Danielle McDonald Mr Auld What is Fascism? Fascism
is a word with no objective definition. How do you
define something based so heavily on opinions?
Each person has their own opinion on the issue and
they vary so distinctly from one to another we
cannot pin-point an exact meaning for the term. We

insidious works of literature ever written. An
exaggeration? Tragically, no. Brave New World has
come to serve as the false symbol for any regime
of universal happiness. For sure, Huxley was
writing a satirical piece of fiction, not
scientific prophecy. Hence to treat his writing as
ill-conceived futurology rather than a work of
great literature might seem to miss the point. Yet
the knee-jerk response of Its Brave New World! to
any blueprint for chemical...

understanding of the Revolution by placing it in
its European context, by showing how it affected
and was affected by Frances neighbors. He is

development required access to the markets and raw
materials of Southeast Asia. This apprehension, an
overestimation of American power, and an
underestimation of Vietnamese communist strength
