"Nonviolence is fine as long as it works," Malcolm X once said. Recently, Columbia University Press published an extraordinary scholarly book that proves how nonviolence works far better as a method for social change than violence. This breakthrough book demonstrates that Gandhi was right, that the method of nonviolent resistance as a way to social change usually leads to a more lasting peace while violence usually fails.

How did this become known as the colfax county war

Brilliant_brown [7]

The Colfax County War was a range war that occurred from 1873 to 1888 between settlers and the new owners of the Maxwell Land Grant in Colfax County, in the U.S. state of New Mexico. The war started when the new landowners tried to remove the local settlers from the land they had just bought. The locals refused to leave, as they had settled much of their livelihood in the grant, which resulted in conflict and violence in 1875.

USMCA.

Quadrupled Trade

Between 1993 and 2019, trade between the three members quadrupled from $290 billion to $1.23 trillion.5 6 That boosted economic growth, profits, and jobs for all three countries.7 It also lowered prices for consumers.

. Lowered Prices

Lower tariffs also reduced import prices. That lessened the risk of inflation and allowed the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates low.

Increased Economic Growth

NAFTA boosted U.S. economic growth by as much as 0.5% a year.18 The sectors that benefited the most were agriculture, automobiles, and services.

Created Jobs

Some sources say that NAFTA exports created 5 million net new U.S. jobs.27 Most of those jobs went to 17 states, but all states saw some increases. U.S. manufacturers added more than 800,000 jobs between 1993 and 1997. Manufacturers exported $487 billion in 2014. It generated $40,000 in export revenue for each factory worker.

Increased Foreign Direct Investment

Since NAFTA was enacted, U.S. foreign direct investment (FDI) in Canada and Mexico has more than tripled to $500.9 billion. In 2017, U.S. investors poured $391.2 billion into Canada and $109.7 billion into Mexico.2524 That boosted profits for U.S. businesses by giving them more opportunities to develop and markets to explore.

Reduced Government Spending

NAFTA allowed firms in member countries to bid on all government contracts.29 That created a level-playing field for all companies within the agreement's borders. It cut government budget deficits by allowing more competition and lower-cost bids.

USMCA

Despite these advantages, the United States, Mexico, and Canada renegotiated NAFTA on Nov. 30, 2018.30 The new deal is called the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement. (USMCA) Mexico ratified the agreement in 2019. The agreement was signed by Donald Trump on Jan. 29, 2020. Canada's Parliament ratified it on Mar. 13, 2020.
