...“...the bourgeoisie has at last, since the establishment of Modern industry and of the worldmarket, conquered for itself, in the modern representative State, exclusive political sway…” – Karl Marx. Karl Marx in the communist manifesto, praises the Bourgeois for establishing a worldmarket, which gave birth to immense development in commerce, navigation, communication and expanding the industry. However, he also argues, that as the bourgeois continue to broaden the 22 capital market, it pushes back every other class to a lesser decreed. As the bourgeois developed, so did their political power. The bourgeois exploits the proletariat as laborers, a mere commodity to the means of production to further their own interests in establishing themselves as the dominant power. The bourgeoisie cannot exist without constantly revolutionising the instruments of production, and thereby the relations of production, with them the whole relations of society 24. Therefore, as the bourgeois try to maximize their profits through the mechanics of competition and free trade, nations become interdependent on each other, and the proletariat is not only from one country or region, but an international set of people. The labourers, are seen as a means of production, and therefore to maximize profit (which is the key goal of capitalists), labours are are exploited to a degree of unfair working conditions, low wages and illtreatment as their availability or supply is more than its demand...

...Karl Marx Communist Manifesto response paper Communism is justified seemed to be the message of Karl Marx throughout his Communist Manifesto and he even provides his reasoning and examples to prove his point. Marx describes history as the constant struggle for power between the proletariats and the bourgeois, between “freeman and slave, patrician and plebian, lord and serf…oppressor and oppressed” in “a fight that each time ended in either a revolutionary re-constitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes” (Marx, 65). And that is where the goals of the proletariats and the communists matched up. Both groups wanted to consolidate the proletariats into a class and overthrow the bourgeois and allow the proletariats to gain political power. The communists wanted to further this revolution or overthrow of dominant power by taking control over bourgeois property because their property represented in a form the exploitation of the proletariats. (Marx, 78). This is true because the workers do not gain anything from working and the products that they produce ultimately represent something that had exploited them. Communism is further validated by Marx’s defense of Communism against the claims that communism does “ill” to society. Marx claims that “communism deprives no man of the power to appropriate the products of society; all that it does it to deprive him of the power to subjugate the labour of others by means of such appropriation” (Marx, 80)...

The chapter lays out the position that the bourgeois, through competition and private ownership of land, are forever exploiting and oppressing the proletariat (working class).

Proletarians and Communists This chapter explains the relationship between the communist party and other working parties, stating that the communist parties would not organize against them. The chapter also declares the...

...Stephanie Chamblee Sociology 100 Manifesto of the communist party (1A) The bourgeoisie, by the rapid improvement of all instruments of production, by the immensely facilitated means of communication, draws all, even the most barbarian, nations into civilization. The cheap prices of commodities are the heavy artillery with which it batters down all Chinese walls, with which it forces the barbarians’ intensely obstinate hatred of foreigners to capitulate. It compels all nations, on pain of extinction, to adopt the bourgeois mode of production; it compels them to introduce what it calls civilization into their midst, i.e., to become bourgeois themselves. Marx is explaining how the bourgeoisie’s were able to make even the most uncivilized countries into civilized ones by forcing production and capitalism on those countries, that way they would think and act like a bourgeoisie. In return the bourgeoisie would be able to exchange goods. They were able to force countries to believe that this way of life was good and necessary for a country to advance in the world. Now one would be able to purchase commodities for cheap by having created a relationship with these countries. These countries believed that by opening up to trade that their country would not be looks down upon, but rather be looks at as an advancing society. (2b) For 2015 I don’t see it being any other way but the way it is now. The bourgeoisie will continue on enforcing their way of life upon societies for...

