the people of Indonesia have been able to overcome their differences. The spirit of musyawarah (to deliberate or confer), mufakat (to agree), and gotong-royong (mutual assistance) that have been instilled by their fore-father have helped in achieving peace between the people's groups. We have yet find this quality in any other nations of the world. I. INTRODUCTION I have been away from this country for almost two decades. Being born and raised in this country, I felt a longing to return to
Deception in Sophocles' Philoctetes and Hesiod's Theogony For many centuries, the art of deception has been a powerful tool for achieving goals, and it has spawned the ancient debate of the ends justifying the means. In the tragedy Philoctetes by Sophocles and in Hesiod's Theogony, there are many instances of deception, particularly on the part of men in the texts. For each of them, the deceit is justified as a means of building and maintaining a reputation or obtaining power. Ultimately
Olivar, Marqz Verone V. Political Science 180 2014 -12667 Prof. Jean Paul Zialcita A Quest for peace and kemerut Why do states promote democracy The history of mankind has been plagued with wars and conflicts to alleviate the hunger for power and domination over his brethren, and ambitiously, over the world. And through it all, countries have tried almost all ways possible to avoid such tragedies – proposing, delegating, even going to war themselves. One major solution advocated
Woodrow Wilson’s Hope for International Peace “There must be, not a balance of power, but a community of power; not organized rivalries, but an organized peace.” (Cooper 366). These words of wisdom from the twenty-eighth president of the United States, Woodrow Wilson, truly expressed his ultimate goal of world peace and international collaboration. This honorable American leader used his powerful influence as president to encourage cooperative world associations and negotiations in order to maintain
We all hear the word peace, but can we define the word peace? Sounds easy but is more difficult than that, we can’t just have a blunt answer. I believe my view of peace would be a Marxist and Realism view. Which is the control should be given to us and not government and realism which is to see the actual truth. I believe peace in our society should be as a negative peace with no violence and basically a pacifist type which would be no war against all means of violence. This is hard to see in our
inner peace and/or world peace by linking their relevant sacred texts to their principal teachings. World peace is an ideal of freedom, peace, and happiness among and within all nations. It is the professed ambition of many past and present world leaders. It is the utopian ideal of planetary non-violence by which nations willingly cooperate, either voluntarily or by virtue of a system of governance, which prevents warfare. Both Christianity and Islam explore the possibility of world peace in their
For and Against Pacifism Pacifism subscribes to the idea of peace being the best goal and they best means of achieving peace is always through peaceful methods. So pacifists reject the use if physical force, even in the defence, and maintain war is always wrong. When it comes to pacifism there are arguments both for and against its wide spread use. Arguments for include the teachings of Jesus, which show that he taught about love our neighbours as ourselves and that we should turn our

Management is defined as the process of setting and achieving goals through the implementation of some basic management functions. These functions include planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. By using these key tools, one can create an organization as a whole consisting of unified parts acting in
The Chi Omega Spirit - Overcoming Obstacles and Achieving Success For as long as I can remember I have set high goals for myself regarding my future, my friendships, and my education. Entering college with these standards I knew that I wouldn’t settle for less than my best, and I would strive to amaze myself at my success. One thing I never fit into my planned path of achievement was any type of struggle, or obstacle that could alter the way I have thought for so long. The first month of college
discords, attract the attention of many world peace advocates. Many of these activists would like to see the end of wars, violence and military intervention in under-developed countries, as well as the enforcing of human rights to all citizens. Due to the ever-changing worldwide status, many activists have different ideas on how world peace should or can be achieved, both Malala Yousafzai and Hillary Clinton, civil rights activists, believe that world peace can be obtained through equality, education
I believe peace is within us. Humans have peace locked inside and is only unlocked when a crisis is presented. When a crisis is active that 's when we strive for peace. The way humans commit to peace is very selfish. We only look to peace as a safety net. Throughout epochs of history; we see humans fall prey to violence but also we see them burst with peace. When destruction happens in our world, we see ambitious individuals and groups fight for peace. This only happens when things are dark and morbid
Recognition and Equality in The Color Purple The book, The Color Purple, by Alice Walker is a good example on how over the years women have been making remarkable strides towards achieving success, recognition and equality. From the day they began their closeness to each other, bringing unity in which they never quite used to get in progress of their high quality goal. Their particular goal was against greatest freedom of the man’s rights. It was hard to maintain due to them not be able to point
to use force, coercion, and manipulation must later use more force, coercion, and manipulation precisely because their ability to influence - truly lead - is diminished. In my company I have never seen our lead to use any force to associates for achieving goals, because he’d like to be a true leader for a long time. I believe that there are times in the life of a team or organization when the formula leader appropriately exercises the authority of his or her position or deal with organizational issues
Both Islam and Christianity promote the concept of peace within religious communities and throughout the world. The sacred texts of these religious traditions provide the principal teachings on peace and acts as an incentive towards the contribution of each religion to world peace. As a response to the issue of world peace, both Islam and Christianity are contributing to a significant process towards world peace at a number of different levels through initiatives, organisations, public statements
pursuing peace and justice at the same time is ideal since the armed conflict would end, and the “bad guys” would have to pay for their wrong doing. Pursuing both at the same time is a difficult initiative due to the different paths undertaken when pursuing peace and justice, the two reasons this essay will focus on are the ideas of forgiveness within peace and fairness within justice. Contemporary peace theorists refer to two types of peace: positive and negative peace. Positive peace refers the
We all hear the word peace, but how can we define it? It may sound easy but, it is far more complicated than one may think; we cannot just have a blunt answer. My view of peace, different from another person’s, would be a Marxist and Realism view. Marxism is the view that control should be given to us and not the government, while realism is the view to see the actual truth. I believe peace in our society should be as negative peace with no violence, basically a pacifist type, which would be no
it is fallacious to say that the middle ground is correct without careful consideration and critical thinking. The problem is there is a flaw in all options, that is, none of them is complete, with wars taking the lives of thousands of people, and peace cannot always solve the problems. An example of a somewhat recent just war is the 6th of
released in 1970. The late 60’s was the time of the Vietnam War and also the time when the peace movement was at its peak. Anti-war demonstrations were a common sight on every street corner. Anti-communist sentiments were at an all time high following the war. The countless lives lost by both sides made plenty realize the fruitlessness of war and prompted them to spread the message of love, unity and peace. Due to ubiquitous demonstrations all over the world, there was social unrest. Compulsory military

Liberalism, is based on the idea that that the ideological preferences can determine the actions, peaceful or not, taken by states, citizens, and domestic actors. In John M. Owen’s essay, “How Liberalism Produces Democratic Peace,” Owen examines this theory using the democratic peace theory. He argues, due to liberal ideology and liberal democratic institutions, “that liberal ideas cause liberal democracies to tend away from war with one another, and that the same ideas prod these states into war with
