The correct answer is B) nostalgia for an earlier America.

<em>The concept of "normalcy" was based on a nostalgia for an earlier America.</em>

When people refer to phrases such as "...in my times, things were much better..." or "when I was in college in the 1960s, life was much easier..." they are talking with nostalgia, remembering better days in the past that won't come back. Nostalgia is generally defined as a feeling of good memories, goof feelings accompanied with some sadness for the things that happened in the past or the ways used to be in the past. That is why people have nostalgy of how things were in America in the past

Check Understanding In invalidating preclearance provisions, what larger point was the Supreme Court making about voting rights?

Ksenya-84 [330]

The Supreme Court was affirming the point that states (not the federal government) should be in charge of the voting procedures in their states.

The Supreme Court decision you're referring to, which invalidated pre-clearance conditions, was Shelby County v. Holder (2013). "Pre-clearance" meant that certain states, according to the Voting Rights Acts of 1965, had to get approval in advance from federal authorities for any changes they made to their state regulations regarding voting. That standard had been applied to several states because they had displayed discriminatory practice in their voting laws. The decision in Shelby County v. Holder held that the federal government could not keep applying that requirement on the basis of decades-old data.

The Code of Hammurabi is a code of law from ancient Mesopotamia that dates back to 1754 BC. The basis of its laws is a system of "an eye for an eye," adjusting the law as a person's status in the community increased or decreased. If the crime committed is to an equal, the punishment generally is to suffer the same injury, as described in the text.
