What accounts for the success of absolutism in some parts of Europe and its failure

History
1 answer:
Ghella [55]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

<u>Because even if the Absolutism has similarities and was applied in almost the entire Europe, each country modeled its conceptions to adapt to reality. </u>And this reality could be <u>social, political or religious.</u>

Explanation:

I believe that the better way to understand this point is analyzing the two major countries where the Absolutism was strong: France and England.

  • France was ruled by Louis XIV in the 17th century. He describes himself as "The state is me" (“L'Etat c'est Moi”). This monarch is the main definition of the absolutist ruler. <u>To support his government, Louis XIV follows the idea of Divine Right of Kings which argued that the monarch had divine powers and was elected by God. Thus, his actions and laws were divine and couldn't be disrespected. </u>The question is: why this conception worked in France? <u>Because it was a catholic country, and religious perceptions were followed without question. Plus, Louis XIV had no limits in his powers. I mean, there was no law or political scheme that could limit him.</u>
  • On the contrary, in England, <u>the king was subjected to the Parlament. </u>However, only this restriction was not sufficed to limit his power. The main point is that the British kings <u>followed the idea of a social contract (popularized by the philosopher Thomas Hobbes). </u>This idea attests that <u>a king has duties with its people,</u> and the Parlament was always remembering him about this. So, he couldn't do whatever he wanted.

Read a sentence from the first draft of a document-based essay on the persecution of Jews in Nazi Germany.
Grace [21]

The correct answer is C) a quote of Hitler's announcement, D) the reaction of Jewish business owners, and E) the types of business he boycotted.  

<em>The details that would provide helpful factual support for this sentence are a quote of Hitler's announcement, the reaction of Jewish business owners, and the types of business he boycotted.  </em>

The sentence was: "Hitler announced a boycott of Jewish-owned businesses."

So it would be very important to have a direct quote from Hitler, stating the reason why he made that decision. Another aspect is the type of business the decision affected and how impacted to the Jewish people. Finally, another important aspect would be to know the first impressions and opinions of the affected, in this case, the Jewish people that owned the business, because with this we can know the other side of the story.
