According to Hegel, “complete freedom was embodied only among the Germanic peoples, who in their historical development, inheriting the fruits of the Reformation and the French Revolution, achieved universal civil and political freedom”. However, according to Burke, the result of the French Revolution was the distortion of the people's freedom.

I feel that King’s acts are justified. He obviously isn’t causing any harm to anyone. He’s just trying to get his point across in the most non-violent way. The fact that others disagree with his is crazy. King has a process in order for him to protest. As it states in the text, “In nonviolent campaigns there are four basic steps;collection of facts to determine whether injustices exit; negotiation; self purification; and direct action.” In my opinion, him going through all of the steps is…

The act also constitutes what types of information can be accessed, who can officially access it and the different types of exemptions that may impact these. In terms of whether the act itself allows for people who use it to treat information and a national resource within the public sector,…

theme highlighted in the book, I would say it’s not a great book for teaching a lesson. However, with the great characterization and way of immersing the reader into the setting, it is definitely a great book to read just for the sake of reading. The civil war between King Stephen and Empress Maud had been waging for years. It is the summer of 1138, in Medieval England.

The receptive environment surrounded by the desire to expand civil liberties and grant rights to individuals regardless of whether they are straight or not has, further, perpetuated the issue.
