Answer:

Responses will vary. A sample response follows: Initiatives and referendums deal with how an amendment to a state constitution is put on the ballot for the people to vote on. An initiative is when a private citizen collects a certain number of signatures on a petition related to the amendment s/he wants passed. When enough signatures are obtained, the initiative becomes a referendum placed on the ballot for the next statewide general election.

Answer:

1.The process of amending a state constitution is the following:

Before describing it, it is important for you to know that each state of the U.S. has its own rules and procedures that administer the way its constitution should be amended.

These are some of the ways a state constitution can be amend:

It can be changed through judicial action. It happens when a federal court proclaim that some part of the constitution is unconstitutional under the U.S constitution.

Another way is going through a legislatively-referred constitutional amendment.

This method is only approved by 18 states and it is: by the way of an initiated constitutional amendment.

Only in Florida is allowed to amend the constitution through a commission-referred amendment process.

Only in Delaware can be possible to do it through direct action of the state legislature, and

Last it can be done by a constitutional convention.

 2. Initiative process: This process that allows all the citizens of a state pass over their local legislature and propose a constitutional or statute amendment. There are two types of initiative, direct and indirect.

  3. Referendum process: Permits citizens to vote on a law that had passed by the legislature to stop it from taking effect. There are two types of referendums, the legislative and the popular.

Based on what you learned in Act 1, what kind of conflict does Hamlet's struggle with Claudius exemplify?
Citrus2011 [14]

The correct answer is definitely an internal conflict. Hamlet is torn between his uncertain knowledge that Claudius is probably the killer who poisoned his father, late King Hamlet and usurped the throne and his mother’s bed and his apparent inaction and sense of helplessness. Because his initial response is so meditative, he blames himself for failing to rapidly avenge his father’s death but at the same time he suffers greatly because he has no proof of the alleged murder “most foul”.  Furthermore, only a handful of uninfluential allies support him and he is alone in court against King Claudius who enjoys the court’s and his mother’s support. Hamlet considers that taking such a long time to find proof of the murder is akin to a failure to act and compares his own attitude to that of Fortimbras, who wastes no time in words and acts swiftly and bravely.
