March 4, 2018 Envisioning World Civilizations 23.1 Karl Marx and Friedrich Englels, "The Communist Manifesto" What was meant by "The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles." Is that all social history shows a constant struggle between the First class and working class. The working class has always struggled to merely survive. What makes the current struggle differ from before the Bourgeoisie and Proletariat formed is that the ancient and medieval society had oppressed the slaves and the poorest plebeians and laborers. 23.6 Charles Darwin, "On the Origin of the Species" Natural selection is the process by which organisms that are better suited to their environment than others produce more offspring. The proportion of organisms in a species with more adaptive characteristics to a given environment increases every generation. With natural selection, it modifies the original random variation of genetic traits in species so alleles that are beneficial for survival dominate while not beneficial ones decrease.
25.4 Mississippi articles of secession
Slavery and a belief in black inferiority were the heart of Mississippi's decision to leave the union.
In the article, they explain, "Utter subjugation awaits us in the Union if we should consent longer to remain in it. It is not a matter of choice, but of necessity. We must either submit to degradation, and to the loss of property worth four billions of money, or we must secede from the Union framed by our fathers, to secure this as well as every other species of property. For far less cause than this, our fathers separated from the Crown of England." They resolved to maintain their rights with the belief that they had the ability to maintain
it. 26.6 Rudyard Kipling, "The White Man's Burden"
"The White Man's Burden," is a poem about imperialism and how he saw the world as Eurocentric and reprimanded the "white man's" need to westernize different societies. This poem relates to imperialism since it is a notice to the United States about what it should expect when it embarks to end up an imperial power. Kipling felt that the US was leaving on its first genuine royal move when it made control of the Philippines after the Spanish-American War. As a British individual, Kipling felt that he realized what having a domain involved. He was cautioning the Americans of the issues required with having a domain. According to Kipling, an imperial power is in for a very hard time. It is going to have to work very hard to try and bring civilization to the people it conquers. The imperial power is told to
Go bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
To wait in heavy hardness…
This means that the work of civilizing the imperialized peoples will be very hard. It will be a very unappreciated task. The imperial power will have to work hard to Fill full the mouth of Famine An bid the sickness cease; Even as it works hard, it will not see the benefit of what it does. Instead, Kipling warns that And when your goal is nearest The end for others sought, Watch sloth and heathen folly Bring all your hopes to nought.
In conclusion, this poem is warning the United States about what Kipling sees as the perils and difficulties of imperialism. For this reason, it is very closely connected to imperialism. 28.3 Adolf Hitler, "Mein Kampf"
Culture-founders: Aryans
It is from him that the foundation and the walls of all human creations originate, and only the external form and color depend on the characteristics of the various peoples involved.
Culture-bearers:
But if it is ascertained that a people receives, takes in, and works over the essential basic elements of its culture from other races, and if then, when a further external influence is lacking, it stiffens again and again, then one can perhaps call such a race a "culture-bearing" one but never a "culture-creating" one.
Culture-destroyers: Jews
The Jew possesses no culture-creating energy whatsoever, as the idealism, without which there can never exist a genuine development of man towards a higher level, does not and never did exist in him. His intellect, therefore, will never have a constructive effect, but only a destructive one.
The Jew forms the strongest contrast to the Aryan. Hardly in any people of the world is the instinct of self-preservation more strongly developed than in the so-called "chosen people." The fact of the existence of this race alone may be looked upon as the best proof of this. Where are the people that in the past two thousand years has been exposed to so small changes of the inner disposition, of character, etc., as the Jewish people? Which people finally have experienced greater changes than this one—and yet has always come forth the same from the colossal catastrophes of mankind? What an infinitely persistent will for life, for preserving the race do these facts disclose! The blood-mixing, however, with the lowering of the racial level caused by it, is the sole cause of the dying-off of old cultures; for the people do not perish by lost wars, but by the loss of that force of resistance which is contained only in the pure blood.
All that is not race in this world is trash. All world historical events, however, are only the expression of the races' instinct of self-preservation in its good or in its evil meaning. Hitler thought by killing all of the Jews that would get rid of that particular culture
