Abstract
This paper examines how, in "In How Good People Make Tough Choices", Rushworth M. Kidder argues that men and women have differing moralities based on three specific differences. It shows how men focus on ethics of justice, while women focus on ethics of care; how men focus more on equality, while women focus on ensuring nobody gets hurt; and finally, how women focus more on networks of lateral relationships, while men focus more on hierarchical structures. By researching each of these three specific factor,s it shows that men and women do have different moralities, while also showing the basic differences in the genders that account for these differing moralities.

From the Paper
"The first difference is that men focus on ethics of justice while women focus on ethics of care. Ethics of justice refers to a focus on rights, while ethics of care refers to a focus on responsibilities. The main difference between the two approaches is that the ethics of justice makes the decision black and white. When looking at a situation based on justice, a person can determine clearly and definitely whether a decision is right or wrong. In contrast, the ethics of care makes the decision much less certain. When considering responsibilities, the decision becomes gray with it difficult to justify the decision being made. A person making a decision based on ethics of care is likely to say that they did what felt right."

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that for Thomas Paine, liberty was "common sense," the catchphrase that he used to describe his sermonizing pamphlet of 1776 denouncing monarchy. The writer notes that while this might have seemed nonsense to a colonist of a dozen years earlier, in 1776 it roused a people ready for independence. The writer then points out that Adams regarded the form of government as important and that he firmly believed that the separation of powers in government was essential to control human nature's tendency to become tyrannical. The writer notes that, unlike most of those around him, Hamilton favored monarchy and felt there were sound reasons for strengthening government. Finally, the writer points out that it was Thomas Jefferson, of course, who penned the opening of the Declaration of Independence.

From the Paper
"Hamilton felt there were sound reasons for strengthening government. In 1791, the Congress authorized an excise tax on distilled whiskey. To westerners, this was an insult. With only crude roads through much of the country beyond the bare seaboard, the westerners had no efficient way of moving grain. Grain distilled into whiskey was far more compact and marketable. Further, Hamilton's financial policies had so restricted currency that in the western territories nation that there was essentially no conventional currency. Whiskey became the accepted medium of exchange, offered and accepted in exchange for other goods. As a result, a tax on this amounted to an attack on their prosperity."

Abstract
This study examines racial/ethnic issues in relation to achievement motivation and perceptions of achievement motivation in groups of South African university students. The study asks if achievement motivation is significantly related to differences in students' racial/ethnic background. It also questions whether perceptions of other racial/ethnic groups' levels of achievement motivation are significantly related to differences in students' racial/ethnic background. It then asks if achievement motivation is significantly related to differences in where students attend school (Fort Hare or Western Cape) and whether perceptions of other racial/ethnic groups' levels of achievement motivation significantly related to differences in where students attend school (Fort Hare or Western Cape).

From the Paper
"The background of this study examination of achievement motivation as it relates to ethnic differences in groups of South African college students is really the history of South Africa and its ethnic diversity, tensions, and conflict. South Africa, located at the southern tip continent of Africa, has a population of 45.1 million people. It is slightly less than twice the size of Texas and boasts of high sweeping plateaus, towering mountains, deep valleys and beautiful beaches lining its long, fertile coast. Ethnically and racially diverse, South Africa is about 75.2 percent black, 8.6 percent Colored (mixed-race), 13.6 percent white, and 2.6 percent Indian. Most whites, coloreds and blacks (about 60 percent of each group) are Christians. However, there is a Hindu minority to which about 60 percent of the Indians belong; of the remaining groups, most are Muslims."

Abstract
In this paper, these are the various similar and differing views of the nature of the soul, which provide insight into the views of Plato, Aristotle, and the New Testament Bible on immortality and the connection of the soul to physical properties. Aristotle does agree with the soul as being an immortal part of the human condition, but he does not agree with the premise that it is separate from the body, as does Plato and the Bible. In this construct, the exclusivity of the highest good or attainment of wisdom can only be attained through a disavowal of the body in Plato's understanding of the soul.

Abstract
The following paper will look at the differing perceptions of gender in Paradise Lost and in Aphra Behn's, Oroonoko. Specifically, the paper will argue that Milton's text portrays women as weak-willed beings (for the most part) who are credulous and who should remain loyally fastened to their husbands' sides. By comparison, Aphra Behn - through the character of Imoionda - shows women (at least one woman) as being thoughtful, defiant, able to manipulate others (in Imoionda's case, it is the elderly king), and assertive when it comes to her own sexuality (she knows the man she wishes to be with, in other words). Ultimately, it may be argued that Milton presents a very Christian and patriarchal view of women while Aphra Behn provides a very feminine - and feminist - depiction of the so-called "fairer sex".

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to introduce, discuss, and analyze the differences in four social classes: lower, working, middle, and upper, based on income, race, sex, and education and to show how these clear divisions in society lead to stereotypes, social expectations and limitations.

