Will Russia revert back to the Soviet Union?
It is unlikely that Russia will revert back to the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union dissolved in 1991, and Russia has since transitioned to a democratic system. While there may be some nostalgia for the Soviet era, the current political and social landscape in Russia suggests that a return to the Soviet Union is not a realistic possibility.
How did politics effect the failure of reconstruction?
Politics played a major role in the Reconstruction acts following the end of the US Civil War. What can be called "failed reconstruction" was due to Radical Republicans and others in the North who sought to "punish" the South for rebelling from the Union and causing the Civil War.
What were the political problems of the readmission of the southern states after the civil war?
The Union had spent the entire war claiming that the Confederate States had never left the Union. Now the Confederate States were forced to apply for "readmission", which would hardly have been necessary if the Union's theory of the war was correct. Several southern states relatively quickly satisfied requirements and resumed a state government, before Radical Reconstruction was begun, and these then had usually to redraft their state constitutions to suit the radicals. All southern states were required to "ratify" the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution as the price of readmission. A number of states in the south had already considered and rejected these amendments. It takes three fourths of the states ratifying an amendment for it to become effective as law. Since the north wanted to pretend the southern states had never left, they needed the southern "ratifications" for these amendments to become effective. So the southern states were forced to "ratify" them with a gun to their heads, as the price of being able to "resume" having their own state governments and ending their military occupation. The southern states were forced to allow the freed slaves to vote, something free blacks in the north could not do. White southerners were not allowed to vote if they had anything to do with the Confederacy. Since this was practically every man in the south, this meant the freed slaves could vote but white people could not. This bred a great deal of resentment in white southerners, and helped fuel the rise of the Klan. After the Republicans stole the election of 1876 and agreed to withdraw the last of the military occupation of the south if the Democrats would shut up about it, then the white southerners returned to power and instituted "Jim Crow" laws and "black codes", to strip away the rights recently given to freed slaves.
When was Teamsters for a Democratic Union created?
Teamsters for a Democratic Union (TDU) was founded in 1976 by dissatisfied members of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters in the United States to advocate for more democratic processes and transparency within the union.
Why did the north have a political leadership advantage over the south during the civil war?
The North's political situation at the start of the US Civil War and throughout the conflict can be described as different than the South's however, the term of advantage does not apply. The South knew that it wanted its independence. Many in the North were constantly at odds with the Lincoln administration. Here are a list of political problems the North faced:* Lincoln was constantly under assault from the Radical wing of the Republican Party;* It was the Radicals that were behind the Congressional Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War;* George B. McClellan was outspoken against the policies of Lincoln & his cabinet;* Lincoln's cabinet was not 100% in support for the emancipation Proclamation;* The talk of a military coup was present up until the time of General Joseph Hooker who discussed a military dictatorship with Lincoln;* The Union's premier army, the Army of the Potomac changed commanders almost too many times. It was anybody's guess when the next change would come;* Lincoln's favorite general was known to be close to being an alcoholic;* The largest civilian insurrection in US history occurred in New York City, the "draft riots";* Lincoln faced an ever growing "peace movement';* The slave holding border states were an embarrassment to the Union's and slavery;* Lincoln was not sure if he would be the Republican nominee in 1864;* The threat of a British peace initiative was omni-present; and* The governor of Indiana was against the 1863 emancipation.The political problems list is a long one. The ones mentioned, however, are a sampling of the important ones.The South's political problems paled against those of the North.
