Outcomes of democracy five points |
| Answer» The most basic outcome of democracy is that it produces a government that is accountable to the citizens, and responsive to the needs and expectations of the citizens.Democratic government can apparently be less efficient than a non-democratic government. This happens because a non-democratic government does not need to arrive at consensus among a diverse set of people. Democracy functions on the basis of deliberation and negotiation and hence decisions are often delayed. But this does not mean that a democratic government is less efficient. | |

three steps in the formation of british nation |
| Answer» (i)In Britain the formation of the nation-state was not the result of a sudden upheaval or revolution. It was the result of a long-drawn-out process. The primary identities of the people who inhabited were ethnic ones – such as English, Welsh, Scot or Irish.ii) But as the English nation steadily grew in wealth, importance and power, it was able to extend its influence over the other nations of the islands.iii)The Act of Union (1707) between England and Scotland that resulted in the formation of the ‘United Kingdom of Great Britain’ meant, in effect, that England was able to impose its influence on Scotland. The British parliament was henceforth dominated by its English members.iv)Scotland’s distinctive culture and political institutions were systematically suppressed. The Catholic clans suffered terrible repression whenever they attempted to assert their independence. The Scottish Highlanders were forbidden to speak their Gaelic language or wear their national dress, and large numbers were forcibly driven out of their homeland. | |

Explain unification of italy and germany? |
| Answer» Germany: After 1848, nationalism in Europe moved away from its association\xa0with democracy and revolution. Nationalist sentiments were often\xa0mobilised by conservatives for promoting state power and achieving\xa0political domination over Europe.\xa0This can be observed in the process by which Germany and Italy came\xa0to be unified as nation-states. As you have seen, nationalist feelings were\xa0widespread among middle-class Germans, who in 1848 tried to unite\xa0the different regions of the German confederation into a nation-state\xa0governed by an elected parliament. This liberal initiative to nation-building\xa0was, however, repressed by the combined forces of the monarchy and\xa0the military, supported by the large landowners (called Junkers) of Prussia.\xa0From then on, Prussia took on the leadership of the movement for\xa0national unification. Its chief minister, Otto von\xa0Bismarck, was the architect of this process carried\xa0out with the help of the Prussian army and\xa0bureaucracy. Three wars over seven years – with\xa0Austria, Denmark and France – ended in Prussian\xa0victory and completed the process of unification.\xa0In January 1871, the Prussian king, William I,\xa0was proclaimed German Emperor in a ceremony\xa0held at Versailles.On the bitterly cold morning of 18 January 1871,\xa0an assembly comprising the princes of the\xa0German states, representatives of the army,\xa0important Prussian ministers including the chief\xa0minister Otto von Bismarck gathered in the\xa0unheated Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles to proclaim the new German Empire headed\xa0by Kaiser William I of Prussia.\xa0The nation-building process in Germany had\xa0demonstrated the dominance of Prussian state\xa0power. The new state placed a strong emphasis\xa0on modernising the currency, banking, legal\xa0and judicial systems in Germany. Prussian\xa0measures and practices often became a model for\xa0the rest of Germany.Italy: Like Germany, Italy too had a long history of political fragmentation.\xa0Italians were scattered over several dynastic states as well as the\xa0multi-national Habsburg Empire. During the middle of the\xa0nineteenth century, Italy was divided into seven states, of which\xa0only one, Sardinia-Piedmont, was ruled by an Italian princely house.\xa0The north was under Austrian Habsburgs, the centre was ruled by\xa0the Pope and the southern regions were under the domination\xa0of the Bourbon kings of Spain. Even the Italian language had\xa0not acquired one common form and still had many regional and\xa0local variations.During the 1830s, Giuseppe Mazzini had sought to put together a\xa0coherent programme for a unitary Italian Republic. He had also\xa0formed a secret society called Young Italy for the dissemination of\xa0his goals. The failure of revolutionary uprisings both in 1831 and\xa01848 meant that the mantle now fell on Sardinia-Piedmont under\xa0its ruler King Victor Emmanuel II to unify the Italian states through\xa0war. In the eyes of the ruling elites of this region, a unified\xa0Italy offered them the possibility of economic development and\xa0political dominance.Chief Minister Cavour who led the movement to unify the regions\xa0of Italy was neither a revolutionary nor a democrat. Like many\xa0other wealthy and educated members of the Italian elite, he spoke\xa0French much better than he did Italian. Through a tactful diplomatic\xa0alliance with France engineered by Cavour, Sardinia-Piedmont\xa0succeeded in defeating the Austrian forces in 1859. Apart from regular\xa0troops, a large number of armed volunteers under the leadership of\xa0Giuseppe Garibaldi joined the fray. In 1860, they marched into South\xa0Italy and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and succeeded in winning\xa0the support of the local peasants in order to drive out the Spanish\xa0rulers. In 1861 Victor Emmanuel II was proclaimed king of united\xa0Italy. However, much of the Italian population, among whom rates\xa0of illiteracy were very high, remained blissfully unaware of liberalnationalist\xa0ideology. The peasant masses who had supported Garibaldi\xa0in southern Italy had never heard of Italia, and believed that ‘La Talia’\xa0was Victor Emmanuel’s wife! | |

