There is a common misconception fostered by many Britons that with the growing diversity and the growing influence of globalization in the country Great Britain has become a classless society. This myth is further reinforced by the proclamations made by different political dignitaries like former British Prime Minister John Major who expressed the desire to create a 'classless society of opportunity' after he came into power back in 1990s (Lewis, 2013). Not only John Major, another Prime Minister of Great Britain Tony Blair also proclaimed in his speech in 1999 that "the class war is over" (Marsden, 1999). But in ...

Industrialization physically transformed England’s lands and waterways to become fit for commercialization and ...

Prisoners' Right to Vote in the UK and the Need for the Current law Reforms

Voting is the most common way of choosing leaders in the continents. Voting rights are the privileges given to those who have acquired the requirements to vote, for example, attaining the required age of eighteen years. However, restrictions are placed on some people as prisoners and ex-members of parliament. A case in point is observed in the UK where prisoners are denied the right to vote. This may be a major setback to the social life of those citizens behind bars, but may also act as a control measure for security reasons in the state of UK. Issuing the inmates with a ...

‘Warfare state’ or ‘welfare state’: which better describes the British State in the 20th century?

Great Britain has been a witness to many conflicts that had led to a shift in international and regional politics, triggering the onset of policies and programs directed to either war or welfare. As a veteran of the Great Wars and one of the world’s influential hegemons, Britain had succumbed to both victory and immense loss especially in economic and social development. With the trauma caused by the Great Wars to the nation, the British government alongside the monarchy had revised its programs to revive the once dominant British state towards the 20th century. However, experts have argued as to what ...

Thesis
Europe has seen it all; revolutions, plague, recession, famine, revolts, and invasions, and this was why, when opportunity came knocking at their doors, the few powerful nations of Europe, adventured to expand and control their business interests far from their shores. In order to understand how and why this transpired, one needs to go back in time and understand Europe as it was in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

Background

The Rise of Europe between 1500 and 1850 was largely accounted for by the growth of European nations which shared their borders with the Atlantic, and in particular, ...

Kingsley Amis was a prevalent and creative poet, novelist and critic, mostly considered amongst the utmost authors of the twentieth century about satire. On the other hand, Philip Larkin was also a well-known post-war writer in England, a nationwide favourite poet that was normally denoted as “England’s other poet Laureate.” Philip Larkin is persistently associated with the first novel of Kingsley Amis “Lucky Jim” as it is devoted to him. Larkin assisted in inspiring and in editing the book; many perceived him as the initial model for the main character of the novel. The connection between the two authors is more ...

WHY WAS JAMES II DEPOSED IN ENGLAND IN JANUARY 1689?

Why was James II deposed in England in January 1689?
Religion had played a key role in the development of many nations, and some have met immense criticism and opposition, especially in countries wherein ideology clashes with religious tradition and teachings. In Great Britain, new religions brought into the country had been met with reluctance and even severe opposition, such as Catholicism. Catholicism had met both support and opposition especially in the time of James II in the 17th century. However, while the monarch had embraced Catholicism, his subjects did not and opposed his desire to make Catholicism be ...

Orwell’s essay ‘England Your England’ written in 1941 is typical of the confusion that is felt by individuals and the whole of the country in uncertain political times.

This paper will argue that the central thesis of the essay was that English patriotism and loyalty exists in different forms depending on class in normal circumstances. As a collective idea, it is far more complex and is undergoing transition. For ...

However, what the African American thought and felt about it is less known. Moreover, their role in the revolution is even lesser known or at least ignored. This paper seeks to establish the blacks’ as well as the whites’ perception of the Revolution, the reality in relation to the ideas and ideals of freedom and to raise a case based on the revolution against ...

The ways in which people interpret the past are often colored by the ways in which they see their contemporary times. One of the more colorful phenomena of American politics in the early twenty-first century has been the emergence of the Tea Party, a group that appears to want to roll back the role of government in American affairs much like the American colonists wanted to roll back British influence in North America. When a group of colonists stormed Boston Harbor in the guise of Mohawk Indians, bent on throwing a load of British tea into the harbor in protest against a new ...

