What we learn from this is that no mistake can be erased from history just as no reparations can completely repair damage done. Germany's inability to carry her own weight during this time of trouble only prolonged the world economy, which was badly bruised and desperately needing to be healed.
2. Democracy became the word that was whispered across the globe during the twenties and thirties. The promise of democracy proved to be easier than the act of democracy. "Democracy seemed divisive and ineffective, so one country after another adopted a more authoritarian alternative during the twenties and early thirties" (Noble 1034). However, it is impossible to squash the human sprit that longs to be free. Noble asserts, "Democracy proved hard to manage in east-central Europe party because of special economic difficulties resulting from the breakup of the Habsberg system" (Noble 1035). In addition, he notes, "The countries of east-central Europe remained overwhelmingly agrarian, and this, too, proved unconducive to democracy" (1035). Growth and expansion work best under a democracy and the European communist were beginning to understand this.
There is no doubt communism was the result of governments looking for answers. Noble explains, "Communism and fascism were new and no one knew what they would mean to the nations or peoples that embraced them. But these two movements expanded political options and this made the political framework in Europe more complex and unstable during the 1930s" (1035-56). The appeal of communism was infectious and Noble claims, "From its founding in March 1919 until the spring of 1920, as a wave of leftist political agitation and labor unrest spread throughout Europe, the Comintern actively promoted the wider revolution that Lenin and his colleagues had anticipated when they took power in 1917" (1039). The Soviet bloc experienced rapid growth and "cut through all the revolutionary romanticism and rhetoric to show the others what the Leninist strategy, or communism, meant" (1040). The need for some type of leadership brought on the greatest wave of communism. The timing was right and most of the countries affected were still reeling from the war.

These statements are, I must admit, debatable. As much as I believe in my childhood knowledge of religion and the responsibilities it implies, I know I have yet much to learn ad this is precisely why I would like to become a graduate student. My background is humble, but I know that my knowledge so far, as well as my unique upbringing could help me further my ideals and attain
WW2 Momentum Shift 1942-1944 WWII One of the events that rocked the world and consequently shaped the world was the WWII that commenced effectively in 1939 and ended in 1945. It is however worth noting that some of the conflicts that eventually ended up in the culmination of the WWII started much earlier. The WWII parse involved majority of the nations, including the powerful nations at that time taking sides and aligning
Industrial Revolution Changed the World Economy? The Industrial Revolution that started in Great Britain in the latter part of eighteenth century is considered by some historians to be the most significant transformation in the economic environment of human civilization after the Agricultural Revolution. While there is no disagreement on the view that the 'revolution' had a great effect on the world economy and transformed the lives of a large number
Cod: Fish That Changed the World Environmental science is not just one science and is not concerned only with the environment. Instead, environmental science covers a wide variety of topics from several different areas. The additional areas also go beyond science and link environmental science to subjects such as politics, history, economics, and human geography. One way to consider the interdisciplinary nature of environmental science is to look at an example
light bulb was perhaps the most significant invention since fire; although fire was never truly invented. Nevertheless, the light bulb has impacted our lives on a scale similar to that of when our ancestors first harnessed the flame: it has altered the way people live their lives so drastically that it is difficult to even imagine life in its absence. Thanks to its invention, the night is open to
Modern Communication Technology and Its Benefits While opponents and critics of modern communication technology like social media platforms Twitter and Facebook argue that these tools invariably bring pain and problems to people’s lives, this one-sided and ultimately shallow approach to modern communication technology ignores the many benefits that text messaging, smartphones, social media, the Internet, and other communication tools in the Digital Era provide to individuals, businesses, organizations, governments and law
