Most of the Popes of the Renaissance period (1450-1600) were very 'worldly' (that is rich and immoral politicians) instead of real 'churchmen' (Adrian VI being an exception). Their policies for the most part were to.....
1. Build and take over the 'Papal States' of central Italy giving Popes an actual 'country' to be in charge of.
2. Break the power of and make war on rival 'great families' of Italy using foreign troops/ mercenaries (most of the Renaissance Popes were from rich Italian great families such as the Medici, Farnese, etc. they used their position as Pope to take out rival families such as the Orsini, Colonna etc.).
3.Being rich and used to riches they beautified Rome with art, jewels, gold, fountains, architecture.
The impact on the Church was that no one was really paying attention to running it, just using it, or paying attention to religious matters. To the truly religious the Popes behavior of the times were mostly disgusting. The 'Reformation' and Protestantism (the religious breaking away and starting their own independent Churches) started elsewhere in Europe during the period as a result.

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

In the last decades of the 19th century, the USA economy experienced high growth and industrialization. It became more global, with investments and trade links in a rising number of places in the world. This considerable growth of the country´s economic might forced a more active involvement in foreign affairs. American interests and their protection demanded it. The Spanish-American War that gave the US possession of new territories and the constant intevention in the affairs of the Caribbean, justified by the Roosevelt Corollary to the Monroe Doctrine , are examples of this larger role in international relations.

miss Akunina [59]
<span>What Tucker means when he says this is that the problem is not how to fix the current problems with the economic system. The problem is that we have a system that allows for this sort of inequality in the first place. Rather than seeking to bandage the problem we should look at the systemic issues and how it was allowed to become so unevenly distributed in the first place.</span>