Educational Institution
Glass Ceiling
According to Merriam-Webster the term “Glass Ceiling” is defined as an unfair system or behaviours that prevent women or minorities from taking high positions (merriam-webster.com, 2014). People that support the glass ceiling for women truly exist in the developed world, even in developed countries such as UK and U.S. I totally agree with the statement saying that glass ceiling still exists, although we are in the 21st century, and it is a fact that there are some incidences, where women are discriminated and they are treated as 2nd class citizen in many places in ...

In the fictional text, AphraBehn portrays the colonial views in the negative, majorly opposing the existing vice among many of the nations. The author depicts Surinam as living in perfect peace yet the colonial extension spread throughout the land. In some way, the colonial masters and the slaves justified colonialism by making people believe that they lived in peace and understanding. However, the author notes that slavery was the most unfavorable idea among most of the people including the slaves and the masters. However, the text is not fully antislavery as the author gives a good account of Oroonoko in ...

In the eighteenth century, during the American Revolution War, there were two opposing groups in discord with each other, the Loyalists and the Patriots (Frank 58). The Revolutionary War had many warriors and many leaders, but as in the case with any war, there was also much bloodshed. The war started with the British, whose rule was in South Carolina, and there was division on the colonists who supported the British rule. Consequently, political views changed and twisted, resulting into the appearance of Patriots and Loyalists. The Loyalists also referred to as Tories or King’s men were opposed ...

- Introduction & Background
The Cold War was a period of tension between the United States and the Soviet Union. Tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union resulted after the end of the World War II in 1945, which left both the United States and the Soviet Union as the World Super Powers. A bipolar international system spurred competition and suspicion between the United States and the Soviet. This suspicion emanated from the fact that both powers fought for the balance of relative power. This means that the progress of one power would negatively severe the power of ...

Introduction
The Arab-Israeli conflict refers to the war between the Jewish state of Israel and the Arabs of the Middle East over land in the area known as Palestine (Bickerton, 9). There have been various reasons associated with this long term conflict. These include land, claim of the country and anti-Semitism (Bickerton, 10). Consequently, there has been lots of peace agreements and treaties that have been sealed between the two contending groups, in a quest to find peace in the Middle East region. The British mandate for Palestine is one of these agreements. This mandate was developed by the ...

In ancient Greece when someone committed a murder the weapon was destroyed because the Ancient Greeks believed that fate was decided by the gods so the murder was not as responsible for the crime as the weapon itself. Instrumentality when used in reference to weapons is the hypothesis that the increased availability of weapons in a certain area also increases that areas likelihood of weapon based offences. Essentially the increased availability of guns increases the chances that a criminal will choose a gun as their weapon of choice for committing crimes, not to mention this also increases the range of crimes this criminal ...

The Second World War started on 3rd September1939 when France and Britain declared war on the Adolf Hitler led Germany. Most people consider Hitler as the main cause of the World War II. In addition, there were several other factors and causes that led to this war. My argument therefore is that although Hitler played a very humongous role in triggering the Second World War, there are however other causes of this war. In this essay, I will bring into light these causes; explain their relationships and their overall effects.
Formulated to officially end the First World War, the ...

The British emerged victorious at the battle of Camden southern theater of the American war. British army under the command of General Cornwallis sent American army 10km north of Camden.

Largely, ‘Mrs. Dalloway’ is one of those novels that do not have a concrete plot. Other than creating various major situations that exist between characters towards pushing the story forward, the author moved her narrative through following the passage of hours of the day. Additionally, the book comprises of movements that are based on one character to another and those from their internal thoughts to internal thoughts of another. On page 45 the author points out that “But nothing is so strange when one is in love (and what was this except being in love?) as the complete indifference of ...

Martin Luther, John Calvin, and Henry VIII all had certain ideas in common during the Protestant Reformation, since they rejected the authority of the pope in Rome and thought that local rulers should be heads of national churches. Indeed, the Reformation could be described as a great impetus to nationalism as it spread through northern Germany, Switzerland, Holland, Scandinavia, England and Scotland in the 16th Century. They all thought the Latin Mass should be abolished, and had the Bible translated into the local vernacular languages. All Protestants abolished the old religious orders, permitted clergy to marry, ended the veneration of ...

