The new south era refers to the time period

After World War II, the United States broke from past foreign policy when it did which of the following?

Irina-Kira [14]

George Washington's Farewell Address in 1789 contained one major piece of advice to the country regarding relations with other nations: "avoid entangling alliances." Those words shaped United States foreign policy for more than a century.

Today some Americans think that Washington's words are still wise ones, and that the United States should withdraw from world affairs whenever possible. In truth, however, the United States has been embroiled in world politics throughout the 20th century, and as a result, foreign policy takes up a great deal of government's time, energy, and money.

If isolationism has become outdated, what kind of foreign policy does the United States follow? In the years after World War II, the United States was guided generally by containment — the policy of keeping communism from spreading beyond the countries already under its influence. The policy applied to a world divided by the Cold War, a struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, containment no longer made sense, so in the past ten years, the United States has been redefining its foreign policy. What are its responsibilities, if any, to the rest of the world, now that it has no incentive of luring them to the American "side" in the Cold War? Do the United States still need allies? What action should be taken, if any, when a "hot spot" erupts, causing misery to the people who live in the nations involved? The answers are not easy.

Nations that benefited from the Marshall Plan ;

The economic side of containment: the Marshall Plan was devised to prevent communist takeover of European nations by pumping American aid into the ailing economies and infrastructures of Western Europe.

Foreign Policy Goals ; 

To investigate the nature of current United States foreign policy, the logical source is the State Department, whose job it is to define and direct it. Foreign policy goals include the following:

Preserving the national security of the United States .

Promoting world peace and a secure global environment .

Maintaining a balance of power among nations .

Working with allies to solve international problems .

Promoting democratic values and human rights .

Furthering cooperative foreign trade and global involvement in international trade organizations.

How did the French, Spanish, and Italians react to Juarez's decision to prolong paying off the national debt? (Cinco de Mayo)

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

As a reaction to Juarez's decision to prolong paying off the national debt, France, Spain and Italy sent military forces to Mexico in order to force the payment, which ended up unleashing the Battle of Puebla, remembered in Mexican historiography as Cinco de Mayo.

Explanation:

Cinco de Mayo is a regional holiday in Mexico that is mainly celebrated in the state of Puebla. The day is celebrated to remember the first victory the Mexican forces won, led by General Ignacio Zaragoza, over the French forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

In 1861, Mexico had stopped making interest payments on loans raised by the state. This caused France and other European countries to attack Mexico in late 1861 to try to force the country to continue making interest payments. The French government decided to try to occupy Mexico. The first part of France's invasion was successful, but on May 5, 1862, in the city of Puebla, Mexican troops managed to fight back the French army's attack. In the battle of Puebla, the Mexican army was led by General Ignacio Zaragoza. Although the Mexican army won over France in Puebla, it only meant that the advance of the French troops was delayed to the capital Mexico City, which they occupied a year later, as well as other large parts of Mexico. The French occupation forces let Maximilian I, Emperor of Mexico, take Mexico's faith. The French were defeated in 1867 and then forced out of the country.

/explain and evaluate the views of anaximander regarding the nature of substance.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Early Greek philosopher Anixamander (ca. 610 – 545 BC) was a monist. That means he believed that ultimately there is just one sort of substance underlying all the different things we see in the physical universe. He put forth the idea that this single underlying substance of all things is something beyond our experience. He called it the ἄπειρον (apeiron), which means "the boundless" or "the limitless." Anaximander was reacting to the views of Thales, a previous thinker from his same town, Miletus, who had suggested that there was one underlying substance to all things, and that water was that essential element. Anaximander objected to Thales' thought, because water is something we all see and experience readily in the perceived world. He believed any underlying or base-level substance, from which water and any other physical stuff originated, had to be something beyond the boundaries of our present experience, or "the boundless."

One evaluation of Anaximander's views came from another Milesian philosopher who followed him: Anaximenes. Anaximenes saw the theory of Anaximander as dodging the question, "What is the main ingredient of all things in the universe." By saying, "It's boundless; it's something we don't know," had he really answered anything? So Anaximenes dismissed the view of Anaximander ... but didn't agree with Thales either. Anaximenes proposed that air was the underlying element of all physical phenomena.

You'll have to decide for yourself what you think of Anaximander's "boundless" theory.
