Answer:

Hoover took a hands-off approach, and Roosevelt did the opposite.

Explanation:

Herbert Hoover was under the impression that the stock market crash of 1929 was a simple market correction, that it would go away if everybody just acted like everything was normal, and that markets simply do these things from time to time. By the time Roosevelt took office in 1933, he understood that no quick solutions were to be had. He did start a lot of public works projects, like the Works Projects Administration (which gave a lot of people short-term employment teaching, painting post office murals, and cleaning up public lands) and the Tennessee Valley Authority (which put a lot of broke farmers to work putting a utilities infrastructure in place in parts of the South, putting the pieces of a post-agricultural economy in place).

He also instituted several "bank holidays" to discourage panic-driven depositors from taking all their money out of their banks. Austerity became the new normal in America and stayed that way until the US entered World War II.

What is the "fact-value dichotomy" that emerged in the Enlightenment and lies at the foundation of modern Western culture? What
nadya68 [22]

Answer and Explanation:

The "fact-value dichotomy" that emerged from the Enlightenment was the use of reason against the factors that built the old regime, such as the absolutist monarchy, the deprivation of commercial freedoms and the use of religion to respond to human difficulties. This impacted Christianity because it caused people to abandon the temples and the offerings provided to find a solution to their economic, social and political problems, preferring to seek solutions through study and science.

This caused the Christian church to lose much of its power and influence and reduced its economic condition.

This dichotomy shows how my future career should be based on the search for information and constant improvement, which will allow society to see it more widely and allow me to have a much better future.