History of the English Language

The English language is one of those languages with a strong history of origin and development (Coulmas, & Watts, 2006). The language started with the arrival of Germanic tribes in the land of Britain around 5th century AD. The invaders mainly the Angles, the Saxons and the Jutes, displaced the natives who later settled in what is today Wales, Scotland and Ireland. The Angles who originated from “Englaland” spoke the language “Englisc” which is the origin of today’s English (Coulmas, & Watts, 2006). There has been several attempts to standardize the language throughout its developmental stages including the current modern language. However, ...

Frederick Douglass' The Meaning of July Fourth for the Negro

In Frederick Douglass' speech "The Meaning of July Fourth for the Negro," the noted abolitionist and speaker called for an end to slavery using several different strategies of oratory and persuasion. By humbling himself before his audience, comparing the plight of slavery to the British rule they had only recently escaped, and placing a moral imperative on the ending of slavery, Douglass makes an effective and strong appeal for his cause on July 5, 1852.

Douglass' opening and closing strategies involve qualifying himself personally as an orator - he humbles himself ...

The War of 1812 is a significant event for the United States of America (America) that introduced much of the reforms characterizing the status quo. It placed much emphasis on respect for American sovereignty and diplomacy – with emphasis on respecting America’s diplomatic rights, the sanctity of American political unity and American economic development. On the other hand, it places heavy weight on controversial American expansionist effort on British Canada and Spanish Florida. Nevertheless, the War is a necessary one due to its positive consequences to the development of America as a nation.

America saw several opportunities to expand its territory during ...

Slavery has existed for a long time, with many people regarding it as the most astonishing phenomena. Slavery is exceedingly unnatural occurrence that provokes mixed feelings from the heart of every individual. Many people are descendants of those who used to be slaves several years ago. It is surprising that some still face slavery in the contemporary times. By definition, slavery is a societal institution-based dominance, ownership, and exploitation of an individual by another1. Other scholars also define slavery as owning another person unlawfully, with the sole purpose of exploiting the labor of the person for enjoyment or gain of the ...

Of all accomplished novels by H.G Wells, The Time Machine most resists a twenty-first century readers’ effort, to pardon Wells from the accusation of being an imperialist. Indeed, it is clear that imperialism is a vital element in H G Wells novels. Wells imbues his texts with colonial and occupation components that require separation between the future and the present and momentary pleasure, particularly those delights associated with the self-centered British conquerors exemplified by The Time Machine’s, The Time Traveler. Wells’ story from a post-modern eye represents an imperial Britain wallowing with forces of technology that it uses to conquer non-suspecting ...

Introduction

Gaelic is a Celtic language that includes the speech of ancient Ireland and the dialects that have developed from it, especially those usually known as Irish, Manx and Scots Gaelic. Gaelic constitutes the Goidelic subbranch of Celtic (Dictionary.com, 2012). Scottish Gaelic is very similar to Irish and Manx, which are both Celtic languages. Gaelic also resembles some other languages such as Welsh and Breton. The phonetics of Gaelic are said to be more complicated than English but once a person learns Gaelic, it is easier to figure out how a word is spoken, by its spelling. Currently, the language is used by a ...

A non-state actor can be defined as any entity that acts within the scope of international politics, but does not belong to a state structure. They do not have legal sovereignty over a specific group of people. The terrorist cell known as Hezbollah qualifies as a violent non-state actor; it is an independent militant group based in Lebanon whose goal is to free the borders of Palestine from the "Zionist entity" that is Israel (Saad-Gohrayeb, 2002). The Israel-Lebanese conflict as a whole involved a number of other nonstate actors, primarily terrorist and extremist militias such as the Amal, SSNP, LCP and PFLP-GC. These non-state ...

Every historical event has its reasons, prerequisites, characteristics of development and further consequences. Particular feature of historical events is that their meaning changes with each epoch’s interpretation of it. There were events which contemporary scholars called insignificant and even harmful for the development of their society. On the other hand, representatives of the next generations would consider those events essential for the development of modern social order which is more advanced and democratic than the former one. In other words, history is an interpretative science and it gains new half-color each time scholar from a new epoch looks into ...

Africa and the metropole

Africa had always been a land less explored and much talked about during the imperial age and the age of discovery that preceded it. The reason being the vicinity of the African continent to Europe and the number of times the peninsula is circum-navigated during explorations. It was only rumoured that past Egypt and the Sahara desert, great African kingdoms lay inland, rich and full of resources. In this essay, we will see how the allure of Africa has led to one final push in the colonial era, causing a scramble for territory and the exertion of inhumane will in the ...

