Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

Using Fukuyama’s three categories of institutions, one can compare Ottoman and French civilizations. The purpose of this paper is to look at strength’s and weakness of both civilizations in regards to the state, rule of law and accountability. Fukuyama is correct when he argues that a modern liberal democracy needs a state, rule of law and accountability. To begin with, a state is a centralized authority that holds military power on a selected territory. It is the armed forces that keep

revealing characteristics that both countries have used to define their soldiers: endurance, determination, initiative and 'mateship'. For the Ottomans, it was a brief respite in the decline of their empire.

Rekindle Candle Introduction Generally, we are so persistent with our own view and thinking, seldom think out of the box. Sometimes, a great invention that brings advantages to humankind just needs our creativity. When we are able to think critically and creatively, a lot of things will be definitely different. For an instance, if Newton did not think deeply why the apple will fall to the ground instead of accelerate towards the sky, then he will never realise the gravity. Therefore, we would

World War one, or ‘The Great war’ first started in late June 1914, when Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated causing threats to start the war by mid August. This was a chance to introduce the world to modernised weaponry such as gas bombs, machine guns and tanks. Australia has always been known as the country where anything goes. Where we enjoy gathering together to enjoy all of Australia’s achievements. That was no different in 1914

It is on this legacy that Mustafa Kemal founded the Turkish Republic in 1923: a centralised secular nation-state. He built upon the secular institutions of the Tanzimat period and did away with the Islamic ones to foster modernisation (to which secularisation was seen as inseparable)

Education, the process of receiving or giving systematic instruction, is something widely treasured around the world. Everyday a student learns something new. To be a teacher to me means to be the best educator, you can be, to help, to learn, and to change. With being a teacher comes great responsibility.

The March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom in 1963 peacefully gathered approximately 250,000 citizens together to protest the high level of black unemployment

This issue is one that has been, and still is, contested across the world. It is easy to argue that there are examples of both successful democracies and dictatorships (especially in regards to the Middle East and the North Africa region), as well as examples of those that are failing, particularly in an economic sense. Whilst it is indeed argued that the introduction of democracy to many of the Middle Eastern countries may indeed encourage economic development, there are also many arguments as to

Nationalism is the “desire of a large group of people to create or maintain a common statehood (Goldschmidt, 164)”. Nationalism which was a European idea, came with ways of western thinking which meant modern education, a focus on infrastructure, enlarged armies, etc. Nationalism also brought the thinking of creating nations based on race, language, religion, etc. (Goldschmidt, 165) Consequently this way of thinking has helped to create some of the biggest conflicts in the world today including the
