Just a few years before this document was written such events as the Massacre at Wounded Knee happened, I believe this was just too fresh in the minds of government officials that they didn’t want to risk having another situation similar to this with the Chinese. There were some very relevant points to be considered such as the Chinese were only contributing their wages to society if it was absolutely necessary for their survival. They would live in the worst of conditions and eat as little as possible to try to save as much as they could to take back to their families in China. This is a very real problem because they start to become leeches, for lack of a better word, and they put none of their wages back into the US economy. This could in turn hurt the economy if too many of the immigrants were living this kind of

Being afraid of inferior if a fight really happened, the Vietnam Communist Government hopelessly gave its island up to China. The main reason of this yield is that Vietnam was not ready for a war yet; and its leader didn’t have a really powerful army in hand. So, it’s willing to give up in front of stronger militaries. Another, Machiavelli argued that the leader should take control of his people by force rather than by law. Oppositely, Lao-Tzu admitted that a good leader should not rule his people, but to follow.
Thus, the society would be classless and stateless. Marx viewed life in one way that was to help those of the poor be equal to those of the rich. Marx was an ethical, creative, and influential man whose goal was to create equality for all people of the world. In the essay Marx discusses several important reasons such as, the communists' theory of history and the relationship between bourgeoisie and proletarians, the communists and the
Mao adapted Communist ideas to China and he followed in Joseph Stalin’s footsteps by abusing his power and crippling the Chinese in fear with his totalitarian rule. In this essay I will be exploring the factors contributing to one of the biggest disputes in historical knowledge. Was Mao Zedong’s role in achieving communism genuine or has it been exaggerated and morphed by the Asian populations living under absolute despotism. “Idealism is no panacea in a totalitarian regime.” 1 - Quoted by a 20th century philosopher. It wasn’t said about Mao however it adapts to his ideas and aspirations.
The Mongols had foreign administrators in China because they did not trust any Chinese person to be left in charge therefore foreign people were used. While in the Middle East the Mongols felt that leaving the Persians to have some charge would be the best for the people and result in benefits. Along with similar and different political effects of Mongol rule, there were similar and different economic effects of Mongol rule on China and the Middle East. The economic effects of Mongol rule on China and the Middle East were similar in that both were forced to give up money. In
The roman empire the economy system got weak. The economy system got weak because of the tribes and pirates outside of the empire disrupting the trade. Trying to expand to their limit, the romans had less of new sources like silver and gold. Extremely desperate for the new sources the government raised all of the taxes. They started to cheat people out of their silver and gold by putting less and less of silver and gold in their metal.
Though this proposition is correct, I argue that the decentralization of the Chinese system of governance was an integral reason for its inability to cope with the challenges posed by modern nation-states. This decentralization is characterized by many factors including internal social unrest, lack of strong leadership, corruption, and traditional ideals. The already decentralized, corrupt state was thus easily exploited by modern imperialist powers due to their superior military technology and organization. Eventually, China’s decline and successive defeats led to the fall of the last Chinese empirical dynasty. To begin, it is necessary to have a strong understanding of China’s background as an empire and what led to its decline during this period.
People will always seek a better place to live, for there is always -in their opinion- a better country or region to live in. The reasons may be because of unfair treatment, such as in the movie China Rising, where the Chinese sold their homes for much less then they should have been. It also may be because of underpay and overwork as seen in the movie China Blue. It may also be because of dangers in the countries, such as in the movie Go Back Where You Came From, where people that lived in war torn countries, or countries under the influence of dictatorship, where you rights are ignored and your free will taken. In countries and places like these, the citizens want to find safe place, where they can rest assured, where they do have rights, and where their cries for mercy are not simply ignored and swept aside like dust.
Their goal is not perfect equality, because people differ in ability, and some work harder than others. The goal is equality of opportunity-sometimes called social democracy.
