How did the theory of social Darwinism affect the governments relationship to big business ?

History
1 answer:
Sloan [31]3 years ago
5 0
Social Darwinism most heavily affected the US government's relationship to big business during the late 1800s, coined by Mark Twain as "the Gilded Age." The theory affected this relationship by convincing (or allowing politicians to convince themselves) that only the strongest will survive and thus the government operated under a <em>laissez-faire </em>system (French for "hands off"). The government felt it should not regulate or weigh in on business issues and instead let businesses conduct affairs amongst themselves; however, this led to the creation of large monopolies, the formation of a moneyed elite still with us today, and the creation of the now huge wealth gap between the richest and poorest Americans.

Criticisms of conformity and materialism in American society in the 1950s resulted in which of these?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

The correct answer is D) The beatnik and counterculture movements.

During the 1950's, predefined gender roles greatly impacted the structure of American society. The idea that men were supposed to be the breadwinner of the houses while women were supposed to stay home and raise kids was a prevalent concept. This conformist culture resulted in backlash from citizens who did not believe in having this type of life. For example, some women despised the conformist culture as they felt it limited economic opportunities for women.
