    992 words
    The Female Question: Envision Emancipation, or Sustain Subordination "It is like the case of a caged bird: of course there is no freedom in the cage, but if it leaves the cage there are hawks, cats, and other hazards outside; while if imprisonment has atrophied its wings, or if it has forgotten how to fly, there certainly is nowhere it can go" (Fong & Lan, 177). In Lu Xun's essay on "What Happens After Nora Leaves Home", I find it imperative to open our eyes, minds and hearts in order to refine ...
  • Order For True Political Equality
    1,056 words
    The economic system of the United States is modeled after the theory of capitalism. Capitalism supports free enterprise - private business operating without government regulation (Janada 22). The United States does regulate private business. Sometimes special circumstances arise which threaten to weaken the overall economic stability of the country. In order to sufficiently deal with these situations, the United States government has passed many laws granting certain groups the authority to brin...

  • Unchallenged Rule Of Social Order
    512 words
    Social Order Versus Personal Fulfillment In the regal, and superficial high-class New York world presented in The Age of Innocence there is one particular, unchallenged rule of social order. This rule of complete social grace has been, instead of branded in stone, been impounded deeply in the minds of every generation raised under the canopy of money and fashion. The desire for etiquette is so overwhelming that it manages to suppress the simple human yearnings for personal fulfillment, otherwise...
  • Marion Bolam And Peter Nagle
    1,521 words
    One of the basic assumptions underlying any detective novel is a sense of social order. The novelist assumes that the reader agrees that killing people is wrong; it does not matter if the victims are exemplary citizens or odious individuals, it is the mere act of snuffing out another's life that is against the social order. In P.D. James' A Mind To Murder, Nurse Marion Bolam's murder of her stuffy and self-righteous cousin Enid illustrates a situation where the nurse and her invalid mother had s...
  • Effect Of Government On The Social Order
    1,967 words
    "Government in China: three perspectives " In the Ming period of government in China, it is evident that the characteristics and learning of the emperor are essential to the essence of good government. Under the Confucian system, it was vital to conform to the strict hierarchical structure of the social and political codes which formed the foundation of the system: therefore, the basis of good government was something which permeated all levels of society but was ultimately inspired by, and dict...
  • Branch Of The Government The Power
    1,314 words
    A social order. A person's beliefs and values that allow them to make the choices that to have the type of government they want. My social order- one of an African-American, 17-year-old, low middle-class female-will differ widely from my mother's, or Shemair's, or even your social order. For instance, I strongly value education. So does my mother, Shemair, and I am sure you do, too. My mother might value my education because it will help her later on in life. Shemair might value my education bec...
  • Economic Order Shapes Society
    637 words
    Two major approaches to contemporary social theory are the Marxian materialist approach and the structural functionalist approach. The materialist approach was developed from the work of Karl Marx, who believed that the economic order shapes society. The functionalist approach was developed from the work of Comte and Durkheim, stating that is the combination of all of society's institutions that shapes society. An organic analogy is most often used to explain structural functionalism. The analog...
  • Envy
    296 words
    Social Aspects of Envy As all emotions, envy is socially constructed. Individual interaction, class variation and social institutions like schools, family, religion, and politics define envy for us. Envy is dependent on the beliefs about wealth, status, power, and how they ought to be distributed. In less complex societies envious objects are food, babies, and health; but in more complex societies they are wealth, status, and power. Envy, which is often mislabeled as jealousy, is hostility towar...
  • Dichotomy Between Pentheus And Dionysus
    490 words
    Moral-Social Values in The Bacchae One prevailing argument about The Bacchae as with many of his other works is whether Euripides propounds a revolutionary or a reactionary message about society. This outlook, however, is skirting an essential element of The Bacchae's theme. The moral-social values affirmed in Euripedes' play are political only so far as philosophy itself is political. Euripides investigates the dichotomy between Pentheus and Dionysus. This conflict is used as a medium for comme...
  • Innocent In Order
    941 words
    One of the most awful chapters in human history, timeless oppression. Parallels between The Crucible, and more modern examples of "witch hunting" such as the McCarthy hearings of the 1950's, are appalling. Other such time periods in history, including the 1940's Japanese American Internment era, the Apartheid struggle of South Africa, or Hitlers horrid Holocaust, all exemplify persecution and discrimination similarly. Each in the midst of a poignant theme, societies often trying to suppress indi...
