Can the Mormon era in territorial Utah fit into Turners thesis of how the frontier operated in the furtherance of American liberty and individuality?

Frederick Jackson Turner does not specifically mention the Mormon Church or the Reynolds case in his famous essay on the role of the frontier in American history. In a short essay of 300 words, place the Reynolds decision and Professor Taysoms analysis of it in the overall context of Turners thesis. In other words, can the Mormon era in territorial Utah fit into Turners thesis of how the frontier operated in the furtherance of American liberty and individuality?

Revolution

This critical essay is like an essay exam. It consists of two separate essays worth 60% and 40% respectively. Please answer both in detail.

1. (60%) What makes a country ripe for Communist Revolution? Compare and contrast the causes that led to the Chinese and Russian Revolutions and discuss the extent to which they were Marxist or Communist Revolutions; that is, in what sense did they or did they not actually embrace or respond to the ideas of Marx, Lenin, and Mao?

2. (40%) Referring to the required reading, including Wild Swans by Chang, and the film clip, discuss what is meant by a “cultural revolution”.  Evaluate the goals, successes, and failures of the Chinese Cultural Revolution.Bring in as much factual evidence as possible. Quote often from the texts to substantiate your assertions. Remember to include a thesis sentence in your first paragraph,  and a conclusion that doesn’t simply re-state what you have already said.

You will need to provide an analysis of representation of the Russian life and culture in one of the three distinctive genres: photography, literature and film. You are expected to answer the following questions: 1) What was the intention standing behind the creation of these works of art? 2) What kind of issues did the authors want to draw attention to? 3) What kind of images or broader picture did the authors seek to produce and what kind of expressive means did they use to achieve this goal? 4) What kind of reaction was expected on the part of implied audience? 5) Does this genre have any unique tasks, opportunities and specifics as related to other genres of Russian arts and to corresponding genre in other cultures you are familiar with? 6) What kind of cultural stereotypes portrayed and what kind of expressive means used by the authors did strike you, grab your attention or make you see Russian and your own cultures in a different way? 7) How do the issues analyzed in your essays relate to our class readings and discussions?

Essays must be double-spaced, have normal margins and be properly, consistently referenced. See http://www.aaanet.org/publications/style_guide.pdf for an American Anthropological Association (AAA) style citation guide (based on the Chicago Manual of Style).

Any topic (writer’s choice)

Cleaner Production and Green Chemistry

Write some pages paper on the dual topics of “Cleaner Production” and “Green Chemistry.”  Cleaner production is the term used by the United Nations to describe what is sometimes referred to in the US as Environmental Audits.  Research “cleaner production” and then discuss what it is, how is it used, who is using it. Discuss three examples of the application of Cleaner Production techniques and how successful this approach has been.

Similarly, research and discuss Green Chemistry.  What is it, where is it used, why is it being used, and discuss three examples of where green chemistry has been successfully used.  What difference did it make?   

Middle Ages Trade

Prompt:  Agree, disagree, or modify this thesis:

By creating space for heterodoxy (eg alternative belief systems), the Islamic Caliphates of the Middle Ages (600-1200AD) managed to increase trade, benefit from technological innovation, and maintain a strong state.

Format:
4-5 pages double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12 pt font. No title page, just a simple title up top and your name & pg numbers in the header. Citations should be Chicago style, which just means that you use footnotes instead of parenthetical citations. Proofread.

Strong essays will do more than just highlight lecture notes and thinkspace material. They will demonstrate that you have engaged with authors from this unit (Johnson, Laine, Hodgson, Patterns). Do not write about Turkey or Rojava today; focus on the Middle Ages (and you can change the thesis to include E. and W. Rome if you want).
