1. The Romans believed that all their wars were just wars." Do you think they were? Do you think
that any wars can be considered just? Why or why not? *

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

The just war theory is a largely Christian philosophy that attempts to reconcile three things:

taking human life is seriously wrong

states have a duty to defend their citizens, and defend justice

protecting innocent human life and defending important moral values sometimes requires willingness to use force and violence

The theory specifies conditions for judging if it is just to go to war, and conditions for how the war should be fought.

Although it was extensively developed by Christian theologians, it can be used by people of every faith and none.

Purpose

The aim of Just War Theory is to provide a guide to the right way for states to act in potential conflict situations. It only applies to states, and not to individuals (although an individual can use the theory to help them decide whether it is morally right to take part in a particular war).

Just War Theory provides a useful framework for individuals and political groups to use for their discussions of possible wars.

The theory is not intended to justify wars but to prevent them, by showing that going to war except in certain limited circumstances is wrong, and thus motivate states to find other ways of resolving conflicts.

'Just', or merely 'permissible'?

The doctrine of the Just War can deceive a person into thinking that because a war is just, it's actually a good thing.

But behind contemporary war theory lies the idea that war is always bad. A just war is permissible because it's a lesser evil, but it's still an evil.

Origins

The principles of a Just War originated with classical Greek and Roman philosophers like Plato and Cicero and were added to by Christian theologians like Augustine and Thomas Aquinas.

Elements

There are two parts to Just War theory, both with Latin names:

Jus ad bellum: the conditions under which the use of military force is justified.

Jus in bello: how to conduct a war in an ethical manner.

A war is only a Just War if it is both justified, and carried out in the right way. Some wars fought for noble causes have been rendered unjust because of the way in which they were fought.

How did environment and geography determine migration and hunting patterns for pre-Columbian societies?

Answers

Answer:

Before Europeans arrived in North America, Native American groups developed into distinct and complex societies in response to the unique environments they inhabited.

Explanation:

During the Pre-Columbian era, the American migrant groups had structured themselves into unique and complex patterns of livelihood. Migration was done to seek better life and income opportunities.

What are the migrant groups?

Migrant groups are such groups who perform mass immigration to other parts of the world voluntarily due to the unfavorable living conditions in their own societies.

During the pre-Columbian era, the migrant groups preferred immigrating to the regions which were nearer to natural habitation and the geographical conditions were also suitable for the purpose of livelihood.

Hence, it can be stated that the migrant groups chose suitable geographical conditions and habituated societies for the purpose of immigration during the pre-Columbia era.

Answers

Answer: Korematsu was eventually overturned.

Explanation:

After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the president used his powers in the country and targeted a large number of American Japanese as a potential threat. Many of these people have been ultimately relocated from their homes to certain locations under strict government supervision. Many ignored these orders from the United States authorities. The Japanese of American descent, Korematsu, was one of those people. After his arrest, he was sentenced to five years probation for violating government orders.

What are three reasons and/or motivations for European exploration in the 15th and 16th centuries?

Answers

Answer: The aim to establish a religion, a goal of opening new trading routes, and an aim to uncover valuable items such as gold.

Explanation:

One of the main motivations for exploration from European countries during this time period was in fact to open up new trade routes.  Back then they did not have many of the luxuries that we have today which allow for fast travel of goods so trading routes were pivotal to the survival and success of civilizations back then.  It allowed different civilizations to meet together to barter and trade for goods that were not available in their region.  These explorations also hoped to uncover gold and other fine items that could be used for royalty or as bartering tokens to increase a nations wealth.  Lastly, Europeans who were vastly Christian aimed to spread their religion to other cultures who lived in other lands.

Now, he has had it with the current state of politics. He gathers his group of followers, and they head to downtown Phoenix to make their grievances known. Peter's followers are generally law-abiding, but there are a few in there who have been arrested after turning peaceful protest into vandalism.After about two hours of chanting and marching, Peter yells, "Alright, we've done the peaceful thing long enough. Now let's take some real action! Let's start breaking some windows now!"Phoenix Police immediately arrest him.Meantime, Rachel Reporter is in the KPHO-TV newsroom and gets a call from a police source. The source tells Rachel to take a look at the police report from Peter's arrest. Rachel heads down to the Phoenix Police Records Department and gets a copy of the police report. In it, the arresting officer writes, "This is the same Peter Protester who was convicted of domestic terrorism in 2010."Rachel believes she has a real scoop on her hands and calls for a live truck to meet her at the scene of the protest. Rachel's live report includes the news of today's arrest. She also quotes the police report, saying Peter was convicted of domestic terrorism in 2010."
