History
1 answer:
VARVARA [1.3K]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

(1) the early shift of the hospital from welfare to medical establishment, 1650–1870; (2) the evolution of a successfully medicalized institution for all social classes, 1870–1945; and (3) the creation of a specialized showcase of scientific medicine, 1945 to the present.

Explanation:

During the early modern period, hospitals in Europe's urban centers were charitable shelters for the poor and working classes, functioning primarily as instruments of religious charity and social control with minimal involvement of the medical profession. Whether the patients were Catholic or Protestant, hospitalization continued to be an opportunity for physical comfort as well as moral rehabilitation. However, in time of epidemics such as plague and syphilis, specialized hospitals were created to ensure the isolation of the sick and thus avoid the spread of contagion. Given the expanding institutionalization of charity, the decline of religious institutions, and new roles in the preservation of public health, hospitals increasingly came under lay control, including municipal governments, fraternal organizations, and private patrons After 1650, new geopolitical agendas designed to increase the power and prosperity of the emerging national states pressed hospitals into new roles. Human life was given greater financial value as population policies were aimed at increasing the number of inhabitants as a base for state power, economic development, and military strength. Proponents of emerging European mercantilism viewed labor as the key source of wealth and urged that the nation's workforce be mobilized and kept at an optimum state of productivity. Within such a framework, the desire to promote the health of citizens inspired new programs of public health, hygiene, and medical care.

What was the impact of the Indian removal in the 1830s?
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The Indian Removal Act of 1830 resulted in the mass migrations of many Native Americans in North America.

Explanation:

The Indian Removal Act of 1830 was signed into effect by President Jackson, which allowed Native Americans to settle in land within state borders in exchange for unsettled land. Many Native American tribes reacted peacefully, but many reacted violently. The tribes reacted this way because they believed the land had religious significance. Due to this, some tribes were unwilling to move. One significant example is the Cherokee tribe, who was forcibly led to move from their homelands by US soldiers. Over 4000 Cherokee Native Americans died on this trail, which is now known as the "Trail of Tears."
