How Does Ed mund Burke view the responsibilities of an elected official?

History
1 answer:
enot [183]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Edmund Burke spent the bulk of his maturity dealing with political affairs, and his political thought reflects this experience. Indeed, Burke’s emphasis on the importance of tradition and history, along with his questions about the harmful effect of purely theoretical standpoints in politics has led some to dismiss him as unphilosophical. In fact, as we will see, Burke’s writings engages seriously with the great themes of political philosophy, although almost always in the context of particular questions of policy and choice. As a young man, moreover, he wrote an important work on the origin and meaning of beauty.

Burke’s writings have also had an important practical effect. His thoughtful opposition to the extremes of the French Revolution has made his Reflections on the Revolution in France a perennial source for understanding that event. His discussion of political parties in Thoughts on the Cause of the Present Discontents is a basic source for understanding the meaning of modern party government. And his work was one source of the postwar American conservatism that resulted in the election of Ronald Reagan.

Why did peace negotiations break down after the Oslo accords?
Elanso [62]
The Oslo Accords simply did not take into account factors that would influence its interpretation. For example, the Cave of the Patriarchs massacre, in which at least 39 Palestinians were killed by a single Israeli gunman (who was beaten to death once he run out of ammunition), is often blamed for undermining Palestinian trust in the process. Similarly, the expansion of Israeli settlements (although the Oslo agreements, sillily enough, stipulated no such ban) and blockades caused the deterioration of economic conditions, and much frustration for Palestinians. These factors caused a drop in support for the accord and for those who supported it. However, the PA acknowledges that the settlements have actually provided 12,000 temporary jobs to Palestinian construction workers.
And on the Israeli side, the increase in terror attacks and refusal of the insurgency groups such as Hamas to respect the Oslo agreements caused much frustration for Israelis who lost faith in the Accords as well
