Sweden's Economy
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page paper discussing the economy of Sweden. Sweden's welfare state is legendary. The government provides support to individuals in virtually every aspect of their lives, yet without venturing so far into socialism that individuals are unable to determine and follow their own paths. The cost of free university education; health care for only a nominal fee; and 15 months maternity leave at 80 percent of salary is the highest personal and corporate tax rates in the world. Though tax rates of between 50 and 60 percent would be crushing in other nations and stall economies, they have worked quite well in Sweden in the past. There is concern that the situation can continue, but of course the Swedish government is aware of the challenges before it. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The Crash of 1929, the Great Depression and its Effect on the Presidency
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing how the wrenching events of 1929 and the
beginning of the Great Depression ultimately affected the power of the presidency. The
full effect of the crash and depression were not yet evident during Hoover's administration
but had become quite clear by the time FDR took office in 1932. Though FDR instituted
many of the initiatives that had originated with Hoover, the desperation in which the
economy found itself lent greater credence to presidential decree. Hoover was limited to
existing channels; FDR was able to take direct control on the basis of national emergency.
His embracing of that route made the option permanently available for all those who
would follow. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

The Development and History of Capitalism
[ send me this paper ]

discusses how capitalism has evolved in such a way that many
people perceive it to be the “natural” order of human

studied in terms of its changing socio-historical contexts and
understand its ideas and techniques as products and producers of
history. This paper looks at the historical events and cultural
changes that took place between the 1400s to 1930 and how
capitalist thinking transformed society. Certain negative
aspects of capitalism are also discussed. Bibliography lists 6
