From the Paper "The Big Three"--Summit Conferences of 1943-61
This research discusses the significant conferences among the Big Three, from the one in Teheran, Iran in November 1943 to the June 1961 Summit Meeting in Vienna. During World War II, both the Americans and British allied successfully with the Soviets to conquer and permanently break up the Fascist-Nazi regime of Hitler's Germany. These three nations contributed lives, weapons, money and time, to the preservation of a stable, prosperous, peaceful Europe. The Soviet term "peaceful coexistence" explains the feelings of the Big Three: They all sought peace and prosperity. The big three played a major role not only in defeating Hitler's armies but also in the unconditional surrender and the difficult reconstruction process of Germany."

From the Paper "Declines normally take place due to superior products having come into the market, or it may be just due to bad communication. If these aspects are studied they may provide new insights as to the methods of improving the situation of the product. The third important thing is to know the competitors well enough, along with their own, individual strengths and weaknesses. This will sometimes help in the discovery of certain opportunities in the market that could be fulfilled by the product that the product under review could fulfill. The next natural step is the knowledge of the situation in the market, and this is in terms of the activities of the competitors. This knowledge helps in the differentiation of the product from the others in the market. Even if there is a direct competition with a product, this may help."

From the Paper "These discussions should finally determine the expected financial outcome for the conference. The decision may be taken that the conference will break even or produce a marginal positive income. Once that decision is taken, then the steps must be taken to reach the targeted goal. Based on these decisions, it is also possible to decide the ethicality of certain procedures like seeking of funds from the local community or from the local businesses."

Anglophobia in WWII, 2005. A detailed analysis of the effect of anglophobia upon the delegates at the Casablanca Conference in 1943. 4,100 words (approx. 16.4 pages), 13 sources, MLA, $ 110.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract In World War II, the alliance of Great Britain and the United States was hindered by Anglophobia. This paper describes the existence of Anglophobia in World War II during the war and specifically the Casablanca conference. Anglophobia represented a widespread prejudice prior to and during World War II. The paper showss that during the Casablanca conference, the prominence of Anglophobia hindered the abilities of the conferees in reaching a decision on the allied objectives for 1943. Yet, after the success of the Casablanca conference and the successful collaboration between the allies during the war, Anglophobia faded away after the war and doesn't exist in its traditional fashion today. The Anglophobia embedded in the allies produced tensions, throughout the Casablanca conference and World War II, which prevailed amidst the common bond between the United States and Great Britain and was detrimental to the success of the alliance.
From the Paper "American columnist Jack Nock viewed Churchill's support of pro-British propaganda being introduced in the United States as "clear proof that we are officially regarded as a nation of manageable half-wits." Following the attack on Pearl Harbor, Churchill was asked if he planned to continue the same cautious policy towards the Americans, to which he responded, "Oh! That is the way we talked to her while we were wooing her; now that she in the harem, we talk to her quite differently!" This statement reveals the political nature behind the military alliances that existed and how the leaders of the United States and Great Britain, although suffering from their own personal biases, were able to work together to ensure the completion of the task."

Scramble for Africa and the Berlin Conference, 2004. An examination of the history of the colonization of Africa in the late 1800s and the consequential Berlin Conference in 1884. 1,024 words (approx. 4.1 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 36.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper briefly discusses the period of history known as the 'scramble for Africa' when European countries tried to colonize as much of Africa as possible in the late 1800s until the start of WWI. It looks at the political, social, and nationalistic reasons for this hype and, in turn, discusses the resulting need for the Berlin Conference in 1884-1885. It explains how this conference was necessary to make international 'rules' about colonization.
From the Paper "The competition among the European nations to colonize Africa led to the Berlin Conference in 1884-1885. This was necessary because of the intense amount of treaty-making and colony-building by the competing European nations, and it became a three-month bargaining session among the 14 attending nations regarding who would gain control over what parts of Africa, without regard for the cultural boundaries already in place. The nations attending were Germany, Austria-Hungary, Belgium, Denmark, France, Great Britain, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Sweden and Norway, Turkey and the United States. (Wikipedia) The main purposes of the conference became assuring nations access to major trade routes, suppressing the internal slave trade in Africa, banning the importation of firearms into Africa, and discussion of the occupation of territories. ?The result of this conference was a treaty called the Treaty of Berlin. By 1900, almost 90% of Africa was under European control.? (Bergstrom)