From the paper:

"Differences in each of the four classes are marked when income is the factor differentiating them. 11.3 per cent of Americans live in poverty, and can be considered part of the lower and working classes. In the U.S. today, 16 percent of the population falls into the "lower" class. Thirty-eight per cent fall into the "working," or "blue-collar" class. Forty-four per cent fall into the "middle" and "upper middle" class, and 2 per cent fall into the "upper" class. The lower and often working classes are often characterized as less educated. They tend to live in urban areas, and do not own their own homes. The middle and upper classes tend to own their own homes, often are two-career couples by choice, and usually live in less urban and more rural areas or suburbs of larger cities. They are usually better educated than the lower and working classes, often with advanced college degrees."

Abstract
This paper compares and contrasts two famous works dealing with the Holocaust, the first being "The War Against the Jews" by Lucy S. Dawidowicz with "The Destruction of the European Jews" by Raul Hilberg. According to the paper, historians viewing the same material can come to different conclusions, as reflected in these works. Additionally, they may also apply slightly different methods to their analysis and will often write very differently about the same subject based on their point of view, particular data they may have developed, or the aspect of the larger story that they choose to feature.

"Historians viewing the same material can come to different conclusions. They may also apply slightly different methods to their analysis and will often write very differently about the same subject based on their point of view, particular data they may have developed, or the aspect of the larger story that they choose to feature. Some of these differences can be seen in two analyses of the history of European Jews, The War Against the Jews by Lucy S. Dawidowicz and The Destruction of the European Jews by Raul Hilberg. Dawidowicz and Hilberg both cover the war against the Jews from 1933 through 1945, the war undertaken by the Nazis that produced the Holocaust..."

Abstract
This paper is about the Nat Turner's slave rebellion, known as the only successful such revolution. It deals extensively with William Styron's novel, "Confessions of Nat Turner," comparing it to the primary source written by Thomas Gray, of the same name. It also discusses numerous newspaper accounts of the event, analyzing the evolving story, and the different biases in reporting. The paper examines critiques of Styron's novel, "Ten Black Writers respond...", and Styron's defenses. Finally, the paper compares Turner's role as a villain to that of modern-day "villains."

From the Paper
"The Merriam Webster Collegiate Dictionary defines the word history as a branch of knowledge that records and explains past events . It is often in this explanation that historians will differ. When all presented with similar primary sources, each must chose their own way to understand and explain the unrecorded reasons behind certain actions. Occasionally these explanations will be based on one s own biases or agendas. Often primary sources themselves, though externally objective, may attempt to influence their readers toward a specific point of view. Similar disputes frequently recur over time, when similar historical situations occur. How one understands Nat Turner and his role in the Southampton slave revolt occurring in 1831, given its connections to such sensitive topics as race and religion, may largely be based on such predispositions. Additionally, cases like that of Turner seem to take place during each generation, leading to similar recurring disputes."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that in the case of sexually transmitted diseases, which includes AIDS, the historical media representation of behavior, causal concerns has been relatively poor, as the initial limitations of who and why people are infected play a part in media coverage as well as lack there of. The writer points out that in the case of the HIV virus, or the virus that causes AIDS the media takes center stage in creating frenzy as well as reducing public concern over the matter as a result of it being a behavior based infection, and what many consider illicit behavior at that. The writer maintains that creating a dialogue where real issues, such as what it means to be gay, what it means to be from the third world, or the first world for that matter and what STDs really are, must replace preconceived notions about the right and wrong of human behavior and even existence. The writer concludes that the human animal is a victim of a naturally occurring epidemic that must be controlled and hopefully someday eradicated, without prejudice.

From the Paper
"The readership and follower-ship of such alternative resources was frequently limited to those who had been personally affected by the disease, until such media grew a voice strong enough to make others understand that they needed to demand from the popular press a realistic representation of the disease and its far reaching potential as a scourge of devastation, not unlike many other epidemics of the past.
"The idea that because a disease is an STD it deserves less attention, was so pervasive that the perception of STDs in general was in need of change, as STDs, had up to this point been seen as annoying but hardly deadly, and created a causal situation, even when the victims where unaware of their own infection and unknown ability to spread the disease. STDs were given little press, and even less public information was developed and accessible, outside health clinics that had been established in a feminist demand for equality in health care."

Abstract
This essay is a brief study of two philosophies on abortion, and the women in the communities that it affects. First, the paper examines how the issue of abortion is politicized by conservatives and liberals. Then it gives a literature review of studies that claim to present the public's view on this issue. Various tables are included in the paper to support the research studies. The paper concludes that today abortion legislation today supports the views of constituents, who are in favor of restricting access to this procedure.

Literature Review
The Data

From the Paper
"Norrander and Wilcox concluded that a "plurality" of Americans favor abortion by individual case elements (707). In other words, if there were a case of medical complication that would result in the death of the mother, the general public might be divided along the lines of the abortion debate in ways that they are not divided on the general topic of abortion. When the element of health risk to the mother exists, it could results in the data to change from those results reported generally."
