Famous Thinkers PHL/458 April 19, 2012 Certain distinctions can be found between famous thinkers and ordinary individuals. Famous thinkers possess many of the same traits and can come up with a multitude of ideas for solving the same problem.

In a society, everyone has a unique sense of identity and self-worth that promote the construction of the society. However, this uniqueness must be emphasized by a vital tool that forges cultural ties, conducts businesses and maintains a political unity : an official language. Although the linguistic diversity among US Citizens can be valuable for the country, it is practical and beneficial to have English as official language since it already functions as one for many years. The controversy over establishing English as the official language of the US is not new. This issue has surfaced at various times throughout US history with arguments, remaining the same with little variation.
Karl Marx, Max Weber, and Emile Durkheim are three such great thinkers. The lasting legacy that each left behind offers us today ideas and possibilities for how to think and function in these modern times. Their thoughts prove to us that man (and woman) has not changed so much over time, but that we are very much connected to history, even despite our technological advances. The development of social order is a question of constant controversy as we try and understand the forces that shape the structures we live within. Is it the tension between the oppressors and the oppressed that mold social structure or is it the ideas and values that dictate the type of laws that govern us?
The roots of this form of advertising are in the United States, where this is still most commonly practiced. However, there are still exceptions to this, as marketers across the world have tried to place different brands into a variety of media outlets to reach the consumers (Lee, Sung, & Gregorio, 2011). The research findings of this study suggest, “…decisions regarding product placement should be based on an understanding of cultural characteristics influencing consumers’ beliefs, values, norms, and attitudes” (Lee, Sung, & Gregorio, 2011, p. 377). What this shows is that cultural characteristics must be taken into consideration when using product placement. This can have an impact on society because America is a melting pot of different cultures.
Puritanism and its Influence on Early American Literature The Puritans had a profound effect upon American culture. As a political, social, and cultural force, Puritanism lasted until around 1728. The term "Puritan" first began as an insult applied by traditional Anglicans to those who criticized or wished to "purify" the Church of England. "Puritan" refers to two distinct groups: "separating" Puritans, such as the Plymouth colonists, who believed that the Church of England was corrupt and that true Christians must separate themselves from it; and non-separating Puritans, such as the colonists who settled the Massachusetts Bay Colony, who believed in reform but not separation. Ironically enough, out of these two groups, were two notable men, William Bradford and John Winthrop, whose life’s work soon became influential pieces of American literature.
