You must first enable the government to control the governed and in the next place oblige it control itself was written by?
James Madison
What is the main purpose a government is serving?
AnswerThe main purpose of a government is to control the activities and resources of a given place. Depending on the specific government, that control can be to the benefit of its citizens or to the detriment of its citizens. Most governments fall somewhere in between. A government can be the leadership of a tribal community or the power structure of China.The most common form of controlling the activities of a people and a place is to enact and administer laws and regulations. Other activities may include (but are not limited to) administering the money; controlling both natural and produced resources; providing an armed force(s); a responsibility for the infrastructure of that place (water, roads, public facilities, etc.); some form of educational system; and providing a system and manpower to enforce its laws (which in some cases can be their armed force).Answer (restated)Any government exists to maintain an orderly society for its citizens. It does this by creating rules, laws, and legal systems to enable and regulate their interactions, and how they make use of the resources of the society.
How did the federalists and anti-federalists settle their differences?
The Federalists wished to grant some definite power to the new American government, which would enable them to manage their own affairs without having to beg the various states to go along. The anti-Federalists feared that the government might use its powers to eliminate the liberties of the people. They finally agreed on a Bill of Rights, incorporated into the Constitution itself. The Federalists had protested that since the Constitution didn't give the Federal government power to perform some actions, that the government wouldn't be able to do that; the anti-Federalists wanted explicit guarantees. So the Anti-federalists gained specific rights for the people, rights that the Federalists had said were never in any danger. History has proven that the Anti-Federalists were correct, and the Federalists were naive in the extreme; government ALWAYS gathers more powers than its founders had intended.
Why did federal government moved an Inuit community to ellesmere island?
The relocation has been a source of controversy: on one hand being described as a humanitarian gesture to save the lives of starving native people and enable them to continue a subsistence lifestyle; and on the other hand, said to be a forced migration instigated by the federal government to assert its sovereignty in the Far North by the use of "human flagpoles", in light of both the Cold War and the disputed territorial claims to the Arctic archipelago. Both sides acknowledge that the relocated Inuit were not given sufficient support to prevent extreme privation during their first years after the move.
Which of these political views would have been supported by the federalist party in the early 1800?
The Federalists were those people who supported the new Constitution of the United States. They believed in a strong national government with powers over the states. They did not support the states' rights beliefs of the followers of Thomas Jefferson. They favored protective tariffs to enable American industry to develop, favored collection of taxes from the states and favored a strong military to protect the nation.
