Business Effect of Russia's Lack of Infrastructure
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper examining the lack of information management infrastructure as a factor contributing to the vastly uneven growth of the economy before its financial collapse in 1998. Many individual businesses were well equipped with the technological standards of business today, but they were concentrated in only a few major industries. All other segments of the economy did not fully share that good fortune—not only was infrastructure lacking in many areas but where it did exist there often were no qualified technical personnel to manage them. Observers believe that Russia will fare much better when the economy grows again. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Catherine the Great of Russia
[ send me this paper ]
(6pp) It has been argued that Catherine was an
educated ruler, not necessarily an enlightened one.
The argument being that the Enlightenment was a
time when people were discussing abstract ideas,
and attempting to reach consensus in the process.
However in Europe this was mainly discussion
between intellectuals, and since at the time of
Catherine's reign only two percent of her subjects
were literate, it would lead to a narrow ray of
enlightenment on the formal sense. With the data
out of the way, I believe that Catherine made every
effort, and did make, or cause change, considering
the social environment that was her arena.

Causes of World War I
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper weighing Waltz’s (1965) three “images” that he says can be seen as being instrumental in causing war against Tuchman’s (1994) account of the beginning of World War I. Waltz’s (1965) images are International Conflict and Human Behavior; International Conflict and the Internal Structure of States; and International Conflict and International Anarchy. All can be seen as being instrumental in various examples; the thesis here is that International Conflict and International Anarchy was the most important of the three in causing World War I.

Challenges Faced by a Newly-Independent Nation -- Croatia
[ send me this paper ]
This
5 page report discusses the fact that some of the 21st century
world’s newest independent nations are actually nations with some
of the oldest cultures. However, for whatever political,
economic, or imperialistic reason they were able to escape, they
have found themselves facing the multiple challenges of
establishing their governments, determining their national
priorities, providing the social services their people need, and
paying for it all. Croatia is used as an example to illustrate
such a process. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
