Answer:

Reasons for irrational behaviour : Political brand name establishment in favour of candidate, enhancing brand loyalty towards.

More knowledgable public : Would value candidate working on  real development, rather than mere brand name.

Explanation:

Political elections are determined by the public's impressions of the candidates rather than the candidates' views on the issues.

Reason(s) of such irrational voting behaviour could be : The candidate having established a personal brand image of himself/ herself, specially in a particular community group. This makes the people of the community being 'brand loyal' towards their candidate, irrespective of his or her ideologies. It is also possible to make that political personality (candidate) an important part of 'national image' or 'community leader image', which reinforce support for the candidate, irrespective of person perception and attitudes.

If public were more knowledgeable about factors that affect person perception and attitudes : The political support would not be based on lineaged political brand names. It would rather be earned on the basis of candidate's performance for socio - economic, political upliftment. This would give power in the hands of deserving politicians & create a message that 'real work' & not just 'name' is needed to gain political success

This group of explorers were seeking "gold, god and glory?
nekit [7.7K]
Historians use a standard shorthand, “Gold, God, and Glory,” to describe the motives generating the overseas exploration, expansion, and conquests that allowed various European countries to rise to world power between 1400 and 1750. “Gold” refers to the search for material gain through acquiring and selling Asian spices, African slaves, American metals, and other resources. As merchants gained influence in late-medieval western Europe, they convinced their governments to establish a direct connection to the lucrative Asian trade, leading to the first European voyages of discovery in the 1400s. “God” refers to the militant crusading and missionary traditions of Christianity, characterized in part by rivalry with Islam and hatred of non-Christian religions. “Glory” alludes to the competition between monarchies. Some kings sought to establish their claims to newly contacted territories so as to strengthen their position in European politics and increase their power at the expense of the landowning nobility. They also embraced the ideology of mercantilism, which held that governments and large private companies should cooperate to increase the state’s wealth by increasing the reserves of precious metals. Motivated by these three aims, several western European peoples gained control or influence over widening segments of the globe during the Early Modern Era. By 1914 Europeans dominated much of the world politically and economically. Hope this helps!

According to the texts, what are the negative effects of neoliberal education policies that focus solely on academic excellence
AfilCa [17]

Neoliberalism is a political theory that left negative consequences on education because it turned it into a competition among students.

Neoliberalism is a term to refer to the political and economic theory that proposes that the State should minimize the economic issues of a country.

Therefore, neoliberalism supports economic freedom and the free market whose basic pillars are

  • Privatization
  • Deregulation

Neoliberal education then is the education in which ideas related to neoliberalism are imparted to students. Due to the above, the idea that school is a competition spread and its main purpose is to see who is the best. This has caused students to become unconcerned about their learning and focus on getting good grades without actually learning.

Note: This question is incomplete because the text is missing. However, I can answer it based on my general prior knowledge.

Dr Berry is studying development in the mesosystem level of environmental influence.

<h3>What is a mesosystem?</h3>

The interactions between two or more environments in which the developing person actively participates make up a mesosystem. Because of the time and effort required to satisfy the needs of one environment, such as the workplace, a person might not be able to fulfil the standards of another environment.

Mesosystem: The processes and connections that occur between or among two or more environments where children interact to make up the mesosystem (e.g., family-school, peers-family, neighbourhood-peers).

In the mesosystem, a person's various microsystems interact with one another and exert influence over one another rather than operating independently. For instance, the interaction between a child's parents and teachers may affect the development of the youngster.
