History

6 0

Answer:

Starting with Illinois in 1911, the "mother's pension" movement sought to provide state aid for poor fatherless children who would remain in their own homes cared for by their mothers. In effect, poor single mothers would be excused from working outside the home. Welfare reformers argued that the state pensions would also prevent juvenile delinquency since mothers would be able to supervise their children full-time.

By 1933, mother's pension programs were operating in all but two states. They varied greatly from state to state and even from county to county within a state. In 1934, the average state grant per child was $11 a month. Administered in most cases by state juvenile courts, mother's pensions mainly benefitted families headed by white widows. These programs excluded large numbers of divorced, deserted, and minority mothers and their children.

elena55 [62]

Limited government: The government has only the powers that constitution gives it.

Rule of law: The Government and its officers are always subject to the law, never above it.

Federalism: The sharing of power between federal and state government.

Separation of powers: Refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another. The intent is to prevent the concentration of power.

Checks and balances: each branch of the national government can check the actions of the other two branches.

Popular sovereignty: The concept that political power sets with the people who can create, alter and abolish government. People express themselves through voting and free participation in government.

What is one negative effect that can come from applying modern values to historical events?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

In literary and historical analysis, presentism is the anachronistic introduction of present-day ideas and perspectives into depictions or interpretations of the past. Modern historians seek to avoid presentism in their work because they consider it a form of cultural bias, and believe it creates a distorted understanding of their subject matter.[1] The practice of presentism is regarded by some as a common fallacy when writing about the past.
