What rights did women have in Rome?

History
1 answer:
docker41 [41]3 years ago
4 0
The most basic legal distinction for Roman women (and men) was free vs. slave.

A Roman woman always belonged to her father's family, even after marriage.

A Roman mother automatically lost her children to their father in the event of divorce.

Roman women could inherit property, have independent wealth, initiate a divorce, and leave a will.

<span>Roman women could not vote, hold office, or have their own names.</span>

What do those who are revolting in The Russian Revolution want? Was it dangerous for those revolting, if so why?
Black_prince [1.1K]
The Russian revolutionaries wanted something more than famine and injustice -- and that's much of what existed in Russia at that time.  They wanted equality for all persons.  That was a big goal of the communist agenda, and the Russian Revolution was a communist endeavor.  They wanted to achieve that equality both in terms of wealth/property and in terms of political status and rights.

Was it dangerous?  Absolutely.  The reign of the tsars had gone on in Russia for centuries, and military victory over the tsar's armies had to be won for the revolution to succeed.  And it was not going to be easy to make the nation better off, even after the revolution.  The people would expect results from the new government.  Those results were going to be hard to achieve.

Over time, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), which was the nation brought about by the Russian Revolution, has to become more and more authoritarian and repressive to keep its agenda going.  And eventually that agenda failed, when about 75 years after the revolution, the USSR's government collapsed.

how did the supreme court define the role of the federal government in Marbury v. Madison (1803) and McCulloch v. Maryland (1819
Artist 52 [7]
In McCulloch v. Maryland (1819) the Supreme Court ruled that Congress had implied powers under the Necessary and Proper Clause of Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution to create the Second Bank of the United States and that the state of Maryland lacked the power to tax the Bank. Arguably Chief Justice John Marshall's finest opinion, McCulloch not only gave Congress broad discretionary power to implement the enumerated powers, but also repudiated, in ringing language, the radical states' rights arguments presented by counsel for Maryland.

At issue in the case was the constitutionality of the act of Congress chartering the Second Bank of the United States (BUS) in 1816. Although the Bank was controlled by private stockholders, it was the depository of federal funds. In addition, it had the authority to issue notes that, along with the notes of states' banks, circulated as legal tender. In return for its privileged position, the Bank agreed to loan the federal government money in lieu of taxes. State banks looked on the BUS as a competitor and resented its privileged position. When state banks began to fail in the depression of 1818, they blamed their troubles on the Bank. One such state was Maryland, which imposed a hefty tax on "any bank not chartered within the state." The Bank of the United States was the only bank not chartered within the state. When the Bank's Baltimore branch refused to pay the tax, Maryland sued James McCulloch, cashier of the branch, for collection of the debt. McCulloch responded that the tax was unconstitutional. A state court ruled for Maryland, and the court of appeals affirmed. McCulloch appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, which reviewed the case in 1819.
