The topic of my propaganda poster is the Lateran Accords, these accords game the church their own country. Mussolini gave the Pope the city of the Vatican to get on the pope’s good side. This wasn’t the only thing Mussolini did to gain the pope’s trust. Mussolini shut down many nightclubs and wine vineyards. He even baptised his children and got married under the Catholic church. Mussolini looked at the Catholic church as an army of 400 million scattered around the world. If he got the church to accept fascism then he could draw many other Italians and catholics to accept their message. This accord also meant that the Pope favors Italian Fascism and allowed many people to embrace it
Though the treaty of versailles created peace and harmony in many nations after the first world war it left Germany to be humiliated and dishonored and to be worthless as a result Germany revolted, plunging the world into a second world war.
There is not much that separates our kind from lower species of life. Our intellect, communication skills and opposable thumbs are a few of the many advantages to being a human. Human’s ability to construct a deep and rewarding lifelong friendship is no less incredible than any of the previously mentioned traits. These friendships are an integral part of our lives each and everyday, and friendships that last can certainly help lead to ones success later on in life. I have had many very close friends in my life and they all have helped me in their own way. Their strengths and abilities have immensely helped me in areas that might otherwise be weaknesses. In The Pact, three youths relied on each other’s guidance and strengths
I would recommend, “The Pact: Three young men make a promise and fulfill a dream” to eleventh grade students for several reasons. First factor, throughout this whole novel it gives you a wakeup call. For example, life in college is not that easy as you think, they got in to a lot of trouble, and throughout all that they were given a second chance in life. Second factor, Depicts transition from high school to college. They knew college is different from high school because of their own experience. They struggled throughout college, they financially couldn’t pay their books and other stuff they need to fro their classes. Then, this novel teaches you life lessons. Throughout this novel you will see how hard they had it and they still chased
I found it difficult to relate with the book, The Pact, for near the first half of the story. The three boys, Rameck, Sam, and George all grew up in impoverished neighborhoods in New Jersey. They were surrounded by drugs, violence, theft, prejudice, and death. None of the 3 had a father figure within their home while growing up and discovered that it was extremely difficult to find any positive role models within their area. As kids, Sam and Rameck both caved under the peer pressure and became entangled in immoral activity. Rameck had even let adrenaline take over during a fight and stabbed a man in the thigh with a switchblade. As a result he spent 4 days in jail, some time on house arrest, and faced attempted
The image I choose to use for propaganda is a little boy wearing a Nazi hat, above the child it goes to say “is he your child? You don’t want that" and under that it says, "Buy WAR BONDS before is too LATE! “. I believe the purpose of this image is to say hey you don’t want your child to become a Nazi soldier. So if you buy war bonds everything will be okay. The reason I select this artifact is because the little kid caught my eye with his blue eyes, blonde hair, and the innocence of his smile.
What responsibility did each of the “Big Three” have for the failure of the Versailles Treaty to bring peace to Europe? Be sure to discuss what each wanted to accomplish.
The novel The Pact which was read over the summer by Penn State students was considered interesting to some and dull to others. I personally enjoyed the book since I could relate to the book in more ways than one. The story takes pace in an inner city setting with three young men who become doctors and plan to give back to the community in any way they possibly can. The three young men are known as Sam, George and Rameck. Each of these characters posses a different personality which contributes to the book as a whole.
After reading The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz I realized I’ve been living dreams of other people in my life and not my own. It was decided early on what I should do, what’s possible and what’s not. Starting at birth we are told what to think by our parents, schools, and church. Subconsciously, we have made agreements with them to live our life according to their rules. Don Miguel believes that these agreements are self-limiting and shares four agreements that if we adapt into our lives we will reach true peace and happiness. The book made so much sense to me, but the hard part is to actually commit to living out the four agreements. In short, the four agreements are listed below:
Alike, “The Poster” was the most prominent form of psychological manipulation during Stalin's reign. Until World War I the poster had avoided social themes. However, as Stalin’s Russia rose to war and as a world power, the posters took a turn to be commercial and cultural, an attempt to develop an expanding market and advertise various entertainments. The posters of World War II took on a new task: to mobilize the population in support of the war effort. Stalin’s Posters featured themes of mobilizing the armed forces, reconstructing the economy, as well as various specific war time problems. It was at this point that the government began to make efforts to “shape public opinion” and “arouse patriotic feelings”. The government assigned this task to the mass media. Every political event in Russia found resonance in
Italian Fascism is an authoritarian and nationalistic system of government and social organization, it was the political result of the relationship between socialist and nationalist rhetoric. It is a form of governance which employs intolerant views and practices, advocating traditionalism, interventionism and sameness rather than individualism. In order to promote their totalitarian ideals during the 1930s to 1945 fascist politicians such as Benito Mussolini, who had previously been a socialist newspaper editor, employed propaganda that included virtually all modes of media: the press, posters and film. The widespread dissemination of totalitarian ideals infiltrated into the school system where young Italians born from 1910 to 1935 were taught to “obey and fight.” The purpose of this paper is to analyse the diffusion of the Italian Identity through fascist propaganda from 1922-1943 and the identity that was diffused as a result of the exploitation of Mussolini’s various propaganda mediums. Did fascist propaganda contribute to the diffusion of an Italian identity? If so, what identity was diffused?
The US border with Canada was finally determined by the Rush-Bagot Treaty, the Convention of 1818, and the Treaty of 1846. To begin, the Rush-Bagot Treaty limited the number and type of naval vessels the US and Britain could have on the Great Lakes. This was important because the Great Lakes were within both Canada and the US, and if one country had many naval vessels on their side of the lake it could threaten the other side, leading to a potential dispute. Next, the Convention of 1818 drew the border between the US and Canada by creating the border along the 49th parallel. This was important because for years there had never been a definite border, just a rough approximation. Lastly, the Treaty of 1846 wrapped up the package by settling the
Constant agreements started to happen between the provisional government and the Canadian government, but the provisional government wanted Manitoba to become a province. They wanted this to happen because provinces are not under the rule of another, whereas territories, they fall under the obligations of the Canadian government. The Canadian government issued the Manitoba Act on May 12, 1870. Macdonald, the prime minister at the time, came to an understanding to allow equal to the Metis and French along with the English Protestants in Red River. Since the Manitoba act was established, it opened many opportunities especially the one that lead to making Manitoba a province. The “North-Western Territories” were the new names for Rupert’s land
1. The Versailles settlement quickly gained a reputation as ‘a Carthaginian peace’. What was meant by this, and was it a fair and accurate assessment.
The Maastricht Treaty was a complex 1993 agreement that transformed the European Economic Community into the European Union so as to increase political and economic cooperation in Europe. Political objectives were given far greater consideration in the agreement than in any preceding agreement among the member states. Goals included improving the democratic legitimacy and efficacy of insitutions, furthering the economic and monetary union of states, and facilitating the development of a common foreign and security policy as well as broadening the social sphere of the existing European Community. The first pillar of the agreement established the European Community and Parliament,
The military disaster which befell the Mid-European Confederacy in the autumn of 1918 was the signal for immediate political revolutions within its members. The revolutions, though precipitated in several instances by Socialists, proved to be uniformly mild and more conducive to democratic nationalism than to any basic social change.
