Rationalism is a philosophy that regards reason as the main source of knowledge for humans. It also argues that reason is the main test of knowledge. This view of the world places more emphasis on the mind and the logic it follows than on empirical evidence or the senses.

This philosophical view is closely related to the Enlightenment. The Enlightenment was a philosophical, scientific and artistic movement that placed great importance on reason. It argued that reason was the main way to discover the world that humans should use, and it discouraged traditional methods such as religion and mythology.

Rudiy27
The likelihood would be lower because the supreme court decision effectively reduced the impact that smaller rural communities had on representation in the house of representatives in the national level. This is because the districts had to be drawn according to the population in order to make all districts equal in population size which resulted in smaller rural areas getting swept away by larger communities since they would become parts of their districts.

The Federalists would agree with which of the following items in regard to the structure of the American government?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Group 2

Explanation:

Federalists were individuals who were in favor of a stronger federal (aka central) government. Federalists believed that the US needed a stronger federal government after the Articles of Confederation, America's first constitution,  were a failure. The Articles of Confederation gave almost no real power to the federal government. This resulted in several different problems.

This is why the federalists favored a stronger federal government that had the ability to tax, regulate trade between states, and negotiate deals with other nations.

What does the debate between Madison and Jefferson tell us about the importance of compromise?
Irina-Kira [14]
One of the main things that the debate between Madison and Jefferson tells us about the importance of compromise is that it is very rare and sometimes impossible for two people to see "eye to eye" on issues in politics--making compromise absolutely essential if you want to get things done.
