Halperin's The Lawless State
[ send me this essay ]
It would seem that 'free society' is one that is bounded by the ideals of community and assured peace through the auspices of government. This 7 page paper argues that Morton Halperin's book, The Lawless State: The Crimes Of U. S. Intelligence Agencies, while being somewhat dated (first published in 1976), is an intelligent indictment against those agencies where 'covert' is another word for 'power' and the SOP (standard operating procedure) is a misuse of that power as well as a flagrant disregard of the Constitutional rights of their 'victims'. No additional sources are listed.

Hamlet and The Odyssey
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper which compares and contrasts Hamlet and The Odyssey. These two classic tales were written in completely different times in history, as well as completely different regions of the world, and as such they are incredibly different in almost all aspects of consideration. Some of the aspects of the tales that are discussed include intent, substance, focus, cultural perspectives, and beliefs. Perhaps the most obvious difference between the two is that Hamlet is a tale of incredible depth and introspection while The Odyssey is primarily a tale of adventure and intrigue.
