Here Tocqueville presents the inexorability of democracy. In essence, democracy is a continuously expanding force where “all events, like all men, serve its development.” (Democracy in America 6).

the horizontal bass; but, they’re not completely right. Though Fender made the “ Precision “ bass ( which was the first good sounding bass ) there were at least 4 prototypes before that.

Mills criticism of nussbaum Nussbaum develops a theory based on capabilities to achieve justice for all men and women. The capabilities she selects are stemmed from the issues she saw with the discrimination and the mistreatment of women all around the world. Women are falling behind men politically, socially and economically all around the world.
