John Calvert specializes in the field of social protest and political opposition. He explains that Qutb set the theoretical foundation for radical Islamism in the Sunni Muslim community. Unlike any other Islamist thinker, Sayyid was able to exert considerable influence on the development of Islamism of his own time and of the subsequent generations.

As a radical movement, the Black Panthers instilled fear in America at large, especially when members of the Black Power movement marched on the capital of California in Sacramento. The Black Panthers marched with guns to protest and testify to the prevalent police brutality against blacks in Oakland predicated on the rationale that if African Americans did not have the right to self-defense then they had no right to self-termination. As a result, the police were angered and seemingly had the opposite of the intended effects. Popular discourses proffered an image of Africans Americans carrying guns in the Black ...

The federal government under the radical republicans then enacted laws and made constitutional amendments which could prosecute the Ku Klux Klan, an armed militia found in many Southern states which indulged in violence against the black ...

Many historians acknowledge the Declaration of Independence as the starting point of the American statehood and one of the most prominent democratic instruments of the United States. A large part of the Declaration takes account of all kinds of accusations against the parliament and the monarchy of England that brought tyranny to the land and undermined the economic interests of the colonists. The true value of the document lies in its social philosophy that “defined three inalienable rights (Ginsberg, et. al. 2014: 18)”: “Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” (Declaration of Independence, US 1776, par. 2) The ...

Freedom of speech is one of the determining factors of civil society and youth - its brightest representative. Very often, due to some political reasons or personal concerns of senior management (of political and educational institutions), people face problems with the expression of their point of view.

In this paper we shall analyze the impact that Islam, Catholicism and Protestantism has had on the politics of certain less developed countries.

The development of African American drama can be traced back to the slave-trade era. As more slaves integrated, they developed a certain artistic approach to all their activities.

As the ecclesiastical power started to deteriorate, the pressure of having to fit scientific inquiry with Christian dogma decreased, making inquiry steadily more objective. Copernicus ...

These traits including meekness, humility, pity and other characteristics that might be universally defined as kind are to him, weak.

Defining Terrorism

Defining terrorism is a very complex issue, the importance of which cannot be overstated in the world today. The problem with declaring a “War on Terror” is that there is no catch-all definition of what constitutes terrorism (O’Kane, 2007).

A good definition of an act of terrorism is, arguably, an act, often a violent act, whose purpose is to terrify, scare, or otherwise ...
