To your first question--James Madison is widely known as the architect of the US Constitution (Although in reality it was the result of team work by 56 delegates).
To your second question--The six key principles outlined in the US Constitution are:
1. Popular Sovereignty (i.e. democracy or rule by the people)
2. Limited Government (i.e. again, democracy or the government can only do what the people instructs it to do)
3. Separation of Powers (there are three branches of power: legislative, executive, and judicial AND they are separate from each other)
Which brings me to...
4. Checks and Balances (each branch "checks and balances" the other two branches' power. For ex: the US President can veto congressional bills, Congress can ratifies judicial nominees, and the Supreme Court decides on the constitutionality of congressional bills).
5. Judicial Reviews (the judicial branch reviews governmental actions)
6. Federalism (there is a federal and a state government. These are separate from each other)
Answer:
D) Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries
Explanation:
Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), made up of 15 member countries, regulates the amount and price of crude oil (a world-wide commodity) in circulation.
When there is excess oil in circulation, OPEC reduces production volumes and when oil is scarce, it increases the prices of oil so it can maintain stable production levels.
By doing so, OPEC has been able to successfully determine the amount and prices of oil world-wide.
Answer:
Cognitive dissonance
Explanation:
The term Cognitive Dissonance was first introduced by Leon Festinger and it refers to what happens when a person has two or more contradictory beliefs or ideas and experiences psychological stress because of that. In other words, when two ideas are opposite to each other, the person will experience stress and will try to reduce this difference to reduce their discomfort. This usually happens when <u>new evidence contradicts the person previous belief and it creates stress</u> (cognitive dissonance).
Therefore, the state of conflict that someone experiences after taking an action, making a decision, or being exposed to information that is contrary to his or her beliefs is known as cognitive dissonance.
