Abstract:

The study of Western Civilization is a process that examines multiple aspects of achievements, philosophies, and traditions which have shaped the modern world as we know it. These aspects have been recognized as originating from several sources to include Greece and Rome (among others) with their effects being viewed throughout history during important periods such as the Enlightenment, the Industrial Revolution, and the Renaissance. Typically, these events (and others) have been observed to be periods of heightened advancements in exploration, innovation, and technology.
It is the intent of this brief research paper to illustrate the continuing relevance of Western Civilization upon global culture, economics, and politics. Its principles of democracy, individual rights, and the rule of law continue to influence the international community and its leadership. And as stated with the elements presented above, many of these nations have also taken the lead in improving the human condition.
In addition, this paper will attempt to briefly touch upon the many controversies and criticisms which surround the concept of Western Civilization. Much of this discussion has centered around aspects of colonialism and other types of exploitation, but there have also been concerns expressed related to economic and socio-political agendas.
Nevertheless, Western Civilization is still considered to be a central element to the course of human history. With continued examination regarding its impact and influence, there are still valuable lessons to be gained for the benefit of the future.

Abstract:

When discussing government operations, the issue of scale is a significant factor regarding the efficiency and effectiveness of its ability to function at optimal levels, especially when dealing with an ever-increasing complex population. It is the intent of this research paper to examine the administrative, fiscal, and operational challenges associated with large-scale governance, to include aspects surrounding bureaucratic inefficiency, accountability issues, and resource allocation difficulties. It shall also attempt to provide an introductory exploration of decentralization, technological innovation, and community engagement as key strategies to address these challenges. And finally, a short bibliography will be attached for those interested in further reading and research.

Abstract:

John Locke's philosophy of natural rights, encompassing life, liberty, and property, has profoundly influenced the trajectory of Western political thought and the development of democratic institutions. Locke's works, particularly his Two Treatises of Government, articulated a vision of inherent human rights that challenged the prevailing doctrines of absolute monarchy and divine right. This research paper explores the evolution of Locke's ideas, their philosophical underpinnings, and their significant impact on subsequent political developments such as the American and French Revolutions. By examining key historical documents and contemporary interpretations, this research paper intends to demonstrate Locke's enduring legacy in shaping modern democratic principles and safeguarding individual liberties. The analysis presented will conclude with reflections on how Locke's ideas continue to resonate within contemporary Western legal and political systems, underscoring their pivotal role in the foundation and perpetuation of democratic governance.

Overview:

Written in 1859, On Liberty by author John Stewart Mill was an influential text that continues to stand out as a cornerstone of liberal political philosophy. Mill accomplishes this by exploring the intricate relationship that exists between individual liberty and societal authority with scrutiny focused on the boundaries within which society can legitimately exert power over individuals. In his perspective, Mill argues that the safeguarding of individual freedoms against the “tyranny of the majority” is paramount, and that society should be developed where individuals are free to pursue their own good with the caveat that no harms fall upon others. It is the intent of this brief research paper to explore Mill’s document and provide analysis related to its various talking points as well as its enduring impact and influence on the political landscape continuing into the modern era.

First Paragraph:

In his missive Archibald Alexander and the Use of Books: Theological Education and Print Culture in the Early Republic, author Michael Paulus presents his research regarding the influence and intersection of print culture with American theological education at the beginning of the nineteenth century. By examining Alexander’s life and work, Paulus attempts to explore the impact and influence of written materials as they pertain to the intellectual and spiritual development of both the public and its religious leadership in the early formulative years of American history.

Abstract:

The concepts of freedom and liberty, while often used interchangeably in contemporary discourse, have distinct origins and connotations in early Western Civilization. It is the intent of this brief research paper to introduce the differences of these ideas as viewed through the lens of two early western societies – Greece and Rome – regarding these elements to better gain an understanding of the evolution of both concepts. In turn, this information would better illustrate how freedom and liberty have been shaped by social, political, and philosophical developments, reflecting broader changes in Western thought and governance.

Abstract:

It is the intent of this brief research paper to examine chapter two of Lincoln Mullen's The Chance of Salvation: A History of Conversion in America, a narrative which explores the dynamics of religious conversion among Native Americans during the early colonial period. In this chapter Mullen provides a detailed account of the strategies used by European missionaries to convert Native Americans to Christianity and examines the varied responses of those Native American communities which were targeted. Mullen's analysis highlights the complex interplay between adaptation and coercion, as well as the broader socio-political implications of conversion. This research paper attempts to evaluate Mullen's comprehensive and nuanced approach, noting the strengths of his analysis and suggesting areas for further exploration, including the long-term impacts of conversion on Native American cultures.

