Reading the passage
The sentence defines the change for us: welfare replaces individual rights as the emphasis, and the state becomes a protector rather than a referee. That is what this “age of collectivism” means here. We're looking for the shift in the state's role, not a separate theory about how social classes cooperate.
Working the answers
- A
No coalition among classes is described in this definition.
- B
Treating workers as members of a class is different from the government taking a more active welfare role. The sentence doesn't describe how legislators classify workers.
- C
Nothing says competing classes were harmonized by subordinating them to the state. Promoting welfare doesn't establish that process.
- D
The state isn't said to address only goals shared by every class. The example even begins with protections for particular groups—women and children.
- ECorrect
Active promotion of social welfare taking precedence over individual liberty matches the shift from prioritizing personal rights to prioritizing collective well-being (paragraph 1). The protector-versus-referee comparison reinforces that change.
