union busting
"As soon as men and women began to organize themselves into unions, the employers were quick and cruel to act against them"
Answer:
1. Here are a few key figures:
- Galileo
- Copernicus
- Kepler
- Diderot
- Voltaire
- Rousseau
- Locke
- Montesquieu
- Descartes
- Bacon
**These are the main ones, but there are more**
2. Ideas:
- The Heliocentric Theory, the sun is the center of the universe, craters on the moon, and other observation made the Catholic Church angry at the discoverers because it violated their beliefs and their god did not make imperfections
- Using knowledge over emotion or beliefs led to a large spike of change, many still practicing Christianity but being more reasonable with their beliefs.
- New beliefs about government led to controversy across Europe and less respect for overbearing authority. This also laid the foundation for America's and other countries' laws.
3. Mentality
Yes, I believe this mentality is still in place, especially since everyone wants individual freedoms. The discoveries about space are still taught today.
John Locke was influential to the Enlightenment as he thought beyond the norm of ideas and influenced classical Liberalism. Hope this helps! :)
