Fascism/Could It Happen in the US?
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page research paper that examines the nature of fascism and whether it could occur in the US. Since the 1930s and 40s, historical scholarship has wrestled with the problem of precisely how to define fascism, in both its Italian and German forms, and how to differentiate these forms from other totalitarian regimes, such as Stalinism. The lurking question behind all of such scholarship is whether or not fascism could emerge again on the world political stage. Looking at the common factors shared by the regimes of Hitler and Mussolini, as well as the features that they both share with Stalinism. There appears to be common ground in all of these authoritarian regimes that appeals to something basic in Western character and which, therefore, constitutes a danger to the concepts of democratic governance.

Gays/Lesbian Perception Within Minority Groups And Jewish Stereotypes Circa World War II
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Gay and lesbian members of minority groups receive the same level of disdain as they do from those outside their subpopulation. Indeed, one would expect gays and lesbians to be supported within their particular minority community, however, just because someone is Latino, black or Asian does not automatically mean he or she will embrace anymore social tolerance than anyone else. The ways in which Jews were stereotyped by the German people during the period before World War II are well documented by illustrating how at the time of World War I, totalitarianism was taking a stronghold upon Europe institutions, while the Great Depression proved to threaten the very character and destiny of Western civilization.
