What is fedual system and serfdom |
|
Answer» The period of history from the 5th to the 15th century was known as the Middle Ages. During this time, the law of the land in Europe was known as the “feudal system.” This was the manner in which the upper 10% (the nobility) controlled the lower 90% (the serfs or peasants).There were a few kings who were very wealthy and powerful, who owned all of the land. To maintain control of this land, it was broken into fiefdoms and pieces were given to friends of the kings (barons). The barons then\xa0allotted\xa0land to their friends and allies in order to govern efficiently. It was in this manner that the “nobility” was created, and the land passed down through these select few families by manner of inheritances.\xa0The reward of being delegated this control came at a price. To maintain the control of the fiefdoms, manors and estates, the nobility had to pledge fealty to the kings and pay them taxes and homage.It is estimated that just over 90% of the population of Europe were peasants. Most peasants were basically slaves. They were provided with a small shelter on an inferior piece of land and the “protection” of the noble in charge of that area. In return, they worked for the estate, farming the land with no recompense, paying taxes and having no control over their own lives. Some peasants were “free” and had their own small businesses: blacksmiths, carpenters, bakers, etc. They paid for the protection of the “lord” with money, goods and services.Peasants had few rights. They could be taxed at any time, were obligated to use (and pay for) services of the manor like mills or large ovens, and had to request permission for marriages, change of locations or educating their children.Each year, the peasant was required to give the best part of his harvest to the lord of the manor. The peasants were not allowed to own things that made their lives easier, like oxen or horses, for example. A peasant did not own the land on which he lived and was therefore obligated to live where he was told, grow what he was told, and farm in the manner in which he was told. They were not allowed to hunt on the lord’s land – poaching was an offense punishable by death. They were not allowed to cut trees for firewood, but forced to gather fallen branches in order to stay warm. A peasant was not allowed to have real, effective weapons – those were reserved for the armies of the nobility, in order to keep the peasants in line and immediately quell any quest for dignity and independence.Most of the peasants seemed content with the arrangement because they received security and safety from the lord. He was obligated to protect them from marauders and barbarians, and provide enough land for subsistence. Serfs could be used as a commodity, and traded. If the control of the land changed hands, the serfs were included in the transaction. \xa0 |

Explain the clashes in towns and villagers\xa0 |
| Answer» Towns Vs Village\xa0Most people live in villages and towns. Although some may opt to live in cities and other urban areas, there are still a lot of people who prefer the peace and quiet of\xa0rural\xa0living. Villages and towns are not as densely populated, not as polluted, and certainly not as fast-paced as cities.While they are both located in rural areas and while they both have a fresher and cleaner environment, villages and towns have several differences that makes them distinct from each other. One\xa0would\xa0be their land areas. Villages have smaller land areas than towns since towns are actually villages that have expanded or extended annexing nearby villages.And because they have a larger land area than villages, it follows that towns have larger populations than villages. Inhabitants of towns have more access to the town market and shops, the fire and police stations,\xa0entertainment\xa0facilities, and the local seat of government.A village does not have a mayor nor does it have local laws since it is a part of a town and is, therefore, governed by the town officials. It has a simpler\xa0system\xa0of utilities and is sometimes lacking in transportation facilities and other important services. There are also more employment opportunities in towns with a variety of choices unlike in villages wherein if one does not have a profession like a doctor or a teacher, he is most likely a farmer or a fisherman.Schools that offer higher education are also usually located in towns and cities rather than in villages. Villages only offer up to secondary\xa0school\xa0while towns can have colleges. Public libraries and hospitals are also located in townMost people live in villages and towns.

Write a note on\xa0Giuseppe\xa0Maxine?\xa0 |
| Answer» Ans.\xa0Giuseppe Mazzini was an Italian revolutionary. He was born in 1807. He became a member of the secret society of the Carbonari. When he was 24 years old, he was sent into exile in 1831 for attempting a revolution in Liguria. After that, he founded two more underground societies; first Young Italy in Marseilles and then Young Europe in Berne.Mazzini believed that God had intended nations to be the natural units of mankind. So Italy had to be forged into a single unified republic instead of being a patchwork of small state kingdoms. Following in the footsteps of Mazzini, many secret societies were set up Germany, France, Switzerland and Poland. The Conservatives feared Mazzini. | |

|
Answer» In the gudem hill of Andhra Pradesh a militant guerilla movement spread in early 1920’s this movement was not similar to Gandhiji non-cooperation movement yet the inspiration came from Gandhiji.The movement was basically protest against forest laws.

