Second World War Margaret Thatcher
2,448 wordsCompare and Contrast of the 1950 s and 1970 s UK Economy Historical writing about the British Welfare State has tended to stress the eventual triumph of collectivism over individualism.

French play rights have often used the stage to express their views, and these views came to surface even during a Nazi occupation.

Second World War East And West
2,396 wordsCold War The Cold War was the result of Stalin adopting a policy contrary to the Yalta Agreement. Certainly to many supporters of the Orthodox view, this statement will appear rather obvious.

The fact that Stalin adopted a, in their opinion aggressive, policy was not so much the result of security, but the expansionist nature of Lenin-Mar...

Due To The Fact Creation Myths
2,315 wordsThe motifs found in the creation myths are undoubtedly different from those found in any other type of myth. Contrary to popular belief, the purpose of the creation myths is much greater than a primitive attempt to explain the mysteries of creation. Behind each creation myth is a vast variety of symbolism along with a number of motives which are often shared between cultures, despite vast geographical differences. My intention here is not only to discuss the purpose of the creation myths, but al...
