Essays on Republic

The principles by James Madison in Federalist # 10 are better placed in accomplishing unity than those suggested by Cato. A large extended republic gives individuals the freedom of movement. As individuals move from one place to another, they interact with people who have different interests and cultures. It is only by such interaction that people understand the cultures and interests of other people and this enhances the establishment of unity. Having an extended republic may not look good in the short-term because of the evident divisions, but it is the answer to unity in the longer term. This is ...

The legal gaps make it difficult for the UN to hold personnel accountable for crimes committed in the missions under its jurisdiction. The UN personnel are being currently accountable only to their countries and their legislation or being protected by the international legal statute of immunity. The lack of accountability makes the whole organization less credible and reliable. With two different groups of UN personnel the troop contributing countries ...

The view of anarchists stray away from the commons masses and more often they tend to go extreme and cause social disturbance and unrest (Gage, 2009)as was the case of the ...

During the early fifties, hostilities between the two halves of the country reached breaking point, and the Korean War broke out, with the People’s Democratic Republic of Korea attempting to reunify the country by conquering South Korea, and the American army attempting to ...

Further, certain organizations offer banking-like services to its members, such as credit unions and savings and loans associations (S&Ls). Thus, to manage this typological complexity, this explorative paper covers only primary forms described in its most typical ...

Plato held the belief, illustrated by his use of the analogy of the Cave, that we live in a world of illusions, with the true forms of the everyday objects which surround us being shrouded behind said illusions. According to his own philosophy, every object or concept (such as beauty or goodness) has a truth behind it; one which is perfect in every way. Furthering this idea, Plato believed that behind the world of illusions we live in which clouds our ability to see the true world, is a world which is populated by all those perfect forms of ...

Does the Theory of the Tripartite Soul Give Us Good Reason to be Just?

Introduction The well-known philosopher of Ancient Greece, Plato, presented the theory of the tripartite soul. However, the ideas, which consider the components of the soul to depend on the social system or have an impact on the human behavior, can as well belong to another genius of the same time, Socrates. Plato and Socrates, as two of the most prominent minds of the ancient times, questioned the features of the human personality under the terms of the natural instincts and the characteristics, which all people get with birth. In fact, all the thoughts of these two masters stand on ...

In Book VII of The Republic, now remembered as Plato’s greatest work, he talks of the benefits of an education and especially for those who are to govern a state. In this book, he relates most people to prisoners in a cave whose hands and legs are fettered. There’s no question that since they have been imprisoned in that cave since childhood, this is their interpretation of ‘reality’ and life which is not true if they get a chance to see the sun in broad daylight and in all its glory. Being able to see the light ...

Business Memo

Re:

Introduction

In light of the scandal regarding Stephen Glass’ fabricated article - 27 articles out of 41 articles - this memo is to provide a clear explanation as to what happened along with recommendations as to what needs to be done going forward.

Cornell University, Country in Arial 9 Roxanne Grenier North America Abstract As of 2014, 38 million people worldwide have been driven out of their own homes by internal instabilities, armed conflict, and outbreaks of violence.

The theme of a ‘utopia’ – a place which is normally defined as the ideal state or place to live, is something which has captured the minds of writers and philosophers for centuries. The word ‘utopia’ itself is something of a word-play – in Greek, the word as sounded could mean either ευ-τοπος (good-place) or ου-τοπος (no-place), and the debate over which interpretation is correct is something which has lasted for almost as long as the concept of utopia itself! Plato’s Republic is a book which delineates in fine detail the republic that Plato has envisaged for his countrymen, detailing ...

The following primary documents include two antifederalist essays and three federalist essays that were published in newspapers three to six months following the Constitutional Convention. The antifederalists aimed to convince the states that the new constitution would not work while the federalists hoped to gain support and ratification of the new constitution.

Introduction

The distinction between how the West and the East control their local affairs, and how they organize their institutions is enormous. In a normal context, though, even two states in similar vicinity exhibit major differences in individual economic policies, religious inclination, and political systems. Notwithstanding that, it is important to appreciate the similarities and dissimilarities that manifest due to the location in certain regions. The case of Saudi Arabia and France is a good one to understand how regional influences affect, the systems of government, political institutions, faith and economic policies of a state. For instance, the Saudi Arabia ...

Of the world’s many disputed regions, perhaps none is as unique as Kosovo. To be sure, depending on one’s national origin, ethnicity, religion, legal-historical perspective or political point of view, especially if you live in or are from southeastern Europe, Kosovo is either an independent nation or it is a province, albeit autonomous province, of the Republic of Serbia. The starting point to these differences in understand about Serbia is most likely 1389 and the Battle of Kosovo.

Irving Kristol makes a solid argument for why the political institutions of America are successful. However, there are some large gaps within the logic that can be argued. It is true that many feel strongly about the American way of life, and that this may be in our bones. But, this does not prove the effectiveness of political institutions. Instead, it proves the effectiveness of our culture’s ability to socialize those within. The socialization through culture is a specific area of study for Anthropologists, arguably proving this to be a true aspect of society, especially in America. Thus, ...

1) What is the name of your city, town or village and where did this name come from? Note, there may also be an informal name, that is a name that local people refer to it. You may also discuss any name changes over time and the reasons for these name changes. In that case, if the word Veneti has the Indo-European origin, it means “famous”, but if we consider this word with the pre-Indo origin, it means “foreigners” or “new comers” (nuovi venuti). Perhaps the name of the Veneto is from the word “new comers”. In this case, ...

“Et tu, Brute?” Many people recognize this pithy question as Julius Caesar’s last words upon seeing Roman senator Marcus Julius Brutus, with whom he had a relationship akin to that of a father and son, among his murderers on March 15, 44 BC. The phrase roughly translates to, “You too, Brutus?”. However, there is no historical evidence these were Caesar’s last words; more likely; they were popularized by William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar in the sixteenth century. Known as the Ides of March, Caesar’s death is one of the most famous political overthrows in all of ...

Colonies wanted to get rid of the taxes imposed by the British government. Despite all this, in the 60’s of the 18th century colonial oppression increased. ...
