What are two examples of ways that people shape the world they live in? why do you think people do this?

religion and politics

People built religion and politics to form a functioning society with active citizens. While many believe that religion and state cannot be separated, most believe that the two should stand independent of each other.

The majority believes that regardless of different religious faith or political views, moral values should govern all human thinking and behavior within the society, and that each should have the freedom to pursue the truth and exercise his beliefs candidly.

if interdependence implies a two-way dependence, and if each partner is equally dependent on the other for success, then there is an equal commitment to the making the partnership successful. the advantage is sustainability of the relationship, the disadvantage is that decisions are "democratic" and therefore may take longer to reach and more likely to be a compromise (which is not always the best solution). as the interdependence moves away from equality, the decisions become more influenced by the more independent partner. in the extreme the relationship becomes more dictatorial and more like "master-slave". generally the relationship has less commitment in both directions and is more likely to be temporary.

if one generalizes (and one shouldn't), equity partnerships, which is probably what is implied by interdependence, can be slow to progress or change but durable. the extreme alternative, independent-dependent partnerships tend to be efficient but more fragile.

hope this but you will have to site your own evidence. : )
