the automatic system of the duplex mind makes use of a series of mental shortcuts in order to obtain quick information about the likelihood of different outcomes. these are known as <u><em>heuristics</em></u>
The consequences of the discovery were several, both for Europe and for America, and both economic, social, political or cultural.
CONSEQUENCES FOR AMERICA
:
-
The economic consequences for the Americas include the introduction of new crops adapted to the American climate. The best example is coffee. Today the best coffee in the world is that of South America, both Colombian and Brazilian. Wheat was introduced by Spanish friars in Ecuador.
- Among the social consequences arise the most dramatic: mass mortality of Indians (wars, forced labor and new epidemics), introduction of two new races (white and black), and mass racial crossing between Indians and whites: mestizos.
-
Between the political consequences the fall of the pre-Columbian empires takes place: Aztec, Mayan or Inca, between the most outstanding, as well as a whole Indo-American global culture.
-
Among the cultural consequences, European culture is introduced in all areas of life, sometimes incorporating indigenous features. Aboriginal culture is relegated to the religious or family spheres: pre-Hispanic rites are adapted to Catholicism, and the old Quechua, Aymara and Nahuatha languages are preserved, among many others.
CONSEQUENCES FOR EUROPE
:
- Among the economic consequences, it should be noted how American crops adapt to the European climate and revolutionize the eating habits of the Old Continent: potatoes, corn or tomatoes, which saved thousands of people from hunger. The ultramarine trade develops greatly and even exceeds the interior, revolutionizing prices (inflation) and port cities such as Seville or Lisbon.
-
Among the social consequences we must highlight the millions of Europeans who emigrate to American lands for more than four hundred years. Stresses the phenomenon of the Indian: the case of the emigrant in America who left his village with nothing and that returns rich to its population of origin over the years. The European commercial bourgeoisie is enriched by this ultramarine trade and achieves its social ascent, preparing its future "revolution" in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
-
Among the remarkable political consequences is the birth of European empires: Spanish, Portuguese, English, French or Dutch, and wars between them for the dominance of the riches of the American continent and new territories. Ocean piracy is the most significant phenomenon of wars on the high seas, covered by successive metropolitan governments. Also the frequent attacks to American ports on the part of the European navies. In 1494, as soon as America was discovered, the Castilians and the Portuguese were divided over by the signing of the Treaty of Tordesillas, through which Brazil would be part of the Lusitanian possessions to Indonesia, while the Castilians would dominate the rest: from the Philippines to the border with Brazil.
-
Among the cultural consequences say that almost total knowledge of the world was stimulated, with travel and geographical expeditions: first round by Elcano, after the death of Magellan, knowledge of new species and minerals, geodesic dimensions, new cartography, etc.
I believe the answer is: single parenthood and abortion
Single parents would most likely create a massive hindrance in the teenage's future since their time would be divided between pursuing their economic needs and taking care of the kid. Abortion raises an ethical issues among people who see lives started as soon as the fetus is formed.
Answer:
- Paul D's emotions in jail are cold and insensitive.
- The metaphor explains that your emotions are like something inert and that they do not provide any feeling.
Explanation:
"Eighty-six days and done. Life was dead. Paul D beat her butt all day every day until there was not a whimper in her." It is a quote that shows how all the abuses, violent situations and injustice that Paul D suffered faced in prison, left him cold and insensitive to the point that he did not care about the death of life, nor try to save it, on the contrary he wants to be even more violent towards her, hitting life to the point of her, literally losing consciousness and stop moaning.
The metaphor "tobacco tin lodged in his chest", shows how Paul D.'s emotions are non-existent, without interfering in his life. It is as if his emotions were something inert, without movement and expression, like a can of tobacco.
