Anthem by Ayn Rand is written as the journal of Equality 7-2521. Equality 7-2521 lives in a society where Individuality does not exist and differences are evil. He has been taught since he was a child, “… If you are not needed by your brother men, there is no reason for you to burden the earth with your bodies” (Rand 22). Equality has been cursed since birth because he is smarter and taller than his brothers (Rand 21). Because he enjoys science, and wants to be assigned to the Home of the…

individualistic culture. We normally try to do things ourselves, and at a certain age it is expected of us to do so.

Consequently, within the economic and social sphere, men are all unequal between one…

Individualism as the Downfall of Revolution Revolution, by definition, is the creation of massive, world-altering change. It embodies the crumbling of old morals, traditions, habits, technology, and hierarchies. In the era of the May Fourth Movement in China, this was no less the case; revolutionaries sought an enormous paradigm shift, especially in terms of China’s culture and values. This is expressed clearly in the literature and film of the era, through creators such as Lu Xun and Cai…

article addressed five sets of transferable skills that are essential for your career. The five skill sets are: Communication: make yourself understood; People Skills: sell yourself; Teamwork: play well with others even if they are different; Collectivism: no more lone genius; and Management: lead the team (Motluck, 2011).

beliefs as, “only institutions can save us”, a direct repudiation of Plato. In this paper, I will show that, in fact, Plato’s philosophy is embedded in Tocqueville’s Democracy in America, specifically revolving around the preference for community and collectivism rather than private gain.

This applies…
