The twentieth century brought about many changes to the world at large. Countries were becoming thoroughly modernized, vehicles were mass-produced for the first time, and people began to move into cities, all of which profoundly altered culture. Reflective of these massive societal changes is the modernist movement in literature, within which two particular hallmarks are notable: a lack of synchronicity in time and a new view of the past as it relates to the present. These hallmarks of twentieth century literature are exemplified in the T.S. Eliot poem The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.
In The Hobbit, wealth is a great motivator for the dwarves who venture to steal their hoard back from a dragon, Smaug. Yet, according to Marxist analyst Freedman, “Tolkien’s world is one in which the great majority of the actual material interests… are silently erased, to be replaced by…the abstract and essentially vacuous metaphysical battle between good and evil” (2002).

Wars are never welcome, but sometimes they are unavoidable. When the war breaks out, the more technologically progressive side becomes advantageous in the conflict. Nevertheless, when no one is technologically dominant, tactics gets crucial.
This essay is aimed to explain the impact of drug dealing on the economy using simple macroeconomic logic.

What Happened to African Americans During the Great Depression?
The time of the Great Depression is the time America’s worst economic crisis, where thousands of people lost their jobs, unable to find new ones, and thousands of families were forced into poverty. This period made the already quite gloomy economic situation much worse for African Americans.
Because Blacks were the first ones to lose their jobs, they suffered from joblessness in more ways than whites did. At the beginning of the US government help program, African Americans got significantly less support comparably to whites. Continue reading
