Why does the host believe that the colonists had really been

History

Dafna1 [17]2 years ago

People believed that the colonists had really been independent prior to the Declaration of Independence because of the practices of salutary neglect.

Salutary neglect was practiced by Great Britain and put onto the colonies. Although the name sounds bad, it was a good type of neglect. Great Britain did not enforce any trade laws or unfair laws onto the colonists, they pretty much let them do their own thing. As long as the colonists were making Great Britain wealthier, they didn't care and left them alone.

This all changed when the French and Indian War ended. Great Britain needed a way to pay for the very expensive war and they were using their troops to protect the colonists. This was when Great Britain got rid of salutary neglect and started to tax the colonists, which the colonists opposed and started the saying, "taxation without representation."

Even after all of this, some people didn't know if the colonists could be independent from Great Britain and thrive on their own, even though they had already been independent before.

NARA [144]

The illegal voting would have been stopped or a least greatly reduced with the implementation of proper voter registration and state IDs. Of course, with the rudimentary technology of the era, falsification of ID documents would have been relatively easier than it is today. However IDs and voter registration would have presented an additional obstacle to border ruffians.

The violence would only have been stopped by the concourse of a national guard, a state police and civil deputies from the state protecting voter, voting locations and the transportation of ballots.

What problems do Mchanagma and Verdirame see with the current state of human rights in the international system in their article
sineoko [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Jacob Mchangama and Guglielmo Verdirame, in their article “The Danger of Human Rights Proliferation,” defend liberty by the motto of “less are more.”

We are asserting more and more rights without checking out the implementation of previous rights. Asserting more rights and convincing the states to add them in treaties would not lead to more excellent protection of human rights.

The proliferation of rights is more harmful to humans because human rights are not protected fully as we are expanding the number of rights in treaties.

They argued that: “If human rights were a currency, its value would be free fall……..this currency is  buy cover for dictatorships ”

Rights of human language have been used to restrict rights. Freedom of religion and expression was a foundation of human rights, but states also restricted those rights in the name of human rights.

To sum up, the proliferation of human rights does not ensure that the rights of humans are being secured. States are not always concerned directly with the welfare of humans but to restrict those rights more. So the proliferation of rights is not fruitful but a dangerous thing.
