Answer: Ethnocentrism is the evaluation of many cultures according to the preconceptions in the standards of an individual's culture. It's very effective in one's cultural identity, because it helps them to understand their cultural roots. It even processes the standard of their culture. Weither it be their language, behavior, religeon and other customs. It's the uniqueness of an individual to describe their ethnicity cultural value no matter how peculiar we all think it may be. Even though ethoncentrism helps a person to accept their cultural values. There is a negative side that may or may not turn the person into a determinative person to other cultures. I'm not saying that it turns everyone this way though. It is simply the socially scientific view this nature. Ethoncentrism helps the person to identify who they really are, and personally it is helpful for them to know themself and their ancestors through cultural events.

Consider all of the information provided about the author, Ibn al-Athir. Do you think this author is biased? Why or why not?
icang [17]

It is not sure if Ibn al-Athir was of Arab or Curdish ethnicity, but it is agreed that he was one of the main writers and biographers of the Crusades Era, and one of the Great Historians of the Muslim World.

He was born in the Great Seljuq Empire, modern Turkey, and experienced all the wars and chaos brought by Franks in the Crusades, living in Mosul, Baghdad and Damascus, even travelling with Saladin through for a period.

So, despite for being one of the only authors of its time to show respect and admiration for some of the Frank´s qualities, his main work "The Complete History" (Al-Kamil fi al-Tarikh"), that aims at telling his history of the world, has obvious bias in favour of the Muslim cause.

Which can be observed in his accounts of the death of the Christian ruler of Tyre, in a way that could not be written by modern historians:

"In this year, on 13 rabi II, the Frankish Marquis, the ruler of Tyre-- God [email protected] him!-- was killed. He was the greatest devil of all the Franks."

dexar [7]

Answer:  b. King George III

Details:

Jefferson provided a list of "facts to be submitted to a candid world" to demonstrate that the British king, George III, had been seeking to establish "an absolute Tyranny over these States" (the colonial states which were declaring their independence).  

Jefferson's list included items such as:

  • The king refused to assent to laws that were wholesome and necessary for the public good.
  • The king had forbidden colonial governors to enact laws or implement laws without his assent (which, as the prior point noted, he was in no hurry to give).
  • The king forced people to give up their rights to legislative assembly or forced legislative bodies to meet in difficult places that imposed hardships on them.
  • The king dissolved legislative assemblies and then refused for a long time to have other assemblies elected.
  • The king obstructed justice in the colonies and made judges dependent on his will alone for their salaries and their tenure in office.
  • The king kept standing armies in place in the colonies in peacetime, without the consent of the colonial legislatures.
  • The king imposed taxes without the colonists' consent.

These and additional items listed in the Declaration were meant to support the colonies' position that tyranny was standard operating procedure by the British monarchy, and therefore revolution was justified.
