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.

It should be noted that Curie's notes are stored in the basements of the National Library of France, stored in thick lead boxes and those who wish to access these documents must follow the appropriate protocol to treat radioactive material, wear appropriate clothing and sign a responsibility  agreement before allowing them to review the documents.

How did the Neolithic Revolution impact the economies of early human societies?
marusya05 [52]
The Neolithic Revolution began the era of permanent societies. Due to the closed nature of society, the demographic of farmers was less diverse than the demographic of herders as they mostly mated within their population. Gender roles became more prevalent. The reliance on the limited amount of land they had gave way to political organization. Less variety in terms of food which affected the overall health of the farming society's citizens.

BartSMP [9]

Answer:  B. Allowed people to live in permanent settlements

Explanation:

The Neolithic Revolution was a period in human history where humans developed better agricultural techniques that allowed them to make food instead of hunting and gathering it.

The ability to grow food meant that humans had surpluses that could be stored and used to feed more people. People therefore stopped needing to migrate for food and therefore settled into permanent settlements.
