Answer: To guard against the influence of factions while preserving liberty.
Explanation: After having presented the problems brought about by the existence of factions in democracy, Madison argues that both forbidding factions would go against liberty and preventing them from coming into existence (by enforcing absolute equality) is impossible. The solution he proposes is to let factions be and only control their effects to avoid sinister interests from harming the population.
Answer: The Elenchus
Explanation: Socrates' method of philosophy is most commonly known as The Elenchus or the dialectical method. Knowledge gained from this method was considered by Aristotle to be 'dialectical knowledge'. Dialectical knowledge was said to form the boundary between the theoretical and the practical aspects of knowledge.
The method of the Elenchus was (and still is, I assume), the following:
1. Raise the most important question (a kind of 'theory' or later 'thesis').
2. Investigate the question thoroughly to make sure that the very best answer is reached, by raising further questions, answering each of them ("they being smaller questions, it will be easier to answer them" --- paraphrasing Plato)
3. At the conclusion of the inquiry, to declare if the problem is solved, and if so, in what way of definition.
4. To continue philosophizing.
However, in Athens, Socrates' particular application of the Elenchus earned him the reputation of a 'gadfly' --- someone who perhaps didn't have the best good in mind (although, according to Plato, Socrates was always a helpful person, and didn't ask for any payments).
The following are the correct answers:
- <span>disbelieving that cyberbullying causes serious harm
- </span><span>convincing others that cyberbullying is harmless
- </span><span>refusing to take responsibility to stop cyberbullying
- </span><span>using technology to participate in cyberbullying
Cyberbullying can be a serious problem if not treated on time; we should try and speak up and convince others that this is something that should be prevented so as to avoid many accidents that commonly occur as a result of any type of bullying, cyber included. </span>
On Plato, the answer is *There will be time, there will be time. To prepare a face to meet the faces you meet.* and *They will say: "How his hair is growing thin!"etc...*
This is because he is imagining what they are going to say to him, giving off a feeling of self-doubt.
