During the cold war, many countries joined the non-aligned movement in order to:

a. secure economic and military aid from more powerful allied countries.

b. discourage countries from developing nuclear weapons programs.

c. avoid being dominated by either the united states or the soviet union.

d. prevent communist ideology from being spread throughout their borders

C.avoid being dominated by either the United States or the Soviet Union.

The Non Aligned Movement was an effort done by countries to keep political neutrality in the midst of the Cold war. The meetings celebrated in Belgrad in 1961 established the principles of the states in regards to cooperation and development in International Politics.

These are 3 out of the 10 Principles that serve as guidelines:

Respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all nations

Recognition of the equality of all races and of the equality of all nations large and small

Abstention from intervention or interference in the internal affairs of another country

As the bipolar world no longer exists, the importance of the Non Aligned Movement came loose, it was a major force for activism globally in the 1980s.

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.
