Merchant and craft guilds formed to provide support for their members, who shared a certain economic role. Today, in the United States, many labor and trade unions exist for the same purpose. They unite workers in specific industries so that they may together work for their mutual benefit.

Research the history of early labor unions and their relationship to the earlier guilds in Europe. Then select one of the labor or trade unions from the list below to research:

American Federation of Government Employees
American Federation of Teachers
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers
International Union of Police Associations
National Association of Letter Carriers
Office and Professional Employees International Union
United Mine Workers of America
Writers Guild of America
Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association
Service Employees International Union
United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America
United Farm Workers of America

Use the internet or the library to learn more about your chosen union. Finally, combine your research with the knowledge you gained from this lesson to write a short response in which you compare and contrast your union with the medieval merchant and craft guilds. Your short response should contain at least two paragraphs and should address both similarities and differences between the modern union and medieval guilds.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

American Federation of Government Employees.

Explanation:

American Federation of Government Employees was founded on August 18, 1932. Everett B. Kelley was the first President of this union.  In 2015, it had 301,992 members. The American Federation of Government Employees is an American labor union in which more than 670,000 employees of federal government, about 5,000 employees from District of Columbia, and few hundred private sector employees are the members of this labour union.

Answer 2

Answer:

           American Federation of Government Employees

 The American Federation of Government Employees also known as AFGE was formed in 1932 in the midst of the Great Depression. In 1945 in the year of the end of the World War II, after years of suspended salary, the AFGE secured a 16 percent pay increase with the passage of the Federal Pay Act – the largest single pay increase, the largest increase in its history since then and now. In the 1950s, AFGE won the introduction of within-grade pay increases, transportation allowances for transferred workers, and payment for ensued annual leave, overtime, and night and holiday work, but it still didn’t acquire bargaining rights. President Kennedy in 1962 announced that “the right of Federal employees to deal collectively with the Federal departments and agencies in which they are employed should be protected.” The Executive Order 10988 established the right of federal employees to exercise their voice in the workplace.  Since then, it has extended a union contract to more than 700,000 government employees in thousands of federal and DC government facilities across the country. As of today, the American Federation of Government Employees stands as one of the largest and most influential forces for worker, civil, and human rights in the world.    

Labor unions such as are similar to the medieval merchant and craft guilds. The purpose of guilds is for individuals with common goals to form an association. Guilds were formed by merchants who traded goods in foreign lands. Merchants started grouping to protect themselves from highway men when they traveled. As their business increased, they hired other people to do the traveling for them. They set up their bases in towns and cities. Some established shops at ports and crossroads around which new towns developed. Many merchants banded together to travel and trade, especially in urban centers. The American Federation of Government Employees fights for workers' rights. Just like many guilds in the Middle Ages, it did not just appear. It started with a few people who wanted workers’ rights. Then more and more people joined as they saw the benefit of the organization. It soon became a national organization recognized by many individuals. The difference between the AFGE and medieval guilds is that guilds never became national organizations as did the AFGE. Guilds in the Medieval times were for the benefit of each town rather than the nation because each town had different types of resources and many were at war against each other, causing them not to have national organizations for the common good.

What was one of Japan's primary goals during World War I?
O A. To prevent communism from spreading in Asia
O B. To expand its influence throughout Asia
C. To protect its territory from Chinese aggression
O D. To remain neutral and trade with all European states

Answers

Answer:

B. To expand it's influence throughout Asia

Explanation:

During Japan's time of expansion in World War One, communism was only prevalent in the Soviet Union. It wasn't spreading like it later would after World War 2. It did not want to protect it's territory from Chinese aggression. China knew that if they got in a war with Japan, they would lose in terms of area and population. Japan did not want to remain neutral either, Emperor Hirohito wanted Japan to ally with it's closest allies. So, the answer is actually option B.

Introduction

After the Civil War, much of the South lay in ruins. “It passes my comprehension to tell what became of our railroads,” one South Carolinian told a northern reporter. “We had passably good roads, on which we could reach almost any part of the State, and the next week they were all gone—not simply broken up, but gone. Some of the material was burned, I know, but miles and miles of iron have actually disappeared, gone out of existence.”1 He might as well have been talking about the entire antebellum way of life. The future of the South was uncertain. How would these states be brought back into the Union? Would they be conquered territories or equal states? How would they rebuild their governments, economies, and social systems? What rights did freedom confer

What was NOT a result of the construction of the canal from Lake Erie to the Hudson
River?

Employment opportunities grew, especially for immigrants.

Construction boomed along the canal route.

Federal financing became more readily available.

The cost of transporting goods dropped significantly.

Answers

Answer:

Federal financing became more readily available.

Explanation:

What was NOT a result of the construction of the canal from Lake Erie to the Hudson River is "Federal financing became more readily available."

This is because the construction of the canal from Lake Erie to the Hudson River was done between 1817 and 1825, and was majorly carried out by raw manpower provided by Irishmen using basic equipment with very little pay to show for their hard work.

Hence, it provided employment opportunities for people particularly immigrants such as Irish, and also the construction of houses grew along the canal routes due to an increase in population in the area.

Also, it reduced the cost of transportation of goods.

However, it does not lead to the availability of Federal financing.

Answer: OPTION C ) Federal financing became more readily available.

Which of the following statements describes one way that energy flows out of an ecosystem?

Answers

Answer:

Cellular respiration produces heat as a by-product, and this heat dissipates into the atmosphere

Explanation:

The energy in the ecosystem is obtained mainly from the Sun, by conversion of the Sun's energy into energy rich molecules from which chemical energy can be obtained through cellular respiration in other living organisms, a process that produces heat as a byproduct.

The chemical energy is then converted into kinetic energy and heat energy, as a byproduct, within the cells of the muscular system. The heat is transferred out of the body of an organism into the atmosphere and environment and from there to other remote locations away from the ecosystem, through conduction, and convection, leading to a flow of energy out of the ecosystem
