Strongly. It was mainly United Nations sanctions and condemnations that ended the Apartheid.
What was the effect of the condemnations of 1210-1277?
The Condemnations of 1210 to 1277 allowed scientists to pursue science empirically. With the beginnings of the university system, standards on education were introduced to Europe. This happened in the 11th and 12th centuries. In the 12th century, texts of ancient and medieval scientific words were translated into Latin and made available. These included both ancient Greek texts and Arabic. For whatever reason, the universities and their professors decided that they were going to teach strict conformance to Aristotelian science. The implications of strict Aristotelian science included a halt to scientific advancement beyond what Aristotle knew, and that Aristotle was infallible. The second of these was found unacceptable by the Church, which began investigating into what to do about the situation. The Condemnations of 1210 to 1277 condemned the teaching that Aristotle was infallible. This freed scientists to go beyond Aristotle. There are historians who believe this was the beginning of modern science.
Why do you think many Greeks condemned the ideas of the sophists?
In Ancient Greece, the sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching aretê - excellence, or virtue - predominately to young statesmen and nobility. The practice of charging money for education, and providing wisdom only to those who can pay, led to the condemnations made by Plato See the link below for the source
Why was technology advance often seen as a threat to medieval Europe?
After studying the question of medieval technology for some time, I cannot conclude that technological advance was seen as a threat in medieval Europe. The advancements of technology of the time were all quite practical, and I cannot think of a single one that could be considered as a comment on cosmology or religion. They included such things as new wind mills, the horse shoe, the European style wheelbarrow, the chimney and fireplace, new kinds of cranes and so on. Very valuable, but hardly the sort of thing a political or religious leader would be alarmed about. There is an interesting example in this regard, which was a series of actions taken by the Church, called the Condemnations of 1210-1277. The thing that was being condemned was not technology, but quite the reverse. The thing being condemned was a teaching in certain universities to the effect that Aristotle was always right. This teaching had the effect of blocking advancement because anything new was not in Aristotle's writing, and therefore wrong in some way. The effect of the condemnations was to free medieval thinkers from the bonds of scholasticism created by professors in the universities. There are historians who regard the condemnations of 1210-1277 as the action that marked the beginning of modern science. There is a link below.
Who restricted science in the Middle Ages?
The restriction on science in the Middle Ages came from the universities and professors, who wanted to teach strict conformance to Aristotelian science. In essence, this meant Aristotle was infallible. From the point of view real science, this was a problem because it meant progress was impossible. The Church was not happy with this for a number of reasons. While its position on Islamic science had been neutral because Islamic science had no theological implications and was useful, the idea that Aristotle was infallible did not sit well on theologians. The Church took action to free science from the restrictions imposed by the universities with the Condemnations of 1210 to 1277, which made the teaching that Aristotle was infallible a heresy. There have been historians who called the Condemnations of 1277 the birth of modern science. See links provided below.

Are clams good to eat from the James river?
I had the same question and this is the answer I received from the Virginia Department of Health: Although there are no current emergency closures at this time for the James River there are current condemnation for the James and its tributaries that exist. Emergency closures are reserved for events such as heavy rainfall, sewage/sewer bypasses and other temporary events that can effect water quality. The current condemnations can be found on the web page and are accompanied by maps. (http://www.vdh.Virginia.gov/EnvironmentalHealth/Shellfish/closureSurvey/index.htm) Current condemnations are based on bacteria (fecal coliform )levels in the water samples. We do send clam samples to the state lab couple times a year for heavy metal testing but do not do this routinely. Clams would be considered safe from any area that is currently open by the VMRC and that is not in a condemned area. There is always a risk in eating shellfish,even from open areas, if eaten raw or undercooked. .

What did science in the middle ages focus on?
1st Answer:Nothing. There was no science in the middle ages. The Catholic church discouraged scientific thought and experiment. Most of science was made up of superstition.2nd Answer:Medieval science was very practical. It was focused on solutions to practical problems, and the Church left it alone until the Renaissance, when it started dealing with more cosmological issues.Engineering and architecture developed a lot during the Middle Ages, as can be seen by anyone who visits Europe and looks to see what is there. The Hagia Sophia in Constantinople (now Istanbul) is an example of architecture of the Early Middle Ages, and the Cathedrals of Notre Dame in Paris and Canterbury in England are examples of the Gothic architecture if the High Middle Ages. But examples of architectural development are visible in nearly every village of Western Europe.Alchemy has a reputation of having the goal of transmutation of base metals into gold, (which would have been very practical if they could have achieved it). Nevertheless, alchemists did provide important chemical resources to people of other professions, ranging from the medical profession to people who used chemicals for such purposes as tanning leather or making gunpowder.Inventions of the Middle Ages were important and remain so. The horse collar, heavy plow, grinding wheel, fireplace and chimney, stirrups, arched saddle, firearm, and printing press were all medieval inventions.There was a time in the Middle Ages when scholars, and university professors, especially at the University of Paris, attempted to restrict teaching of science to Aristotle's teachings on the subject, thus preventing any sort of progress. Fortunately, the Church countered this with a series of condemnations culminating in the Condemnations of 1277, which made it heresy to insist that Aristotle was always right on the subject. This freed science to the point that some historians regard it as the beginning of modern science.There is a links below to articles on medieval technology and science, and on the Condemnations of 1210 to 1277.
