Briefly describe what Marks says in the beginning of his talk about conflict and compromise. Provide one example that Marks give

Kryger [21]

Marks explains that we have been made to believe that conflict is bad and compromise is good. He describes this as a vision that is too simplistic to be upheld by the nations of the world. Marks says it will be difficult to determine whether conflict is good or bad if we do not understand the people involved in the conflict, the cause and the strategy involved in the conflict.

He said compromise, contrary to general belief, can be harmful if it does not protect the vulnerable and the dis-empowered.

Marks gave an example of a United Nations agency that collaborated with the federal and local governments, television company, and even a multinational soda company in order to address the problem of poor sanitation in schools in India. This arrangement helped the corporation to promote their brands and products. Marks argued that, the United Nations were creating another problem while trying to solve one by promoting a soda company, knowing fully well that a large consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages increases the risk of obesity.

The mistake governments make, according to Marks, when they collaborate with industries is that they conflate the common good with common ground. They sacrifice the interest of the people on the alter of industrial collaboration.

By saying that governments should struggle or engage in conflicts with corporations, Marks means that the corporations always act to promote their commercial interests while government is saddled with the responsibility of promoting the common good, they should not leave this responsibility while trying to go into relationship with the corporations.

What factors contributed to the rise of nationalism in the 1810s?

Lerok [7]

Answer:

The French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars unleashed a wave of modernist, liberal, nationalist sentiment throughout Europe.

Explanation:

Before Napoleon and the French Revolution, many Europeans lived in states that did not reflect their ethnic boundaries. There was no German state, nor was there an Italian or Polish state. The Habsburg Empire contained Austrians, Hungarians, Poles, Czechs, Italians, Croats, Slovenes, and others. Italians were scattered across a collection of states, some large, such as Venice, Savoy, the Two Sicilies, and the Papal States, others smaller. There were hundreds of small German principalities, along with larger states such as Prussia, Hanover, Saxony, Baden, Hesse, Bavaria and Wurttemberg.

Napoleon re-organized borders around, in part along ethnic lines. By doing so, he acknowledged the rights of people to, if not rule themselves, be considered a Nation as such.

Despite being ultimately defeated, his actions in Europe ultimately (among other things of course) led to the contemporary Europe we know today.
