The document summarizes the key points of the Atlantic Charter and President Roosevelt's State of the Union address that outlined a vision for the postwar world. The Atlantic Charter established that no territorial gains would be sought and territorial adjustments would respect the wishes of local peoples. All people had a right to self-determination. The address defined four essential freedoms: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want through economic cooperation, and freedom from fear through global disarmament.

Military-Industrial Complex Speech, Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961
Public Papers of the Presidents, Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1960, p. 1035- 1040
My fellow Americans:
Three days from now, after half a century in the service of our country, I shall lay down the responsibilities of
office as, in traditional and solemn ceremony, the authority of the Presidency is vested in my successor.
This evening I come to you with a message of leave-taking and farewell, and to share a few final thoughts
with you, my countrymen.
Like every other citizen, I wish the new President, and all who will labor with him, Godspeed. I pray that the
coming years will be blessed with peace and prosperity for all.
Our people expect their President and the Congress to find essential agreement on issues of great moment, the
wise resolution of which will better shape the future of the Nation.
My own relations with the Congress, which began on a remote and tenuous basis when, long ago, a member
of the Senate appointed me to West Point, have since ranged to the intimate during the war and immediate
post-war period, and, finally, to the mutually interdependent during these past eight years.
In this final relationship, the Congress and the Administration have, on most vital issues, cooperated well, to
serve the national good rather than mere partisanship, and so have assured that the business of the Nation
should go forward. So, my official relationship with the Congress ends in a feeling, on my part, of gratitude
that we have been able to do so much together.
II.
We now stand ten years past the midpoint of a century that has witnessed four major wars among great
nations. Three of these involved our own country. Despite these holocausts America is today the strongest,
the most influential and most productive nation in the world. Understandably proud of this pre-eminence, we
yet realize that America's leadership and prestige depend, not merely upon our unmatched material progress,
riches and military strength, but on how we use our power in the interests of world peace and human
betterment.
III.
Throughout America's adventure in free government, our basic purposes have been to keep the peace; to
foster progress in human achievement, and to enhance liberty, dignity and integrity among people and among
nations. To strive for less would be unworthy of a free and religious people. Any failure traceable to
arrogance, or our lack of comprehension or readiness to sacrifice would inflict upon us grievous hurt both at
home and abroad.
Progress toward these noble goals is persistently threatened by the conflict now engulfing the world. It

Dwight D. Eisenhower, “Farewell Address to the Nation” (1961)
Document Background: On January 17, 1961, President Dwight D. Eisenhower gave his farewell address to the nation. Over the previous two decades, the United States had undergone numerous significant changes, including World War II, the beginning of the Cold War, the Korean War, the emergence of nuclear weapons, a rapidly growing economy, and several substantial Civil Rights victories. Eisenhower, as a general and then as president, had been at the center of many of these. In his farewell address, Eisenhower focused on the Cold War with the Soviet Union and on the challenges facing the United States, including a warning about the growing power of the “military-industrial complex.”

