Society needed to cooperate to provide a sense of ?community? for all members of society, regardless of social class. Economic planning is successful and must be implemented by governments. The poor need to be helped! Poverty breeds poverty Private property should be regulated or should be abolished.

LESSONS IN LEADERSHIP APPLYING NELSON MANDELA?S LESSONS IN LEADERSHIP PART 1: NELSON MANDELA?S EIGHT LESSONS OF LEADERSHIP 1. Courage is not the absence of fear ? it's inspiring others to move beyond it Nelson Mandela was often afraid during his time underground, during the Rivonia trial that led to his imprisonment, during his time on Robben Island. "I can't pretend that I'm brave and that I can beat the whole world." But as a leader, you cannot let people know. "You must put up a front." And that's precisely what he learned to do: pretend and, through the act of appearing fearless, inspire others. He knew that he was a model for others, and that gave him the strength to triumph over his own fear. 2. Lead from the front ? but don't leave your base behind

DBQ 13 During the Gilded Age, the 30 year time period after the Civil War, America as a country began to shift in ways of life and political beliefs. The industrial revolution began with an increase in railroads, telegraph, steel, oil, and more. As a shift from the previous agricultural based time period before the civil war to manufacturing, farmers are feeling the direct impact of this economic shift. During this time, the economic disputes, political imbalances, and social shifts explains why farmers were discontent with the nations politics. As a result, the number of farmers in the US declined, the Farmers Alliance was created, and a new third party known as the Populist party arose.