Abstract This paper illustrates the many flaws that were involved in the 1992 Earth Summit in Brazil. The paper argues that, although the summit started with good intentions, it only stood to perpetuate globalization and allow transnational corporations to run roughshod over indigenous peoples.
From the Paper "The Earth Summit of 1992 appeared to be a new beginning for the environmental movement. Many world leaders gathered in Rio de Janeiro to discuss the various effects of the human race on this planet and to offer solutions to pressing problems such as global warming, biodiversity, and poverty. The world has come a long way from that point; many blocks of sustainable development have come into being and various ideologies have developed, but few have become relevant to creating sustainability everywhere."

Although the gathering failed to effectively address disarmament the adoption of other important agreements and conventions paved the way for collective efforts to follow."

Strategic Advantages of Westin Peachtree Plaza Hotel: A Critical Review
From the Paper "WPPA has the best overall physical capacity for the conference. It has the largest available square footage, and was available on the date of the conference. Similarly, there are adequate accommodations for guests that will need to stay overnight, and or other individuals who prefer to stay at the hotel for the duration of the conference. The facilities are exquisite and offer a particular ambiance that is relevant to the overall Coca Cola image. The conference room at WPPA is also connected to the Hotel (in some cases, like the Sheraton, the executive suites were across the street); the hotel is close to the airport and the Coca Cola headquarter offices, so there are no access issues that are overwhelming or bothersome."

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper charters the political career of ?Colonel? Edward Mandell House and in particular his time as the trusted advisor to Woodrow Wilson. It looks at how House played an important role in the peace process at the end of World War I and how he was the American representative for the surrender of Germany, before arriving at the Paris peace conference as Wilson?s personal representative. It discusses how he tried to secure a future for Germany with concessions made to the French outside of the limits of power and guidelines that he had been given to him by Wilson thus compromising Wilson's position.
From the Paper "Although Wilson and House were close, House remained an accomplished and ambitious political operator. He had been observing Wilson, and had concluded that Wilson?s methods of doing things was not quick enough or ultimately going to solve any problems. He was also very passionate about the league of nations, and felt that Germany should not be treated to harshly, he said that ?if the conditions we impose upon Germany are unjust, it will simply mean the breeding of another war?. As house began to listen to all sides of the argument over the Rhineland. He took onboard all sides of the argument, and was eventually able to come up with a solution that would be acceptable to all sides, and eventually decided to give permission for the French to create a Rhenish republic, at least until they were able to rebuild militarily. House tried his best to address this issue, by suggesting the now infamous ?demilitarisation of the Rhineland?, which was to happen in three stages."

Abstract This paper reports on the Text Retrieval Conference (TREC) Genomics Track and recent research on databases and accessing databases on genome information, which intends to improve information retrieval in the area of genomics by creating test collections that will allow researchers to improve and better understand failures of their systems, and which shows several types of research in the most recent papers on the subject.
From the Paper "Genomics research on a large scale can be traced to and has been much bolstered by the Human Genome Program supported by the Department of Energy and other government agencies starting in 1986, with the purpose of mapping the complete DNA sequence of the human genome. Subsequent research addresses specific purposes for different parts of the human genome, ways in which genetic data can be used to fight and prevent disease, traits associated with different genomic sequences, ways of altering genetic information, and much more related to the basic data from the Human Genome Project."

The Potsdam Conference and the Cold War, 2005. Describes the political relations between the United States and the Soviet Union after World War II and the Potsdam Conference. 1,097 words (approx. 4.4 pages), 3 sources, MLA, $ 38.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines the evolution of the political relationship between the U.S. and the Soviet Union after WWII. The paper explains how both countries viewed the other country's political objective and how these perspectives ultimately shaped all other international relations in the period from the Potsdam Conference until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989.
From the Paper "Though the United States and the Soviet Union emerged from World War II as putative allies and co-victors in the struggle against Nazi Germany, the reality of the period following World War II is that the United States and the Soviet Union were not allies in any meaningful sense. Whereas the United States positioned itself as supportive of a return to national autonomy in all of Europe, Arnold A. Offner has argued that the Soviets saw a defeated Europe as a logical locus for the extension of Soviet interests and hegemony."
