Abstract
This is a paper on the Atomists of the Greek era and their concept of Atoms and matter.
From the Paper
The notion that atoms make up matter was popular amongst the Greek civilization and through this notion comes the theory of the atomists. Democritus of Abdera (ca. 410 BCE) put forward the atomic hypothesis according to which matter can be divided until a point after which only the atoms remain.

Abstract
This paper will discuss the Charles Taylor's view of liberalism and how this can be seen in reference to the concept of atomistic views on individuals on a social merger. By realizing the different theories on how the individual is represented on a large social scale, we can see how the atomistic approach clashes with Taylor's view on the issue.

Abstract
The mechanistic worldview, on the one hand, depicts nature as atomistic, passive, lifeless, and wholly devoid of purpose. Feminist critics of deep ecology's insistence that an anthropocentric worldview is the root cause of the ecological crisis agree that there are important connections between the oppression of nature and the oppression of women that the anthropocentric emphasis of deep ecology obscures. Nature itself is conceived of as feminine. The powerful metaphor of "Mother Nature" allows one to see women and nature as both nurturing and gentle as well as wild and unpredictable. The irrational forces of nature must be tamed by culture and the emotional nature of women must be constructively directed by the masculine force of rationality.