...Essay 1 What Goad means by White Niggers have feeling too is that every ethnic group and rich whites feel it’s okay to pick on poor white rural white people. What he does is compare the word “Redneck” with the word “Nigger” in how they are both used in today’s society through news stories. The double standard comes into play because one word is ok to use to describe poor white trash “Redneck” while the other word used to describe poor black trash “Nigger” is unacceptable. He uses the dictionary as an example of the double standard for both words. The word “Nigger” has a one word definition as “negro” with an apologetic disclaimer basically saying that it “is only acceptably used in Black English and very taboo to use because of its link with slavery” (Goad, 21). While the term “Redneck” is defined “as a poor, white, rural southerner often, specif., often one is regarded as ignorant, bigoted, violent, etc…” (Goad, 21) Essay 2 Goad traces back class conflict to Preroman times when people were hunter gathers who either traveled alone or in small groups. When the alone people ran into these small groups they were prey just as the smaller groups were prey for larger ones. By necessity these groups became loosely netted communities of clans who stuck together or were taken over by invaders. These groups were usually absorbed into the centralized agriculture slave states by force. The occurred when the men who wanted to remain outside the city slave states who hunted alone...

...Analysis and Design July 16, 2012 Summer Term B 2012 Professor David A. Ostrowski Agile Methodology is an approach to project management that for the most part is used with software development. Agile Methodology is a very important part of software development. Throughout this paper I intend to discuss what the movement toward agility means for the future of systems analysis and design (Hoffer, George, & Valacich, 2011). In the year of 2001 many proponents met in Utah and came to discuss and agree on underlying principles (Hoffer, George, & Valacich, 2011). Through this discussion they came up with the “The Agile Manifesto” (Hoffer, George, & Valacich, 2011). There is very important information listed in the Agile Manifesto as you can see from the information I have provided, according to my textbook, below. “The Manifesto for Agile Software Development Seventeen anarchists agree: We are uncovering better ways of developing software by doing it and helping others do it. Through this work we have come to value: • Individuals and interactions over processes and tools. • Working software over comprehensive documentation. • Customer collaboration over contract negotiation. • Responding to change over following a plan. That is, while we value the items on the right, we value the items on the left more. We follow the following principles: • Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software. ...

...this so he laid out a plan for Communism, with ten essential points. Karl Heinrich Marx was born on May 5, 1818, in Trier in western German, the son of a successful Jewish lawyer. Marx studied law in Bonn and Berlin, but was also introduced to the ideas of Hegel and Feuerbach. In 1841, he received a doctorate in philosophy from the University of Jena. In 1843, after a short spell as editor of a liberal newspaper in Cologne, Marx and his wife Jenny moved to Paris, a hotbed of radical thought. There he became a revolutionary communist and befriended his lifelong collaborator, Friedrich Engels. Expelled from France, Marx spent two years in Brussels, where his partnership with Engels intensified. They co-authored the pamphlet 'The Communist Manifesto' which was published in 1848 and asserted that all human history had been based on class struggles, but that these would ultimately disappear with the victory of the proletariat. In 1849,...

...Klarice Davis Josh Huber English 1000 September 2014 The Hunger Games through the Eyes of Karl Marx I grew up in a small town. Everyone knew your name and the reputation you held with it. If you had a well-regarded name in the town you had it all. Any sport you wanted to be on, you were on. Any club you wanted to participate in you were in (and probably the president too). Everything was easier for those who were ranked highly in the cast system of Sullivan, Missouri. In high school I was on dance team. There were eighteen girls, tremendous drama, and so much false security. My dance coach always favored one girl specifically. Her name was Lindsay and she was the daughter of the doctor in town. She was a very nice girl, I will admit, but her dancing skills were not up to par. About one month into my third season, our new coach announced she thought it would be a good idea to have a captain. That night all of the girls gossiped about who they thought would be the captain. We all concluded it would be the best dancer on the team, Sheri. The next day we gathered around our coach waiting anxiously for her to announce our new captain but it was not what we expected. She announced it would be Lindsay. Filled with anger, everyone began to file out the door. We had to anticipate eight months of being criticized and critiqued by a girl who could not even dance well. The first year went fluently. At times it was hard to be criticized by Lindsay but over time that did not bother...

