Reflection Of Divergent

Many of these factions try to gain popularity for a candidate who wants a position in the government; this is a simple and fair way to win. Also in today's world you don't hear much about factions having conflicts with each other, since the government is big enough and pays attention to everyone.

Divergent is a dystopian novel that takes place in a futuristic Chicago. The setting also looks like a perfect Utopia, but as you go on reading you find out that it has a lot of problems. In the novel there was a war that was caused by differences in people's ideologies. The war caused Chicago to be divided into five factions. Each faction has a virtue which they value and cultivate. The five factions are Abnegation, Amity, Candor, Dauntless, and Erudite. The Abnegation faction values selflessness, the Amity peace, the Candor honesty, the Dauntless bravery, and the Erudite intelligence. Throughout the novel the main character is Tris which was born in Abnegation and chose to go to the Dauntless faction. Chicago in the novel is governed by a group of people from

In the first paragraph, it talks about how a well-constructed union needs to be able to control the violence of a faction. There are problems in factions ,for example “the governments are too unstable, public goods are disregard in the conflict of rival parties, measures are too often decided not according to the rules of justice and the rights of the minor parties, but by the superior force of an interested and overbearing majority”. Majority rule overruns minorities or the rights of minorities.

What are the two ways to control factions? A: The ways to control a faction is that if a faction is less than a majority, then rely on majority rule to control it. The second is that if a faction has a majority, then rely on the type of political system to control it.

Changes in life can be tough to go through and sometimes they can be easy. Some of these things are harder than others and some can be a better choice. Like moving is one thing that changed my way i looked at people. Then there is growing up, growing up can be hard. Last but not least there is education. These things that you experience can change your perspective on how you look at life.

One person might say that anarchy would be the only way to have complete and utter freedom, while others would go as far as to believe a controlled communist government is the best route to achieving liberation. Factions (a group of people who agree on certain topics) are inevitable, due to the nature of man. As long as men hold different opinions, have different amounts of wealth, and own different amount of property, they will continue to fraternize with people who are most similar to them. In Federalist #10, James Madison summed up factions

Accepting only the best decisions in life is not always the right choice. Experiencing new things can increase people’s knowledge, and become someone of new and different value during their time in this world. They are able to obtain something that everyone will cherish when they face horrific situations, and overcome it. With all those successes, people are then given the chance to go down a new road. The change may be good, or may even be something terrible, but in the end, people will become their own person with a unique mindset of things. Taking opportunities can lead to positive or negative change.

Two ways in which factions can be cured are by removing its causes, and controlling its effects. In other words, destroying the liberty essential to its existence and giving every citizen the same passions, opinions, and interests.

- One difference I could make on Cyclone is the way people treat one another. I dislike seeing players rage in chat for half an hour about a base getting raided or losing a PvP match. If I were there, I would settle the situation to the best of my ability. Now trust me, I love all the competition that comes with Factions(and other servers), but I don't like seeing it get out of hand, possibly to the point where it could get a player banned. Remember, I'm not a biased person, no matter if you're my enemy or ally, I give everyone the same amount of

These conflicting views have obviously led to several conflicts. The extent of these conflicts depend on how quickly they are able to agree or until another party steps in. Recent race rallies started peacefully, the opposition showed up, and things became out of hand from there, including someone driving a car through multiple people. This is a prime example of how factions could silence the opposition. If a group of people in a faction make certain threats, then people might be afraid to speak against them. The ta tics they use, depending on the size of the threat, could be intimidating enough to keep the counter-argument from speaking. In these cases, one side of the argument would have a really easy time getting certain laws passed that benefit

According to the essay, factions means an adverse act of some people, a group of individuals or groups of citizens, who are inspired by some common passions towards the rights of other citizens. The essay is mainly discussing the issue of factions and ways to deal with it.

Aristotle defines three causes of factional conflict. First, is a state of mind that leads someone to form a faction. Second, is what can be gained or lost in forming a faction. Third, are the causes of political disputes leading to factions (1302a:20). In democracies, factional conflict only arise between the poor majority and the few rich. In oligarchies, two sorts of factional conflicts arise, on against each other and the other against the people. In addition, there are eleven potential causes of constitutional change which can

The thought process of changing factions occurs to every transfer and divergent. Since Tris was divergent her process of identifying herself and choosing which faction she’d belong to decides in what group she’d be in. Some might consider Amity and Abnegation to be a faction in a lower rank while Candor and Erudite on a higher one. The elements of this Divergent world has been present for a long time. Identifying a poor person to be less than other people has been around since the medieval times

The ‘stiffs’ have never been one for distinctiveness. This causes a conflict of interest between the others and them, resulting from only Abnegations needs being met and decisions being made carelessly, with little regard for individual needs, looking instead at the ‘big picture.’ With Abnegation’s submissive nature, they allow Erudite to create false suspicion surrounding them and the government. Leading all the other factions to believe they are uncertain, is the first step for a complete overthrow of the government. Others believe that they are weak-willed, which also causes more problems as Abnegation attempts to keep their instilled power while in the face of popular opposition. The factions do not take each other into account when making decisions as shown by Candor’s pitiless court rulings, and Erudite’s and Dauntless’s governmental alliance, a vulnerability from all points of the spectrum. Factions were built to create harmony, all representing an equal part in society, but how Abnegation was originally established allowed for more power in the hands of the selfless, and less in the hands of some possible better candidates for this high position of authority, but the Abnegation are not the sole problem in this controversial issue.

One common reason for the downfall of many societies is political imbalancement. This is true for the society in my novel, Divergent. In the story, the protagonist Beatrice (a.k.a Tris) lives in post-apocalyptic Chicago, Illinois. The citizens are divided into five factions: Abnegation (the selfless), Candor (the honest), Erudite (the intelligent), Dauntless (the brave), and Amity (the peaceful). All political power in the government resides with the Abnegation faction, being that they are supposedly incorruptible. This angers some of the other factions, such as the Erudite. “Perhaps the answer is that we have entrusted our city to a group of proselytizing tyrants who do not how to lead us out of poverty and into prosperity”(Roth 233-244). The Erudite publish many diminishing newspaper articles, and eventually spark a civil war. Such is the same with Ancient Rome. “Octavian knew that the Romans prized their republic. He told them he was restoring the authority of the Senate. But in fact, he was in complete control” (TCI Lesson 8, Section 6). As an empire, ancient Rome was governed by one