The notion that each of Shakespeare’s tragic heroes must have single easy-to-define tragic flaw can be traced to the writing of A C Bradley (Gibson 2002 p 87) and there has been general critical agreement that Hamlet’s ‘flaw’ is hesitation and that he delays taking revenge on Claudius because he vacillates and is uncertain. It is true as well that in the play itself hamlet criticizes himself or this very trait. Hamlet in Act 4, scene 4 watches Fortinbras’s army cross the stage on their way to fight over Norwegian possession of a disputed piece of land in ...

The economic and political partnership known as the European Union was established following World War II in order to foster cooperation among European nations. Today, the EU is made up of 28 member countries which all share in various economic agreements regarding their relationships with one another. The political union was established with the goal of not only promoting trade in order to reduce the likelihood for war to break out once more within Europe, but also to establish a basis by which the member nations could work with one another in order to increase their overall prosperity.

The Autumn Statement is a traditional statement made by the government that serves as a financial report. It is the second made every year, with the first being the Spring Budget. It is given by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who provides MPs with information about the United Kingdom’s taxation and spending (BBC, 2016). Traditionally, the Budget dealt primarily with taxation while the Statement focuses more on department allocation.

Subsequent to the entrance in into World War I by the Ottoman Empire, the then first Lord of the Admiralty, Sir Winston Churchill constructed a plan for raiding the Dardanelles (Gallipoli). Employing the Royal Navy ships, Churchill considered, partly owing to faulty intelligence, that the channels could be forced through, creating the way for an on spot attack on Constantinople. This arrangement was endorsed and many Royal Navy's battleships were reassigned to the Mediterranean. Actions against the Dardanelles started on February 19, 1915, Admiral Sir Sackville Carden British ships bombing Turkish resistances with small result (Gillam 56).
A subsequent ...

Argumentative Essay

Military innovation contributes to the success of states in war. However, it has been shown in the literature that the U.S. and Britain failed to significantly innovate or revolutionize their military in the interwar period. This paper argues that this failure is primarily rooted in two major factors: anti-militarism attitudes, and a military culture that disregards the usefulness of past military experiences to future wars. During the interwar period, few refuted the importance of mechanized, powered means of transportation and tanks. The debate revolved around whether this technology could be integrated into traditional processes or strategies or whether more ...

NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS

Robert Schuman’s notable phrase “Never war between us” is one of the most critically acclaimed lessons learned by most Europeans with regards to the topic of European unification and integration. This lesson became Schuman’s main foundation in declaring the start of integration in his 1950 speech in the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community. It can be noted that European integration, through the ECSC, started on a plan to control resources and production. This was also seen in the evolution of the European Defence Community and later the European Economic Community and the European Atomic Energy ...

Evolutions in Terrorism need Evolutions in Approach

Introduction
Terrorism being a highly volatile phenomenon with constantly changing facets, has been a challenge to scholars to define. While the term was once associated with honour and the struggle for freedom, it is today viewed in an extremely negative light. Violence has always been the predominant characteristic of an act of terrorism, however, terrorism today has moved on to non-violent realms in the form of cyber attacks, which are, never the less, harmful to the economy. Terrorists are generally viewed as psychopaths and lunatics who are driven by personal agenda, resorting to violence against innocents in order to vent ...

Many scholars consider modern democratic government "inevitably' as party government. The attitude that democracy is inevitable is somewhat idealistic according to Philip Slater and Warren G. Bennie of the Harvard Business Review [ CITATION Sla90 \l 1033 ]. In an article posted on HBR’s website entitled, “Democracy is Inevitable,” they write that democracy, ”reflects a state of mind (sic) that is by no means peculiar to business people but characterizes all Americans, if not perhaps all citizens of democracies [ CITATION Sla90 \l 1033 ]. The article further states that democracy has been almost universally embraced because of the idealistic notion that everyone ...

Discovery of Americas and its Impact on Commerce, Navigation, and Industrialization

Introduction
The European exploration efforts and the subsequent discovery of the Americans was in the simplest terms, a capitalistic venture. Of course, it was accidental, but its primary goal had been to find a new sea route to the orient. The European desire to make more profits by cutting out the Arabs and Turkish nations from the trade is typical of any capitalistic venture. In addition, the idealistic desire to expand the horizons of the European reach coupled with the optimistic search for a completely new way of reaching the Orient was demonstrated in the efforts of Columbus and ...

