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.

Answer:

2. Two prominent thinkers, one directly and one indirectly, played a pivotal role in the founding of the United States. These men were Thomas Paine and John Locke.

4. This view is supported by the fact that Montesquieu argued that if the executive power is not in the hands of a monarch, but is committed “to a certain number of persons selected from the legislative body, there would be an end then of liberty; by reason the two powers would be united, as the same persons would sometimes possess, and would be always able to possess, a share in both.” This would seem to be a reference to the ministerial system in England, and to the view that if the monarch were no longer head of the executive, or perhaps became a mere figurehead, with real power in the hands of his ministers, then the concentration of power would be a genuine danger.

5. Federalism is the system of government in which power is divided between a central government and regional governments; in the United States, both the national government and the state governments possess a large measure of sovereignty.

7. Under constitution-federal government gained broad powers to tax, regulate trade, control the currency, raise an army, and declare war.

8. States must take responsibility for areas such as: ownership of property. education of inhabitants. implementation of welfare and other benefits programs and distribution of aid.

What can you say about Communist expansion between 1920 and 1950?
kherson [118]

Answer:

Between 1920 and until the early 1940s, the only communist country was the Soviet Union, where the first communist revolution, led by Vladimir Lenin, was successful in 1917.

From the early 1940s onward, communism began to expand rapidly to many areas in the world. For example, after the end of World War II, the Soviet Union expanded communism in Eastern European Countries like Poland, Hungary, and Romania, where it installed puppet governments.

In 1949, another important country became comunist: China. Led by Mao Zedong, the Chinese communists won the civil war against the Chinese nationalists (the Kuomintang, who later fled to Taiwan). In the same year, the Chinese People's Republic was proclaimed.
