1) The document presents a neoclassical realist analysis of US-Russia relations, arguing that current tensions do not constitute a "New Cold War". 2) It uses case studies of the Cuban Missile Crisis and Ukraine Crisis, as well as analyses of Obama and Putin's speeches and operational codes, to argue that economic, military, and political conditions differ from the Cold War. 3) While Putin's operational code suggests unclear intentions, framing relations in a confrontational framework is dangerous. The document concludes Western powers must respect Russia's desire for influence to avoid further escalating tensions.

Part 1Primary readings for this module deal with three cases of.docx

herbertwilson5999

Part 1: Primary readings for this module deal with three cases of NRMs that ended in violence: the People's Temple, the Branch Davidians, and the UFO cult, Heaven's Gate. As you read these documents, think about wether you can identify the factors that Dawson argues predispose an NRM to violence. · In the three case studies (the People's Temple, the Branch Davidians, Heaven's Gate), what was the role of apocalyptic thinking in their violent end? · In the three case studies (the People's Temple, the Branch Davidians, Heaven's Gate), what was the role of charismatic leadership in their violent end? Part 2: Write a brief (200 word essay) on only 2 of the following five essay topics: 1. What are some of the stereotypes about people who join NRMs? Why do you think such stereotypes develop? 2. In chapter three, Dawson reframes the problem of the rise of NRMs during the late 1960s and ‘70s using the admittedly highly abstract theories of sociologist Anthony Giddens. Summarize Dawson’s use of Giddens in your own words. How is this approach different from Dawson’s account of the importance of the social context for the rise of NRMs presented earlier in the chapter? 3. Based on the discussion in Dawson, briefly outline William McLoughlin’s theory of periodic religious revivals in the United States. What does McLoughlin think about the prospect of future revivals? 4. Pick three of the demographic categories that scholars have applied to NRMs and discuss and evaluate the theories scholars have given for their findings in each category (e.g. the youth of most NRM converts is due to the fact that this is a time when people lack real world responsibilities). 5. Are sociologists of religion justified in ignoring or discounting the reasons members give for joining an NRM in favor of unconscious motivations? Part 3: Write a brief (200 word essay) on only 2 of the following four ssay topics: 1. Pick three of Dawson’s arguments against the reality of brainwashing in NRMs, outline his claims, and based on what you know, evaluate his arguments. 2. Why do some NRMs focus on sex and the regulation of their members’ sexuality as important? How is this different than mainstream religious movements? 3. Should society at large be especially concerned with expressions of sexuality among consenting adults within new religious movements? 4. At the end of chapter six, Dawson presents the work of Angela Aidala and others that give another, perhaps more positive interpretation for why more women than men join NRMs. Outline Aidala et al. line of argument? How is this different from the other theory of gender disparity presented earlier in the chapter (and reproduced in the mini-lecture above). .

The Modernist movement and the Harlem Renaissance both emerged i.docx

laurieellan

The Modernist movement and the Harlem Renaissance both emerged in the early 20th century. Both of these movements fundamentally changed American literature, but they were very different in their goals, methods, and styles and in the communities they served. In some cases, they were influenced by the same social trends; in other cases they were writing in response to very different trends and experiences. Create a 12- to 16-slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation that sorts out those two complex movements. Address the following in your presentation: Identify the major authors and works of the Modernist movement. Identify the major authors and works of the Harlem Renaissance. Describe how the Modernist movement affected American literature and culture. Describe how the Harlem Renaissance affected American literature and culture. Analyze which political, economic, technological, and ideological factors shaped these movements. Explain how each of the movements was new. Analyze how these two movements related to one another. As you address this final point, you might consider the following questions: Were these movements completely distinct and independent of each other? Or did they both respond to similar social forces? Is the Harlem Renaissance just a subset of Modernism? Is Modernism a rejection of the social focus of the Harlem Renaissance? Integrate photos, illustrations, or multimedia according to your own creative ideas. Document the source of each media item you include. Format your presentation as directed by your instructor. Include citations in the speaker notes or in a separate reference or works-cited list. Deliver your presentation, and submit your presentation file or link to the Assignment Files tab. ...

