World Religions and the Masses By: James Hannah World Religions MWF 11-1150 What is religion and why do so many in the world follow a form of it. The masses are so easily moved to follow something. Religion is a way to control the masses‚ but also we can look at that further that internet controls the masses‚ as does cell phones. That is my feeling on the subject.

The Unipolar World Within the confines of post-Westphalian time there is probably a near consensus amongst realists that the international system can be periodized as multipolar up to 1945‚ and then bipolar up to 1989. Unfortunately the assessment of polarity has become problematic since the end of the Cold War (Buzan and Little‚ 2000:391). Understanding the polarity of the international system may help us to have a better understanding the power distribution and the states’ behavior in the international

A Different Kind of Rain One scene in The Known World depicts an odd event. While many scenes show brutality‚ injustice‚ humility‚ and love‚ a small scene where one slave is good to his master carries a different message.
