Of course, neither of the two provides a comprehensive view of the complex notion of politics, yet both complement the concept with precious meaning.

Furthermore, the perception of governance through the prism of virtuous leaders, as done by ethics scholars, such as al-Farabi, allows people to perceive politics as a unique ...

In many cases, programs to be funded are based on how strong their proponents are in advocating for their cause(s). If a program has no assigned proponent to lobby for its full financial support, it will be disregarded in ...

Worker Alienation in a Modern Economy

The term “worker alienation” was coined by Karl Marx decades ago. Built on the principles of capitalism and socialism, it addresses the concept that workers feel apart from the products of their labor. The result is a loss of his sense of humanity.

Indian Boarding Schools

After the effective defeat of the Indians and their subjugation in the name of manifest destiny, American reformers (including The Friends of the Indian) sought to “Americanize” Native Americans by refocusing land ownership through allotment of private property as opposed to attributing lands to tribes.
