Social Studies

faltersainse [42]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: Containment was a foreign policy strategy followed by the United States during the Cold War. First laid out by George F. Kennan in 1947, the policy stated that communism needed to be contained and isolated, or else it would spread to neighboring countries. American foreign policy advisors believed that once one country fell to communism, each surrounding country would fall as well, like a row of dominoes. This view was known as the domino theory. Adherence to the policy of containment and domino theory ultimately led to U.S. intervention in Vietnam as well as in Central America and Grenada.

How did the environment of the New England colonies affect the development of slavery in this region?
jeyben [28]
The environment of the New England colonies did not affect the development of slavery in this region. It did not affect the development of slavery because New England soil was not good for farming. Most slaves were used for farming, but since nobody owned a farm in this region, there was little need for slaves, period. Most of the New England region was industries and since the slaves would have to be taught how to do the job, the factory owners pretty much saw no purpose in even using slaves. Don't get me wrong, there may have been some parts of this region that WAS used for farming, but if there were any, it wasn't an abundant amount of them. 

I hope this helps you out! Let me know if you need help with anything else! :)

A major problem that has slowed the economic development of Latin America has been
satela [25.4K]
The answer is that adjusting to the end of the commodity boom, which benefited South America particularly, has taken longer than expected. Between 2003 and 2010 China’s industrialisation boosted demand for minerals, oil and foodstuffs. Commodity prices fell steadily between 2010 and 2015. As export revenue shrank, the region’s currencies weakened, curbing imports and pushing up inflation.

Latin America also faces a fiscal squeeze. The commodity boom temporarily boosted tax revenues. Too many governments spent, rather than invested or saved, this windfall. The primary fiscal deficit (ie, before interest payments) in the region as a whole increased from 0.2% of GDP in 2013 to 2.6% last year. In other words, public debt is rising. Many governments have started to retrench. Few are in a position to prime the pump of recovery.