How does political parties can be reform? |
| Answer» Ans.\xa0Change can happen in a democratic system only through the elected representatives of the people. But if the elected representatives from the parties are not willing to change, reform is not possible.However, some recent developments in India seem to be happening in the right direction:\tThe Constitution was amended to prevent MLAs and MPs from changing parties after election. This was because MLAs would change parties to bring another party into power for a cash reward. Now an MLS or MP who changes parties must forfeit his seat in the Legislature.\xa0\tThe Supreme Court has made it mandatory for all candidates to file an affidavit stating details about all his property and criminal cases pending against him. However, right now there is no mechanism to check the accuracy of the details provided.\xa0\tThe Election Commission has made it mandatory for parties to conduct internal elections and file income tax returnsBesides these, other suggestion have been made to reform political parties:\tIt should be made compulsory for political parties to maintain a register of its members, to follow its own constitution, to have an independent authority, to act as a judge in case of party disputes, to hold open elections to the highest posts.\xa0\tIt should be made mandatory for political parties to give a minimum number of tickets, about one-third, to women candidates. Similarly, there should be a quota for women in the decision making bodies of the party.\xa0\tThere should be state funding of elections. The government should give parties money to support their election expenses. This support could be given in kind: petrol, paper, telephone etc. Or it could be given in cash on the basis of the votes secured by the party in the last election.\t\tHowever we must be careful not to over-regulate parties, since that will force all of them to find ways to cheat the law. Also, parties may repeal legislations that they do not like, when they come to power.\t\tBut public pressure can make parties more responsive. If political parties feel that they would lose public support by not taking up reforms, they would become more serious about reforms. reform join parties, they can influence the party organization to accept reform\xa0 | |

Summary of the rime of ancient Mariner\xa0 |
| Answer» Three guys are on the way to a wedding celebration when an old sailor (the Mariner) stops one of them at the door (we\'ll call him the Wedding Guest). Using his hypnotic eyes to hold the attention of the Wedding Guest, he starts telling a story about a disastrous journey he took. The Wedding Guest\xa0really\xa0wants to go party, but he can\'t pry himself away from this grizzled old mariner. The Mariner begins his story. They left port, and the ship sailed down near Antarctica to get away from a bad storm, but then they get caught in a dangerous, foggy ice field. An albatross shows up to steer them through the fog and provide good winds, but then the Mariner decides to shoot it. Oops.Pretty soon the sailors lose their wind, and it gets really hot. They run out of water, and everyone blames the Mariner. The ship seems to be haunted by a bad spirit, and weird stuff starts appearing, like slimy creatures that walk on the ocean. The Mariner\'s crewmates decide to hang the dead albatross around his neck to remind him of his error.Everyone is literally dying of thirst. The Mariner sees another ship\'s sail at a distance. He wants to yell out, but his mouth is too dry, so he sucks some of his own blood to moisten his lips. He\'s like, "A ship! We\'re saved." Sadly, the ship is a ghost ship piloted by two spirits, Death and Life-in-Death, who have to be the\xa0last\xa0people you\'d want to meet on a journey. Everyone on the Mariner\'s ship dies.The wedding guest realizes, "Ah! You\'re a ghost!" But the Mariner says, "Well, actually, I was the only one who didn\'t die." He continues his story: he\'s on a boat with a lot of dead bodies, surrounded by an ocean full of slimy things. Worse, these slimy things are nasty water snakes. But the Mariner escapes his curse by unconsciously blessing the hideous snakes, and the albatross drops off his neck into the ocean.The Mariner falls into a sweet sleep, and it finally rains when he wakes up. A storm strikes up in the distance, and all the dead sailors rise like zombies to pilot the ship. The sailors don\'t actually come back to life. Instead, angels fill their bodies, and another supernatural spirit under the ocean seems to push the boat. The Mariner faints and hears two voices talking about how he killed the albatross and still has more penance to do. These two mysterious voices explain how the ship is moving.After a speedy journey, the ship ends up back in port again. The Mariner sees angels standing next to the bodies of all his crewmates. Then a rescue boat shows up to take him back to shore. The Mariner is happy that a guy called "the hermit" is on the rescue boat. The hermit is in a good mood. All of a sudden there\'s a loud noise, and the Mariner\'s ship sinks. The hermit\'s boat picks up the Mariner.When they get on shore, the Mariner is desperate to tell his story to the hermit. He feels a terrible pain until the story had been told.\xa0In fact, the Mariner says that he still has the same painful need to tell his story, which is why he stopped the Wedding Guest on this occasion. Wrapping up, the Mariner tells the Wedding Guest that he needs to learn how to say his prayers and love other people and things. Then the Mariner leaves, and the Wedding Guest no longer wants to enter the wedding. He goes home and wakes up the next day, as the famous last lines go, "a sadder and a wiser man."\xa0\xa0 | |

