Describe the circumstances to the outbreak of revolutionary protest in France |
| Answer» The circumstances which led to the outbreak of revolutionary protest in France were a combination of social, economic, political and Intellectual circumstances. These are discussed below\xa0(i) Social The social order consisted of many inequalities. The privileged classes were the clergy and noblemen, the First and Second Estate respectively. They were exempt from paying taxes. The rest of the citizens belonged to the Third Estate and constituted the majority of the population.They did not have any political rights or social status, but paid all the taxes. So, they were very discontented.(ii) Economic There was a financial crisis as the king\'s treasury was empty, The king\'s luxurious style of living and involvement in wars had made France very poor. There was no money to feed the poor when there was a bad crop.(iii) Political The king ruled like an autocrat and the people had no voice in any decisions. The Estates General (French Parliament) had not been convened for many years. The administration was inefficient, corrupt and disorganized.(iv) Intellectual At that time a number of philosophers refuted the theory of the divine right of kings to rule. They proclaimed a doctrine of sovereignty of the people and equality of all men. They stoked the fires of discontent by exposing the evil actions of the king and nobility. | |

Distuguse between traditional farming and modern farming method |
| Answer» \tTraditional farmingModern FarmingTraditional methods of agriculture and age old equipments are used in this kind of farming. For example, the plowing in the field is done by a pair of bullocks.Advanced technology and modern methods of farming are used in this kind of farming. For example, in modern farming field is plowed by tractors. Further, many machines like harvesters, seed drills, threshers are used in later stages of production.\xa0The production is low as low yield seeds are used and manures and cow dung are used as fertilizers.The production is high as high yield varieties (HVY) of seeds are used. Chemical fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides are used in large quantities.It requires a great amount of labour and hence many job opportunities are provided to the agricultural workers.Since most of the work is carried out by large machines, the job opportunities to the agricultural workers are comparatively less.Since the traditional seeds need less irrigation, the dependence on irrigational facilities is less.Since the HYV seeds need to be irrigated extensively, the dependence on irrigational facilities is far more. Hence more water resources are required.Traditional farming is more environmental friendly as less water is required for irrigation and natural fertilizers are used.It is not environment friendly as extensive irrigation leads to the lowering of water table in the areas located near by the field. Extensive use of fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides affect the quality of crops.\t | |

Write short note on france become republic |
| Answer» The French Revolution was a milestone episode in modern European history. It began in the year 1789 and ended in the late 1790s with the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. All through that time, residents of France were levelling and restructuring their country’s administrative landscape, uprooting centuries-old foundations such as sheer monarchy and the feudal system. The turmoil was caused due to extensive discontent with the monarchy and the pitiable economic policies of King Louis XVI. The French Revolution played a critical role in shaping modern nations by showing its goals and at times disintegrated into a chaotic bloodbath. The social and political structure of France was completely changed due to this revolution. It came to an end to the French feudalism, monarchy and took political power from the Catholic Church. It brought new ideas to Europe including liberty and freedom for the commoner as well as the abolishment of slavery and the rights of women. These new ideas continued to influence Europe and helped to shape many of Europe\'s modern-day governments. | |

What are the short comings of democracy |
| Answer» Democracy is better than any other form of government. It gives equal rights and freedom to every individual. But then also, it has some demerits. Following are the demerits of democracy\tUnstable government:\xa0Thereare\xa0lots\xa0of political parties in a democracy that are allowed to criticise the government and its policies. Sometimes, it leads to the downfall of the ruling party and re-elections in the country. This gives instability to the government. Most of the times no party gets a majority and coalition government is formed, this leads to uncertainty.\tSlow and inefficient government:\xa0Democracy is slow in its functioning. The decision-making process involves long debates and deliberations in Parliament. This takes a lot of time before the decisions are actually taken.\t\xa0Incompetence Democracy allows every individual to voice his concern. As a result, everybody focusses on his personal interests and not the collective interests which sometimes leads to incompetent and wrong selections of the candidates in the government.\tRole of money and muscle power in a democracy: Money plays an important role at the time of the elections. A lot of money is needed to organise demonstrations, public meetings and speeches hence the candidates who can raise a lot of money for the party, are given party tickets. Also, candidates with criminal connections sideline the eligible candidates.\tNoscopeformorality: In democracy elections are all about power play and competition so candidates use dirty tricks to win. | |

What are provisions of legal framework ordered by general Musharraf in Pakistan? |
| Answer» The Legal Framework Order, 2002 was issued by Pakistani president Pervez Musharraf in August 2002. It provided for the general elections of 2002 and the revival of the 1973 Constitution of Pakistan, and added numerous amendments to the Constitution. The following month, the Supreme Court overruled Musharraf, ruling that the amendments would have to be ratified by Parliament in the manner provided in the unamended 1973 Constitution—the amendments would have to be approved by two-thirds of both houses of the bicameral body.After the October 2002 general elections, although Musharraf\'s supporters had a majority in Parliament, they did not have the required two-thirds supermajority to ratify the Legal Framework Order. Parliament was effectively deadlocked by strident opposition from Musharraf\'s opponents for over a year. In December 2003, a faction was persuaded to vote for a compromise amendment bill, the Seventeenth Amendment to the Constitution of Pakistan. With this amendment, parts of the Legal Framework Order were incorporated into the Constitution.\xa0 | |