To be successful on our testsdefinitions associated , students must be able to differentiate between the correct answer and the plausible distracters…put another way, our tests clearly separate those who know from those who do not know lesson concepts. 2. Explain questions are just above the knowledge level of learning. To get these questions correct, students need to be able to recognize key terms, phrases, and words (including synonyms). 3. By design, plausible distracters might be partially correct. That is why, with few exceptions, we use the words MOST or BEST in the problem statement/question. Your challenge is to know the concepts well enough to differentiate between answers that sound correct or that are partially correct and the BEST answer. 4.

...PREFACE Adam Jefferson, a divine manifest of Adam Smith's materialism and Thomas Jefferson's idealism, is our troubled modern day hero. He awoke in the middle of his life - broke and lost. A serial entrepreneur, his life was a never-ending quest for material success. At age 38, as Joseph Campbell forewarned humanity, Adam had "climbed the ladder of success, only to realize it was propped up against the wrong wall." Alone, with nothing else to lose, Adam Jefferson climbed down off of the ladder and searched for the wall of his future. This led him on a 100-day odyssey to start the ascent of his new life, an epic journey which called him across the world discussing today's challenges and opportunities with the great minds of our past - Carl Jung, Mary Parker-Follett, Martin Luther King, Jr., Mohandas Gandhi, Albert Einstein, and many others. An act of their collective genius and magical combustion, a psychological and sociological theory for sustainability and success was formed. Like all heroic quests, Adam ended where he had begun. Prior to his expedition, Adam had an unforgettable encounter with one of the great minds of the 20th century. One freezing, early morning on January 17, 2009, Adam Jefferson met the famed Harvard psychologist Lawrence Kohlberg in Cambridge, Massachusetts. They walked the beach in Winthrop for hours, discussing morality and the questions one ponders in the solitude of despair. They exchange woes - "You tell me yours, and I will tell you mine."...

We want an America that gives all Americans the chance to live out their dreams and achieve their God-given potential. We want an America that is still the world's strongest force for peace and freedom. And we want an America that is coming together around our enduring values, instead of drifting apart.". (DNC) This is the modern Democratic national committee platform. The democratic party has changed vastly since its creation over 2 centuries ago. In its early stages of life the democratic party's beliefs were much different than they are today,with the ebb and flow of time they have evolved alongside the people who claim democratic allegiance. For instance during the civil war, the democratic party's political platform revolved around the tension between the south and north. Democrats opposed civil rights and tolerated slavery in an attempt to conjure the votes in the devastated south.( Britannica ) Today however, through political reform of an entire parties beliefs the modern democratic party is born. Whether democrat or republican citizens of the united states have faced challenges and adversity, through this struggle we as a people can come together and create a entity that reflects our core beliefs in matters of all aspects of life. Democrats champion preservation of the environment, Economic responsibility, and affordable healthcare. "Today's Democratic Party...

...Chandler Western Civilization 27 November 2013 Communist Manifesto The Communist Manifesto is a book written by Karl Marx and Friederick Engels. It was written 70 years before the Russian Revolution overturned capitalism. There are many prefixes to it including, the 1872 German Edition, Preface to the 1882 Russian Edition, the 1883 German Edition, Preface to the 1888 English Edition, the 1890 German Edition, the 1892 Polish Edition, and the 1893 Italian Edition. It caused a revolution to arise in Paris, causing a wave of revolutions to spread throughout Europe, and marked the beginning of Marxism. Marx was born in Trier, Germany, in 1818. His family was German Jews. Most of the people in Trier were Catholic, but Marx's father decided to abandon their Jewish faith and become Protestant in order to keep his job as a lawyer. Marx received his Ph. D. at the University of Berlin. He planned to teach there, but could not obtain a position because he professed Atheism. Marx decided on a career in journalism and became the editor of the Bourgeois newspaper of Cologne in 1842. He was suppressed from the newspaper for his radical views and moved to Paris, where he met Friederick Engels and became life, long friends. In 1847, Marx and Engels joined the Communist League, a tiny group of German socialist revolutionaries. They were advocates of the radical working-class movement. They linked the Communist Manifesto to the struggles of the working class, also known as proletariat...
