" refers to the same idea, that by reacting to the mass, you are going in a direction that is logical.

2.) Who wrote this quote and what were they like?

The author of this quote is Han Fei, a Chinese philosopher who lived from 280 BC to 233 BC. He is often thought of as the greatest representative of Chinese legalism for his eponymous work the Han Feizi. in which he synthesized the methods of his predecessors to consolidate the core Legalist principles. He was a member of the ruling aristocracy.

3.) Which belief system does this quote belong to and why?

Legalism and moral law

4.) Do you agree or disagree with the message of the quote? (Explain your answer)

I agree strongly with the message in this quote, as it portrays a logical outlook on a rulers stance, and gives them the best chance of success (in theory)


I do hope I was able to help ^.^ if you would like me to reword any of it for better understanding I can do so promptly.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. The Arizona Leathernecks is a Motorcycle Club formed in 2000 by exmarines who share a bond forged by a love for their Marine Corps, families, brotherhood, and their love of riding motorcycles. They believe themselves to be the defenders of the constitution and as such honor the ideals of democracy, fairness, faith, and freedom. They believe that these values along with the basic concept of right and wrong are the cornerstones in building Marines and it is these concepts and values that their members are held to, and that serve as the core of their clubs beliefs and By-Laws.

2. Federalists argued that the Constitution did not need a bill of rights, because the people and the states kept any powers not given to the federal government. Anti-Federalists held that a bill of rights was necessary to safeguard individual liberty.

3. Patrick Henry

4. The Bill of Rights consists of 10 amendments that explicitly guarantee certain rights and protections to US citizens by limiting the power of the federal government. The First Amendment prevents the government from interfering with the freedoms of speech, peaceable assembly, and exercise of religion.

5. In July 2005, the Westboro Baptist Church declared its intention to protest at the memorial service of Carrie French in Boise, Idaho. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that hate speech is legally protected free speech under the First Amendment, hence, hate speech is not regulated due to the robust right to free speech found in the American Constitution.

6. Brandeis reasoned that the rights of free speech and assembly are fundamental, yet they are not absolute. Their exercise is subject to restriction when free speech would produce, or is intented to produce, a clear imminent danger of some substantive evil to the society.

7. Gideon was charged with breaking and entering with the intent to commit a misdemeanor, which is a felony under Florida law. At trial, Gideon appeared in court without an attorney. In open court, he asked the judge to appoint counsel for him because he could not afford an attorney. The trial judge denied Gideon’s request because Florida law only permitted appointment of counsel for poor defendants charged with capital offenses.

8. After the Miranda decision, the nation's police departments were required to inform arrested persons or suspects of their rights prior to custodial interrogation. Such information is called a Miranda warning.

9. Jessica Ahlquist an activist and public speaker filed a lawsuit in 2012 against Cranston High School West, where she was a student, to remove a religious prayer from its auditorium.

10. Thomas Jefferson

11. The First Amendment has two provisions concerning religion: the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. The Establishment clause prohibits the government from "establishing" a religion. The Free Exercise Clause protects citizens' right to practice their religion as they please, so long as the practice does not run afoul of a "public morals" or a "compelling" governmental interest.
