Struggles for human freedoms have transformed the global world's landscape. At the beginning of the 20th century a scant 10% of the world's people lived in independent nations. By its end the great majority lived in freedom, making their own choices. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948 was a breakthrough, ushering in a new era-with the world community taking on realization of human rights as a matter of common concern and a collective goal of humanity The global integration of nations and people has been a second breakthrough—as a global movement has entrenched universal human rights in the norms of the world’s diverse cultures. Over the past half century an international system of human rights has emerged, with a rapid rise in commitments made to it in the past decade. In 1990 only two conventions—the international Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW)—had been ratified by more than 100 countries. Today five of the six major human rights covenants and conventions have each been ratified by more than 140 countries. (The exception is the Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment). Seven major labour rights conventions have been ratified by 62 countries—nearly a third of the world's countries At the international level, there were two very significant developments in the 1990s. The first was the creation of a system of international justice, with international criminal tribunals for the former Yugoslavia (1993) and Rwanda (1994) for war crimes. The second was the 1998 Rome agreement on the creation of an International Criminal Court. The court, which can establish individual criminal responsibility, complements the existing system to review gross violations of human rights by governments. Advances in human development added to this progress. In developing countries today, compared with 1970: 1. A newborn can expect to live 10 years longer. 2. The infant mortality rate has been cut by more than two-fifths. 3. Adult illiteracy is down by nearly half, and combined net primary and secondary enrolment has increased by nearly 50%. 4. The share of rural people with safe water has risen more than fourfold, from 13% to about 71% Q56. The passage claims that global integration of nations and people has been a breakthrough in the struggle for human freedoms because: 1. The integration entrenches human rights in the norms of diverse culture. 2. The national governments fall in line and start respecting human rights. 3. The process of integration creates a situation conducive to ratification of various human rights covenants by national governments. 4. Global integration fosters an enabling environment in which human rights violators may be brought to justice and punished. |

Read the passage to answer the question: Most economists in the United States seem captivated by the spell of the free market. Consequently, nothing seems good or normal that does not accord with the requirements of the free market. A price that is determined by the seller or, for that matter, established by anyone other than the aggregate of consumers seems pernicious. Accordingly, it requires a major act of will to think of price-fixing (the determination of prices by the seller) as both “normal” and having a valuable economic function. In fact, price-fixing is normal in all industrialized societies because the industrial system itself provides, as an effortless consequence of its own development, the price-fixing that it requires. Modern industrial planning requires and rewards great size. Hence, a comparatively small number of large firms will be competing for the same group of consumers. That each large firm will act with consideration of its own needs and thus avoid selling its products for more than its competitors charge is commonly recognized by advocates of free-market economic theories. But each large firm will also act with full consideration of the needs that it has in common with the other large firms competing for the same customers. Each large firm will thus avoid significant price-cutting, because price-cutting would be prejudicial to the common interest in a stable demand for products. Most economists do not see price-fixing when it occurs because they expect it to be brought about by a number of explicit agreements among large firms; it is not. Moreover, those economists who argue that allowing the free market to operate without interference is the most efficient method of establishing prices have not considered the economies of non-socialist countries other than the United states. These economies employ intentional price-fixing, usually in an overt fashion. Formal price-fixing by cartel and informal price-fixing by agreements covering the members of an industry are commonplace. Were there something peculiarly efficient about the free market and inefficient about price-fixing, the countries that have avoided the first and used the second would have suffered drastically in their economic development. There is no indication that they have. Socialist industry also works within a framework of controlled prices. In the early 1970’s, the Soviet Union began to give firms and industries some of the flexibility in adjusting prices that a more informal evolution has accorded the capitalist system. Economists in the United States have hailed the change as a return to the free market. But Soviet firms are no more subject to prices established by a free market over which they exercise little influence than are capitalist firms; rather, Soviet firms have been given the power to fix prices. The primary purpose of the passage is to: |
