I believe that statement is false.
Affirmative actions indeed aimed to fix the problem that caused by discrimination.
But it was imposed to all institute regardless there's any prove of intentional discrimination or not,  in order to fix the damage that experienced by racial minorities during the segregation.<span />

According to Marx, the bourgeoisie and the proletariat are: a) the product of gender differentiation in Europe's tribal past. b)
Leni [432]

Answer:

Distinct and opposed classes in the capitalist economy

Explanation:

The bourgeoisie represents the owners of the land and the factories, while the proletariat is formed by the workers employed by the bourgeoisie.

According to Karl Marx both classes have different interests, while the bourgeoisie wants to have higher profits with as lower salaries as possible, the proletariat has to struggle for their rights to revert this.

It is important to mention that Marx lived during the 19th century, a time when worker´s rights were very far from what they are today.

how might Hammurabis code have prevented a single ruler from imposing or forcing his or her will on people?
faltersainse [42]

Answer

The Code of Hammurabi were enacted in Babylonia circa 1792 to 1750 B.C.E. It is one of the most ancient legal codes written in human history. All Babylonian citizens ought to abide to this set of rules, including the king. Therefore, it limited the king's power and prevented him to impose his will, it was against the law.

Explanation

The Code of Hammurabi is was King Hammurabi’s attempt to set a clear set of rules to all people living in a complex, large and ever-growing empire. The code intended to establish clear rules that govern people behaviour, what was considered unlawful and the punishment a citizen would expect when breaking the law. For instance, it forbidden slander, perjury, fraud, theft and adultery. It also created a legal framework for trade, slavery, divorce, liability and the relationship between workers and landowners.

The code was not necessarily fair. It was especially harsh on lower classes and women, making the laws unequal. For instance, the punishments received by higher classes when they had a dispute were far lenient than the ones imposed on lower classes.

However, and in spite this unfairness, the code limited the capacity of a single ruler to impose his/her own will over other people. The clear set of rules prevented the king from using subjective appraisals to judge singular cases. All people would measure with the same rules, and these could not change from situation to situation.
