History

Answer:

He wanted to make concessions with the South

Explanation:

Buchanan was elected in an era that demanded strong executive leadership, but despite his political and diplomatic experience, he was ill equipped for the task. Buchanan failed as presi­dent not because he was weak, indecisive or in over his head, as he has been portrayed, but because he stubbornly adhered to a narrow, antiquated political philosophy that was out of touch with American society in the 1850s. He longed for the Jackson years of decades past, when Democrats North and South were unified, the anti-slavery movement was despised and sectional issues were settled by concessions to the South. He failed to comprehend the economic and cultural changes occurring in Northern society, didn’t understand the growing moral repugnance to slavery in the North nor the difference between those who wanted to prevent its spread and those who wanted to abolish it.

Answer:

exile (political migration)

scientists

Explanation:

The greatest migration from skilled scientists and artists, as well as writers, came in 1933 when Nazis came to power and occurred until 1945 when the freedom to relocate was hindered.

A wave of German scientists migrated in bordering or European countries, for seeking freedom mainly in the political realm. And fearing that the Nazi regime would continue to establish as a totalitarian state, they began to criticize the regime clandestinely in the countries they settled.

Many were to Czechoslovakia, France, Switzerland and the Netherlands, because going to the US initially was seen as a more compromised way of no return.

However when the situation worsened in Europe most migration of political refugees came to the US, where a huge cultural transfer took place

The well-known example of Einstein :

In 1933, Einstein was visiting the United States, Adolf Hitler rose to power. Having a Jewish background, Einstein never went back to Germany. He settled in the United States and became an American citizen in 1940.
