5 0

Voltaire is well credited for liberating the political from the relics of mythology and religious dogmas, and affirming the factors of consciousness and scientific knowledge.

Explanation:

  • Despite the controversy of his ideas in which he equally has  places, both for the belief in the progress and the continuous development of humanity, which underlies the development of reason, and for the deciduous claims about the immutability of certain social institutions and relationships.
  • In order to relieve political and social consternation and create basic conditions for respect for natural and human rights, two solutions were available to French citizenship: the radical and the opportunistic.
  • The first would lead to the declaration of war in the Middle Ages, which had not yet come to an end, that is, the confrontation with the old regime in a revolutionary way.
  • Another solution was to penetrate the upper classes, to the nobility, without destroying the order of things. Thus emerged a type of citizen aspiring to the nobility, as he had been portrayed by Moliere in the seventeenth century.

What was the Dawes Act in 1887 meant to do?
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

<u>Integration of Indians in American society</u>

Explanation:

The federal government has almost adopted an act that has further damaged India's interests even more fundamentally. Dawes Act of 1887 intended, to assist the Indians by staying on their land and integrating them into American society. This had a very different effect.

The act laid down the conditions that would give back to the Indians their common rights to their tribal land and instead individual estates of 160 acres (the value of the land was granted by white settlers). Any surplus land in the territory will be sold, and the proceeds will go to the tribes.

This plan was doomed to fail over a short period of time because it was impossible for hunters and warriors to quickly transform into farmers. In the long run, this had the effect of giving the Indians about two-thirds of the 138 million acres of land reserved for them. The energy with which white settlers ransacked free land is clearly evident in Native American territory, first on the reserves.
