In a direct democracy, the people vote directly on government policy. They equally have a say on other policy initiatives, such as forming consensus, passing executive decisions, the use of sortition, making laws, directly electing or dismissing officials and conducting trials. It is important to note that this is different than representative democracy where someone represents the person voting.

Describe the weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation. Why had the Articles been written that way? How did these weaknesses a
xenn [34]

The Articles of Confederation was the United States' first constitution. It was known for being very weak and giving little to no power to the federal government.

The Articles of Confederation was ratified in 1781 and was the first constitution for the United States. It was written to be very weak, as this was written soon after the American Revolution and many Americans were scared of power being abused, like with what happened with Great Britain. With the Articles, the government could not tax the states directly, create and enforce laws properly, draft soldiers, regulate trade, amend the Articles without the approval of all of the states, and other important matters that needed to be handled.

The Anti-Federalists approved of the Articles of Confederation, they associated the government having power with British tyranny and wanted to keep the power to the people. On the other hand, the Federalists wanted to change the Articles of Confederation and felt as if it was doing more harm than good, they wanted to have a stronger government.

Eventually, the Constitutional Convention of 1787 was called to amend the Articles of Confederation. Many people were realizing how it was harming the United States and the Federalists became a big impact on changing it. Instead of changing it though, it ended up getting scrapped completely. They replaced the Articles of Confederation and made the United States Constitution instead, which granted power to the federal government.

The weaknesses affected many future policies of the United States. Thanks to the Anti-Federalists and their concerns about the government abusing power, along with the weaknesses of the Articles, there are many policies and regulations for the United States government. Policies also exist to protect citizen's rights and making sure they have power as well. Many of this has to do with the Bill of Rights, which protects the citizen's rights and was pushed for by the Anti-Federalists.

kolbaska11 [484]

<span>hostility toward immigrants is t</span>he fear and prejudice many felt toward Germans and Communists during and after World War I expanded to include all immigrants. This triggered a general rise in racism and nativism. During World War I, immigration to the United States had dropped sharply, but by 1921, it had returned to prewar levels. Many Americans blamed the bombings, strikes, and recession of the postwar years on immigrants. Many believed immigrants were taking jobs that would otherwise have gone to soldiers returning home from the war.
