History
1 answer:
vovangra [49]4 years ago
3 0
There can be many people who are living examples of opposers of slavery, the majority of the north wanted to be rid of it. But I see that this is a middle school history question so I presume your answer would be Abraham Lincoln, 16th president of the United States of America, and was president during the civil war.

The words about persecution and their best definitions are:

  • Partisan - a person who takes part in an organized fighting group.
  • Genocide - the deliberate act of killing a group of people because of their race.
  • Persecution - the act of mistreating others due to their characteristics or beliefs.
  • Initiate - to begin or start.
  • Liberation - the act of being set free.

<h3>What are some words related to persecution?</h3>

Persecution refers to when a person is mistreated due to their beliefs or race. Sometimes this can lead to genocide where people are killed because of their race.

Those who resist and join partisan groups will fight against the persecutors when they initiate rebellion. If they are set free from their persecution they would be said to have been liberated.

How did Thomas Hobbes’s interpretation of the social contract differ from John Locke’s?
user100 [1]

Answer:

  • Hobbes' interpretation of the social contract believed human beings were inherently at odds with each other and therefore needed an authoritarian government to rule over them.
  • Lockes' interpretation of the social contract believed that human beings are morally neutral by nature, and can live side by side without a government -- but that creating a government makes society better.

Explanation:

Both English philosophers, Hobbes and Locke, believed there is a "social contract" -- that governments are formed by the will of the people.  But their theories on why people want to live under governments were very different.

Thomas Hobbes published his political theory in <em>Leviathan</em> in 1651, following the chaos and destruction of the English Civil War.  He saw human beings as naturally suspicious of one another, in competition with each other, and harmful toward one another as a result.  Forming a government meant giving up personal liberty, but gaining security against what would otherwise be a situation of every person at war with every other person.

John Locke published his <em>Two Treatises on Civil Government</em> in 1690, following the mostly peaceful transition of government power that was the Glorious Revolution in England.  Locke believed people are born as blank slates--with no preexisting knowledge or moral leanings.  Experience then guides them to the knowledge and the best form of life, and they choose to form governments to make life and society better.

In teaching about Hobbes and Locke, I've often described the difference between them in this way.  If society were playground basketball, Hobbes believed you must have a referee who sets and enforces rules, or else the players will eventually get into heated arguments and bloody fights with one another, because people get nasty in competition that way.   Locke believed you could have an enjoyable game of playground basketball without a referee, but a referee makes the game better because then any disputes that come up between players have a fair way of being resolved.    Of course, Hobbes and Locke never actually wrote about basketball -- a game not invented until 1891 in America by James Naismith.  But it's just an illustration I've used to try to show the difference of ideas between Hobbes and Locke.   :-)
