History
1 answer:
Luba_88 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Because they were both racing to be the country with better more advanced weapons.

Explanation:

This is still somewhat going on today, but a prime example would be the Cold War, this war was considered to be a "deadly arms race" because each side was "racing" to develop better nuclear weaponry first, because in theory the country who holds the best weapons is going to be intimidating enough that no other country would mess with them. the US and Soviets were two global powers that were based on different political views (democracy and communism) and so the one with better weapons would be able to spread their views worldwide because the opposing force would be too scared to intervene. It was considered "Deadly" because in the art of nuclear warfare, nobody wins, both sides no matter who strikes first, will be extremely devestated.

Which of these documents inspired the unlieable rights outlined in the declaration of independence
Artist 52 [7]

You didn't list options, but I suspect the answer you're looking for is:

<h2><em>Second Treatise on Civil Government</em>, by John Locke  (1690)</h2>

A strong overall theme of the Declaration of Independence is that people are born with natural rights.  The Declaration uses the term "unalienable rights" as an equivalent for natural rights.  Because  the rights belong to us by nature, we cannot be separated or alienated from those rights.

Thomas Jefferson (writer of the Declaration of Independence) and other American founding fathers got their ideas about natural rights from philosophers of the Enlightenment, such as John Locke (1632-1704).  Locke strongly argued that all human beings have certain natural rights which are to be protected and preserved.    Locke's ideal was one that promoted individual freedom and equal rights and opportunity for all.  Each individual's well-being (life, health, liberty, possessions) should be served by the way government and society are arranged.   The American founding fathers accepted the views of Locke and other Enlightenment thinkers and acted on them.

John Locke, in his<em> Second Treatise on Civil Government</em> (1690), expressed these ideas as follows.  Notice similarities to what is said in the Declaration of Independence (1776) ...

  • <em>The state of nature has a law of nature to govern it, which obliges every one: and reason, which is that law, teaches all mankind, who will but consult it, that being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty, or possessions… (and) when his own preservation comes not in competition, ought he, as much as he can, to preserve the rest of mankind, and may not, unless it be to do justice on an offender, take away, or impair the life, or what tends to the preservation of the life, the liberty, health, limb, or goods of another.</em>

Periodization is a useful concept to apply when:
Allisa [31]

Answer:

B. Organizing the history of Mexico into three distinct units of time.

Explanation:

<u>Periodization is the process of organizing or systematically arranging/ classing things in accordance to their time periods</u>. This allows for easy classification or understanding of the tie periods and their aspects/ important facts.

This concept is useful for organizing the history of Mexico into three distinct units of time. As periodization deals with the time periods, this categorizing of Mexican history into the three sections will help in analyzing them according to their common characteristics. This study of the history of Mexico within different time periods will enable the readers to better understand the historical facts in a much easier and more compact way.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
