Production-possibility frontier

In “The Significance of the Frontier In American History” by Frederick Jackson Turner, written in 1893 he expounds strongly the importance of the frontier. In his thesis, he outlines that the frontier shaped and molded men into the embodiments of “Americanism”. These were people in a new world that Turner referred to as Americans that receive great traits all due to the encounter of the frontier. This statement made by Turner has been supported by several historians and to this day still holds…

sounds to the production of untrained or previously trained phonemes (e.g., if training the production of /k/ would result in the increased substitution of /k/ for other phonemes).

The participant was…

devices weren’t being stored in our purses or pockets - they were worn on our wrists, plugged into our ears and in some cases, embedded in our clothes and shoes. Innovations like this are one reason why Intel views wearable technology as the new frontier of computing. The level of intimacy of wearable technology opens up a world of transformative experiences that is different from a smartphone. That’s because there are plenty of devices and options that are available to suit any health…

It has been more than a century since Frederick Jackson Turner first read his paper “The Significance of the Frontier in American History” before an audience of some two hundred historians assembled in Chicago for the “World’s Columbian Exposition.” Yet, Turner’s essay remains the classic expression of the “frontier thesis.” Turner was mostly ignored at the time but eventually Turner's lectures gained such wide distribution and influence that a contemporary scholar has called it "the single…

Before Frederick Turner’s essay “The Significance of the Frontier in American History”, the section begins with how influential the essay is and a bit of history about it. It continues by commenting how Turner may not be looked at as much of a historian anymore, but his work it still important. The rest of the passage is the essay. It starts with how different the European Frontier was from the American one, it is a vast open expanse where few people live, and Indian tribes dot the landscape.…

The frontier is like a border that changes the area as it sweeps across. Not only does it change the people’s behavior in the land, but it also alters the way people think. They adapt to new ways that make life different. This frontier line that changes the lives of people is, what I see to be, a method of rapid and effective Americanization. My definition of Americanization…

Growth and expansion are new initiatives under CEO Gary Kelly, and Southwest is pushing its way into new cities where other airlines have formerly dominated (Zellner, 2005). Southwest has also bid on bankrupt carrier Frontier Airlines, which it would operate as a wholly owned subsidiary for two years, keeping its Airbus aircraft and personnel intact (Bachman,…

can’t have a democracy as long as capitalism is our economic system. If the majority of people in this country do not own the means of production (capitalism), then they do not own or control society (democracy). That is why it is my belief, and I have no doubt that there are other stipulations, that if the majority can somehow gain control of the means of production as socialism describes, we have a greater chance of establishing a true…

motivated by profit and labor power, focused on the exploitation of the labor force. Beginning in the 19th century, competitive capitalism introduced the idea of reducing wage rates and different forms of production. Then came the era of organized capitalism, also known as Fordism, the era of mass production and introduction of assembly lines. Capitalism has proven to be a successful advancement in global economy and trade. (Knox, P., & Agnew, 1989, ch. 1-3). Although Capitalism provided…
