Answer:

Jacob Riis

Explanation:

Jacob Riis writes the famous book <em>How the Other Half Lives. </em>In this book, Riis exposes the living conditions in tenements within New York City where many immigrant factory workers live. By using pictures, Riis exposes how these individuals live in awful conditions. These pictures showed the community bathrooms that people had to share, kids sleeping in stairwells because the apartment they lived in were so warm and had no window or ventilation. This would help to bring reform to the housing industry within major cities.

What are the four causes of the industrial revolution?
storchak [24]
First of all, Britain was the first to industrialize. Let that be known. But other than that, they industrialized because after the discovery of raw cotton in India, their output of cotton clothing did not match what the market wanted. So there was a race to see who could basically make cotton the fastest. Other than this, science of the enlightenment improved other aspects of city life and attracted more rural subjects to the cities.

How did judaism affect existing laws
shtirl [24]
If anything Christianity affected Judaism, because the Jewish religion was around along time before the Christian religion, therefore Christianity affected Judaism negatively because more people converted to Christianity!

Answer 2

While Answer 1 may be correct in terms of the general direction of conversions, both forced and by choice, in terms of philosophy, literature, and general ideology, Christianity is fundamentally an outgrowth of Judaism. Before Christology developed as a Christian Discipline, the Jewish ideas of the Messiah, Redemption, and the End of Days helped to develop similar doctrines in Christianity. Christianity also carried forward the Jewish concept on Monotheism. Judaism also provided a backdrop for early Christians of the "unredeemed" and "pitiable" allowing them to claim a natural ascendancy and "betterness". This sense of superiority allowed Christian conquerors to knowingly subjugate America without regard for the indigenous cultures that they would displace and/or eradicate. Finally, the Bible used in Christianity is over 75% the same as that used in Judaism.
