The Cultural Revolution ended by the early 1970s. In which two ways did it cause devastation in China?
lara31 [8.8K]

The correct choices for devastation caused by the Cultural Revolution:

Ancient cultural artifacts and historical buildings were destroyed.  

The education of millions of youth in China was interrupted.

Mao Zedong began the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution (its official name) in 1966.  A big part of the program was the closing of China's schools, because Mao saw the majority of educators as bourgeois types who were failing to support the communist revolution.  The Cultural Revolution was an insistence on loyalty to communist party ideology.  

The Red Guard was formed, which was made up of high school and college students (no longer attending school, since schools were shut down).  These radicalized students became militants for Mao over against those whom he considered not revolutionary enough.  The Red Guard destroyed historical artifacts and writings of the of China's former culture.  They also attacked persons who were seen to be resisting Chariman Mao's permanent revolution.

The Little Red Book<em> </em>(as it was called) of <em>Quotations from Chairman Mao </em>was originally published in 1964, prior to the launch of the Cultural Revolution. And the Little Red Book didn't produce devastation.  Similarly, posters of Mao plastered everywhere didn't cause devastation.  It was the attack on education and antiquities pursued by the Cultural Revolution that devastated China's historical heritage and intellectual depth.

Which most effectively describes how changing from a hunter-gatherer Society to an agricultural society affected early human dev
natulia [17]
I believed the answer is 4. It makes sense because, after the agricultural revolution, people switched from hunting and gathering to crops and needed necessary tools to do that. Number 1 doesn't really make sense because in the Classical Era, they created religions early, so it's not it. B doesn't really make sense and 3 is wrong because they still used animals.

Bas_tet [7]
Rosie the River was the one who was used during the World War 2 to place advertisements, which encouraged women to come out and contribute their quotas to the ongoing war. She was the center of the campaigns which were targeted at getting women to join the workforce during the war in order to fill gaps that were left by men who are at the war front.She was a standard image of a working woman.

Identify three documents on the timeline that are examples of social contract
Serggg [28]
So a social contract is where a "persons' moral and/or political obligations are dependent upon a contract or agreement among them to form the society in which they live".
Rousseau was most famous for coming up with the term but examples have always existed and exist right now.

An example of how a social contract works would be the legal system. For augments sake, if I say you stole all my money and you deny it, instead of fighting it out with fists or me raiding your house to find it with a gun, we both put our faith in the legal system which we both agree will be more impartial, and get to the truth. I surrender my right to take matters into my own hands on the condition that you will also do the same. Why did we do this? Because there are more benefits than not having this system in place. I may not be able to get personal revenge on you for stealing my money but I also am protected from people doing the same to me. People who are born in a state metaphorically "sign" the contract when they are born in order to live in the state.

A primitive example if you want would be that two people meet in the woods looking for berries. Both have guns and are distrustful of the other. They are constantly looking over their shoulders at each other out of fear which prevents them from going about their berry gathering. Eventually they both agree to a "contract" that they will both give up their guns at the same time. They do this because whilst you do not want to give up your gun, it means that you don't have to worry about getting shot in the back so times are more productive.
The theory is the same even if people disagree on why social contracts exist. Folk like Rousseau thought that social contracts arose because at the end of the day, humans are more interested in personal liberty and life and wish to avoid conflict as much as possible. More pessimistic people like Hobbes thought it was because humans are so naturally warlike that we needed social contracts to prevent our own violent natures.