reasons of\xa0civil disobidience movement synopsis |
|
Answer» FACTORS LEADING TO CIVIL DISOBEDIANCE MOVEMENT : 1. SOCIAL AND POLITICAL SITUATION : The unrest social and political situation helped in launching of civil disobediance movement. 2. ANTI SIMON COMMISSION : this commission which was formed by british governement o 1927AD to formalize costitution of india which was fully\xa0of british members, due to this indian national congress and other politicaland social organisations rejected the commission and named it as\xa0WHITE COMMISSION. 3. NEHRU REPORT REJECTION : In 1928AD A new constitution was prepared by the commitee which was headed by MOTITLAL NEHRU in calcutta 1928\xa0INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESS demanded british governement to accept NEHRU\'S Report.The main theme of the report was to get the DOMINION STATUS\xa0TO INDIA.and warned and blackmailed british governement,if they not accepted the report, they should be threatened and a CIVIL DISOBEDIANCE movement should be started.This is one of the important cause for the CIVIL DISOBEDIANCE MOVEMENT * LORD IRWIN the governer general of india declared the main objective of the constitutional reform was the to GRANT dominion status for INDIA.after the\xa0declaration GANDHIJI and other leaders sugestesd a round table conference to solve the constitutional crisis and they also requested to release POLITICAL PRISIONORS. 4. NATIONAL CONGRESS started the CIVIL DISOBEDIOANCE MOVEMENT when the bristish governement didn\'t respond to any of their demands POSITIVELY. The Lahore Congress of 1929 authorized the Working Committee to launch a programme of civil disobedience. Gandhiji was invested with full powers to launch the Civil Disobedience movement. He gave his ultimatum to Lord Irwin on 31 January 1930. His ultimatum being ignored the Civil Disobedience was launched.Causes:The Congress declared that if the government did not accept a constitution based on the dominion status within a year, it would adopt ‘Purana Swaraj’ as its goal.In 1929, having a meeting with Ramsay Macdonald, the Prime Minister of England, Lord Irwin returned to India and declared that the object of the British Government was to grant India dominion status. But the Prime Minister under pressure of the conservative leaders, failed to keep his promise. When Gandhiji met Lord Irwin in December 1929, the latter refused to make any commitment regarding dominion status.In utter despair Gandhiji said, ‘I have burnt my boat’. The country became prepared to fight for ‘Purana Swaraj’.According to Amales Tripathi, the main cause of the Civil Disobedience movement was worldwide economic depression during the period 1929-1930. Young leaders of the Congress became impatient for a movement. The revolutionaries were not sitting idle. The organizations of the works and the peasants gathered strength under organizations of the workers and the peasants gathered strength under the leadership of the communists. All these events led Gandhiji to feel the necessity of launching Civil Disobedience movement.Government’s repressive measures:The government adopted severe repressive measured. About 60000 persons passed through jail in course of the movement. The police killed two\xa0prisoners in Hijli Detention Camp.At Bundur, T.N. Naidu was beaten unconscious. The Congress was declared an illegal organization. Punitive taxes were imposed.Significance:According to the wish of Gandhiji, the Congress withdrew the Civil Disobedience in 1934. Though the movement failed but it had great significance.\tThe movement marked an important state in the progress of the freedom struggle.\tThe movement received global attention.\tImports from Britain had fallen considerably.\tThe participation of the Muslims was significant.\tEven middle and upper class Muslim women were active. |

state various functions of political parties\xa0 |
|
Answer» Functions of Political Parties are:1. Political Parties\xa0contest elections. In most democracies, elections are fought mainly among the candidates put up by political parties. In India, top party leaders choose candidates for contesting elections.2. Parties put forward different\xa0policies and programs\xa0and the voters choose from them. In a democracy, a large number of similar opinions have to be grouped together to provide a direction in which policies can be formulated by the governments.3. Parties play a decisive role in\xa0making laws\xa0for a country. Formally, laws are debated and passed in the legislature. But since most of the members belong to a party, they go by the direction of the party leadership.4. Parties\xa0form and run governments. Parties recruit leaders, train them and then make them ministers to run the government in the way they want.5. Those parties that lose in the elections play the\xa0role of opposition\xa0to the ruling parties, by voicing different views and criticising government for its failures or wrong policies. Opposition parties also mobilise opposition to the government.6. Parties\xa0shape public opinion. They raise and highlight issues.
