Abstract:

Karl Mannheim and Jean Baudrillard are two highly respected sociologists. They reigned in two very different periods of time and their views were inevitably shaped by the events and cultural realities of their days. Mannheim “spent his active life in the first half of the twentieth century, in the darkest years of Modern Europe”. (Karacsony, 2008) Mannheim observed and wrote about the self-serving separation of classes and how people behaved towards one another based on their economic status. Ironically, the same is evident in today’s times. He also believed that there is a relationship between human thought and the ...

The cold war between US and USSR ended in 1991 after the disintegration of USSR. The world changed from a bipolar world to a unipolar world, and US became the only super power. Disintegration of Russia has given birth to several independent Central Asian States, still under the Russian influence but has the possibility of turning sides towards US. During the cold war, it was only the danger of mutually assured destruction through nuclear war between the two superpowers, however, the world today is perhaps a much lesser safe place due to the danger of nuclear proliferation, fear of total destruction through ...

Imagine being judged based on your ancestry; having to live in agony owing to matters you had no influence over can be quite unnerving.

It is one of the periods in history where one has been judged on the basis of their race and had to suffer for something they had no control over. The period came after the Pearl Harbour was attacked by Imperial Japan. The ...

Influence of Etruscan Literature on Ancient Rome Architecture

The architecture of ancient Rome is often described as distinctive in nature due to its hugely unique characteristics.

The emergence of Roman civilization was contemporary with of the Etruscans, the Egyptian and the Greek dynasties. However, unlike all these cultures, the importance and relevance of the Rome Empire continued going as the first millennium BCE faded. The ...

UN POSITION ON NUCLEAR WEAPONS

There are more than two dozen countries of the world that have nuclear power, however, only a few have nuclear weapons and few are suspected of making nuclear weapons.

Otherwise, it would have been an apocalypse already. That was the industry development that caused global pollution.
Even in the late 13th century, people knew about air pollution. For instance, King of England Edward I punished every Londoner, who ...

Russia is a huge producer of oil and gas. It is the second largest producer and exporter of oil, and the largest producer and exporter of natural gas (Winfrey, 2010).

The ultimate effect of the global financial crisis of 2009 was an increased uncertainty and negativity in the financial ...

Since the ancient times, it is visible that there is always a gap between societies that often divides them into two or more distinct groups. There are countries that have more political and economic capability than other countries, while there are countries that are better in social stability. In terms of people, they are mostly divided through their financial capability, educational attainment and upbringing, which would then determine as to whether or not they can keep up with the modern world. As far as technology is concerned, people are yet again divided over their capacity to know and afford these ...

Rita Dove and Katherine Mansfield were not contemporaries, nor do they write in the same genre. But two works, one from each author, are worth comparing and contrasting since both have a similar underlying theme, which leads the reader to a contrary conclusion.

Katherine Mansfield’s “Miss Brill” is about a woman who is an avid people watcher who uses her avid imagination to find meaning in every exchange happening in earshot ...
