Do you think society would be possible without tendency to conform? Explain your position
Illusion [34]

Answer: Society is not possible without a tendency to adapt.

Explanation:

In the 21st century, when population movements are more massive than ever before, adjustment is necessary for society to function. A large number of population migrations can support this fact. Migrations can be temporary, i.e. tourist and permanent. Whatever their character, people after travelling to a particular country must conform to the laws that govern the country. Thus, in the United States, the same laws do not apply as, for example, in Saudi Arabia, they are completely different. The United States has freedom; liberal laws rule the country, while on the other hand, Saudi Arabia is imbued with rigorous religious laws. A person who migrates for any reason (and millions migrate annually) must obey the laws of that country or adapt. The example of the United States and Saudi Arabia is one of many; people have to adapt for society to be functional.

Which religion states that people should live in small self-sufficient communities with limited government?
timofeeve [1]

<u>Taosim </u>believes that people should live in small self-sufficient communities with limited government.

Taoism is a religion that was popular in China many centuries ago. It was based on the value of maintaining harmony with nature and promoting balance in the universe.

The ‘Tao’ refers to the natural order of the universe, and Taoists strive to uphold that order through the practice of <em>wu wei </em>(literally, ‘inaction’). This is the way to resolve conflicts in life and attain happiness.

Taoism supports a communal way of life. But they tend to eschew concentration of power, and instead prefer to live in small self-sufficient communities with limited government.

Use the Comparing Interest Groups and Political Parties Venn diagram and compare and contrast facts about the two types of group
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Explanation:

The main similarity between political parties and interest groups is that they both seek to achieve certain policy objectives. These can be a broad range of policy objectives or only a relative few.

Political parties have a large number of policy objectives that they wish to achieve, whereas pressure groups tend to have only a few. Some pressure groups, such as those that campaign for the protection of the environment, are based around a single issue.

As such, pressure groups tend to have greater coherence than political parties, as it is much easier for their members to unite around a common single objective than a broad range of policies.

This helps to explain why pressure groups endeavor to bring about changes in policy without attaining political power. Their focus is so narrow that it would be virtually impossible for them to secure the kind of broad-based coalition that is essential in a democracy for a political party.

However, despite remaining outside of the formal democratic process, pressure groups—as their name implies—can still exert considerable pressure on policy-makers in order to get the changes that they seek.

Such changes are not always forthcoming, however, because political parties tend to be quite broad-based coalitions. This means that policy-makers need to take into consideration a broad range of stakeholders whose interests are often opposed to those of relevant pressure groups. As a consequence, any changes made by political parties in power tend not to be as bold or as radical as pressure groups, who don't have to deal with the necessary compromises of political power in a democracy, would like.

Can U Make me a small Book Report Of the Book Zachary Beaver?
xeze [42]

When Zachary Beaver Came To Town, by Kimberly Willis Holt, is about 13-year old Toby Wilson and his best friend Cal, as they come of age. Toby and Cal are from a small town in Texas, called Antler. Their boring lives change when a circus sideshow act rolls into town with the world’s fattest boy. His name is Zachary Beaver. This book is about how friendship overcomes obstacles and is made stronger.

It costs two dollars to see Zachary Beaver, and Toby and Cal eagerly pay because they’re bored with their small-town life. They think he’ll be gone by the next day, but three days after they pay to see him, they discover his trailer in front of the local Dairy Maid. Their curiosity gets the better of them so they investigate. They learn that Zachary’s partner, Paulie Rankin, has left Zachary. Feeling bad for him, Toby and Cal deliver groceries to the trailer. They hide to try to see Zachary’s reaction. Soon after, the local sheriff enlists their help and they go back to the trailer to try to befriend Zachary. Despite their attempts to befriend him, Zachary wants nothing to do with Toby and Cal.

At the same time, Toby is facing other challenges. For one, his mom up and left to go to Nashville and pursue her dreams; she entered a contest to be the next big name in country music and decides not to return to Antler. Additionally, Toby struggles with the fact that Cal’s brother is in Vietnam. His name is Wayne and Toby looks up to him. He becomes frustrated with Cal because when Wayne writes to Cal, Cal doesn’t always write back. To rectify this, Toby decides to write a letter to Wayne, except that he signs Cal’s name and not his own.

As if that is not enough stress for a thirteen-year-old, Toby also has a crush on a girl—and not just any girl, the most beautiful girl in Antler according to Toby. Her name is Scarlett, and she doesn’t even notice Toby beyond acknowledging him as a classmate. Instead, she likes a boy named Juan, who is the son of a local farm hand. One day, Juan fails to attend a family party with her and she breaks up with him. Toby uses this opportunity to get closer to Scarlett, and gives her his mother’s pearls as a token of his affection. Despite this overture, she is still in love with Juan.

Toby’s stress continues to grow; aside from his mother’s abandonment, his disdain for Cal’s unwillingness to write to Wayne, and his unrequited love for Scarlett, he has a summer job mowing Miss Myrtie Mae’s lawn. Miss Myrtie Mae is the local librarian and historian in Antler. Her brother, who is senile, was a judge—and Toby is scared of him. One day, when Toby is about to mow the lawn, the judge throws apples at him. Toby overcomes his fear when he realizes that the judge has mistaken him for his grandfather, and after Toby and the judge play baseball together one afternoon, the judge’s behavior toward Toby improves.

Meanwhile, Cal has not forgotten about Zachary and is determined that he and Toby will befriend him. To that end, Cal decides that they will take Zachary to the drive-in. Zachary enjoys himself. Cal sneaks around Zachary’s trailer and discovers that Zachary’s stories about his travels aren’t all true. Instead, the details of the places he has supposedly visited were learned from a collection of books piled in the back of the trailer. Among the books, Cal also finds a baptism Bible that belonged to Zachary’s mother—but Zachary is not baptized. The sheriff is conducting an investigation into Zachary’s background, and tells Toby and Cal that Zachary’s mother was so fat that her funeral drew media attention.

A darkness settles over Toby’s and Cal’s summer when they learn that Wayne has died. The news shocks Toby and he can’t bring himself to visit Cal or anyone else in Cal’s family. His shock is so severe that he can’t even bear to attend the funeral, and this angers Cal, who subsequently ends his friendship with Toby. Toby’s father steps in though and helps Toby and Cal understand one another and make amends.

Toby and Cal decide to work together to get Zachary baptized. They decide that they’ll baptize him in Gossimer Lake. At first, Zachary doesn’t want to be baptized, but when Toby and Cal reveal how they learned he wasn’t baptized, he agrees to be baptized. The ceremony is a success and when they get back to Zachary’s trailer, they find Sheriff Levi waiting for them. Paulie has been in Paris and has told the sheriff he will return in a few days to reclaim custody of Zachary. Throughout these events, Toby helps Scarlett and Juan get back together. He also plans to visit his mother in Nashville. Zachary leaves Antler, but not before promising to write to Toby and Cal, though Toby doesn’t believe Zachary will. Despite that, Toby learns a lot over the summer, including how to see Antler and its residents in a new light.
