Henry Brooks Adams (February 16, 1838 – March 27, 1918) was an American historian and member of the Adams political family, being descended from two U.S. Presidents.
As a young Harvard graduate, he was secretary to his father, Charles Francis Adams, Abraham Lincoln's ambassador in London. The posting had much influence on the younger man, both through experience of wartime diplomacy and absorption in English culture, especially the works of John Stuart Mill. After the American Civil War, he became a noted political journalist who entertained America's foremost intellectuals at his homes in Washington and Boston.
In his lifetime, he was best known for his History of the United States During the Administrations of Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, a nine-volume work, praised for its literary style.
His posthumously published memoirs, The Education of Henry Adams, won the Pulitzer Prize and went on to be named by the Modern Library as the best English-language nonfiction book of the 20th century.[1]
1. B) Burma. France controlled all of the territories listed in Southeast Asia except for Burma. This is because Burma belonged to the UK. Both the UK and French expanded into Southeast for the purpose of acquiring regions during imperialism to obtain raw materials. The French were expelled from the Indochina region following the Vietnam war.
2. B) Japan. Following WWI, the Japanese began to expand a great deal of military and political influence over East Asia and the Pacific. Japan was an industrious island nation, in need of resources for its factories. It also saw itself as the dominant race and nation of East Asia due to its victory over Russia in the early 20th century and its desire for legitimacy in the face of Europe. For these reasons, Japan expanded tremendously around Asia and the Pacific, taking the Dutch East Indies during WWII.
The French economy was hurt and paved the way to them having their own revolution
Advantage---Loose constructionists tend to uphold civil rights and liberties. Judicially active, loose constructionist judges such as Ruth Bader Ginsburg tend to dissent in cases which infringe civil liberties such as Salinas v Texas (2013) and agree with rulings that don't e.g. 2015 Same sex rulingAdvantage---Loose constructionists often protect minorities, especially those incompatible with Congress or the executive. This is because loose constructionists are not scared to overturn laws or actions made by Congress or the executive e.g. Brown v Board of EducationDisadvantage---Loose constructionists tend to be judicially active, which has fuelled arguments on the politicisation of the Court. They 'legislate from the bench' by striking down laws as unconstitutional. This is undemocratic and elitist, as they have mandate from the electorateDisadvantage---Loose constructionists tend to be too sensitive to public opinion, which could hamper the neutrality and independence of the Court. However, some public support is necessary to maintain the authority of the Court.