Cultural studies is an approach to examining media representations that analyzes texts within their social and historical contexts. Scholars have used cultural studies to analyze how films and television shows represent teenagers. Specifically, they have examined depictions of gender, sexuality, and social politics. One show like Euphoria, Pretty Little Liars, or Gossip Girl would be analyzed to advance a new argument about its cultural representations of teenage gender and sexuality. A cultural studies approach provides insights that may be absent from other analytical methods.

This document provides an agenda and background information for an EWRT 1C class discussing literary theory, specifically feminist criticism. It begins with an overview of intrinsic and extrinsic literary theories, defining intrinsic as focusing on a work's essence in isolation and extrinsic as relating a work to its external context. It then discusses feminist criticism, which examines how literature reinforces or undermines the patriarchal oppression of women. It provides context on the waves of feminism and objectives of feminist criticism, including developing a female literary tradition.

Rhetorical Analysis Essay Prompt Purpose Informative! Your argument will be based on your use of analytical reasoning and specific evidence. Your genre is academic essay, and so you will produce a thesis-driven analysis, complemented by secondary sources, about World War Z . Assignment Now that we've talked a little bit about genre, let's talk about historical context and/or audience . Or both! This time, you must write a rhetorical analysis about World War Z and how it reflects/comments on its historical situation or cultural context, either as a) a function of its genre (because that's what horror does), or b) by specific appeals to its original audience. You can choose a specific section (like "Blame") to focus on, or write about a particular character or set of characters, or trace one character's development through the novel (like Todd Wainio, who has three interviews devoted to him). This may require you to read ahead. You may use pieces of your CRRP, revised and repurposed as necessary. You may also write something entirely new. Think of yourself as joining a conversation about WWZ and zombies and the cultural relevance of zombie apocalypse fiction. To that end, you must include at least three secondary sources, which can include the articles from class. Expect to do a little research. You need credible sources ( not Wikipedia). Basic requirements The length of the essay should be 6-7 pages. It will be typed and double-spaced, and presented in MLA format. A total of three (3) secondary sources, not including World War Z , must be used to develop the essay. You can use the articles from class, if appropriate. A working bibliography with source annotations (again, you can use the ones we did in class, if they're appropriate!) will be required as part of the final draft. The Teacher's comment: I think you need to do a little reorganizing. Your intro needs to show how Dawn and WWZ connect to each other through your thesis. It sounds like you want to show how the scientist in Dawn brings no hope, and thus people resist him, and contrast that with Elliot. Make that clear in the intro. I think you also should focus more on Elliot himself, and his POV/character/details, and connect that to the Golden Age analysis. I see the connection, and I think you do, but it's not actually written there on the page. A Working Thesis In Three Steps 1. Choose Z your rhetorical frame--genre, historical context, audience. (There may be overlap). This is the why . 2. Find X and Y X: What the text is communicating Y: How the text is communicating (the rhetorical device(s) used by the rhetor to present the What to the audience -- cultural references, imagery, POV, particular scenes or characters) 3. Describe how X, Y, and Z are related in as much detail as possible. X: critique of American values and consumerism and the Bush administration Y: Troy, Montana/Mary Jo Miller (from "Blame")--uses a "successful" woman (home, family, disposabl.

