‘Peel did more to damage than to build the Tory Party in the years 1829 and 1846’. Assess the validity of this statement. Robert Peel’s time as Prime Minister can be looked at in two ways; either he was the benefactor of his country or a politician who betrayed party interest on numerous occasions. I believe that Peel did substantially more to build than damage the Tory party; it is because of his leadership, many social reforms came to pass but is also because of his leadership that the Tory party eventually split.
“My father, with tears in his eyes, tried to smile as one friend after another grasped his hand in a last farewell. Mama was overcome with grief. At last we were all in the wagons. The drivers cracked their whips. The oxen moved slowly forward and the long journey had begun.”
After massive and massive discussion in and out of the channels dedicated to congress, the Democrats are thought to have stated that they want to impeach Poke. So far as we’ve gathered anyway. Though this goes through three different parties. It goes through the Libertarians, the Green Dems, and the Radical Labour parties. Though the Libertarians are supposed to side with Poke, they’ve argued for the Green Dems and for The Radical Labours.
Populism and Progressivism were two very important movements in US history, that occurred during the outbreaks of the workers union after the civil war. These movements led to the formation of the Populist party in 1892 and the Progressive party in 1912. While there are many similarities between the two movements, they are also very different. The two parties fought for very similar things.

Can a Centrist candidate win an election? Yes, but not for the presidency. The Electoral College makes it nearly impossible for a third-party candidate to win the presidency. However, the whole thrust of "The Centrist Manifesto" is that the Senate is different.
The Populist Party otherwise called the People’s Party was founded before the Civil War, the party consists of farmers, laborers, and socialists, where most of the populist came from the South and the West. The party adopted a system to change the debt-stricken way how the farmers, support the laborers and the shortening of workdays for the industrial workers and a few types of reforms, for example the right to referendums, recall and female suffrage, which many farmers and workers believed that the Populist Party was a voice for their anger and a gross for inequality and injustice in the American society. In the meantime, Labor 's efforts to organize and collectively bargain with the trusts were systematically suppressed. All these things
The Know-Nothing began in 1849, later to be known as the American Party in 1854, was a secret organization made up of members who were opposed to immigrants and people who followed the Catholic Church. The Know-Nothing party got their name by the response “I know nothing” when asked about their beliefs (Ohio History Central, n.d.). You think being a secret group, saying “I know nothing” that people would catch on. Most members were middle class workers that feared competing for jobs with immigrants. Their plan was to prevent Catholics and Immigrants from being able to be elected in the political offices.
When trying to define a word such as Liberalism it seems difficult to find a solid definition. There are different forms of liberalism and different meanings depending on the time period it is being applied to (idea taken from Phil Badger author from philosophynow). To solve this ambiguity, I’ve decided to define liberalism based on the time period in which I will be conducting my research. Liberalism in the 1700s was the belief of freedom and equals rights generally associated with the enlightenment thinkers, John Locke and Montesquieu (as defined by wikipedia.org). Liberalism didn’t start in the 1700s.
The Pitfalls of Liberalism was a document by Stokely Carmichael who is known as one of the most recognized exponents of the “Black Power.” Movement. Stokely Carmichaels main argument in this document is that the efforts of Dr. Martin Luther King along with other civil rights activists had reached an endpoint since the use of “Widespread resistance within America” (238) was in effect. Throughout the semester, we have never seen a document where a leaders only solution to advance is by “calling for the mobilization of organized violence by African-Americans in order to seize political power” (238). The concept of calling upon one single race to take action is new.
Mexico’s history of single party dominance was dependent on an alliance which had a major labor base. Since the creation of the PRI, many characteristics of the labor base and its political role has changed. The major turning point for change were the economic transformations Mexico experienced during the 1980’s. Before these changes the governing party from the top used a popular alliance as a mechanism to control labor (Collier 1992). Labor after the 1980’s became fragmented, feminized, and informalized.
The overarching theme explored within this essay is the tendency of working-class conservatism within society. This has been analyzed above in regards to class-consciousness and hegemony. The popular Marxist explanation of working class Toryism sees a manifestation of false-consciousness on part of a large majority of the working class- a condition which is felt to be redeemable under the right conditions of proletariat education. In addition to this, some scholars have suggested that hegemonic pressures play a role in influencing the class consciousness of certain sects of persons within society. Political allegiances are to a large extent, a reflection of the vales persons within a society subscribe to in areas of their life outside the realm of politics.

In this essay I will discuss Marxism in relation to the book series Harry Potter written by J.K Rowling. Even though The Harry Potter series is a children’s book series, when they are read carefully, the readers can see aspects of Marxism in it.
