Question

which document established a tradition of direct democracy in new england? a social contract b mayflower compact c united states constitution d declaration of independence

Explanation:

The Mayflower Compact was signed by Pilgrims in 1620, creating a self-governing agreement that laid the groundwork for direct democratic practices in New England colonies, where community members participated directly in governance. The Social Contract is a political theory, not a New England founding document. The U.S. Constitution established a representative democracy, not direct democracy in New England. The Declaration of Independence focused on severing ties with Britain, not establishing direct democracy traditions.

Answer:

B. Mayflower Compact
