Answer:

John Locke's Second Treatise of Government

Explanation:

The document that the second paragraph of the Declaration of Independence echoes is "John Locke's Second Treatise of Government."

This is because "John Locke's Second Treatise of Government, "the main idea focused on the fact that people are equal and invested with natural rights in a state of nature in which they live free from outside rule.

First Amendment impact in the usa
Gelneren [198K]

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guarantees the rights to freedom of speech and of the press, to peaceably assemble and to petition the government for redress of grievances. These guarantees affect me every day and empower me as a citizen seeking to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

The U.S. Constitution outlines the powers and duties of the three branches of the federal government and its relationship with the states. This republican form of government allows me to enjoy the special privileges of living in California plus all that is guaranteed from being part of the United States of America.

But when I think about how the U.S. Constitution affects my daily life, I start with the Bill of Rights rather than the structure of government, and I usually do not get beyond the First Amendment.

plz mark me as brainliest :)

1. Read the quote by Raphael Lemkin.
iVinArrow [24]

Answers to #1:

Raphael Lemkin's definition of genocide was not accepted until after the Holocaust.

Raphael Lemkin had been studying the problem of mass killings of a people group since the 1920s, in regard to Turkish slaughter of Armenians in 1915.  He coined the term "genocide" in 1944, in reference then also to the Holocaust.  The term uses Greek language roots and means "killing of a race" of people.  Lemkin served as an advisor to Justice Robert Jackson, the lead prosecutor at the Nuremberg trials.  "Crimes against humanity" was the charge used at the Nuremberg trials, since no international legal definition of "genocide" had yet been accepted.  Ultimately, Lemkin was able to persuade the United Nations to accept the definition of genocide and codify it into international law.  In December, 1948, the United Nations adopted the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, which made use of a number of Lemkin's ideas on the subject.

#2:   For item #2, you didn't ask a question, so I won't attempt to guess at what question you might have in mind.  The definition as you quote it comes from Article II of the UN's Genocide Convention.  Article III also indicts intention and conspiracy to commit genocide as crimes against international law.  Article IV of that same Convention then puts teeth into the UN's action, saying, "Persons committing genocide or any of the other acts enumerated in article III shall be punished, whether they are constitutionally responsible rulers, public officials or private individuals."
