Differencr between liberals and conservatives |
| Answer» Liberals wanted a nation which tolerated all religions.Liberals also opposed the uncontrolled power of dynastic rulers. They wanted to safeguard the rights of individuals against governments. They argued for a representative, elected parliamentary government, subject to laws interpreted by a well-trained judiciary that was independent of rulers and officials. However, they were not ‘democrats’. They did not believe in universal adult franchise, that is, the right of every citizen to vote. They felt men of property mainly should have the vote. They also did not want the vote for women.Conservatives were opposed to radicals and liberals. After the French Revolution, however, even conservatives had opened their minds to the need for change. Earlier, in the eighteenth century, conservatives had been generally opposed to the idea of change. By the nineteenth century, they accepted that some change was inevitable but believed that the past had to be respected and change had to be brought about through a slow process. | |

Find out why an Indian farmer does not want his son to become a farmer |
|
Answer» An Indian farmer will not want his son to become a farmer because \xa0(a)\xa0The share of agriculture in India\'s GDP has been declining since 1950 and so farming has a bleak future in terms of income from it in future. \xa0(b)\xa0Land reform laws have been enacted more than 40 years ago, but their implementation is inadequate, resulting in no improvement in the condition of small farmers. (c)\xa0Exploitation by middlemen continues, resulting in farmers not getting a remunerative price for their produce. (d)\xa0Irrigation infrastructure is still inadequate in many parts of the country, which makes the farmers dependent on the vagaries of the weather. A bad monsoon can spell doom for the crop.\xa0 Farmer does not want his son to become a farmer because there are several reasons:- ◉ They want their sons to be educated and organised in a specific sector rather than being a farmer because farmers have to face many financial problems than any other organised sector. ◉ Farmers do not have proper facilities like water facilities, electricity facilities etc to grow their crops. ◉ Farmers usually face financial problems due which sometimes they even die.

The Russian Social Democratic Workers Party was founded in 1898 by socialists, who respected Marxist ideas. But because of government policies, it had to operate secretly as an illegal organisation.

Explain land use patter in India and why hasthe land under forest nit increased much since 1960-61 |
| Answer» Land resources in India are primarily divided into agricultural land, forest land, land meant for pasture and grazing, and waste land. Waste land includes rocky, arid and desert areas, and land used for other non-agricultural purposes such as housing, roads and industry. According to the recent data, about 54% of the total land area is cultivable or fallow, 22.5% is covered by forests, and 3.45% is used for grazing. The rest is waste land, with traces of miscellaneous cultivation.The land under forest has not increased since 1960–61 because in the post-independence\xa0era demand for more land to expand agriculture, mainly after Green Revolution,\xa0developmental works and infrastructural facilities, led to clearance of forests areas. Industrialization and urbanization also decreased the forest area.\xa0Thus, land under forest has increased by only about 4% since 1960-61. | |

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.

When did nationalism spread in the country ? |
|
Answer» The early emergence of a popular patriotic nationalism took place in the mid-18th century, and was actively promoted by the British government and by the writers and intellectuals of the time. National symbols, anthems, myths, flags and narratives were assiduously constructed by nationalists and widely adopted. The rise of nationalism in Europe initiated with the Spring of Nations in 1848. According to Leon-Baradat, nationalism calls on people to identify with the interests of their national group and to support the creation of a state – a nation-state – to support those interests. Nationalism spread in a country when people begins to believe that they are all part of the same nation, when they discover some unity that bounds them together.I think it\'s hopeful |
