Although History Repeats Itself, It Never Repeats Itself Exactly
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. History has long had a tendency to repeat itself, particularly with regard to war. While this phenomenon never ceases to replicate the past, there are always enough subtle nuances of change that prevent history from repeating itself exactly as before. Two books that address this occurrence are My Lai : A Brief History With Documents by James Stuart Olson & Randy W. Roberts and Douglas V. Porpora's How Holocausts Happen : The United States in Central America, both delving deeply within the psychological basis upon which selective extermination exists and why it has been allowed to continue throughout the years. No additional sources cited.

American Families & The Nostalgia Myth / The Way We Never Were
[ send me this paper ]
Focusing primarily upon the argument in Stephanie Coontz's (1992) book by same title, the writer of this 5 page paper presents the argument that each generation has looked upon the one previous to it and commented on how pure and innocent things were back in the proverbial "good ol' days." In actuality, however, morality was never as high in the past as we are led to believe. We are "brainwashed" by family-orientated television programs to believe that during the 50's and 60's, people were more "innocent" when in reality, juvenile delinquency, teen pregnancy, drug abuse, etc.;-- soared-- sometimes to levels much higher than today. This social phenomenon is explored in great detail. Bibliography also cites 2 additional sources.

American Foreign Policy -- End of World War II to 1975
[ send me this paper ]
This 5
page report discusses the period immediately following the end of
World War II, when it became increasingly clear that the
alliances that existed between the Soviet Union and the U.S. were
not likely to last. Military and economic commitments were made
by both the “East” and the “West” to establish their dominance in
certain regions and led the world into the Cold War. Bibliography

American Foreign Policy after World War II
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report
discusses how the world political scene evolved in terms of
American globalist goals and objectives. As World War II came to
a conclusion, it was clear that alliances made in the time of war
would have little likely of surviving the stress of peace. For
those who formed their attitudes in the midst of the relatively
simplistic thinking of West equals good and East equals bad, or
Communism is evil and all people “deserve” capitalism,” the
change in ideologies represented by globalization and
international partnerships have been staggering. Bibliography
lists 4 sources.
