4. he Mandate of Heaven is based on four leading ideas:
The right to rule is granted by Heaven.
There can be only one legitimate ruler.
The right to rule is based on the virtue of the ruler and his good
performance as a steward for Heaven.
The right to rule may be passed down from father to son, but only
on the conditions established above. Once the Mandate is lost, the
will of Heaven towards a successor will only be known by the
working out of the imponderable force of events in human history.
5. t asserts that a monarch is subject to no earthly
authority, deriving his right to rule directly from the

Emirati member state of Ajman.
The Moselle River, and its tributaries the Sauer and the Our, comprise
a condominium between Luxembourg and Germany, who share
bridges and at least the tip of one island (near Schengen).

In a federal system of government, sovereignty also refers to
powers which a constituent state or republic possesses
independently of the national government
In a confederation constituent entities retain the right to
withdraw from the national body, but in a federation member
states or republics do not hold that right
16. Different interpretations of state sovereignty in the United States of
America, as it related to the expansion of slavery and Fugitive slave
laws, led to the outbreak of the American Civil War.
Depending on the particular issue, sometimes the North and other
times the South justified their political positions by appealing to
state sovereignty. Fearing that slavery would be threatened by
federal election results, eleven states declared their independence
from the federal Union and formed a new confederation. The United
States government rejected the secessions as rebellion, declaring
that secession from the Union by an individual state was
unconstitutional, as the states were part of an indissolvable
federation.

33. philosophical and theoretical framework of a
scientific school or discipline within which theories,
laws, and generalizations and the experiments
performed in support of them are formulated
efers to the set of practices that define a scientific
discipline at any particular period of time.
34. homas Kuhn defines a scientific paradigm as: "universally
recognized scientific achievements that, for a time, provide
model problems and solutions for a community of
researchers", i.e.,
what is to be observed and scrutinized
the kind of questions that are supposed to be asked and probed for
answers in relation to this subject
how these questions are to be structured
how the results of scientific investigations should be interpreted
how is an experiment to be conducted, and what equipment is available
to conduct the experiment.
35. s early as the 14th Century the

management, realists are less optimistic about the
effectiveness of international law and organization and
about the extent of international cooperation that is
possible
ealists view international relations almost exclusively as a
“struggle for power” among competing nation-states
States, like human beings, have an innate desire to dominate
others
38. he ultimate goal of all countries is security in a hostile,
anarchic environment
ealist policies are determined by power calculations in
pursuit of national security
Countries satisfied with their situation tend to pursue the status
quo
Countries that are dissatisfied tend to be expansionist
Alliances are made and broken based on the requirements of
“realpolitik”
39. ealists focus on military strategy, the elements of
national power, and the nature of national interests
more so than international law and organization
rom WWII they learned that the way to prevent future

53. s an economic and sociopolitical worldview and method
of socioeconomic inquiry centered upon a materialist
interpretation of history, a dialectical view of social
change, and an analysis–critique of the development of

n the early-to-mid 19th century, the intellectual
development of Marxism was pioneered by two German
philosophers, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels.
54. s an ideology, Marxism encompasses an economic
theory, a sociological theory, and a revolutionary view
of social change
55. arx believed that a truly utopian society must be
classless and stateless.
arx's main idea was simple:
Free the lower class from poverty and give the poor a fighting
chance.
In order to liberate the lower class, Marx believed that the
government would have to control all means of production so
that no one could outdo anyone else by making more money.
56. arx described three necessary phases toward achieving his idea of utopia.
hase 1: A revolution must take place in order to overthrow the existing
government. Marx emphasized the need for total destruction of the existing
system in order to move on to Phase 2.
hase 2: A dictator or elite leader (or leaders) must gain absolute control over
the proletariat. During this phase, the new government exerts absolute control
over the common citizen's personal choices -- including his or her education,
religion, employment and even marriage. Collectivization of property and
wealth must also take place.
57. hase 3: Achievement of utopia. This phase has never been
attained because it requires that all non-communists be
destroyed in order for the Communist Party to achieve
supreme equality. In a Marxist utopia, everyone would
happily share property and wealth, free from the
restrictions that class-based systems require. The
government would control all means of production so
that the one-class system would remain constant, with no
possibility of any middle class citizens rising back to the
top.

discussed in the writings of Plato, Aristotle, St. Augustine,
Immanuel Kant, Søren Kierkegaard, Karl Marx, Martin
Heidegger, Hannah Arendt, Paulo Freire, and many others
60. efers to the process of putting theoretical knowledge
into practice, the strategic and organizational usage of
the word emphasizes the need for a constant cycle of
conceptualizing the meanings of what can be learned
from experience in order to reframe strategic and
operational models.
