Sociologist: Some people argue that capital punishment for theft was an essential part of the labor discipline of British capita

lism. Critics of such a view argue that more people were executed for theft in preindustrial England than were executed in England after industrialization. But such a criticism overlooks the fact that industrialization and capitalism are two very different social phenomena, and that the latter predated the former by several centuries.
Which one of the following most accurately describes the role played in the passage by the point that capitalism and industrialization are distinct?
(A) It is cited as some evidence against the claim that capital punishment for theft was an essential part of the labor discipline of British capitalism.
(B) It is cited as a direct contradiction of the claim that capital punishment for theft was an essential part of the labor discipline of British capitalism.
(C) It is an attempt to conclusively prove the claim that capital punishment for theft was an essential part of the labor discipline of British capitalism.
(D) It is cited as a fact supporting the critics of the view that capital punishment for theft was an essential part of the labor discipline of British capitalism.
(E) It is an attempt to undermine the criticism cited against the claim that capital punishment for theft was an essential part of the labor discipline of British capitalism.

Answer: (E) It is an attempt to undermine the criticism cited against the claim that capital punishment for theft was an essential part of the labor discipline of British capitalism.

Explanation:

The point that there is a difference between capitalism and industrialization was made to counter the criticism of capital punishment being an essential part of British capitalism and this is shown when the text reads "... such a criticism overlooks..." which means that the point was made in direct opposition to the criticism.

The author here therefore supports the argument that capital punishment for theft was in fact essential in instilling labor discipline.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The answer is Kulaks

Explanation:

The term Kulak referred to peasants who owned more than 8 acres of land and were considered “hesitating allies” of the revolution. In the 1930s, with Joseph Stalin in control of the Soviet Union, kulaks were decimated; peasants who became wealthier from 1906 to 1914 thanks to the <em>Stolypin Reform</em> were targeted as kulaks, <u>but also anyone who withheld grain from the Bolsheviks</u>. From 1929 to 1932 the dekulakization consisted on the arrest, deportation and execution of millions of prosperous peasants in order to seize their lands as part of Stalin’s first five years plan on the attempt to create new policies centred on a rapid industrialization and collectivization of agriculture (aimed to integrate individual landholdings and labour into collectively-controlled and state-controlled farms).