Over recent years, there has been much debate as to whether evolution rather than, or in addition to, creationism should be taught in public schools. There are many groups and individuals on both side of the argument. Interestingly, some scientists are in favour of the teaching of creationism, though the vast majority are not. Although it is generally agreed that there is no scientific fact to support the notion of creationism, many believe that it should be taught to students as an alternative viewpoint. However, evolution is scientifically proven and therefore all children in public schools should be taught ...

Abstract

The issue of whether creationism should be taught in schools is one of contention. Many people believe that as many people believe in creationism, it should therefore be part of education and, in particular, part of science lessons in schools. However, there is strong opposition to this, mainly with the argument that creationism is not based on scientific fact and therefore should not be part of a science lesson. Overall, it appears that creationism should be taught as a world view in religious education classes, but not in science subjects.

Over recent years, there has been much debate as to whether creationism ...

Vaping vs. Tobacco

Introduction
Vaping vs. Tobacco

The financial issue is one of the major areas that are highly debated when discussing vaping and tobacco. Various states have large tracks of a tobacco plantation and that the amount of tobacco sold forms more substantial portion of the country's revenue. Smoking is known to create tremendous wealth, majorly for the government, which has been the leading cause of all conflict of interest. Government revenue is, to a greater percentage, connected to cigarette sales. Tobacco forms a larger part of revenue for huge transnational industries, which results to external factors having a strong influence ...

Opportunity or Threat

The demographic change in the United Kingdom cannot be looked at as a less productive workforce only but as an opportunity for creating more experienced businesses. The article “British workforces 'not geared up' to employ older workers” (et al. 2012), written by Louisa Peacock expresses the fear that older workforces will be less productive due to respiratory issues. To the contrary, the article “50 and not out”, tells us how older people in the UK have shown high interest in starting businesses and have been highly successful. There are both positive and negative factors about age in relation to workforce.

Thesis Statement
Thomas Jefferson’s Query XIV Laws is quite different from Phyllis Wheatley’s Poems, in that, while both of them targeted slavery and its abolishment, Jefferson’s views are expressed by a person from the outside, while Phyllis’ views are personal. While Jefferson makes comparisons to show that slavery in America was not as bad, Phyllis makes a direct appeal to abolish slavery.
President of the United States, President Barak Obama, in one of his speeches said that he thought the need of the hour for all Americans, black or white, was to shun their differences and ...

There are various similarities and differences in the lead-up to the Texas and American Revolution. From the outset it is important to note that prior to the Revolutions, Texas and America were colonies. Accordingly, the two revolutions were caused by the need to be free from external interference in the running of the affairs of the respective State and country. The Texas Revolution was motivated by the need for the State to free itself from the Spanish colonial rule and later from the control of its affairs by the Mexican government which considered Texas to be part of its ...

EU Common Security and Defense Policy

Increasing threats of the terrorism and insecurity have thrown the world into a frantic run of securing countries and regions. For the last few years, many countries have anchored their primary policies around the issue of security.

To ensure increased protection of the citizens, governments, and regional blocs have taken to developing systems and policies that safeguard the people from acts of terrorism and insecurity.
However, these policies are confronted with challenges and obstacles ...

Part I

The theory of hegemonic stability is a theoretical modification of the common observation in post-world war II international relations. United States control was the key player in the successful world capitalist economy after 1945. Us in the late 1940s possessed not only prestige and unrivaled power, but also it had a purpose. America in three decades had intervened in two destructive wars after which it decide to remodel the formation of international economic and political relations in such a consistent way with its interest and liberal ideals. GATT-based multilateral trade and Bretton Woods international monetary regimes were the main legacies of the ...

There are many societies all over the world that have created different programs and paths that they set out to follow in the quest for a more peaceful society. The peace that the societies search for may differ from one society to another. However, these societies always have in mind the creation of a perfect place to live in where there are little or no problems where every member of the society lives in unending bliss. Many scholars have named this method of society creation as utopianism. Utopia emphasizes on different aspects of the society as the architects of the type ...
