History

UNO [17]2 years ago

President Grover Cleveland was the only US President to serve in two non-consecutive terms (From 1885 to 1889 and from 1893 to 1897). During his presidency, he vetoed a bill who proposed granting pensions to Civil War Union veterans, as well as the Dependent Pension Bill who would grant a pension to anyone serving in the military for more than 90 days. He argued that many claims would be fraudulent. 

President Cleveland assumed office during a critical time for the country, as it was passing through a severe economic depression. These decisions of vetoing pensions followed his policy of austerity.

What parts of Muslim philosophy and learning do we see in our own culture today?
pogonyaev

If we look at the five principles of Islam, or the five pillars or the five fundamentals, belief practically ends with the first pillar of Islam. In other words, that affirmation that Allah is the only deity and that Muhammad is his messenger. After that, everything is action, is practice. The other four, i.e., praying, fasting, paying the zakat -- what I call a social tax -- and the hajj, involve action. Muslims are very action-oriented.

Which community or movement is associated with transcendentalism?
Vikentia [17]

The transcendentalism was a movement that emerged in the 19th century the U.S. and focused on the individual and the role of this in society as self- reliant and independent which were ideas influenced by European philosophers such as Immanuel Kant ad Emmanuel Swedenborg. This movement had a great impact on society and because of this different associations and organization based on it were founded and besides this, people tried to integrate those ideas into real communities, one of the most important cases in the U.S. was the Brook Farm that was founded in Massachusetts and was a community and experiment based on some of the principles of transcendentalism.

Therfore, the community that is associated with transcendentalism is the Brook Farm as this was an experiment that applied principles of transcendentalism in real life; also others such as the Oneida Community and the Ephrata Cloister were religious organization and the Fourierims was a philosophy based on Charles Fourier that different from the Transcendentalism and therefore these were not associated with Transcendentalism.
