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.

Augustus centralized the government, as it went from a Republic to an Empire. As an Empire, there is an Emperor who does and decides everything, as he pleases. In a Republic there is a Senate who has to approve everything, before it becomes a legislation(a kind of law/rule). The Senate was the ,,crowd's voice".

8. In 3-4 complete sentences, analyze how the geography of Europe encouraged the creation of many independent kingdoms. Use the
puteri [66]

Answer:

The interconnection of the Eastern and Western hemispheres made possible by transoceanic voyaging

marked a key transformation of this period. Technological innovations helped to make transoceanic

connections possible. Changing patterns of long-distance trade included the global circulation of some

commodities and the formation of new regional markets and financial centers. Increased transregional

and global trade networks facilitated the spread of religion and other elements of culture as well

as the migration of large numbers of people. Germs carried to the Americas ravaged the indigenous

peoples, while the global exchange of crops and animals altered agriculture, diets, and populations

around the planet.
