Origins of the Civil Rights Movement
[ send me this paper ]
A 16 page paper discussing whether the successes of the Civil Rights Movement originated with grass roots initiatives or arose through government intervention. The short answer is that it was local, grassroots efforts that brought the magnitude of the existing injustices to the attention of Washington in the 1960s. That grassroots effort did not merely materialize from the ether surrounding Montgomery, Alabama, however. It began more than a century earlier, well before the Civil War. The paper discusses the influence of Frederick Douglass; Plessy v Ferguson (1896); Brown v Board of Education (1954); the Montgomery bus boycott; and the effects of Southern tradition. Bibliography lists 9 sources, several of which are primary.

Our Governmental Legitimacy: A Discussion of the Strengths of the U.S. Governmental System
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page overview of the constitutional provisions which are in place to insure that our government retains the flexibility to change as time demands change. The contention is presented that although out government has undergone an evolution, that evolution was anticipated by our founding fathers. Even such heavily criticized components of our government as the electoral process have proven their superiority. This paper presents proof of that superiority in the form of the results of the 2000 Presidential election. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Parallels Between The Peloponnesian And Cold Wars
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. No matter the time period, participants or locale, one can analyze any two historical wars and come to the conclusion that their respective reasons were based upon a common denominator of issues, not the least of which is that of power. Defining the parallels that exist between the Peloponnesian and Cold Wars is a task that draws its conclusion upon a very fine line; indeed, while each of these important events have many significant things to do with the another, at the same time they each possess their own particular arrangement within the wide and varied scheme of man's constant quest for power. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Perceptions of the American West and Frontier in Regards to Cultural Perspective and Historical Method
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 7 page paper discussing perceptions of the American west and frontier. Perception of historical documentation is presented and argued regarding two aspects. Firstly, whether or not cultural perspective should be included in historical accounts such as argued by Jane Tompkins or whether or not cultural beliefs, and indeed the perspective of the Native Americans, should be ignored in regards to the documentation of history and history should just relate to the major chronological events as postulated by Frederick Jackson Turner. Secondly, contemporary historians such as Patricia Limerick and Eric Gary Anderson have changed the sequential historical paradigms used by Turneresque historians and instead used the writings of N. Scott Momaday and Leslie Silko among others to develop models of the Southwest which overlap and intersect different multicultural components found in order to provide nonsequential paradigms where time, space, frontiers, and crossings are boundless and in addition provide present and future existences which show the Euro-American “conquering” and influence on the West as only a small “blip” in regards to overall perception. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Personal Effects of World War II
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page paper illustrating some of the ways that WWII affected the lives of everyone. All people, regardless of age, were encouraged to support the war effort. Children collected pennies; adults cultivated “victory gardens” to supplement the national food supply and to reduce the pressures created by the need to feed the troops half a world away. Meatless meals were dedicated to the troops; holy socks were darned repeatedly; people made do with what they had. WWII certainly did touch the lives of everyone, even those not directly involved in it. The paper discusses “Rosie the Riveter” and consumer rationing. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
