The New Deal redefined the role of the government, convincing the majority of ordinary Americans that the government not only could but should intervene in the economy as well as protect and provide direct support for American citizens.
Historians and political scientists have most often linked the Great Society to the New Deal; there is no doubt that LBJ was committed to expanding the Rooseveltian reform structure, a phenomenon that he saw as organic rather than static. As he remarked in a March 1937 radio address: “If the administration program [the New Deal] were a temporary thing the situation would be different. But it is not for a day or for a year, but for an age. It must be worked out through time, and long after Roosevelt leaves the White House, it will still be developing, expanding. . . . The man who goes to Congress this year, or next year, must be prepared to meet this condition. He must be capable of growing and progressing with it.” In truth, the Great Society marked the culmination of the effort by liberals to use the concept of positive rights (the right to a decent education, a good job, adequate health care) as opposed to negative rights (freedom of religion, freedom of speech, the right to vote) to achieve social and economic justice.
But, ardent New Dealer though Johnson may have been, he realized that the 1960s were dramatically different from the 1930s. If the New Deal was about security and disengagement from the labor force through such devices as retirement pensions, unemployment compensation, and pensions for the worthy poor, the Great Society, in contrast, was about opportunity and labor force participation. The New Deal supported hard-pressed Americans at a time of economic catastrophe; the Great Society invested in people at the margins of the labor force at a time of economic opportunity. The New Deal was pessimistic, the Great Society optimistic. FDR wanted in the end to create a larger pie, but above all he wanted to ensure that the pieces of whatever pie that existed were more equitably distributed. Assured of an ever-growing pastry by postwar prosperity in general and by the Kennedy tax cut specifically, Johnson was more about political and educational empowerment of the poor and disadvantaged so that they could better compete. He did not on the whole support government-driven redistribution of wealth. He exhibited strong opposition to both guaranteed income measures and public works, favoring instead programs of social rehabilitation and affirmative action.
An “us against them” motif ran through each of the three great reform movements that preceded the Great Society. The Populists railed against bankers, middle men, and railroad magnates. The Progressives decried the threat posed to middle-class society by robber baron capitalists and ignorant, rootless immigrants. In his 1936 acceptance speech, FDR denounced “economic royalists” who were laboring to replace American democracy with an American plutocracy. Lyndon Johnson was determined to rule through consensus, to avoid pitting one group against another. Not only was this a personal inclination, but the stratagems developed for dealing with the civil rights crisis seemed to demand it, and the prevailing prosperity promised to permit it. LBJ made the enemy—the “them”—abstract. Poverty, ignorance, ill health were not the fault of a class or group—they were boils on the body politic. These things were not the result of evil intent or greed on the part of groups or individuals, but seemingly free radicals that everyone hoped to see eliminated from the environment.
The Great Society’s most glaring departure from Populism, Progressivism, and New Deal liberalism was its frontal assault on Jim Crow laws in the South. Despite their idealism, the reformers that preceded Johnson proved unwilling or unable to confront the issue of full citizenship and equality of opportunity for African Americans. In many respects, the interests of black Americans had been sacrificed in the drive by Populists, Progressives, and New Dealers to secure economic and social justice for male-dominated, white, working-class families. Even before he became president, LBJ decided that civil rights for black Americans was an issue that could not wait. If the United States was to retain its fundamental characteristics—individual freedom and democracy coupled with equality under the law and equal opportunity—the nation would have to turn its back on racism in both the public and private spheres. The Great Society would do what previous reform regimes had not dared attempt and in so doing move the nation forward in its ongoing effort to resolve the greatest American dilemma of them all.

Why did Justinian I have the Hagia Sophia built?
A. To eliminate enemies
B. To impress people
C. To reunite with Catholics
D. To split the church
Answer:
B. To impress people.
Explanation:
The Hagia Sophia of Istanbul was a colossal structure of Byzantine architecture that remained one of the most famous architectural designs of the ancient Byzantine empire. Also known as Church of the Holy Wisdom or Church of the Divine Wisdom, the monument not only represents the religious aspect of the period, but also the architectural as well as political aspects.
Justinian I was not the first ruler to order the construction of the Hagia Sophia. In fact, he was the third emperor to order its construction. The first Hagia Sophia was built under Byzantine Emperor Constantius in 360 AD, followed by Emperor Theodosios II who had it rebuilt in 415 AD after it was burned down.
The structure was again burned down for the second time during the "Nika revolts" during Justinian I's rule. In order to impress the people, he ordered the reconstruction of the now-famous Hagia Sophia which was completed in 537 AD. This basilica was his way of diverting the revolting people's sentiments from his new law that increased taxes and also to become more popular among them as a reliable and competent ruler.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.

List at least 4 ways that women contributed to the war effort A B C and D
Answer:
Tens of thousands of women joined The Women's Land Army to work the soil, fields, and orchards to free men for military service. Women took to the land gladly and brought in the harvest during the war years to supply food to the nation, the military, and our allies. With millions of men away from home, women filled manufacturing and agricultural positions on the home front. Others provided support on the front lines as nurses, doctors, ambulance drivers, translators and, in rare cases, on the battlefield.
Answer:
Explanation:
Tens of thousands of women joined The Women's Land Army to work the soil, fields, and orchards to free men for military service.
Women took to the land gladly and brought in the harvest during the war years to supply food to the nation, the military, and our allies
Eight million women volunteered as American Red Cross workers from making surgical dressings, masks, and gowns, operating servicemen’s canteens to provide wholesome entertainment for soldiers and sailors, volunteering as nurse’s aides in veterans' hospitals, and providing recreational services to convalescing servicemen.
The service of American women at war cost them more than just the burden of putting their lives on hold, deferring marriage and children, or pursuing higher education. The sacrifice of these women went far beyond that; in all more than six-hundred of these patriotic women lost their lives in service to their nation.

