Motherhood Propaganda in Fascism Sax and Kuntz in the "Inside Hitler 's Germany: A Documentary History of Life in the Third Reich" indicate that fascism "emphasized the role of the mother within the family" and "women were assigned traditional domestic functions"(265), which shows women play the roles of classic family keepers with their initial motherhood. Both of the Italian historical film 1860 directed by Alessandro and the German melodramatic feature film La Habanera directed by Detlev Sierck
nation-states as the most important global actors? Corporatism, as a concept, is not the easiest to define, there is the simple, nineteenth century view of corporatism, in which states organize on the basis of interest groups. However, while the economic interest of a corporation may certainly be a motivation, a transnational corporation certainly did not necessarily begin on the basis of a common economic interest. In more modern terms, corporatism has become more of a byword for crony capitalism

of countries across the world. These organizations can be important players in three different political systems: pluralism, corporatism, and communism. Each system has its unique characteristics, and labor unions play different roles in each one. The essay will discuss the key roles of labor unions in each political system and the pros and cons of pluralism and corporatism for both organized labor and employers. Finally, explore whether U.S. unions should play a stronger role in U.S. politics. In
Fascist philosopher/thinker Giovanni Gentile shadow wrote Italian dictator Benito Mussolini’s statement defining “corporazione”, “Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the merger of state and corporate power.”* Accordingly, US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s (FDR) institution of the New Deal programs actually conceived life from General Hugh Johnson admiration of Mussolini 's National Corporatist system. Johnson, an administrator of the military mobilization program
Eric Foner is correct when he describes Reconstruction as “America’s unfinished Revolution”. In the early days of Reconstruction, the main purpose was to rebuild the South, but it soon became much bigger than that. Reconstruction made way to several changes in America. Reconstruction in America is an “unfinished revolution” because during the time period of 1865 and 1877, major changes were taking place due to the Civil War and the readmission of the South to the Union. Within the time frame
Street. He works with two copyists, and has recently hired a new scrivener named Bartleby. Bartleby seems to be efficient for a while, however, things changed when he refused to examine a document. Melville criticizes the concept of materialism and corporatism, through the usage of motifs, allusions, and symbolism. Melville uses Bartleby to criticize American materialistic values. The setting of the story plays an important role in the theme of the story. The offices were located in Wall Street, an
not all interests can organized equally or raise funds as effectively. Corporatism is a single association that represents each interest. It has a centralized system with limited peak association and labors and unions are under one group. Unlike pluralism, decisions in corporatism are made from the top down through negotiation. The government coordinates the meetings between the peak associations. Some strengths of corporatism are its effectiveness and consensus. Since the peak associations are involved
The Enemies of the Western Way: A Communist and Fascist Perspective “The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win.” ( Marx and Engels). In Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels 's revolutionary work, The Communist Manifesto the authors discuss an egalitarian utopia where the conflict between classes transforms from the inherent cause of oppression, into the driving force for change (Marx and Engels). The Manifesto paints a vivid picture of a constant battle between
primary ethical issues, include the effects of a consumerist culture, intense individualism, the rise of corporatism, intense materialism and morality of free market in determining values. Clapp (2010) explores
While modernization preached economic development through a process of acculturation in which the Latin American traditional society would shed its Catholic values and acquire modern, Western, and sometimes explicitly American values, studies of corporatism often warned their American readers that Latin America could not be
The Super Bowl is one of the most highly anticipated events in the United States each year. This is because it is not only celebrated by football fanatics, but it also draws in millions of viewers who watch for entertainment. These include commercials, halftime shows, and of course the game itself. It has evolved from 1967 to now, and the Super Bowl has become a cultural phenomenon since then. “Almost 100 million Americans followed the game live”. The Super Bowl will keep bringing more fans and views
In this paper I will be discussing “American Idiot” by Green Day as a protest song. A protest song, “is a song that is associated with a movement for social change and hence part of the broader category of topical songs or songs connected to current events” (Google, 2015). People who feel strongly towards a certain political view within society create protest songs, and this is the only way they know how to express their opinions.

his father truly loves him. Nishi explains that his father left him to marry a woman that the company had picked out for him. Instead of seeing his father for the man that he is, Nishi sees a man that was corrupted and compelled by the forces of corporatism to betray his family. He is not avenging his father, he is avenging the theft of his idyllic childhood. Nishi could have possibly accepted that his father left to make a better life for himself, and then share it with his family, but when his
To have a better understanding of how Capitalism and Christianity are interwoven to America, we should first understand what Capitalism means. Many people think of Capitalism with “corporatism” a society of private corporations serving as an organ to political representation in which we could see this today in the U.S systems.

2. Compared to the Collins line, the Vanderbilt line was much more successful and benefited a much larger portion of the market. Collins operated a firm that was very inefficient and required government funds to remain alive. Without the continuous subsidies, Collins would not be able to compete with competition. In order for a free market to operate effectively, the federal government must not heavily interfere with subsidies. This happened to countless firms throughout history, from Collins's line
costs of the environmental problem. Radicals can see the costs that are distributed unevenly by those in the South and by the poorer groups in the developed North. The radical theory also known as Marxism has been revived by resurgent transnational corporatism. Radicals believe that capital will capture the state and force them to put corporate interests about their own citizens. Marxist use the United States to explain this concept. They state that in the face of global crisis the United States will

This formation and implementation are not without struggles between the executive branch and Congress, yet, interest groups with a stake in the policy also seek to influence the policy process. Scholars highlight arguments as to who controls and influences the bureaucracy the executive, legislative, or pluralistic interest groups. No matter who influences the bureaucracy
Postmodernism is a departure from modernism that combines government, technology, and corporatism into one big impersonal system where individuality and individual meaning are undermined. American writers have showed the change from modernism to postmodernism through their work. In 1930, William Faulkner showed this change with his novel, As I Lay Dying. The members of the Bundren family in the story are true representations of the postmodern people because even though they are all a part of one
A Deeper Look into Fascism and Fascist Governments The end of World War I brought devastation to much of Europe and with that devastation, came great change politically and socially. The Treaty of Versailles was one of the peace treaties that ended World War I and ended the state of war between Germany and the allied powers. The treaty stated that Germany and some of its allies, including Italy, were responsible for the outcome of the war and were required to pay restitution for the damages. This
