(100 Points) The Second World War Led To New Humanitarian Concerns Discuss How Both The Universal Declaration

Answers

Answer 1
US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR), in his 1941 State of the Union address (in January), had put forth "Four Freedoms" that he said everyone in the world should enjoy:  Freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear.   America entered World War II in December of 1941, after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor.  Those four freedoms remained central priorities America and the Allies in fighting against German and Japanese acts of aggression and genocide.

After the atrocities of World War II, such as the Nanking massacre (by Japan in China) and the Holocaust (by the Nazis against Jews in Europe), giving further articulation to basic human rights became an important agenda item for the United Nations.  The UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights Drafting Committee was chaired by Eleanor Roosevelt, FDR's wife.  The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was a direct response to the denial of rights that had happened to peoples at the hands of the Nazis and other oppressive regimes.

The establishment of the state of Israel was also a response to what had been done to Jews during World War II.  The Zionist movement had been building toward a Jewish national home in the Palestine region since the late 19th century.  As the magnitude of the Holocaust became more apparent in the wake of World War II, there was greater support in the international community to granting Israel state status.  The new Israeli state had to fight a war against Arab opponents in the region to establish itself, but even before that war, the United Nations (in Resolution 181) had gone on record favoring the establishment of a Jewish state next to an Arab state in the Palestine region.

though the Aztecs held the most powerful empire in Central America, which spanish advantages contributed to the Aztecs defeat

Answers

The Spaniards were generally more technologically advanced in weaponry, and they had the advantage of faster transport (horses). In addition, the Aztecs did not know many sophisticated army tactics and often failed to grasp the importance of supporting and recycling assault units. Aztecs often did not hunt to kill, but rather to sacrifice, so many Spaniards were actually not killed, just wounded heavily, which could enable his fellow army men to rescue him. The Aztecs also placed heavy importance on harvesting and cultural values, so that they could not attack heavily during the winter and harvest months.

B. Native Americans

The way how most of the expedition acted around the Native Americans were drastically different from other settlers. The Expedition tried to build up US and Native American relationships, while most of the settlers just wanted to take advantage of the Native Americans and get as much benefit as possible.

The reason for this is the Lewis & Clark expedition was the pathway to the westward expansion, for they brought the news that the land to the west is good for settling


hope this helps

Final answer:

The Native Americans would most likely come to regret Lewis and Clark's expedition as it led to increased American expansion and encroachment on indigenous lands, despite the initial establishment of relationships with various tribes.

Explanation:

Who would most likely come to regret Lewis and Clark’s expedition? The group that most likely came to regret the expedition of Lewis and Clark would be Native Americans. While the journey commissioned by Thomas Jefferson and spearheaded by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark sought to chart unknown territories, assess commercial possibilities, and establish trade routes, it ultimately led to increased American expansion and encroachment upon indigenous lands.

The Corps of Discovery established relationships with Native American tribes but this also paved the way for traders, settlers, and ultimately, the displacement of many Native people from their ancestral lands. Conversely, American settlers, William Clark, and Thomas Jefferson would have arguably benefited from the expedition's outcomes due to the expanded U.S. territory and improved geographical and scientific knowledge, which bolstered American interests and expansion into the West.

Jefferson's motivations included finding an all-water route to the Pacific, legitimizing U.S. claims to Pacific Northwest territories, exploring commercial opportunities, establishing trade with the Native Americans, and collecting geographical knowledge. Lewis and Clark documented extensive information on the geography, plant life, animals, and natural resources, while also attempting to establish American trade among the western tribes.

Even though the Corps of Discovery did not discover the mythical Northwest Passage, the expedition significantly contributed to the American understanding of the Western territories and sowed seeds for future westward expansion, which in the longer term, had detrimental consequences for Native American cultures and sovereignty.

How did the sinking of the Lusitania lead to US entry into the war in Europe?

A. The military had developed new weapons to employ.
B. The loss of American life was too serious to ignore.
C. The American public wanted revenge for the assassination of Franz Ferdinand.
D. The prevailing outlook called for a quick resolution to hostilities.

Answers

Correct answer:

B. The loss of American life was too serious to ignore.

Explanation:

Public outrage in the US against the Germans swept the nation following the sinking of the British ocean liner, Lusitania.  When a German U-boat (submarine) sank the Lusitania in May, 1915, over 1,000 persons were killed, including more than 100 Americans. The passenger liner was targeted by the Germans because they suspected weapons were being shipped to Britain in the cargo hold of the ship.  Germany managed to stave off American entry into the war at the time by pledging to stop submarine attacks.  

