What two developments led to the declaration of a state of emergency in 1952 by the governor of kenya?
Mandarinka [93]

The two developments that led to a state of emergency being formally declared in 1965 by the governor of Kenya were:

  • Mau Mau attacks on individuals and settlements loyal to Britain.
  • failure of a 1950 ban to stop the growth of the Mau Mau Rebellion.

<h3>Why did Kenya see a state of emergency in 1952?</h3>

As anti-colonial sentiment spread across Africa after World War II, Kenya was no different and the Mau Mau organization was one of those that pushed for independence in Kenya.

They went about it violently however by attacking individuals and settlements that were seen as pro-British and therefore had government protection.

This led to a ban in 1950 to stop the growth of the Mau Mau organization. This ban failed however, as the Mau Mau only grew in numbers and popularity.

In the end, the governor had to declare a state of emergency to deal with the Mau Mau Uprising.

What is more important the robust of public domain or the well being of private interests?
Darya [45]

Answer:

The well being of private citizens is more important.

Explanation:

The public domain has as its  primary duty the defense of the interests of civil society. If the state is better organized, more robust, it can help society to flourish. However, the well being of the state is subservient to the wellbeing of each citizen, private interests. Furthermore, civil society is the source of governance insofar as i) government officials are elected from civil society and ii) public policy serves the private interests of the people. So in a society it is indispensable to have a more robust state and a better- served civil society, keeping in mind the order of importance.
