Answer:

C. underwriters

Explanation:

Underwriting refers to  one of the most key aspects in the finance industry where an individual or an organization (underwriter) takes the associated risks with a project, investment, or loan for a fee. An underwriter is any entity that assesses and accepts the risk of payment from another entity.

galben [10]

In 1996, Doctor George Stanton, who belonged to the Department of State, designed and described thoroughly the "Eight Stages of Genocide." He did this in order to detect the stages and prevent genocide from happening.

During Adolf Hitler´s Nazi regime, all types of bad propaganda such as cartoons and caricatures were reported in local newspapers with the aim of  portraying Jews as stingy,selfish,corrupt and subhuman. These actions are part of the stage of dehumanization. The main purpose of this phase is to describe a group of people as animals,disease or something that is not worth living. In addition, the government who is exerting this power believes it has the right to violate every human right of the targeted people by ,as the Nazis did, launching negative propaganda campaigns.
