Answer:

Explanation:

He compares the role of a supreme court justice to that of an umpire in baseball or a referee in football or hockey.

He says for example, that those neutrals would never favor a team for person reasons. A team would never get unfair treatment if they were in a do or die match and had not been in such a match for 50 or more years while their opponents had one this match multiple times. Such behavior would be unthinkable.

He stated that one must uphold the rules as given to him. The idea of a referee or umpire falls apart a little here, but a supreme court justice is not obligated to uphold rules which are unconstitutional. His job is to fairly judge what should be decided.  It does not matter what his own thoughts on abortion might be: he must rule on what the constitution would say about such matters.

Sometimes it is not always easy.

What event played a major role in spread of communism and fascism in Europe
agasfer [191]
Any particular time? I guess the most relevant time for this question is early half of 20th century.
 I think the event was first world war and some of its consequences (in many countries the monarchy was abolished so people "experimented" with new political organisatons, in Germany the war brought huge reparations which contributed to the deterioration of their economy)

and the global economic crisis of 1920

Which describes one of the major criticisms of piaget's theory concerning formal operational thought?
Trava [24]
Adolescents do not show any sense of perception and competence in a cognitive process.As per Piaget children are bit simply incompetent thinkers than most adults. Piaget even expressed that the young ones think far way different than adults. Children should not be trained certain theories until they have outstretched the proper phase of comprehension or cognitive development.
