“Great Trust” would “absorb all rivals until all business…was under one roof,” which then citizens would enroll in the “industrial army” for service to the country’s need(“Looking Backward” 51). Mutual cooperation, not individuality, would be the centrality of the state that holds the society together. Thus, by realizing the complexity of the situation and the potential benefit of industrial growth and rational lower-class men, he initially did not support nor denounce either side, only…
Famed English novelist, Jane Austen once stated “Give a girl an education and introduce her properly into the world” simply put, if a woman is given the proper opportunity in terms of education and enlightenment she will be prepared for what the world has to offer.

I will therefore be using the examples of the US and Germany to narrow my answer to a more realistic field. In this essay, I will argue that NATO (the North Atlantic Treaty Organization) is central to both US and German security policy. I will use evidence based upon the evolution of US security policies, and…

Body theology is stimulated by liberation theology, process thought and feminist/womanist theology. Process thought is an evolutionary approach towards becoming. As we see that history is part of becoming, so it is also written on the body and by the body, which says that God is working on the body and aslo in and…
Zionism is a complex but simple movement. In its simplest form it calls for a re-establishment of Jewish sovereignty in the Land of Israel, in gathering of the exiles, and liberation of Jews from the anti-Semitic discrimination and persecution that occurred in their Diaspora.
