The making of a new nation. The Enlightenment in America. The emergence of the notion of the American Dream. The great Enlighteners: Crèvecoeur, Jefferson, Paine, Franklin. The American Enlightenment is the intellectual thriving period in the United States in the midtolate 18th century (17151789), especially as it relates to American Revolution on the one hand and the European Enlightenment on the other. Influenced by the scientific revolution of the 17th century and the humanist period during the Renaissance, the Enlightenment took scientific reasoning and applied it to human nature, society, and religion. American Enlightenment a gradual but powerful awakening that established the ideals of democracy, liberty, and religious tolerance in the people of America. If there were just one development that directly caused the American Revolution and uplifted the intellectual culture of the continent while it was only a British colony, it would be the American Enlightenment.

cry racism for us not hiring them? This book is not about separatism. Being a Capitalist Nigger does not involve asking for a separate land area for Black people; it does not involve asking all Caucasians to get out of Africa; it does not involve asking others to stop doing business in our neighbourhoods. It is not about calling people names. It is not about taking up arms to slaughter innocent people. However, if we agree to the Biblical teaching that all men are created equal, then it behoves us to understand that being a Capitalist Nigger means matching brain power for brain power with our conquerors – I feel humiliated using that word. Everywhere you go now in Africa, the craze is for cellular phones. The saddest thing is that people don’t know or understand how they work. No country in Africa manufactures its own telecommunications products. They haven’t even attempted to ask the Western companies to license them so that they
Many high-level positions in companies are filled by men even though the workforce in many developed countries is more than 50 percent female. Companies should be required to allocate a certain percentage of these positions to women. To what extent do you agree? In the 21st century it is all about gender equality and every individual wants to achieve high level position in their work place. In the past, women, in many societies, had less rights and privileges than men. The statement says that companies should give a certain number of higher positions to women. However, I do not agree with this requirement completely. Giving a certain percent of higher positions to women certainly is an easy solution but in my opinion it will bring even more sexism

which too much freedom of choice in making decisions about the matters that affect children is considered to be fatal to adult authority. Laura Purdy`s argument greatly illustrates the deep concern over the idea of losing control over children and failing to meet their basic needs if granting children rights. She is a fierce opponent to the liberal education and proponent of child development. She contends that children do not have equal status with adults as they do not possess the virtues of rationality and capability of making reasonable decisions about their lives.31 Purdy believes that `there are morally relevant differences between children and adults `in which irrationality is instrumental of justifying divergent treatment for children. 32 Purdy believes that children are `unfinished beings who need a period of development and 26 Childhood Matters: Social Theory, Practise and Politics, p. 125. 27 Such et al, p. 302.