Abstract:

Throughout history, individuals at the forefront of significant events have often been guided in their actions by their religious beliefs and values. This phenomenon is particularly evident in the decisions and rationale of the United States’ Founding Fathers as they debated and discussed the drafting of the American Declaration of Independence. This research paper proposes to delve into this historical inquiry by examining how the individual religious beliefs of key figures such as Adams, Franklin, Jefferson, and Washington influenced their decision-making processes and how religious ideology became intertwined with the foundational documents of the United States.
Through an examination of primary sources, including correspondence, diaries, and public writings, as well as secondary sources that provide scholarly analysis, this investigation aims to illustrate a more comprehensive understanding of the topic. The research will not only focus on the Founding Fathers but will also consider the broader socio-political environment of the colonies and how religious ideology influenced the general attitudes and perceptions of the era. In doing so, a more thorough understanding of the intersection between religion and politics in this critical period of American history will be achieved.
A bibliography also accompanies this research paper, providing an overview of pertinent sources that support the exploration of the agenda outlined above. This listing serves as a foundational guide for further reading and research, with the potential for additions or modifications in the future as new discoveries are made. Through this comprehensive approach, it is the intent of this research paper to contribute to the scholarly discourse on the influence of religion on the United States' Founding Fathers and their enduring legacy in American political and cultural life.

First Paragraph:

For this week’s assignment, we have been tasked with examining elements pertaining to the Fundamentalist-Modernist Controversy and the individuals attached to the event. Beyond discussing the event itself, I have chosen J. Gresham Machen as my selection due to his activities and connection to the Princeton Seminary - an important entity to the controversy. To gain a proper understanding of these two items, it is imperative that at least a basic background on both be briefly presented.

First Paragraph:

With this week’s assignment, we have been tasked with examining the importance of a Christian denomination in American History of our choice. For my selection, I have chosen to briefly review the Methodist Church and its history. The reason I choose this topic is because I was Catholic until my parents divorced and then suddenly overnight, we were Methodists – although I’ve not attended in many decades and no longer considered to be a “practicing” member. I remember that there were two items that stuck to me: 1. Sermons were somewhat shorter, and 2: there apparently was a standing rule to wrap up things early so we could “beat the Baptists” getting to lunch. I assume that there must have been a bunch of Baptists which would make the restaurants busy.

Abstract:

The economic impact of military policies on Hispanic veterans following World War II constitutes a pivotal area of investigation, intersecting themes of race, ethnicity, and socio-economic integration within the United States. This research paper aims to analyze the influence of wartime and postwar military policies on the economic status of Hispanic veterans, emphasizing their access to benefits, educational attainment, and employment opportunities. By utilizing a combination of primary sources - including government documents, personal narratives, and contemporary news reports alongside scholarly analyses - this study seeks to elucidate the complex dynamics between military service, racial identity, and economic outcomes. Preliminary findings suggest that while military service provided a potential pathway to economic mobility for many Hispanic veterans, systemic discrimination and inconsistencies in policy implementation frequently obstructed their full economic integration. This research seeks to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of the postwar economic landscape for Hispanic veterans, shedding light on both the opportunities and barriers they faced amidst the broader societal shifts of postwar America.

Abstract:

When observing the postbellum South’s economy, the name of George Washington Carver rises to the forefront. A renowned agricultural inventor and scientist, Carver was a significant factor in its evolution. Originally born into slavery, he would eventually gain his freedom and pioneer many innovations and techniques related to the agriculture sector. These contributions helped the South to diversify and create new opportunities for farmers – in particular, African Americans. His later work at the Tuskegee Institute along with his educational outreach programs would cement his legacy not only as a pioneer in sustainable agriculture, but also as symbol of African American achievement in a transforming society.

Abstract:

This paper delves into the significant impact of Dr. Hector P. Garcia on the post-World War II American economy and civil rights movement, with a particular focus on Mexican American veterans. Through a comprehensive examination of Garcia’s roles as a physician, World War II veteran, and founder of the American GI Forum, this study elucidates his unwavering commitment to justice and equality for Hispanic veterans, who were systematically disadvantaged by discriminatory policies, especially those pertaining to the GI Bill. The paper provides a thorough description, illustration, and analysis of Garcia's activism, situating his efforts within the broader context of demographic shifts in postwar America. It argues that Garcia's work not only advanced the Chicano Civil Rights Movement but also played a pivotal role in challenging and dismantling the systemic barriers faced by Mexican Americans. His legacy is framed as a cornerstone of the ongoing pursuit of civil rights and economic justice in the United States, reflecting the broader trends of racial and ethnic advocacy that defined the postwar period.
