I'll assume that's a thesis statement meant for argument or debate. An argument could be made on either side, depending on your point of view.
- On the one hand, the United States and the Soviet Union had dramatically different worldviews. The US system of democracy and capitalism was at odds with the USSR system of totalitarian rule and communist collectivism. The two nations were allied only for the sake of defeating Germany and Japan in the Second World War, and were in opposition to each other in about every other way. Following the war, they became bitter opponents in the Cold War.
- On the other hand, the USA and the other Allies in World War II needed the help of the Soviet Union in order to defeat the combined threat of Germany and Japan. The USSR suffered millions of casualties due to the war -- more than any other nation. They bore the brunt of the fighting against Germany, even before the US entered the war. And President Roosevelt, while not in agreement with the governing philosophy of Joseph Stalin, still thought he was someone that could be worked with cooperatively. (When President Truman took over after Roosevelt's death, he did not share that same view of Stalin and the USSR.)
So the matter can be argued from both sides. Pick your side and write a strong essay!
Increasing photosynthesis increases carbon availability for plants. Whether, or to what extent, that translates into increased growth depends on the nature of colimiting factors, especially nutrient availability. Any increase in carbon availability will exacerbate nutrient limitations. (Hope this helps! Give thanks?)
It would become another monarchy just like back in Britain the people would be ruled by a tyrant who is in power of enforcing laws and making laws that he/she finds justified to their principles-“democracy”for him NOT the people
Karl marx and his fellow writer Engel believed that revolution should start from below, by proletariat coming together, while Maoism recruited the urban population,red army and students. Marxism did not beleive in violent take over but maoism did, which led to him killing millions of people.
Robert La Follette argued that corporations and political leaders were blocking the people from exercising their true role in a Republic as the ones to select their government representatives. Before La Follette's push for primary elections, candidates were chosen by political party leaders behind closed doors, often with much influence (including bribery) from corporations.
In an 1897 speech entitled, "The Danger Threatening Representative Government," La Follette said:
- <em>Since the birth of the Republic, indeed almost within the last generation, a new and powerful factor has taken its place in our business, financial and political world and is there exercising a tremendous influence. The existence of the corporation, as we have it with us today, was never dreamed of by the fathers. . . . The corporation of today has invaded every department of business, and it’s powerful but invisible hand is felt in almost all activities of life.</em>
Robert La Follette led the Progressive movement within the Republican Party in the state of Wisconsin. La Follette was governor of the state from 1901 to 1906 and represented Wisconsin in the US Senate from 1906 to 1925. La Follette originated what was called the "Wisconsin Idea" (or the "Wisconsin Way"), which proposed that efficient and ethical government will be controlled by voters, not by businesses and lobbyists. The Wisconsin Idea also theorized that educated specialists in law, economics and the sciences would produce the best sort of government.
The president of the University of Wisconsin during La Follette's governorship was Charles Van Hise, who was a friend and former classmate of La Follette's. Van Hise applied the Wisconsin Idea also to the role of the university in fostering good government for the benefit of progressive reform in the state. In a 1905 address, Van Hise said, “I shall never be content until the beneficent influence of the University reaches every family of the state.” That aspect of the Wisconsin Idea is still hailed as a guiding principle for the University of Wisconsin system.
