Thanks!
They are all correct.
Thanks, does that mean my answers are correct or that they are all true?
That means your answers are all correct. Sorry, I didn't make that very clear.
The second question is a little ambiguous, but the Seneca Falls conference was held in 1848 -- so not in the early 19th century.
Okay, thank you very much!
You're very welcome.
To determine the accuracy of the statements, we can examine the information provided and explain the thought process behind each answer:
1. Thoreau argued that the legitimacy of democratic laws demanded obedience and represented a higher law than one's individual philosophies or ethics.
To verify the accuracy of this statement, we need to assess the ideas of Henry David Thoreau, specifically his essay "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, Thoreau actually argued against blind obedience to government laws, advocating for individuals to follow their own moral conscience. Therefore, the statement is false.
2. The wave of national uncertainty and secularism in the early 19th century occurred after a conference in which women's rights activists forged a statement of principles and goals for female equality.
To determine the veracity of this statement, we should identify the conference referred to and assess its impact on national uncertainty and secularism. However, the statement does not provide enough context regarding the specific conference or its repercussions. Thus, we cannot conclusively determine its accuracy, but based on the lack of supporting information, it is more likely false.
3. The practices of economic liberalism were nearly absolute in the 19th century with limited government investment into infrastructure or struggling infant industries.
To validate this statement, we need to examine the economic policies of the 19th century. Economic liberalism promoted free markets and limited government intervention in the economy. Government investments in infrastructure and infant industries, however, often occurred during this period. Therefore, the statement is false.
In conclusion, based on the information provided, statement 1 is false, statement 2 is likely false, and statement 3 is false.
