Social essay
This document discusses the tension between individual rights and liberties, and the role of government in ensuring security and order. It argues that disregarding individual rights conflicts with liberal principles of citizen participation and dignity. However, governments may justify limiting rights in emergencies to benefit society. The French Revolution is used as an example of what can happen when citizen rights and dignity are severely restricted, fueling radicalism and revolution. Ultimately, the document says there are no absolutes, but governments should generally respect rights while recognizing exceptions in times of war or crisis may allow rights to be breached without precedent.

Measuring internal communication
The document discusses internal organizational communication from both management and employee perspectives. It summarizes 12 studies involving over 10,000 employees. While over half of employees felt informed about the organization's direction, fewer felt that senior managers clearly communicated this or were involved in sharing information. There is more focus on the volume of communication rather than the understanding and content. The document also presents questions that assess how informed and supported employees feel as well as challenges in evaluating newer communication tools like internal social media.

Individualism is an idea that has operated in numerous
countries for several hundred years or more. It is most often tied
to the United States, when Thomas Jefferson insisted the
government function as an entity that sought to serve the rights
and freedoms of the individual instead of to interfere with them
and provoked the authoring of the Bill of Rights. Jeffersonian
views were only partly individualist, however, since the Bill of
Rights did nothing to protect slaves or Native Americans. True
individualistic doctrine would oppose such a stance today.
Essentially, when a person endorses individualism, they believe
that the person's rights are far more important than the rights of
any collective group (government or society) provided those
rights are not exercised in a way that harms others. Exactly
what the definition of "harm" is, is a highly debatable issue. A
businessman who dumps pollutants into a lake might be viewed
as exercising harmful behavior or not, depending on
interpretation. Some individualists may argue against taxes
collected to serve the common good, the necessity of public
schooling, regulatory agencies established by governments, or
any laws that inhibit rights. They would especially oppose the
idea that society was a collective unit (often called collectivism),
and that people needed legislation to be responsible or to take
care of each other.
Interestingly, individualism is frequently associated with the
extreme right in the US, but this is not an easy marriage. While
the extreme right frequently seek ...

The document discusses how memories of the past shaped the characters in A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen. Nora was possessed by her father and based her actions on saving her husband, while Krogstad's damaged reputation motivated him until he moved on. The characters' past experiences profoundly impacted their sense of self and view of the world. They had to confront their pasts in order to grow.
economics essay
The document discusses different economic ideologies and their approaches to government intervention during economic downturns. A liberal view is that some government control is needed to stabilize the economy during extreme recessions, while rights should be restored as the economy recovers. The document also discusses John Maynard Keynes' view that increased government spending and decreased taxes are needed during recessions to stimulate the economy through consumer spending and demand for goods. The document examines debates around the appropriate level of government intervention in the economy between left and right perspectives.
The Condition of Being Human
The document discusses the human condition of vulnerability and what causes addiction. It states that while individuals cannot always be blamed for addiction, certain personality traits can make some more prone to addiction. Addiction affects the brain's reward system by flooding it with dopamine for a "high" that becomes increasingly needed over time. Theories suggest some individuals use drugs to self-medicate mental illnesses or cope with stress, trauma, or inability to express emotions normally. Abnormalities in social development can also contribute to addiction susceptibility if developmental milestones are missed. While most dangerous addictions are to drugs and alcohol, any rewarding activity can potentially become addictive.
Position Paper One
The document discusses the importance of upholding individual rights and freedoms even during times of conflict or threat. It argues that permanently restricting the rights of groups without cause violates liberal values. While security concerns may sometimes warrant temporary limits, precedents that ignore equality can enable future erosion of rights. The document cites examples like the internment of Japanese Canadians and the Treaty of Versailles, which punished Germany severely after WWI. This created conditions that allowed the rise of the Nazis and the removal of rights across Germany. Therefore, prioritizing security should not come at the cost of ignoring liberal principles of equality and individual freedom.

JRR Tolkien drew influences from his experiences, education, and the time period in which he lived that affected his writing of The Lord of the Rings. He was impacted by trips he took as a child, his study of languages at Oxford, and his experience in World War I where he fought in the trenches. Tolkien also disliked the industrialization and pollution of nature during the Industrial Revolution in England, which influenced his portrayal of Saruman. He based the elves, dwarves, and names like Gandalf on Norse and Germanic mythology.
What jrr tolkiens influences were and how these influences effected his writing
Tolkien drew influences from his experiences and education that shaped his writing of The Lord of the Rings. He took a trip to Switzerland as a student that later influenced the description of Bilbo's journey through the Misty Mountains in The Hobbit. His linguistic studies of ancient European languages also impacted the different races and languages he created in his works. Additionally, Tolkien's experience in World War I, including fighting in the bloody Battle of the Somme, influenced themes of evil powers and the triumph of underdogs in his books.
Dictatorship Characteristics Explained!
One: In a dictatorship, human and civil rights are not protected as dictators reject liberalism and do not need public support to retain power.
Two: Dictators often seize power through emergencies or revolution rather than elections, and citizens have no choice in the new leadership.
Three: Once in control, the dictator's choices alone influence the country regardless of public opinion or actions.
Liberalism Philosophers
The document discusses three influential political philosophers:
- Thomas Hobbes believed humans were selfish and needed an authoritarian ruler to maintain order. He saw the need for individuals to give up rights for protection and security.
- John Locke believed individuals were capable of reason and disagreed with the Church's authority. He advocated for a social contract where people received security and protection of property from the government, which should be accountable to the people.
- Jean-Jacques Rousseau opposed Locke's views of human nature and private property. He argued society and government should secure freedom, equality and justice for all regardless of the majority will.
