Butskellismits period Introduction Butskellismits period existed between the time when the second war had ended right when Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was albeit neutral. The concept was seen by some people as unreal. Fictional talks at the moment were major public policy collectivism regarding welfare state, collective decision making, as well as the mixed economy. “Evidence points out to the existence of Butskellism although, a post-war consensus was the word used to refer to the same: it might have had no universal support, but widely, people acclaimed of its existence and practiced it. Thus, it was a reality and not a myth” (Lee, 1994, p.57). The consensus was generally in social, economic and in the international world. This essay will argue reality and not a myth. Main body the post-war consensus traces back to 1942 when William Beveridge, who was a liberal economist, introduced a concept of the complete comprehensive welfare establishment in Great Britain.

how, in military history, the Western countries focused on realizing efficiency, honesty, virility, modernity, and progress The reading describes how, in military history, the Western countries focused on realizing efficiency, honesty, virility, modernity, and progress in addition to preferring manly combat. It also examines the factors that led to the reemergence of China as a military power across Asia after the Communist victory in the Chinese Civil War. Based on the Confucian system of ethics, China sought to distrust military men and the use of force aimed at establishing robust relations with neighbors like Japan. In simple terms, the main lesson learned here is that throughout history, China has entirely relied upon a system of static defense, as signified in the renowned Great Wall, the cultural seduction to wear down and ultimately defeat their enemies. This notion contrast with what has learned previously about the tenets of the military society whereby the military is considered as the prime root of war. In other words, military forces are responsible for fighting and serving the interests of the state. On the other…

The History of Recycling and its pros and cons Introduction Recycling is the process of converting waste material into useful products to reduce air and water pollution, reduce the usage of energy, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, and helps in lowering greenhouse gas emissions. The process of recycling has been practiced by people all over the world since time immemorial, with thorough advancements observed along the way. Recycling involves varieties of materials ranging from plastics, metal, paper, tires, glass, and textiles (Kaya, 2016). There has been evidence of various waste and metal being melted down for reuse.

Proposed Plan to Spend More on Prevention and Less on end-of-life Care Strengthening primary healthcare reduces the process of contracting the disease. Similarly, the model improves community surveillance to identify people with certain illnesses and treating them appropriately. The central pillar of the model is improving the continuity of care through increasing community participation, as described below. Primary Health Care The members of the community are the primary stakeholders of any health delivery system. Such people must understand the objectives and performance of a healthcare system. The process of educating the community is thus pivotal in enhancing continuity of care. People should receive empowerment on the signs and symptoms of minor illnesses. The health-seeking behavior of an empowered community improves drastically. The improvement translates to early detection and treatment of chronic disease. As a result, there is a change in the natural progression of the disease, an increase in life expectancy, and a reduction in the cost in the treatment. Community Education Similarly, individuals living within the catchment area of a given health facility must understand the options of linkage…

History of Labor and Work Conflicts between employers and employees are frequent in the labor sector. However, Labor laws are essential in the labor sector. This is because it ensures that both parties are not oppressed, the employer, and the employee. As opposed to the situation nowadays, companies suppressed their employees due to monopoly and lack of laws. This paper will discuss how workers tried to resist the unjust demands from their employers and how the current world solves that situation. Many workers who were not employed by the Railroad company supported the striking workers because they wanted them to resist unjust demands from their employer (Brecher, 2014). The Railroad company practiced monopoly since it was the only company that dealt with the rail transport system. The company cut the wages of engineers and other workers. This was unjustly, and other workers offered them support to force the company to stop the injustice. In their support, the people from Indianapolis repair shops refused to repair the company’s damaged engines. They aimed to support the striking workers to force the company…
History of Global Health Technologies In what ways do the technologies mentioned in these excerpts reflect new understandings of health, illness, and place in the early twentieth century? Ideas associated with clothing in relation to the preservation of the Europeans’ health within the tropical climate dates back to the seventeenth century. The physicians tended to believe that the weather had a direct effect on the creation of the disease. During this era, the tropical infections were hugely associated with the tropical heat. Hence, the appropriate dressing was essential to enhance the stability of the physiological functions. In the early periods of the twentieth century, the chemical emissions of the sun, in association with the heat, were introduced as detriments of the common diseases experienced in the areas. As a result, the topical mode of dressing changed. Regardless of whether heat or the chemical sunrays was the biggest concern, the fundamental concern of the travelers was to maintain the bodily appearance within the tropical areas. This factor was facilitated through the development of the tropic clothing to mimic the African outlook…
HISTORY OF PRE-COLONIAL AMERICA Introduction America is a continent situated at the western side of the globe. It is comprised of the North and South America. The larger part of North America is the world’s superpower; the United States of America (USA). The Article 1491 puts together the findings of archeologists, historians, geologists and even anthropologists to explain the culture of the Americas during the pre-colonial era. This paper gives the points in the article which are interesting and surprising and how this article may change our understanding of pre-colonial America. Body It is both interesting and surprising how the article addresses in depth and clearly two critical questions that had stunned scientists and anthropologists. According to Mann, (2005) the questions are one the peopling of the Americas (that is, how and when it happened) and the depopulation of the Americas thereafter. First, the article answers the question on peopling of the Americas simply by saying that the first peoples may have arrived 30,000 or more years ago. These people may have come by boats from Europe. It goes on…
