Teachings of the past have always remained within humans. Tales from ages ago still make their way into the modern day, allusions to the past. The lessons that people are taught when they are young stick with them throughout their lives, setting the morals. In The Lord of the Flies by William Golding, the group of young boys, stranded on an island, show the power that moral teachings of the past have upon people, even those completely hidden away from the order that enforces such morality.

different problems occur within this approach of appropriation and production. The contradiction of capitalism resulted in other forms of fundamental contradictions such as the contradiction is between individual organizations and the social anarchy of production.

There was an issue with the emergence of the capitalistic mode of production when the “laws of commodity…

have empowered the individual because the capitalists had isolated them to produce their commodities, however the contradiction is that it resulted in chaos among the producers thus society failed to obtain any anarchy of production (299). As Engels argues, the driving force of the social anarchy of production transformed many men into proletarians and this driving force gave rise to the individual capitalist’s goal of perfection of large-scale industry (299).

However, the positing of rationality in regards to certain behaviours of reading of the behaviour of a number…

Societal Norms, Personal Expression, and Politics Societal Norms are the expected behaviors of individuals within a group. Behaviors in opposition to societal norms are permitted to a certain extent, in the U.S., typically under the right to free speech. Here in the U.S. as well as in Le Guin’s galaxy, a group’s social norms are intrinsically tied to politics, and the reaction of each society to personal expression is influenced by the society’s politics. The socio-political structure on Anarres…

Realism focuses on the international, or third image, motives for the way states behave. It stresses the fact that anarchy in the international system leads states to being self-interested and seeking to accumulate as much power as possible, foregoing any other states. There are three different types of realist thinking: human nature, defensive, and offensive. Human nature…

government has no power and people will fall back to anarchy. Furthermore, rule of law highlights the importance of order within society. By not having people have extreme amounts of power and instead obeying laws the government can be orderly. By having both these aspects of order and freedom the social contract is appeased.
