Civil society is a voluntary and self-mobilized social group​

Social Studies
1 answer:
butalik [34]2 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

Civil Society is formed by a “group of non-governmental organisation and institutions” with the main aim of helping people.

Some of the groups are “service organisation, church groups, youth groups” etc.

These groups help in maintaining Democracy in a State and bring out transparency with regard to the policies and rules created. Many NGO, conduct shows like debate etc., in bringing out this.

Many civil society groups have helped women, HIV affected people etc. They get money in the form of grants to help according to the project selected by them. Otherwise, they don’t get any earnings and they are thoroughly a self-mobilized group.

How is a border error made in 1818 significant to people today?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

For years, the state of Georgia has been in desperate need of water. Droughts and water rationing today are commonplace, and Georgia may have a legitimate claim to a section of real estate in Tennessee that would give the state partial rights to the waters of the Tennessee River. That will be for the attorneys to hammer out and for Congress to ultimately decide. But what I find even more thought-provoking is what would happen to the potentially hundreds of thousands of Tennessee residents who would wake up one morning to find they are now Georgians, without having moved one inch.

Back in 1796, the common border of Tennessee and Georgia was determined by the United States Congress. It was to be drawn along the 35th parallel of north latitude. In 1818, two surveyors were charged with mapping this out: one from Tennessee and the other from Georgia. Due to human error, antiquated equipment, or just haphazard surveying of the treacherous terrain, the border was actually mapped one mile south of where it was intended. In 1826, James Camack, a Georgia mathematician who was one of the original surveyors, admitted the error. Three attempts were made to move the border, but none succeeded. That one-mile error may seem insignificant after nearly 190 years of relative acceptance on both sides, but it has now become very significant and critical to the state of Georgia in general, and to the City of Atlanta in particular.

Atlanta is one of the few cities on the continent that’s not built on a water source capable of sustaining it. One of the region’s main reservoirs, Lake Lanier, now stands at 15 feet below normal levels. Given the urban sprawl of the city, the commodity of water has become very precious. Today that one-mile difference would provide the state of Georgia with ownership rights to a small portion of the Tennessee River, and the water so badly needed. Tennessee officials call the move absurd, even musing about dusting off the muskets, but to Georgia legislators it is desperately serious, and they will go to court to correct the error.

So: What if this seemingly far-fetched border shift actually does come to pass? How would the affected Tennesseans’ lives change? Of course there would be the normal nuisances like new phone numbers, drivers’ licenses, and insurance cards. New power and phone companies with which to deal. Forming new allegiances to the Falcons rather than the Titans. (OK, well, that part will never happen!)

But the data suggests that the day-to-day lives of these new Georgians would change for the worse. First, the value of their homes would drop. The median home price in Tennessee is $163,000. In Georgia, it is

$150,000. Further, as Travis H. Brown points out in How Money Walks, they would be pushed from a state with no state income tax to one with a 6% tax; from a state with a state & local tax burden of 7.7% to one with 9%; and from a state with taxes per capita of $2,707 to one that levies an average of $3,222. And finally, on a scale from 1 to 50 (with 1 having the worst national tax burden) Tennessee is ranked nearly the lowest at # 48, to Georgia’s #33.

Clearly, this issue is not simply a story about the water. It is also about the potentially hundreds of thousands of people whose lives will be changed forever.

Len [333]

Answer:

YES there is definitely a contract.

Explanation:

There is indeed a contract. GE made a firm offer as you can see.This firm offer is ruled by UCC. When you are a merchant and you sign a written firm offer. The same offer may not be revoked or canceled within that period of time or three months whichever is less. Here the offer was for  90 days, that is three months  so it is irrevocable.

Bell eastern zhou dynasty what does this bell show about the the development of metal casting and metalworking in ancient china
ki77a [65]

Answer:

The bell depicts the incredible technical complexity during this dispensation of metallurgy in China.

Explanation:

One of the bells under consideration is the Bell (Zhong). It is 38.3 centimeters in height, 17.8 centimeters deep, and 24.4 centimeters wide. It was developed around 770–476 B.C and is made entirely of Bronze.

This kind of bell was used for celebratory occasions was not as the key musical instruments but as an accompaniment.

They were usually clapperless. Clappers in bells are those hammer-like features that are suspended inside the bells to help in the beating of the bell as the bell is swung from side to side. Because of this absence of this feature,  to sound them, one would require a mallet. This category is classified among the Zhong family of bells.

In the Zhou dynasty, there were other kinds of bells such as the Yongzhong bells whose main feature is the rims which are usually raised very high.

Many of these bells are still available as exhibitions at select museums such as the Met Museum.

Cheers