A couple years later, however, Germany resumed unrestricted submarine warfare.  There was also an intercepted telegram (the "Zimmerman Telegram") that showed Germany was trying to secure Mexico as an ally against the United States.  Those events in 1917 led the US to declare war on Germany in response.

Here's an an example of American feeling at the time of the Lusitania incident.  Gifford Pinchot, who had been the Chief of the US Forestry Service (from 1905 to 1910) , was quoted in the New York Times in May, 1915, after he had just recently returned from Europe. He asserted that Americans on the Lusitania (along with other passengers) were killed because an autocratic military empire was trying to dominate nations that were self-governing. His characterization of German intentions mirrored how President Woodrow Wilson later called on the USA to enter the war to "make the world safe for democracy."

what is the main idea that the soviet diplomat is presenting in this passage?

Answers

A)The US is planning to start a war with the Soviets.

You didn't provide the passage that gives the context of your question.  But I suspect the answer you're looking for, based on a question I've seend elsewhere, is:

The United States is planning on dominating the world economy.


Here's context for that:

Soviet ambassador to the United States, Nikolai Novikov, accused the Americans of imperialism as the essence of their foreign policy, in a telegram he sent sent to the Soviet leadership in September, 1946.  In that telegram, sent about a year after the end of World War II, Ambassador Novikov said:  

Europe has come out of the war with a completely dislocated economy, and the economic devastation that occurred in the course of the war cannot be overcome in a short time. All of the countries of Europe and Asia are experiencing a colossal need for consumer goods, industrial and transportation equipment, etc. Such a situation provides American monopolistic capital with prospects for enormous shipments of goods and the importation of capital into these countries -- a circumstance that would permit it to infiltrate their national economies.   Such a development would mean a serious strengthening of the economic position of the United States in the whole world and would be a stage on the road to world domination by the United States.

Novikov's telegram was much longer than that, but those lines give you a glimpse of his accusations about US economic imperialism.

Why did the United States support Ngo Dinh Diem in Vietnam even though he rigged the electrons?

a) He was a close personal friend of President Eisenhower.
b) He was a likeable leader who had been educated in the United States.
c) He was young and able to remain in power over a long period of time.
d) He was not a communist.

Answers

D.) He was not a communist

The United States supported Ngo Dinh Diem in Vietnam primarily because he was not a communist. Hence, the correct answer is option D.

Who was Ngo Dinh Diem?

Ngo Dinh Diem was a Vietnamese statesman who served as the first President of South Vietnam from 1955 until his assassination in 1963. Born in central Vietnam in 1901, Diem was educated in France and the United States before returning to Vietnam to serve in the colonial administration. He rose to prominence in the 1950s as a leading anticommunist figure and was supported by the United States in his efforts to establish a separate South Vietnamese state.

The US government viewed him as a bulwark against the spread of communism in Southeast Asia. Diem's regime was anticommunist and pro-Western, and the US saw him as a reliable ally in the region. While the US was aware of Diem's authoritarian tendencies and election rigging, they prioritized his anticommunist stance over democratic principles.

Therefore, the United States supported Ngo Dinh Diem in Vietnam primarily because he was not a communist. Hence, the correct answer is option D.

the law 1975 that gave indian tribes the ability to self-determine how to run their reservations. why was this law so important to native american tribes?

Answers

This law is known as the Indian Self-Determination and Educational Assistance Act of 1975. This law allowed the federal government to grant funds to Native-American tribes. From there, the tribes got to decide how to use these particular funds.

One of the reasons why this was so important to Native Americans was because before this time, America used the policy of termination. This policy used between the 1940's and 1960's and was focused on assimilating Native Americans into "typical" American culture. This resulted in Native Americans losing the ability to control their own reservations and forced them to abandon many of their traditions.

Now with this new law in 1975, the Native Americans could go back to having more control over their reservations/environment.

What can you infer about what might have been western european concerns at the outset of the invasion of south korea?

Answers

During the offset of the invasion of North Koreans to the South during the Korean war there are a lot of concerns whether to aid the South or avoid the conflict. One of this is whether the USSR would join the war if the United Nations Allied Forces would aid South Korea and whether the war would escalate from a small region conflict into another world war that would lead to a nuclear war between two superpowers - the US and the USSR.
Final answer:

Western European concerns at the outset of the invasion of South Korea were focused on the potential spread of communism and the security implications for the world.