How does Stalin connect the English language to nazism
Answer:
Hello
Explanation:
On August 23, 1939, Germany and the Soviet Union sign a non-aggression pact, stunning the world, given their diametrically opposed ideologies. But the dictators were, despite appearances, both playing to their own political needs.
After Nazi Germany’s invasion of Czechoslovakia, Britain had to decide to what extent it would intervene should Hitler continue German expansion. Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, at first indifferent to Hitler’s capture of the Sudetenland, the German-speaking area of Czechoslovakia, suddenly snapped to life when Poland became threatened. He made it plain that Britain would be obliged to come to the aid of Poland in the event of German invasion. But he wanted, and needed, an ally. The only power large enough to stop Hitler, and with a vested interest in doing so, was the Soviet Union. But Stalin was cool to Britain after its effort to create a political alliance with Britain and France against Germany had been rebuffed a year earlier. Plus, Poland’s leaders were less than thrilled with the prospect of Russia becoming its guardian; to them, it was simply occupation by another monstrous regime.
Stalin was wary of Britain because its attempt to form a political alliance between Britain and France over Germany had been rejected a year before.
Connection of Stalin with NazismFollowing Nazi Germany's invasion of Czechoslovakia, England had to decide how far it would interfere if Hitler pursued his expansionist policies. The Soviet Union was the only force large enough to defeat Hitler and with a personal stake in doing so.
Stalin, on the other hand, was wary of Britain because its attempt to form a political alliance between Britain and France over Germany had been rejected a year before. Furthermore, the notion of Russia becoming Poland's protector was unappealing to Poland's authorities.

How does this article demonstrate the law
of demand? Is there a possible violation
of the "other factors held constant"
assumption?
Chapter 3 Market Demand
Answer:
Explanation:
Economists use the term demand to refer to the amount of some good or service consumers are willing and able to purchase at each price. Demand is based on needs and wants—a consumer may be able to differentiate between a need and a want, but from an economist’s perspective they are the same thing. Demand is also based on ability to pay. If you cannot pay, you have no effective demand.
What a buyer pays for a unit of the specific good or service is called price. The total number of units purchased at that price is called the quantity demanded. An increase in the price of a good or service almost always decreases the quantity demanded of that good or service. Conversely, a decrease in price will increase the quantity demanded.
When the price of a gallon of gasoline goes up, for example, people look for ways to reduce their consumption by combining several errands, commuting by carpool or mass transit, or taking weekend or vacation trips closer to home. Economists call this inverse relationship between price and quantity demanded the law of demand. The law of demand assumes that all other variables that affect demand are held constant.
Demand schedule and demand curve
A demand schedule is a table that shows the quantity demanded at each price.
A demand curve is a graph that shows the quantity demanded at each price. Sometimes the demand curve is also called a demand schedule because it is a graphical representation of the demand scheduls.
Here's an example of a demand schedule from the market for gasoline.
Price (per gallon) Quantity demanded (millions of gallons)
\$1.00$1.00dollar sign, 1, point, 00 800800800
\$1.20$1.20dollar sign, 1, point, 20 700700700
\$1.40$1.40dollar sign, 1, point, 40 600600600
\$1.60$1.60dollar sign, 1, point, 60 550550550
\$1.80$1.80dollar sign, 1, point, 80 500500500
\$2.00$2.00dollar sign, 2, point, 00 460460460
\$2.20$2.20dollar sign, 2, point, 20 420420420
Price, in this case, is measured in dollars per gallon of gasoline. The quantity demanded is measured in millions of gallons over some time period—for example, per day or per year—and over some geographic area—like a state or a country.
Here's the same information sho
What argument did Captain Alfred Thayer Mahan make in The Influence of Sea Power Upon History?
Answer:
Mahan argued that British control of the seas, combined with a corresponding decline in the naval strength of its major European rivals, paved the way for Great Britain's emergence as the world's dominant military, political, and economic power.
Mahan's The Influence of Sea Power Upon History was an instant success. Mahan's core argument was that naval forces were essential to establishing global military and economic dominance. He outlined six elements of naval strategy that were contributing factors to success or failure of naval operations.

Why did the Articles of Confederation intentionally limit the power of the central government?
(please answer and Please mention the country’s feelings after being ruled by a king. Mention the Revolutionary War (a war for independence) and please mention their feelings regarding the different taxes (IE Stamp Act, Townshend Acts, Intolerable Acts) as ways to explain)
I'll give brainliest
Answer:
The Articles of Confederation did not create a strong national government like we have today. Instead, the Articles of Confederation created a weak national government with limited powers because many ( Feelings of people bc of it : Americans feared ) a strong government would lead to the tyranny they felt under the British government.
-The Townshend Acts were specifically to pay for the salaries of officials such as governors and judges. The British thought that the colonists would be okay with taxes on imports. They had repealed an earlier tax called the Stamp Act because of colonial protests, but thought that taxes on imports would be okay.
-As a result of the Intolerable Acts, even more colonists turned against British rule. Great Britain hoped that the Intolerable Acts would isolate radicals in Massachusetts and cause American colonists to concede the authority of Parliament over their elected assemblies.
-The Intolerable Acts were aimed at isolating Boston, the seat of the most radical anti-British sentiment, from the other colonies. Colonists responded to the Intolerable Acts with a show of unity, convening the First Continental Congress to discuss and negotiate a unified approach to the British.
-The Stamp Act. The American colonies were upset with the British because they put a tax on stamps in the colonies so the British can get out of debt from the French and Indian War and still provide the army with weapons and tools. So to help them get their money back they charged a tax on all of the American colonists.
