Answer: to share his experience as a child soldier.

<em>A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier</em> is an autobiographical book by Ishmael Beah. In it, Beah tells the story of his years as a child soldier during the civil war in Sierra Leone. After his experience, Beah was rescued by UNICEF and placed in a rehabilitation program at the age of sixteen. He was eventually able to move to the United States. Beah tries, both through his book and as a speaker, to share his experience as a child soldier and draw international attention to this very serious problem.

What is Machiavelli’s view of human nature? Your answer should be at least one hundred words

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Machiavelli's human view mostly states that human nature is selfish, aggressive, greedy and power-hungry, but in need of security and safety.

Thus, he considers man in a similar way to that of Thomas Hobbes: humans have a predominantly negative conception, their individual characteristics are prone to evil, and society is a containment in which humans limit those characteristics. But he differs from Hobbes in that he believes that humans have advanced intelligence, and that he uses his selfishness and lack of empathy to achieve the goals he sets for himself, justifying the means in the end he sets for himself.
