4 0

Answer:

Because it showed that he was introduced as a child to the violent situations to which slaves were subjected.

Explanation:

At the beginning of his autobiography, Frederick Douglass relates the traumatic experience he had as a child, involving his aunt and his "master". He describes that his aunt, after disobeying the orders of the owner of the property, was tied up and beaten inhumanly until the owner of the property was tired.

Douglass claims he visualized the blood dripping from his aunt's back, while she screamed and agonized at constant lashes. He had never witnessed a situation like this and it scared him deeply.

Answer:

................

Explanation:

The Land Ordinance of 1785 was adopted by the United States Congress of the Confederation on May 20, 1785. It set up a standardized system whereby settlers could purchase title to farmland in the undeveloped west. Congress at the time did not have the power to raise revenue by direct taxation, so land sales provided an important revenue stream. The Ordinance set up a survey system that eventually covered over 3/4 of the area of the continental United States.

The earlier Ordinance of 1784 was a resolution written by Thomas Jefferson calling for Congress to take action. The land west of the Appalachian Mountains, north of the Ohio River, and east of the Mississippi River was to be divided into ten separate states. However, the 1784 resolution did not define the mechanism by which the land would become states, or how the territories would be governed or settled before they became states. The Ordinance of 1785 put the 1784 resolution in operation by providing a mechanism for selling and settling the land, while the Northwest Ordinance of 1787 addressed political needs.

In an opinion piece (Free Markets Avoid "Tragedy of the Commons"), dated September 7, 2014, from the Columbia Daily Tribune out
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Hardin's explanation of the "tragedy of the commons" shows us several strategies that could be avoided to avoid, as it were, an overexploitation of natural resources and, as a consequence, a great universal tragedy.

Explanation:

The limitation of the human family is proposed as the main strategy, since according to Hardin the population density causes the limit of the use given to natural resources to be passed, since the greater the population, the more exploitation of natural resources, but I consider that It is not really an easy strategy to implement since the laws favor the freedom to decide how many children a partner should have and highlight the family as the basis of society, granting them the legitimate right to use the resources that are in your environment.

The main strategy I consider, is to raise awareness from our homes, to our children, about how important it is to take care and make a balanced use of human resources, teach them ways to recycle, teach them not to waste food and to love and value our nature and the resources that are at our disposal.
