Antwort

The correct answer is A. Disgust with machine corruption.

Erklärung

The question focuses on the factors that led to urban reform movements in the 1890s. This period was marked by significant social and economic challenges, which spurred citizens to seek changes in governance and social conditions.

Here are further explanations.

Option A: Disgust with machine corruption. Many citizens were frustrated with the political machines that dominated city politics, leading to demands for reform to reduce corruption and improve governance.
Option B: City governments bankrupted by corruption. The rampant corruption often resulted in financial mismanagement, causing city governments to struggle economically, which further fueled the desire for reform.
Option C: Better civic education given to immigrants. While education for immigrants was important, it was not a primary driver for the reform movements of the 1890s, as the focus was more on addressing corruption and social issues.
Option D: Widespread suffering from the depression of that decade. The economic depression did contribute to social unrest, but the immediate catalyst for reform was more closely tied to political corruption and mismanagement.
