Answer:

Zaroff is defeated because of his own overconfidence and arrogance.

Explanation:

In "The Most Dangerous Game" by 'Richard Connell', General Zaroff's is tricked by Rainsford and Zaroff gets defeated because of his own arrogance.

General Zaroff lived on Ship-Trap island. He was tired of hunting animals, so he started hunting humans to satisfy his thrill. Rainsford was his new victim. Zaroff boosts to Rainsford that killing is his "mathematical certainty" and since animals cannot compete with him, he switched to hunting humans. In overconfidence, he allowed Rainsford to stay after the first day of the competition.

Rainsford tricked Zaroff by making him think that he died but he returned to Zaroff's castle, where Rainsford kills him.

What is pluralist state , capitalist state, leviathan state and patriarchal state
natima [27]

Answer:

Pluralist state-The pluralist theory of the state has a very clear liberal lineage. It stems

from the belief that the state acts as an ‘umpire’ or ‘referee’ in society.

Capitalist State-The Marxist notion of a capitalist state offers a clear alternative to the

pluralist image of the state as a neutral arbiter or umpire.

Leviathan State-The image of the state as a ‘leviathan’ (in effect, a self-serving monster

intent on expansion and aggrandizement) is one associated in modern

politics with the New Right.

Patriarchal State-Modern thinking about the state must, finally, take account of the

implications of feminist theory.
