THE STATE AND STATE-BUILDING Bob Jessop The state has been studied from many perspectives but no single theory can fully capture and explain its complexities.

This problem has become a struggle for DuBois to find himself fit in with his community. Because of this problem‚ DuBois believe that he has a double consciousness. According to DuBois‚ a double consciousness means he has to look at one’s self through the eyes of others to understand people’s perspective toward race.

The New Age Consciousness that is escalating around the globe conflicts with the Christian worldview in many ways; Yet at the same time‚ it is almost a mirror reflection of the Christian worldview with specific exceptions.
