Discourse Arguments will now be presented that philosophically justify the act of terrorism in the right instance. I am going to start by applying the Just War Principles to both case studies. Beginning with the Nelson Mandela case study, it is unclear as to whether the ANC is a legitimate authority to execute acts of violence towards a governing body. It could be argued that the ANC was a legitimate authority since in the end the party was unbanned and then elected into government in 1994…
consequences of their actions, although it may be difficult to see at first. No one is immune to the effects of living in a poisonous society. Mandela views the oppressor as anyone who forces another to violate the natural laws of the world. Although the punishment is not prison, there is still a penalty to pay for violating these natural laws. Antigone and Mandela recognize this fact, and they are determined to do what they view as right. These actions are the impetus for societal development…
Looking back at history is all about finding the threads that tie time and events together. Nelson Mandela’s story is one of those threads; in 1964 Mandela (the leader of the anti-apartheid African National Congress (ANC)) was sentenced to life imprisonment for sabotage and treason.

Then, Nelson Mandela, and after that I’ll explain a few reasons for why it happens, mixed with some examples. So let’s get started! The Mandela effect. What is it? The Mandela effect is when…
Leadership Assessment If you could be a great leader, would you rather be Napoleon, Nelson Mandela, or Mahatma Gandhi? If you were a follower, which one of these leaders would you rather follow? There are few people who may not recognize Napoleon, Mandela, or Gandhi. To most, these men represent leadership, determination, and unbreakable will to fulfill a vision.

well as credited. “It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front, especially when you celebrate victory when nice things occur. You take the front line when there is danger. Then people will appreciate your leadership.” Nelson Mandela (Goodreads.com,…

After working in the congress for four years, Mandela did not cooperate with the policies of the ANC. Nelson was put on trial for treason. The charges fell through and he was found not guilty. The ANC was banned for some time because of a massacre and Mandela was forced underground to…
