caused by the defense of constitutional rights and
liberties, but that of material conditions of life
in America were not very favorable and that social
and economic factors should be considered as the
driving factor that pushed many colonists to

Economic Crisis The French Revolution

A revolution can be described as a time when the
masses, consisting of ordinary men and women, grow
weary of the current political system and begin to
take their lives and destinies into their own
hands. Abraham Lincoln once commented about the
masses under a political system that, Whenever
they shall grow weary of the existing government,
they can exercise their revolutionary right to
overthrow it. This applies to many of the
uprisings in history, but it is especially
prevalent in the roots of ...

Political Science (1) Despite the fact that
Machiavelli's The Prince and Hobbes Leviathan were
written in time when it was being commonly assumed
that political power comes out of guns barrel,
these works contain proofs of authors
understanding that application of naked force
alone can hardly be effective, when it comes to

Clement Greenberg (1909 - 1995) 'Avant-Garde and
Kitsch' Clement Greenberg is an influential
twentieth century art critic, best known for his
promotion and defense of abstract expressionism.
In "Avant-Garde and Kitsch" (1939) he somewhat
paradoxically combined his socialist convictions
with a defense of avant-garde, abstract,
"non-objective" painting and poetry, even while
admitting that this art appealed to a small and
shrinking elite, members of the ruling class, on
whose money the avant-garde...

Roman Empire Political Activity

politicians to operate with very simple
psychological techniques for wining public
support. The history of it can be traced all way
back to ancient Greece and Rome. After Roman
Empire began to decline, populist methods for
pleasing crowd and thus securing its own rule
became increasingly popular among Caesars. They
were well aware that masses only wanted bread and
entertainment, and they used to exploit it in
their own interests. But why populism as p...

Ruling Elite Ordinary Citizens

Political Science We live in time when more and
more people, throughout the world, doubt the
effectiveness of democracy. They realize that the
political processes in democratic countries are
defined by the power balance between those in
charge, rather than by the will of ordinary
citizens. The political theories of Walter Lippman
and Samuel Popkin represent the conservative
opinion about the nature of political process.

also can find a few differe...

If it is admitted that the nineteenth century has
been the century of Socialism, Liberalism and
Democracy, it does not follow that the twentieth
must also be the century of Liberalism, Socialism
and Democracy. Political doctrines pass; peoples
remain. It is to be expected that this century may
be that of authority, a century of the Right, a
Fascist century. If the nineteenth was the century

Neutron Star Black Hole
559 words
Black holes by supernova Firstly, a black hole
isnt really a hole at all, but thats the easiest
way to think of its effects on the rest of the
universe. Take a star thats at least thirty times
larger than our sun and make it explode (called a
supernova). Stars do that at the end of their
lifetime, sometimes leaving a remnant of the
violent explosion. The nature of the remnant
depends on its mass. If the remnant is less than
1. 4 solar masses, it will become a white dwarf, a
kind of hot dead star...

M P H Black Hole
3,742 words
Black holes are objects so dense that not even
light can escape their gravity, and since nothing
can travel faster than light, nothing can escape
from inside a black hole. Loosely speaking, a
black hole is a region of space that has so much
mass concentrated in it that there is no way for a
nearby object to escape its gravitational pull.
Since our best theory of gravity at the moment is
Einsteins general theory of relativity, we have to
delve into some results of this theory to
understand black ...

Big Bang Theory Force Of Gravity

Stars and galaxies began to form about one billion
years following the Big Bang, and since then the
universe has simply continued to grow larger and
cooler, creating conditions conducive to life.
Three excellent reasons exist for believing in the
big-bang theory. First, and most obvious, the
universe is expanding. Second, the theory predicts
that 25 percent of the total mass of the universe
should be the helium that formed during the first
few minutes, an amount that agrees with
observations. Fi...
