Answer:

Among the most influential critics was Italian Cesare Beccaria (1738–1794), who saw physical punishments as "barbaric." He favored imprisonment as a more humane method of punishment.

Explanation:

Crime and Punishment

As Enlightenment thinking began to challenge traditional ways that governments operated, some philosophes also challenged views of crime and punishment. The topic of criminality and the laws that outlined punishment for crimes became a popular subject. Throughout Europe in the eighteenth century, physical punishments, torture, and the death penalty were the main methods of court justice. The death penalty in England, for instance, applied to more than 200 crimes, including nonviolent crimes against property, such as stealing a loaf of bread. In many European countries, torture was regularly used as a means of getting confessions, and public executions and physical punishments such as public floggings were routine. Among the most influential critics was Italian Cesare Beccaria (1738–1794), who saw physical punishments as "barbaric." He favored imprisonment as a more humane method of punishment. Cesare Beccaria is seen as the founder of the modern penitentiary system today.

Andrej [43]

Health care in North Carolina changed during the Progressive Era by giving advanced medical training and hospital quality improved  

Explanation:

North Carolina was the highly populated and during the progressive era reports stated that many young individuals were not willing to join in the army due to various health concerns. It was supervised and an immediate federal measure called Pie commission was formed. It worked for the medical benefits received by the customers.

It aimed at establishing quality oriented hospitals and many trained physicians and nurses were appointed. At schools, medical examination was compulsory and many doctors who were trained received scholarship if they agreed to work in remote rural undeserved areas for the health and welfare of the community.  

Soon, Pie commission understood that the funds that were appropriated were not adequate and hence larger federal funds were invested in health departments. Much health insurance coverage was provided to the citizens in North Carolina.

Segregation did not restrict from the medical services to render benefits and many African Americans yielded many benefits out of it. Emergence of North Carolina institute of medicine aimed at graduating many trained doctors who worked relentlessly for the health development of its citizens.

Is the US government serving its intended purpose?
stira [4]

Answer:

Concerning the executive branch of the government in which the president is in control. It has been nothing but self-interest for a President who does nothing but belittle Minorities in order to boost his own campaign on the fuel of racism. But the legislative and judicial branches have been executing their jobs passing on laws that do not harm our constitutional rights. But in the supreme court, there have been many recent rulings promoting equality. Apart from the United States voting in a pathetic President who is only concerned with his own well being and undermining the American people, for example, cutting tax funds for social security.
