How did the Fair Labor Standards act of 1938 impact American society?

History
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]3 years ago
3 0
The Fair Labor Standards Act was an unequivocal success. A special study conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics found that the Act would raise wages for almost 700,000 workers, reduce hours or prompt overtime pay for over one and a half million workers, and prohibit the continued employment of roughly 600,000 children aged 10 to 15. It also put adult Americans back to work and guaranteed that they would be treated and compensated more fairly. The Fair Labor Standards Act succeeded in improving labor standards and actual working conditions, a result that continues to better the daily lives of millions of working Americans.

Describe Cabeza de Vaca's journey from Florida to New Spain. What effect did his journey have on the future exploration of New M
ryzh [129]

Answer

Cabeza de Vaca was a Spanish explorer of the New World, and one of four survivors of the 1527 Narváez expedition. The survivors lived among the natives of the region for four years, and Cabeza de Vaca carved out roles as a trader and a healer in the community. In 1532 he and the other three surviving members of his original party set out for Mexico, where they hoped to connect with other representatives of the Spanish empire. They traveled through Texas, and possibly what are now New Mexico and Arizona, before arriving in northern Mexico in 1536, where they met up with fellow Spaniards, who were in the region to capture slaves. Cabeza de Vaca deplored the Spanish explorers' treatment of Indians, and when he returned home in 1537 he advocated for changes in Spain's policy. After a brief term as governor of a province in Mexico, he became a judge in Seville, Spain, a position he occupied for the remainder of his life.

Future Explorations:

Cabeza de Vaca’s stories concerning the cities of Cíbola caused much excitement in New Spain and the rush to find gold in New Mexico was precipitated by his statement that the Indians at one point in his journey (in the upper Sonora Valley) told him that in the mountain country to the north were some “towns with big houses and many people” with whom they traded parrot feathers for turquoise. These towns were the group of six Zuni pueblos in western New Mexico. The Indians pointed the way to the pueblos and it was thought at the time that these pueblos were in the area of the large buffalo herds of which the Spaniards had vague information.

His stories of gold in New Mexico caused a rush of people to go to New Mexico, which then caused future explorations (influenced new explorations).

musickatia [10]

Modernism most likely emerged because of d. all of the options above including:

  • the faster lifestyle that came with the Second Industrial Revolution
  • the first World War affecting class structures and,
  • the changing times

Modernism refers to a period that started in the late 19th century and continued on into the early 20th century where art and philosophy attempted to catch up to the changing times.

The causes for this were:

  • the second industrial revolution increasing urbanization levels such that life became faster
  • the first World War leading to the lower classes demanding better and traditional class structures crumbling and,
  • the improvements in science, philosophy and human studies

We can therefore say in conclusion that all the above explain why modernism emerged.
