I believe our money in Iraq would be much better spent in these arenas, which are underserved now, and which have long been under the auspices of relief organizations and the United Nations, among others. Instead of shoving our ideas down other country's throats, I wish we would take a more humanitarian role, and stop trying to convert everyone to democracy and our own way of thinking.
One of Ferguson's arguments for liberal imperialism is the argument that many Third World and evolving nations do not have the resources or even the abilities to govern themselves, and this is certainly a compelling argument. He writes, "Might it not be that for some countries some form of imperial governance, meaning a partial or complete suspension of their national sovereignty, might be better than full independence, not just for a few months or years but for decades?" (Ferguson 170). This statement is reasonable, can be argued, and seems to be fairly benign. Certainly, there are nations who may not be capable of governing themselves for a time. I do not believe that time should stretch into decades, and I do not believe that America should be the only nation who bears responsibility in this case. It seems a group of nations, or a group like the U.N. would be best suited to maintain the peace and promote new governments in these cases, and not one nation, who might be tempted to push their own beliefs and ideals on these emerging nations.
It is quite clear Ferguson has done his research for this text. A respected...

Does "married to shadow" to mean her actual marriage isn't working well? Or that she is in a dark place due to her dad's passing, and she must observe the living world
Pictures on the news of American flags being burned seem to appear more often than they used to. Perhaps my generation just isn't used to having our nation criticized to the extent that it has been since our response to September 11; we all know there have been anti-American protests in the past, that flags have been burned and protests against certain American military endeavors waged. Anti-Americanism has many definitions
Many on Wall Street expected Schrempp to use his new-found liquidity to make an acquisition. It is worth noting that Schrempp always saw auto manufacturing as a global business. In addition to establishing an important beachhead in the U.S., he wanted to do the same in Japan. Shortly before the Chrysler merger he concluded a deal with Mitsubishi to acquire a significant minority stake in their stock. Schrempp must have
United States has become preoccupied with the internal affairs at the expense of the foreign affairs after the civil war. It started interfering in overseas conflicts and interacting with the World after the diplomatic inactivity from Latin America and Spain to the China and Philippines. This interaction made the America to become a major World power. The first conflict of America was with the Hawaii in Pacific which was governed by
global strategy, retail giant Wal-Mart has a few different factors to consider, as is evident in the Newsweek article, "Wal-Mart World." Not only does Wal-Mart have certain factors that must be taken into account when considering their global strategy, but these choices differ from country to country. According to the article, "Wal-Mart is the No. 1 retailer in the United States, Canada and Mexico, growing rapidly in Asia, but still
A favorite target for conspiracists today as well as in the past, a group of European intellectuals created the Order of the Illuminati in May 1776, in Bavaria, Germany, under the leadership of Adam Weishaupt (Atkins, 2002). In this regard, Stewart (2002) reports that, "The 'great' conspiracy organized in the last half of the eighteenth century through the efforts of a number of secret societies that were striving for
