The year after abortion was legalized in New York State, the maternal-mortality rate there dropped by 45 percent—one reason why legalization can be seen as "a public-health triumph."Of all the issues roiling the ongoing culture wars, abortion is both the most intimate and the most common. Almost half of American women have terminated at least one pregnancy, and millions more Americans of both sexes have helped them, as partners, parents, health-care workers, counselors, friends. Collectively, it would seem, Americans have quite a bit of knowledge and experience of abortion. Yet the debate over legal abortion is curiously abstract: we might be discussing brain transplants. My files are crammed with articles assessing the question of when human life begins, the personhood of the fetus and its putative moral and legal status, and acceptable versus deplorable motives for terminating a pregnancy and the philosophical groundings of each one—not to mention the interests of the state, the medical profession, assorted religions, the taxpayer, the infertile, the fetal father, and even the fetal grandparent. Farfetched analogies abound: abortion is like the Holocaust, or slavery; denial of abortion is like forcing a person to spend nine months intravenously hooked up to a medically endangered stranger who happens to be a famous violinist. It sometimes seems that the further abortion is removed from the actual lives and circumstances of real girls and women, the more interesting it becomes to talk about. The famous-violinist scenario, the invention of the philosopher Judith Jarvis Thomson, has probably inspired as much commentary as any philosophical metaphor since Plato's cave.

Desafortunadamente, se te olvidó incluir las alternativas, opciones o incisos para responder la pregunta. Sin esas alternativas, sólo podemos pensar en palabras que tengan sentido para entender la frase.
Así que al carecer de alternativas, vamos a responder usando nuestro conocimiento sobre el tema.
En 1830, la clase dirigente nacional se involucró en una conflagración civil por la disputa del poder político. En este contexto, se enfrentaron en la Batalla de Lircay los ejércitos dirigidos por Ramón Freire y Joaquín Prieto, respectivamente. El triunfo de este último significó "el final del gobierno liberal y el comienzo de la época portaliana."
Después de esta Guerra Civil Chilena de 1829 y 1830, el periodo portaliano comienza a construir el Estado Republicano en Chile que se basaba más bien en el autoritarismo de los gobernantes que deseaban controlar a la sociedad chilena, forzándolos a obedecer sin cuestionar nada. Este tipo de autoritarismo contó con el respaldo político de las clases pudientes y por su puesto, de la religión.
Fue también una época en la que se reprimió la libertad de expresión y los movimientos de protesta organizados por los liberales.
Describe and explain why the United States would want to oust the Taliban from Afghanistan. Who would benefit from this and why?
Answer:
The Taliban was an Authoritarian organization that infringed on the rights of Afghani citizens and abused ethnic minorities.
Explanation:
The Taliban came around after the Soviet Afghan war, they took it upon themselves to invade an already broken country and force it to follow Sharia law, which are strict religious codes, these would infringe on the rights of men, women, ethnic minorities. The citizens themselves would benefit from the Taliban being ousted.
Answer:
The Taliban, a political organization of Islamic extremists, ruled Afghanistan from 1996 to 2001. Their goal of the Taliban is to convert the entire world to Islam. The Taliban believe that those who refuse to convert are enemies and must be killed. Under the rule of the Taliban, women are forbidden to seek an education. They are also not allowed to leave home without a male escort, usually a family member. Many American pastimes such as music and television were banned by Taliban. The Taliban is strongly opposed to religious freedom, freedom of speech, and human equality. They claim the U.S. wants to destroy their way of life while the U.S. claims it only wants to bring human equality and dignity to all. Those who benefit the most from the elimination of the Taliban in Afghanistan are women and those who practice a less extreme form of Islam.