Explanation:

At the outset of the invasion of South Korea, Western European concerns were primarily centered around the potential spread of communism and the implications for global security. The United States was concerned about maintaining its credibility as a defender of democratic nations and preventing the domino effect of communist victories. Additionally, the Korean situation occurred shortly after the communist takeover of neighboring China, which further heightened concerns about the expansion of communism in the region.

2. Briefly explain how the Industrial Revolution and economic motives contributed to European imperialism. (2 points)

Answers

The industrial revolution and economic motives were almost at the center of imperialism. Those who had a good manufacturing base were able to produce weapons far superior to those who were throwing spears at them. They could produce better ships than those riding canoes. They could produce men better trained in the art of war, who were disciplined and fearless in battle.

The best colonies were those that had what appeared to be unlimited natural resources that were untapped. The imperialist countries could then take the natural resources and turn them into manufactured goods that could be sold back to the colonies under their rule. 

The house of representatives is subject to _________, which is the redrawing of the boundaries of congressional districts in a state to make them approximately equal in population size

Answers

I believe the right answer is redistricting. :)
Final answer:

Redistricting in the House of Representatives is done every ten years based on the U.S. Census, adjusting district boundaries to ensure population equality. The process can be affected by gerrymandering, manipulating boundaries to favor a political party or candidate.

Explanation:

The House of Representatives is subject to redistricting, which is the redrawing of the boundaries of congressional districts in a state to make them approximately equal in population size. The purpose of redistricting is to create districts that are equal in population, adhering to the one-person-one-vote principle established by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1962. Redistricting occurs every ten years after the U.S. Census has established population numbers and distribution across the United States. A state may be required to redraw its electoral map if it gains or loses seats in the House of Representatives or to maintain the population balance in each district. The process of redistricting can be impacted by gerrymandering, where district boundaries are manipulated to favor a particular political party or candidate. Despite ethical concerns over gerrymandering, it currently remains legal unless it appears to dilute the votes of racial minorities, which can be challenged under the Voting Rights Act.

About how far is the journey from England to Acre by way of Italy? How far by the way that king Richard traveled?

Answers

The distance between the two areas is somewhere around 2300 miles although it's difficult to say with high degree of precision. Richard traveled with his army over the course of 2 years, but this was faster than most armies did since it could last as much as 3 years for an entire army to travel so far. In smaller groups, it would be possible to cover this area in a year.
Final answer:

The distance from England to Acre, via Italy, and the route taken by King Richard can vary depending on the specific details of the routes. Roughly, it could be over 3,000 miles. Ibn Battuta's travels provide some historical context about long-distance journeys in the past.

Explanation:

The exact distance from England to Acre, passing through Italy, would depend on the specific route taken and the modes of transportation used. As this information is not clearly provided, it's difficult to offer a precise mileage. However, by using a basic online mapping service for a rough estimation, the journey could be over 3,000 miles by land and sea. The same applies for the route taken by King Richard, as it is not explicitly stated which way he travelled.

Ibn Battuta, a fourteenth-century Moroccan traveler, provides further insights into long-distance journeys during his era, having travelled over seventy-three thousand miles during his lifetime. His memoirs, detailing his routes and experiences, served as valuable resources for mapmakers of his time and continue to be a crucial historical source today.

Why did China decide to open relations with the US after Nixon’s multiple attempts?

B) The US offered to stop trading with Japan so that Chinese goods would cost more on the world market
C) The US offered protection against an uprising in rural China
D) China’s increased conflict with the Soviet Union over territory led China to work with the US

Answers

The answer is D. Contrasts with the Soviet Union developed and in 1959 they moved toward becoming rivals in the global framework offering two unique models of socialism. China was seen by progressive US presidents from Dwight Eisenhower to Lyndon Johnson as a feature of the more extensive 'communist threat'; a view fortified by China's procurement of atomic weapons in 1964. China's contribution in the Korean War (1950– 1953) set Chinese troops specifically against US powers and their partners, bringing about a stalemate that kept on isolating North and South Korea well into the twenty-first century.

I would say that B was the case ie Bush's prediction that Iraq's defeat would be quick and cheap was wrong. I believe that the US under Bush had no right to invade Iraq which was a sovereign country definitely with no weapons of mass destruction and its people had a high standard of living and women were much more emanicipated than in many other Arab countries like Saudi Arabia which the US is a staunch ally of. Also, it was gross hypocrisy when before the US had been an ally of Saddam Hussein during the war between Iraq and Iran and supplied him with arms.