President Roosevelts Four Freedoms Speech (1941) To t.docx
President Roosevelt's "Four Freedoms" Speech (1941)
To the Congress of the United States:
I address you, the Members of the Seventy-Seventh Congress, at a moment unprecedented in the
history of the Union. I use the word "unprecedented," because at no previous time has American
security been as seriously threatened from without as it is today. . . .
It is true that prior to 1914 the United States often had been disturbed by events in other
Continents. We had even engaged in two wars with European nations and in a number of
undeclared wars in the West Indies, in the Mediterranean and in the Pacific for the maintenance
of American rights and for the principles of peaceful commerce. In no case, however, had a
serious threat been raised against our national safety or our independence.
What I seek to convey is the historic truth that the United States as a nation has at all times
maintained opposition to any attempt to lock us in behind an ancient Chinese wall while the
procession of civilization went past. Today, thinking of our children and their children, we
oppose enforced isolation for ourselves or for any part of the Americas.
Even when the World War broke out in 1914, it seemed to contain only small threat of danger to
our own American future. But, as time went on, the American people began to visualize what the
downfall of democratic nations might mean to our own democracy.
We need not over-emphasize imperfections in the Peace of Versailles. We need not harp on
failure of the democracies to deal with problems of world deconstruction. We should remember
that the Peace of 1919 was far less unjust than the kind of "pacification" which began even
before Munich, and which is being carried on under the new order of tyranny that seeks to spread
over every continent today. The American people have unalterably set their faces against that
tyranny.
Every realist knows that the democratic way of life is at this moment being directly assailed in
every part of the world—assailed either by arms, or by secret spreading of poisonous propaganda
by those who seek to destroy unity and promote discord in nations still at peace. During sixteen
months this assault has blotted out the whole pattern of democratic life in an appalling number of
independent nations, great and small. The assailants are still on the march, threatening other
nations, great and small.
Therefore, as your President, performing my constitutional duty to "give to the Congress
information of the state of the Union," I find it necessary to report that the future and the safety
of our country and of our democracy are overwhelmingly involved in events far beyond our
borders.
Armed defense of democratic existence is now being gallantly waged in four continents. If that
defense fails, all the population and all the resources of Europe, Asia, Africa and Australasia will
be dominated by the conquerors. The total of those populations and their resources g ...

Eisenhower's Farewell Address to the
Nation
January 17, 1961
Good evening, my fellow Americans: First, I should like to express my
gratitude to the radio and television networks for the opportunity they have
given me over the years to bring reports and messages to our nation. My special
thanks go to them for the opportunity of addressing you this evening.
Three days from now, after a half century of service of our country, I shall lay
down the responsibilities of office as, in traditional and solemn ceremony, the
authority of the Presidency is vested in my successor.
This evening I come to you with a message of leave-taking and farewell, and to share a few final thoughts
with you, my countrymen.
Like every other citizen, I wish the new President, and all who will labor with him, Godspeed. I pray that the
coming years will be blessed with peace and prosperity for all.
Our people expect their President and the Congress to find essential agreement on questions of great moment,
the wise resolution of which will better shape the future of the nation.
My own relations with Congress, which began on a remote and tenuous basis when, long ago, a member of
the Senate appointed me to West Point, have since ranged to the intimate during the war and immediate post-
war period, and finally to the mutually interdependent during these past eight years.
In this final relationship, the Congress and the Administration have, on most vital issues, cooperated well, to
serve the nation well rather than mere partisanship, and so have assured that the business of the nation should
go forward. So my official relationship with Congress ends in a feeling on my part, of gratitude that we have
been able to do so much together.
We now stand ten years past the midpoint of a century that has witnessed four major wars among great
nations. Three of these involved our own country. Despite these holocausts America is today the strongest,
the most influential and most productive nation in the world. Understandably proud of this pre-eminence, we
yet realize that America's leadership and prestige depend, not merely upon our unmatched material progress,
riches and military strength, but on how we use our power in the interests of world peace and human
betterment.
Throughout America's adventure in free government, such basic purposes have been to keep the peace; to
foster progress in human achievement, and to enhance liberty, dignity and integrity among peoples and
among nations.

How to prevent humanitarian debacle in the contemporary world
It is time for humanity to provide the most urgently possible of tools necessary to take control of their destiny and put in place a democratic governance of the world. This is the only way to end war and terrorism and, ultimately, stop the decay in the course of humanity. Democratic world governance is unbelievably necessary because there is no other means capable of building a world in which every woman, every man of today and tomorrow have the same rights and the same duties, and in which the interests of the planet and all nations, all forms of life and future generations, are finally taken into account.
How to prevent humanitarian debacle in the contemporary world
One observer aware of what happens in the world realizes that we live in a process of unprecedented economic, political and social breakdown in human history whose product has been widespread violence in all parts of the Earth. The main responsible of all this are, on the one hand, the chaotic capitalist economic system and on the other, the ungovernable international system. From its origins in the sixteenth century as a mode of production, capitalism has been characterized by barbarism which means savagery, cruelty, inhumanity, incivility. Massacres, genocides and multiple forms of human degradation characterize capitalism in its historical development. In turn, the international system has not prevented wars between great powers and imperialist action practiced by them for centuries against the peripheral capitalist countries even less establish world peace.

