Abstract
This paper examines several factors that affect the success or failure of social movements in producing social change. These factors include social movement organisation, mobilisation of resources, and protest ideology and tactics. Public opinion has an important mediating role in determining the success or failure of social movements. Reference is made to research on minority influence in social groups and to the kinds of tactics used and claims made by minorities to win resources and exert influence. Evidence is reviewed relating to the effectiveness of demonstrations in achieving changes in government policy and to the effectiveness of militant protest compared with peaceful demonstrations in producing change. Evidence is drawn from research on the impact of the peace movement, specific antiwar movements, and the antinuclear movement.
What kinds of gifts did his subjects give the Great Khan for the New Year? What details does Marco Polo include to show the richness of the Khan’s court?
Answer:
The gifts bestowed to the Great Khan on the eve of New Year by his subjects are gold, silver, precious stones, pieces of white cloth, and great numbers of white horses.
The details included in Marco Polo's account to present the richness of the Khan's court is that his court will present nine times nine the article.
Explanation:
"The Great Khan Celebrates the New Year" is a primary account written by Marco Polo. In his account, he writes about the celebration of the New Year in the courts of the Great Khan. He writes that the subjects of the Great Khan bestowed him with great gifts such as gold, silver, precious stones, pieces of white cloth, and great numbers of white horses.
The details that Marco Polo includes in his account to reveal the richness of the Khan's court is "It is moreover the custom in making presents to the Great Khan, for those who have it in their power to furnish nine times nine of the article of which the present consists. Thus, for instance, if a province sends a present of horses, there are nine times nine, or eighty-one head in the drove. And so also of gold, or of cloth, nine times nine pieces. His Majesty receives at this festival no fewer than a hundred thousand horses."
What is mutually assured destruction? How did it affect the way the USSR and USA interacted with one another?
Answer:
Mutually Assured Destruction, or mutually assured deterrence (MAD), is a military theory that was developed to deter the use of nuclear weapons.
Explanation:
The theory is based on the fact that nuclear weaponry is so devastating that no government wants to use them. Neither side will attack the other with their nuclear weapons because both sides are guaranteed to be totally destroyed in the conflict.
At first, the US air force military wanted to continue to use nuclear weapons to counter additional threats from communist China. But although the two world wars were filled with technological advances that were used without restraint, after Hiroshima and Nagasaki, nuclear weapons came to be both unused and unusable.
The MAD strategy was developed during the Cold War, when the U.S., USSR, held nuclear weapons of such number and strength that they were capable of destroying the other side completely and threatened to do so if attacked. Consequently, the siting of missile bases by both Soviet and Western powers was a great source of friction.
Mutually Assured Destruction is based on fear and cynicism and is one of the most brutally and horribly pragmatic ideas ever put into practice. At one point, the world really did stand opposed to each other with the power to wipe both sides out in a day.

Answer:
The Pony Express
Chapter 1
At A Nation's Crisis
The Pony Express was the first rapid transit and the first fost mail line across the continent from the Missouri River to the Pacific Coast. It was a system
by means of which messages were carried swiftly on horseback across the plains and deserts, and over the mountains of the far West It brought the
Adontic coost and the Pacific slope ten days nearer to each other.
It had a brief existence of only sixteen months and was supplanted by the transcontinental telegraph. Yet it was of the greatest importance in
binding the East and West together at a time when overland travel was slow and cumbersome, and when a great national crisis made the rapid
communication of news between these sections an imperative necessity.
The Pony Express marked the highest development in overland travel prior to the coming of the Pacific railroad, which it preceded nine years.
It, in fact, proved the feasibility of a transcontinental road and demonstrated that such a line could be built and operated continuously the year
around-a feat that had always been regarded as impossible.
The operation of the Pony Express was a supreme achievement of physical endurance on the part of man and his ever faithful companion, the
horse. The history of this organization should be a lasting monument to the physical sacrifice of man and beast in an effort to accomplish
something worthwhile. Its history should be an enduring tribute to American courage and American organizing genius.

Which of the following describes a major victory by the women's rights movement during the early 1960s? A. State legislatures ratified the Equal Rights Amendmentproviding a constitutional guarantee of equality between male and female citizens . B. Congress extended legal protections against gender discrimination by incorporating women into the Civil Rights Act of 1964. National Organization of Women was recognized as the first all-female labor union and won equal pay guarantees from many large corporations . D. President Kennedy appointed the first female justice to the Supreme Court and promised to appoint at least one additional female justice
Answer:
B
Explanation:
It was during that debate that he introduced, on February 8, 1964, the sex amendment. The amendment was a one-word addition, sex, to Title VII of the bill, which prohibited employers from discriminating on the basis of ace, color, religion, or national origin.
John F Kennedy only appointed two men to the supreme court.
The equal rights Amendment was in the 1970's and not all states have ratified it.
This was a super confusing question because of how vague the answer choices were. I mean yes women were eventually included in the civil rights act, but it didn't protect women in education. And the wage gap still existed after the equal pay guarantees.
Answer:
B. Congress extended legal protections against gender discrimination by incorporating women into the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

Because of their isolation, Spanish settlers in California, or ___, felt little connection to their government.
Fill in the blank plz
Answer: Californios
Explanation:
Californios are the Spanish-American descendants of Spanish settlers and soldiers who undertook expeditions to the Northern parts of California in order to claim it for Spain. After they did so, they set up Presidios and spread Catholicism.
They were however, quite isolated from the Spanish government in Mexico and so felt very little connection to them. The government for their part, might not have been very interested in the Californios due to the distance from Mexico city and the little resources California brought in at the time.
