The global movement toward democracy, spurred in part by the ending of the cold war, has created opportunities for democratization not only in Europe and the former Soviet Union, but also in Africa.
This book is based on workshops held in Benin, Ethiopia, and Namibia to better understand the dynamics of contemporary democratic movements in Africa. Key issues in the democratization process range from its institutional and political requirements to specific problems such as ethnic conflict, corruption, and role of donors in promoting democracy.
By focusing on the opinion and views of African intellectuals, academics, writers, and political activists and observers, the book provides a unique perspective regarding the dynamics and problems of democratization in Africa.
i HOPE IT'S HELP please mark in brain listWhich two items explain why the Articles of Confederation were considered weak? It did not permit Congress to conduct foreign affairs. It gave too much power to the states. It provided for a very strong federal government. It did not allow Congress to issue currency. Reset Next
Answer:
It gave too much power to the states. It did not allow Congress to issue currency.Explanation:
When the framers of the Articles of Confederation designed it, they did not want a Federal government that would be too powerful. They therefore gave Congress reduced powers that would keep it subservient to states.
The states therefore had too much power. They could negotiate trade deals with each other and decided the amount of taxes they would give the Federal government. They could also issue their own currency which meant that this was another power that Congress did not have.

Explanation:
Henry the Navigator, Portuguese Henrique o Navegador, byname of Henrique, infante (prince) de Portugal, duque (duke) de Viseu, senhor (lord) da Covilhã, (born March 4, 1394, Porto, Portugal—died November 13, 1460, Vila do Infante, near Sagres), Portuguese prince noted for his patronage of voyages of discovery among the Madeira Islands and along the western coast of Africa. The epithet Navigator, applied to him by the English (though seldom by Portuguese writers), is a misnomer, as he himself never embarked on any exploratory voyages.
Philippa of Lancaster, the daughter of John of Gaunt of England. Henry and his older brothers, the princes Duarte (Edward) and Pedro, were educated under the supervision of their parents. Henry emerged with pronounced tastes for chivalric romance and astrological literature, as well as with ambitions to take part in military campaigns and, if possible, win a kingdom for himself.
The starting point of Henry’s career was the capture of the Moroccan city of Ceuta in 1415. According to Henry’s enthusiastic biographer, Gomes Eanes de Zurara, the three princes persuaded their still-vigorous father to undertake a campaign that would enable them to win their knightly spurs in genuine combat instead of in the mock warfare of a tournament. King John consented and, with Ceuta in mind, began military preparations, meanwhile spreading rumours of another destination, in order to lull the Moroccan city into a feeling of false security.

Early life
Henry was the third son of King John I and Philippa of Lancaster, the daughter of John of Gaunt of England. Henry and his older brothers, the princes Duarte (Edward) and Pedro, were educated under the supervision of their parents. Henry emerged with pronounced tastes for chivalric romance and astrological literature, as well as with ambitions to take part in military campaigns and, if possible, win a kingdom for himself.
The starting point of Henry’s career was the capture of the Moroccan city of Ceuta in 1415. According to Henry’s enthusiastic biographer, Gomes Eanes de Zurara, the three princes persuaded their still-vigorous father to undertake a campaign that would enable them to win their knightly spurs in genuine combat instead of in the mock warfare of a tournament. King John consented and, with Ceuta in mind, began military preparations, meanwhile spreading rumours of another destination, in order to lull the Moroccan city into a feeling of false security.
Although a plague swept Portugal and claimed the queen as a victim, the army sailed in July 1415. King John found Ceuta unprepared, as he had hoped, and its capture unexpectedly easy. Though Zurara later claimed the principal role in the victory for Henry, it would seem that the experienced soldier-king actually directed the operation. That Henry distinguished himself, however, is indicated by his immediate appointment as the king’s lieutenant for Ceuta, which did not require his permanent residence there or confer civil authority or administrative responsibilities but did oblige him to see that the city was adequately defended

What was the Cold War and how did they United States fight and win it? Respond in 2-3 paragraphs.
Answer:
Soldiers of the Soviet Union and the United States did not do battle directly during the Cold War. ... But the two superpowers continually antagonized each other through political maneuvering, military coalitions, espionage, propaganda, arms buildups, economic aid, and proxy wars between other nations.
The Cold War was the tense relationship between the United States (and its allies), and the Soviet Union (the USSR and its allies) between the end of World War II and the fall of the Soviet Union. It is called the "Cold" War because the US and the USSR never actually fought each other directly.
In June 1950, the first military action of the Cold War began when the Soviet-backed North Korean People's Army invaded its pro-Western neighbor to the south. Many American officials feared this was the first step in a communist campaign to take over the world and deemed that nonintervention was not an option.

Answer:
Their deep divisions could lead to violence
Explanation:
The events of 1968 show deep divisions regarding Americans' views on politics. Many Americans wanted to maintain peace during the 1960s and opposed wars. As the Vietnam issue came up, America decided to interfere based on the Dinamo effect and to protect other Asian countries from converting into communism. There was a division based on ideas in America as some opposed against it while others supported it (the government). Often violence and marches were held by students on campuses and in Washington to show their protest against the government decision.

3. What information can a business owner obtain from a demand schedule and a demand curve?
Answer:
How much consumers are willing to buy of a product at various possible prices.
Explanation:
In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply.
Demand can be defined as the total amount of goods or services that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a given price.
The Law of Demand states that quantity of goods or services demanded varies inversely with their price, other things constant or being equal. Thus, the smaller the quantity of goods or services demanded, the higher the price and vice-versa.
An aggregate demand curve gives a negative relationship between the aggregate price level for goods or services and the quantity of aggregate output demanded in an economy at a specific period of time.
Hence, the information a business owner can obtain from a demand schedule and a demand curve is the quantity or amount of goods consumers are willing to buy at various possible prices.
What best describes the process of communication between brain cells
Neurotransmitters are specialized molecules that neurons use to communicate with one another. Neurotransmitters function similarly to chemical words in that they "message" one neuron to another.
What do you mean by neuron?An electrically excitable cell known as a neuron, neurone, or nerve cell communicates with other cells through specialized connections known as synapses. With the exception of sponges and placozoa, the neuron is the primary element of nervous tissue in all animals. Plants and fungus are examples of non-animals that lack nerve cells.
In general, three types of neurons are distinguished by their functions. Signals are sent to the spinal cord or brain by sensory neurons in response to stimuli like touch, sound, or light that influence the cells of the sensory organs.
In order to control everything from muscular contractions to glandular production, motor neurons receive instructions from the brain and spinal cord.
Within the same region of the brain or spinal cord, interneurons link one neuron to another. The term "neural circuit" refers to the arrangement of several neurons.
Dendrites, an axon, and a cell body make up a normal neuron. The axon and dendrites are filaments extending from the soma, which is a compact structure. Typically, dendrites branch out widely and reach a few hundred micrometers from the soma.
