Question

The reform communities established in the years before the Civil War:

1) Followed all of the laws but simply banned ownership of private property
2) Set out to reorganize society on a cooperative basis
3) Made no effort to combat the growing disparity between rich and poor
4) Usually followed standard gender and marital relations

Answer 1

The correct answer is: 2) Set out to reorganize society on a cooperative basis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the idea of a cooperative is to work peer to peer for a common purpose, before the civil war the communities settle down to work as a society for the welfare of the whole community with the purpose of reaching a balance. In accordance with this idea, it is important to take into account also to work towards cultural, social, and economic goals to provide the best conditions to society in general.
