Their anger was made evident during the peasant disturbances of 1902. The landowners were also unhappy with the terms of emancipation. They lost the free labour of their serfs and a large amount of land. As a result many were facing huge debts by 1905. Another long-term cause of the 1905 Revolution was the general disappointment with which many Russian people viewed the reforms of the previous decades.
The mule, owned by Abner, is a very cheap alternative to a horse. The symbol of the horse and the mule is showing the difference of money in each family. With Abner always having to move due to his actions towards other, he is never able to make enough money to buy an actual horse, having to settle with a cheap mule to pull all of his family’s belongings. Another way that class distinction is shown in Barn Burning is Abner’s issues with families having a massive amount of money. Abner believes that people who don’t earn their money themselves have forgotten what their ancestors went through to make that money.
The people were desperate for jobs because of the world depression that had occurred. Plus the people were mainly farmers and were tied to the land. Money was poured into churches and monasteries rather than developing sustainable business or agriculture. Jobs were scarce, and it was very hard to make a living and support families.

Most people in this situation will go out and make their own money to try to get their own house, if not the society as a whole will label them as lazy people. A hornet’s nest becomes prevalent in the story when Jonathan finally decides to actually mow the lawn. This conflict can be described as man vs. nature. As described in the actual story, this was a very unpleasant situation for him.

The animals rebel against the owner after he drinks so much that he isn’t able to feed or take care of them. Which means that they are rebelling against their oppressors. In Syria the people are rebelling because the government is not taking care of them and they're not providing them with resources they need.
There were many failures in collectivisation, particularly in the initial phases - output fell in the 1930s largely for three reasons; the peasants resented the state taking their land, machinery and livestock, so they did not work as hard and put more effort into their private plots, where they could keep any profit generated - who wouldn't? These private plots - some 5% of the land provided as much as 25% of the agricultural produce of the country. Alongside the implementation of collectivisation was the policy of liquidating the kulaks. The Party said these were rich farmers - in reality they were the better farmers, they had improved their
The need for crop production was fueled by the lack of economic prosperity. This occurred right after World War II, which could explain why “more than half the people of the world are living in conditions approaching misery.. Their food is inadequate.” (3) People were faced with little to no food sources and disease. Because of World War II, the lands were fought on and filled with dirt, which was not usable for developing farms. It did not help the prosperity of agriculture in those lands. “The land is tired, worn out, depleted of plant nutrients.”(4) Document 3 is the inaugural address of the US president Harry Truman.
His parents were peasants, although his father had worked from being a miner to owning several foundries. Luther’s parents were extremely harsh, and his childhood was markedly unhappy. “Many years later he would still speak bitterly of some of the punishments he had suffered. Throughout his life he was prey to periods of depression and anxiety, and some scholars suggest that this was due to the excessive austerity of his early years.