FINAL EXAM AMH 1020 Pick THREE questions and answer them using well thought out essays. Your essays should be from one and a half to two pages in length. Your exam is due no later than 11:59 PM. DECEMBER 7 and should be submitted to CANVAS. I’m sorry I cannot grant any extensions for this exam. I am literally giving you to the last minute to write and submit the exam—there is absolutely no leeway, so please, get your essay in by the due date and GOOD LUCK! Discuss McCarthyism during the 1950s. What were its root causes? What were its effects? In what ways did it reflect the culture of the late 1940s-early 1950s? Discuss the US posture of isolationism prior to the Second World War. What were some of the reasons for the US taking this political position and why were they significant? How did Roosevelt steer the US towards war? Compare and contrast the Cold War foreign policies of Truman, Eisenhower, and Kennedy. What points did they have in common and how did they differ. Hint: Examining how these men handled their flashpoints: the Korean Conflict, the Suez and Hungarian crises, and the Cuban Missile Crisis, and how Kennedy handled Vietnam will help you in answering this question. Evaluate the struggle for civil rights during the late 1950s and 1960s. In your answer, you should discuss the role played by groups and organizations such as the Ku Klux Klan and the NAACP, and the impact of Supreme Court rulings, legislative acts, and executive actions as well as the impact of individuals such as Martin Luther King. The 1950s have been described as an era of conformity. Do you agree or disagree with this statement. Support your position While Roosevelt’s New Deal is generally credited with ending the Great Depression, a substantial body of historians view it in a more negative light, arguing that some of his programs actually hampered recovery. Which position do you think is the better interpretation? Why or why not? .

Annah

This document discusses Hunter S. Thompson's linguistic strategies in his political commentaries. It analyzes how Thompson uses discourse and language to assert power and control perceptions. Specifically, it examines his use of coercion through imperatives and hate language with derogatory labels. Thompson employs commands like "never forget" coupled with negative consequences to suggest readers accept his view. He also uses terms like "A-rab", "rich nerds", and "lawyers" to distance and insult targets, promoting negative stereotypes. Through these techniques, the document argues Thompson works to establish his views and limit other perspectives for his readers.

It discusses theories of critical discourse analysis and argumentation that will be applied, including Van Dijk's three-level analysis of meaning, argumentation, and rhetoric. The abstract concludes by stating the debates will be analyzed to reveal manipulative language focusing on a civilized "us" and terrorist "them".

Karl Marx argues that commodities have become "fetishized." Commodities take on social characteristics and meanings beyond their use value. People relate to each other through commodity exchange rather than directly. Commodities seem to have a magical power over people. Marx was pointing out how capitalism alienates people from each other and the products of their labor through the commodity form and market exchange.

Please note that the pagination of the online version will vary from the pagination of the print book. javascript:void(0); http://dx.doi.org/10.4135/9781412952552.n57 Conflict theorizing originated in Europe in the works of Karl Marx, Max Weber, and Georg Simmel. In its more modern guise, conflict theory is an American invention, despite the fact that its reemergence in the mid-twentieth century was inspired by European and European- origin critics of structural functionalism. Early criticisms of functionalism came from David Lockwood and Ralf Dahrendorf, who argued that functional theory, especially the version practiced by Talcott Parsons, presented an overly integrated view of social organization that could not account for conflict and change. This critique was buttressed by immigrant critical theorists and, curiously, by Lewis Coser, another European immigrant, who argued that both conflict and functional theories were too extreme, requiring an assessment of the functions of conflict. These criticisms became ritualistic attacks on functionalism as American academia emerged from the repression of Marxist (communist-sounding) thought during the McCarthy era in the 1950s and as the student unrest of the 1960s accelerated during the course of the Vietnam War. Functionalism was seen as ideologically conservative and as providing justification for the status quo. All of these criticisms were overdrawn, and most did not lead to new theorizing but, instead, caused the collapse of functional theorizing, especially the action theory of Talcott Parsons. Yet the critique of functionalism did legitimate a revival of the European conflict tradition in the United States; and by the mid-1970s, Marx's and Weber's approaches were being recast into modern conflict theory, with occasional use of Simmel's ideas. Three lines of conflict theorizing emerged in America, two devoted to reviving Marx and Weber (again, with Simmelian elements) and a third combining elements of both Marx and Weber. These can be labeled, for convenience, neo-Marxist, neo-Weberian, a n d historical-comparative conflict theory. Alongside these general theories were more specific theories associated with social movements and identity politics (e.g., ethnicity and gender). Critical theorizing, however, did not enjoy the same revival in America, remaining predominately a European enterprise or being incorporated into the revival of Marxian conflict theory. Neo-Marxi ...