OUR SHARED VULNERABILITY
As K A New York investment banker who walks past Ground Zero
every day on her way to work what today's biggest threat is. Then ask
an illiterate 12-year-old orphan in Malawi who lost his parents to
AIDS. You Will get two very different answers. Invite an Indonesian
fisherman mourning the loss of his entire family and the destruction
of his village from the recent, devastating tsunami to tell you what he
fears most. Then ask a villager in Darfiur, stalked by murderous militias
and fearftil of bombing raids. Their answers, too, are likely to diverge.
Different perceptions of what is a threat are often the biggest
obstacles to international cooperation. But I believe that in the twenty
first century they should not be allowed to lead the world's governments
to pursue very different priorities or to work at cross-purposes. Today's
threats are deeply interconnected, and they feed off of one another. The
misery of people caught in unresolved civil conflicts or of populations
mired in extreme poverty, for example, may increase their attraction
to terrorism. The mass rape of women that occurs too often in today's
conflicts makes the spread of HIV and AIDS all the more likely.
In fact, all of us are vulnerable to what we think of as dangers that
threaten only other people. Millions more of sub-Saharan Africa's
inhabitants would plunge below the poverty line if a nuclear terrorist
attack against a financial center in the United States caused a massive
downturn in the global economy. By the same token, millions ofAmer
icans could quickly become infected if, naturally or through malicious

The 70 years of the universal declaration of human rights and the conquest of...
In spite of the repeated intentions of all the countries of the world to maintain world peace, the UN is failing to comply with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The failure of the League of Nations to build world peace after World War I is repeated with the UN after World War II. After World War II, history was repeated: the United Nations was founded and hopes for peace were renewed. Hopes, however, gave way to the Cold War between the United States and the former Soviet Union and to an endless series of localized wars, so numerous that they became part of our day-to-day lives.

Write 3-5 pages in which you discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic and shelter-in-place orders have impacted you personally, your family and friends, and society as a whole. Relate these impacts to one or more concepts, theory ( Karl Max, Emilie Durkheim, Max Weber, W.E.B. DuBois, Robert Merton, Michel Foucault.)
For example, write about classism and the impact staying at home has had on different classes of people (i.e. those who can work remotely at home vs. those who can’t work at all). You could also discuss new ways of connecting with others during this time, like Zoom, FaceTime, etc. Did social constructs change during this time? Will resocialization be an issue after the social distancing is relaxed? Or, you can talk about urban sociology and how Boston or your home city has changed due to the pandemic. Or, how has globalization changed? There are many possibilities – be creative!

Dwight D. Eisenhower, “Farewell Address to the Nation” (1961)
Document Background: On January 17, 1961, President Dwight D. Eisenhower gave his farewell address to the nation. Over the previous two decades, the United States had undergone numerous significant changes, including World War II, the beginning of the Cold War, the Korean War, the emergence of nuclear weapons, a rapidly growing economy, and several substantial Civil Rights victories. Eisenhower, as a general and then as president, had been at the center of many of these. In his farewell address, Eisenhower focused on the Cold War with the Soviet Union and on the challenges facing the United States, including a warning about the growing power of the “military-industrial complex.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower:
I.
My fellow Americans:
Three days from now, after half a century in the service of our country, I shall lay down the responsibilities of office as, in traditional and solemn ceremony, the authority of the.
The Human rights protection in the world
The concept of human rights has evolved over centuries, driven by a growing understanding of
human dignity and the need to protect individuals from oppression and discrimination. While
ancient civilizations had some recognition of individual liberties, the modern concept of human
rights emerged in the wake of significant historical events.

Do Linguistics Still Matter in the Age of Large Language Models.pptxSlator- Language Industry Intelligence
In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.Mizzima Weekly Analysis & Insight Issue 1
