Part II: Application and Critical Thinking (30 points)

7. Imagine a correspondence between Thomas Hobbes and John Locke. First, write a letter from

Hobbes to Locke in which Hobbes argues that absolute monarchy is the ideal form of government. Then

write a second letter from the perspective of John Locke in which he answers and refutes Hobbes's

argument.

Even though both Hobbes and Locke lived during the 17th century and would not have been aware of the

enlightened despots of the 18th century, be sure to mention how Hobbes and Locke might have felt

about the possibility of these rulers. Use specific historical evidence to support your claims. (15 points)

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is detailed in the explanation;

Explanation:

Dear Sir, Jhon Locke;

With my sincere words I do not intend to change his ideals of reform but I do intend to be heard on the basis of the experience of the human being and what characterizes him, it is well known that the man without law is an irrational being incapable of restraining his impulses and actions Likewise, ambition, greed for power causes divisions and doubts to be sown and the fracture of power occurs, that is why an absolute monarchy where absolute power and responsibility falls on only that supreme being already chosen of impartial way to impartially govern all kinds of people without any preference to either side, for me it is and surely being the ideal form of government.

Respected Sir; Thomas hobbe :

Considering his arguments, I find a heartfelt contradiction; if the power corrupts the human being who by natural tendency is given to ambition and greed; How can absolute power and responsibility be left to govern and educate an entire people in the hands of one man?

Really, in an absolute monarchy there is no freedom, there is no democracy, we need to work as a team to help each other to balance power, although it is true that two heads think more than one, being in a position of responsibility and knowing that we have that answering for our acts before the laws or branches of power causes us to be more cautious when making decisions that could affect our nation, our actions have consequences and a bad control of absolute power undoubtedly brings total chaos.

8. What exports dominated international markets?

Answers

Answer:

Exports are incredibly important to modern economies because they offer people and firms many more markets for their goods. One of the core functions of diplomacy and foreign policy between governments is to foster economic trade, encouraging exports and imports for the benefit of all trading parties.

According to research firm Statista, in 2017, the world’s largest exporting countries (in terms of dollars) were China, the United States, Germany, Japan, and The Netherlands. China posted exports of approximately $2.3 trillion in goods, primarily electronic equipment, and machinery. The United States exported approximately $1.5 trillion, primarily capital goods. Germany's exports, which come to approximately $1.4 trillion, were dominated by motor vehicles—as were Japan's, which totaled approximately $698 billion. Finally, The Netherlands had exports of approximately $652 billion.

Explanation:

think about the government of the early and late Roman Republic and also that of the Roman Empire. How were
these governments the same? How were they different? Keeping in mind your previous answers, write one paragraph
that describes the similarities and differences of the republic and empire's governments (100-150 words).
PE

Answers

Answer:

These governments were similar in that, as the Republic expanded and acquired new territories far from Rome, governors were appointed to rule, for brief periods of time (usually a few years) in those regions. There were governors for Hispania, Gaul, Illyria, and so on. This system was kept in place by the Roman Empire.

They were different in that, during the Roman Republic, it was the Senate who appointed the executive leaders of the country: the consuls, and these consuls had more limited powers, and only ruled for a few years. During the Empire, this changed, and emperors became absolute rulers for life.

Answer:

In the early years of the Roman Republic, elected leaders ruled in three government bodies: the consul, the Senate, and the Assembly. This government  had a system of checks and balances in place to keep leaders from abusing power. Later the republic was ruled by three men who formed a triumvirate. In contrast, the Roman Empire had a single emperor: Augustus and later others. These leaders were all-powerful and were not elected to power.

One similiarty of both governments is that they had a Senate. The territory of Rome also expanded through military invasions under both goverments. And both governments struggled to raise enough money through taxes
