How did Phyllis Schlafly and her supporters invoke the principle of freedom in the battle over the ERA?

History

IrinaK [193]3 years ago
8 0
When feminist groups in the 1960s and 1970s pushed for Congress to propose the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), conservatives such as Phyllis Schlafly opposed it as something that would harm women rather than help them, that would infringe on their rights and freedoms rather than grant them greater freedom.   The ERA stated that "equality of rights under the law shall not be abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."  A key point Schlafly focused on was that this would force women to be subject to military draft and military combat service in the same way as men.  This became the key issue regarding the defeat of the Equal Rights Amendment.  House of Representatives gave its approval to the ERA in 1970; the Senate did so in 1972.   But the amendment failed to achieve ratification by the states, due to the influence of the movement led by Schlafly.

Taya2010 [7]

The question which both John Maynard Keynes and Karl Marx would agree most about would be D. Do free-market economies create problems for workers?

<h3>What is a Free Market?</h3>

This refers to the economic system where there is limited government interference and price is determined by private businesses.

Hence, we can see that based on the economic views of both Keyes and Marx, they both questioned capitalist production and they would likely ask the question in option D because it would show how efficient it is for workers.

What effect did the dawes plan have on the economy of postwar germany?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
The Dawes Plan provided short term economic benefits to the German economy. It softened the burdens of war reparations, stabilized the currency, and brought increased foreign investments and loans to the German market. However, it made the German economy dependent on foreign markets and economies, and therefore problems with the U.S. economy (e.g. the Great Depression) would later severely hurt Germany as it did the rest of the western world, which was subject to debt repayments for loans of American dollars. 

<span>After World War I, this cycle of money from U.S. loans to Germany, which then made reparations to other European nations, which then used the money to pay off their debts to America, locked the western world's economy on that of the U.S. </span>

<span>Charles G. Dawes was the co-recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1925, in recognition of his work on the Dawes Plan. </span>
