Rousseau & Rebellion



Rousseau says that the people should have only what they need and can take car of. He believes that if all available resources were scaled evenly that the people governed would become more united instead of living in comparison to one another. He says that the rulers should not oblige the people to adopt another's belief with condemnation. He says that by right the people are equals and getting rid of man-made social systems would allow people to adopt legitimate morals.

I say that I believe we are indeed equal by right and that our current social system allows judgement on others for not complying with certain ideals or ways of life. I say that if any Rousseau would agree more in having a democracy system as he believes that people should be able to follow their own beliefs but in goal of the greater good of the whole by majority ruling.



Machiavelli was only concerned about keeping power by means of manipulating the people and corruption which caused the rebellion against the King of Great Britain. The Declaration says that when the rights of the people are violated they have just cause to separate by rebellion to create a separate government that protects their rights..

I say that the means used to achieve Independence should of been more peaceful if that were even possible. I say that confidence is a matter of how well planned the rebellion was. A state built of violence can't condemn war in hope for peace. I say that Jefferson knew that even in worst case scenario he would have to do what it tool to achieve Independence. I say that Jefferson would have found the ways of Machiavelli inhumane and lickerish.

Plato &. Freud

PLATO QUESTIONS: 1. Consider the issue of what it is we know when we rely on our senses. Is sensory knowledge as unreliable as Plato thinks it is? Personally, I believe that each individual's perception is based on a number of factors. Those factors become how we analyze the things we sense which in fact can be from a faulty point of view.  2. Are we materialistic when we praise sense perception? What are the alternatives to any such materialism arising from overvaluing (or solely valuing) sense experience? In opinion, I believe that our praise of sense perception would be more narcissistic than materialistic. I think it is the cause if lack of conscience knowledge. 3. If we could perceive the world beneath sense experience, what would it be like? I find it hard to answer this question as I can not predict a different reality. I would guess that our perception would rathe be based off of facts and conscience which I believe would create a more just world.

Clarify in what way the “unnatural distinctions” affecting women in society cause them to behave as Wollstonecraft says they do. Do you feel it is a genuine cause- and-effect relationship? Women in society are prevented from fullfilliing their moral duties. 4. Describe Diversity in Schools according to Kozol and what your definition would be. Including present day civil right issues in lessons, have a mix of ethnicities together. 5.
