When you think about an ideal pharaoh with warrior-like attributes, you most likely aren’t thinking about a woman. In this case, Co-Ruler and Pharaoh, Hatshepsut was a ruler who gained a legacy that many will remember. Historians say, 1 “Hatshepsut was only the third woman to become pharaoh in 3,00 years of ancient Egyptian history, and the first to attain the full power of the position”. Hatshepsut’s story of reigning was different than most would have had. She was the daughter of King…

I am fascinated by history. I find this subject compelling because of how much it is overlooked, and also because by engaging with historical texts and stories, one is able to experience life vicariously through others in different time periods. By digging into history one can fight alongside the peasants in the French Revolution, explore new frontiers, and protest for social justice in the 1960s. Individuals can witness the brilliance of the Library of Alexandria, and can help in the…

Orville and Wilbur Wright became known world-wide, and the brothers were celebrated as heroes in the United States. All of this praise couldn’t last forever, though, and soon Orville and Wilbur encountered issues with the patenting and proof of legitimacy of their flying method. These issues escalated into a full blown patent war between the brothers and other inventors in the field. The brothers from Indiana went on to delay American aeroplane progress for years. After their historic…

The No Child Left Behind Act present three distributive characteristics including legitimacy, universality, and coercion. First, the policy is considered as legitimacy which is defined as making policy a legal obligation. This policy is considered legitimacy because it mandates every teacher to follow a curriculum for each grade level and makes every student take an assessment test.

take the position of defending property rights against a formidable (if false) construction of the public’s best interest. As a result, proposals such as the Keystone XL pipeline turn public opinion against Native American groups and reduce the legitimacy of their claims to exclusive property on…

This paper is written based on an exploration and subsequent interview of a city administrator in Brooklyn Park. It will address the role and challenges that an administrator whose practices are closely aligned with the New Public Service world view faces in discharging her duties to the public. In an attempt to answer the central question of how and in whose interest do public administrators serve as agential leaders, three tenets, key to a good public agency that administers in the interest of…

Louis Owens, in his account “Motion of Fire and Form: Autobiographical Reflections” and Wendy Rose, in her collection Bone Dance, create experience-and-memory-based narratives that help them to shape their identities. They are able to recreate events to which some of the pieces may be missing, allowing them to better understand their history and their place in a world of categories. They learn from their families how to fit in and interact with the environment around them when they do not fit…

This article tries to explain the differences in time present in the history of the Book of Mormon. Although time is fairly well recorded, this “time” may or may not have coincided with our current understanding of how time is measured. In fact, from the records of wars, it would make more sense if they recorded each aspect of their lives in a different manner. In fact, this is seemingly supported without a doubt in viewing the patterns in which war is recorded. When a war is recorded, it is…

commit a crime. There’s no one-way answer to how crime is caused. It depends on the person's genes, the environment they live in or grew up in and their family life ie relationships. The author's explanation of crime is economic, punishment, and legitimacy. After much thought, I happen to agree with it to some degree. But overall, I think it's the way justice system was made that had a major influence in affecting crime…