What are the affect of industrial revolution |
| Answer» \tThe factory system was a child of the Industrial Revolution and developed and advanced during its course in the 18th and 19th century. It replaced the cottage industry which was more autonomous with individual workers using hand tools and simple machinery to fabricate goods in their own homes.\tCapitalism refers to an economic system based upon private ownership of the means of production and their operation for profit. With political control over the colonies and rise in technological innovations, Capitalism was on a rise in Britain.\tThe rise of cities was one of the defining and most lasting features of the Industrial Revolution. In pre-industrial societies almost 80% of people lived in rural areas dependent on farming and animal husbandry. The growth in population due to the agriculture revolution and the rise in industry had reduced the opportunities in the rural areas causing large migrations to the industrialized cities.\tFor many skilled workers, the quality of life decreased a great deal in the first 60 years of the Industrial Revolution. Skilled weavers, for example, lived well in pre-industrial society as a kind of middle class. They tended their own gardens, worked on textiles in their homes or small shops, and raised farm animals. | |

What is global precipitation |
| Answer» Precipitation is any type of water that forms in the Earth\'s atmosphere and then drops onto the surface of the Earth.Water vapor , droplets of water suspended in the air, builds up in the Earth\'s atmosphere. Water vapor in the atmosphere is visible as clouds and fog . Water vapor collects with other materials, such as dust , in clouds.Precipitation condenses, or forms, around these tiny pieces of material, called cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) .Clouds eventually get too full of water vapor, and the precipitation turns into a liquid ( rain ) or a solid ( snow ).Precipitation is part of the water cycle . Precipitation falls to the ground as snow and rain. It eventually evaporates and rises back into the atmosphere as a gas. In clouds, it turns back into liquid or solid water, and it falls to Earth again. People rely on precipitation for fresh water to drink, bathe, and irrigate crops for food. | |

Describe the story of print in China, Japan, and Europe . |
| Answer» Print in Japan: The Buddhist missionaries from China introduced hand-printing technology into Japan around 768 – 770 AD. The Buddhist Diamond Sutra which was printed in 868 AD was the oldest Japanese book. Libraries and bookstores were packed with hand-printed materials of various types. These included books on women, musical instruments, calculations, tea ceremony, flower arrangements, proper etiquette, cooking and famous places.Print Comes to Europe: Marco Polo was a great explorer from Italy.

What is the difference between politics in caste and caste in politics? |
| Answer» Politics in CasteThe caste system in India can also become politicised in the following ways:\tWhen a particular caste tries to gain prominence by adding many neighbouring castes and sub-castes which were earlier not included.\tThe caste system also becomes politicised when caste groups are required to enter into a coalition with other castes. In such a case, every caste tries to gain maximum benefits for itself.\tOf late, many caste groups have gained entry into politics by terming themselves as ‘backward’ or ‘forward’ caste groups.It is to be noticed that the existence of the caste system is itself not healthy for any democracy. It mostly produces negative results. In India, it has resulted in the vicious circle of poverty, unemployment and illiteracy for many castes. The caste system may also lead to caste division, caste violence and conflicts resulting in violence.Caste in Politics\xa0However, we also need to keep in mind that the caste system always does not play a role in shaping politics or deciding the candidates from a constituency. This is due to the following reasons:\tNot every constituency in the country has a clear majority of one single caste. Therefore, every party is required to win the trust of the people belonging to different castes.\tNo political party wins all the votes of a particular favoured caste or community. When people say that caste is a ‘vote bank’, they simply mean that many people from that one particular caste may vote for the party.\tBecause several political parties fight elections, there may be many candidates from the same caste fighting elections against each other.\tIt has been seen that many elected MPs or MLAs may lose the elections. If candidates are elected on caste lines, then no candidate can ever lose the elections. | |

Why mncs are need for the development of any country |
| Answer» Developing countries are becoming a hub of MNCs because of the reason that these countries are most eager and are underway to develop and want to be on par with the developed countries. Thus these countries ease up their norms and regulations and try to attract these foreign companies to open up their business units in these developing nations. Thus, the profit and ease of doing business in these countries makes them a preferred location for MNCs. They Provide an inflow of capital into the developing country. E.g. the investment to build the factory is counted as a capital flow on the financial account of the balance of payments. This capital investment helps the economy develop and increase its productive capacity. The Harod Domar model of growth suggests that this level of investment is important for determining the level of economic growth.The inflows of capital help to finance a current account deficit. (foreign investment enables developing countries to buy imports).Multinational corporations provide employment. Although wages seem very low to us, people in developing countries often see these new jobs as preferable to working as a subsistence farmer with even lower income. Multinational firms may help improve infrastructure in the economy. They may improve the skills of their workforce. Foreign investment may stimulate spending in infrastructure such as roads and transport. Multinational firms help to diversify the economy away from relying on primary products and agriculture – which are often subject to volatile prices and supply. | |

\'A challenge is not just any problem but an opportunity for progress\'. Analyse the satement |
| Answer» A challenge is not just any problem. Only those difficulties are a ‘challenge’ which are significant and can be overcome and therefore carry within them an opportunity for progress. Democracy is the dominant form of government in the contemporary world. It does not face a particular challenger, but the promise of democracy is far from realised anywhere in the world. Democracy as a whole faces certain challenges.Legal constitutional changes by themselves cannot help to overcome challenges to democracy—like economic inequality, unemployment, illiteracy, caste, gender discrimination. Democratic reforms can be carried out by political activities, parties, movements and politically conscious citizens, in order to realise the opportunity in a challenge, in order to overcome it an go up to a higher level. | |
