How could Rousseau's concept of "general will" be used to eliminate the rights of the minority?​

History

lesantik [10]2 years ago

Answer:

The idea of the general will is at the heart of Rousseau's philosophy. The general will is not the will of the majority. Rather, it is the will of the political organism that he sees as an entity with a life of its own.

Explanation:

What does it mean? In a nutshell, it's the will of a small group of people - the political organism - who commands the destiny of the others. Understanding deeply, Rousseau believed that the man wanted to live in a community, but the necessity to pursue goods and riches corrupted the man. And then, some people begin to have more than others and to control politics. The idea of the general will is based on this small group of people, who will do whatever it takes to maintain their privileges.

In 2009, the us had a population of about 307 million people. if there were 14 births and 8 deaths per 1000 people, what was the
qaws [65]

Answer:

1,842,000 of net population growth

Explanation:

Since we have 14 births and 8 deaths per 1,000 people, it means that on every 1,000 people we have 6 people more for that year. Considering that the population is 307 million, we need to see how much 1,000's there are in 307 million:

307,000,000 / 1,000 = 307,000

In order to get the total net population growth we need to multiply 307,000 with the growth on every 1,000 people:

307,000 x 6 = 1,842,000

So we get a net population growth of 1,842,000 for that year.
