Normative relativism is the prescriptive position that we should tolerate individuals or cultures with different moral standards. ... Methodological relativism is the practice of suppressing enculturated biases when studying other cultures (Obeyesekere 1966). Cultural relativism is a descriptive claim that ethical practices differ among cultures; that is, as a matter of fact, what is considered right in one culture may be considered wrong in another. ... Moral relativism is the claim that what is really right or wrong is what the culture says is right or wrong. Moral relativism holds that morals are not absolute but are shaped by social customs and beliefs. ... Moral objectivism maintains there's a single set of moral standards that should be adhered to. There are rights and wrongs which are universal. Morals are not defined simply by society or the individual. Explanation: Moral relativism is the view that moral judgments are true or false only relative to some particular standpoint (for instance, that of a culture or a historical period) and that no standpoint is uniquely privileged over all others. ... Relativistic views of morality first found expression in 5th century B.C.E.

Under its foreign policy of containment, the United States promised to __________. A. stir up revolution in the communist nation
Luda [366]

Correct answer:

<h2>C. prevent further expansion of Soviet domination of other nations </h2>

Explanation/context:

The policy of containment set the tone for US foreign policy by focusing on keeping communism and the Soviet Union's influence limited, rather than by trying to confront the Soviet Union directly or eliminate communism completely.  

George F. Kennan was the one who recommended the policy of containment as the Cold War began.  Kennan was an American diplomat in Moscow after World War II.  In 1946, he sent what became known as "the long telegram" of his advice about what the USA needed to do about the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR).  In those days, everyone feared an ultimate confrontation between the USA and the USSR -- that the Cold War would someday explode into a massive heated conflict between the superpowers.  Kennan, in Moscow, had much foresight to see the internal problems the USSR had.  He advised not pushing the conflict too much, but instead just try to "contain" the Soviet Union and wait for their system to collapse under the weight of its own problems.  Kennan was right.  It took almost 50 years, but eventually the communist system in the USSR fell apart.  [The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics came to an end in 1991.]

(Q006) In Texas, why were primary elections more important than general elections during most of the twentieth century?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Explanation:

This was because Texas was a one party state, and in a one party state, the candidate that wins the primary election is most likely to also win the general election.

A one party state is a state in which the existing constitution permits only one political party to from the government, while the other parties have limited participation in the elections or are outrightly outlawed.
