Does technology and the ability to contact and organize people quickly through social networking help to make our "extended repu

blic" a little less extended?

Vesna [10]3 years ago

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

First, let's remember what James Madison considered about "extended Republic" in the United States. The place in which the political community of the country was the formation of different and smaller communities that could be against traditional approaches to do things and maintain proper life.

So no. Today, technology and the ability to contact and organize people quickly through social networking have created a very connected community -national and international- able to communicate with each other instantly and form groups that support many political and social postures, which, by the way, exert some kind of pressure to the political status quo.

Social media had given an open voice to people that before had none. When correctly organized people have the ability to influence public opinion and oppose those decisions or legislation that they considered unjust.

So again, no, technology and the ability to contact and organize people quickly through social networking help to make our "extended republic" a little less extended. On the contrary, differences are increasing and people are making their voices heard.

wolverine [178]

Answer: a. created the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).

Explanation:

Even though former President Nixon was a proponent of reducing the powers of the Federal government, he recognized the need for certain federal government agencies at a time when economic growth had led to increased pollution and maltreatment of employees.

Agencies such as the EPA, OSHA and the NTSB were established after their respective bills went through Congress to ensure the protection of the environment and workers thereby making Nixon's administration one of the most eco-friendly ones there was.

Most Honorable Delegates,
nlexa [21]

Answer:

The Articles of Confederation, the United States' first constitution, was written during a time when the American people feared strong national governments. The new nation needed some kind of organization to hold states together to help them fend off future attacks and hopefully make a stronger economy, and the Articles of Confederation seemed like the best answer to build unity at the time.

The English government had been especially abusive to the Colonists, who were very reluctant to install a new government that could potentially function similar to the monarchy under King George. The loyalty of the people seemed to align more with the individual states than with the nation. After the American Revolution, states were still printing their own money, which was worthless in other states and further hindered cooperation. The 13 new states needed to find common ground and a way to cooperate.

During the American Revolution, many states wrote their own state constitutions. These constitutions consisted of political ideas that provided equality and freedom. States particularly relished the three branches of government and the idea of a republic, where citizens elect political officials. However, when the states came together to complete the first constitution, the nation was formed as a confederation, where states were sovereign, while trying to work together.
