There are stark differences between communism and democracy. Modern democratic countries have free and fair elections every couple of years. The power of the government eventually lies within the people of the country. Coupled with his comes other freedoms.

For fair elections to take place, there is also a need for freedom of speech and a thriving media.

Democratic countries also have a number of different branches of the government in order to ensure no single entity has too much power e.g. a free judiciary.

Communism, as a political system does not provide individual freedoms and is more concerned about the society. Free and fair elections do not take place and there is usually a one-party system. In order to maintain this one-political system, there is no tolerance for different opinions which means that there is no free press.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.
