How to Write a Character Analysis First, you need to choose, which character you're going to analyze. I suggest you choose a character, who changes. If you have to write about Finding Nemo, (The Walt Disney story), then you might be tempted to choose Nemo, because, after all, the title has his name in it- he must be the main character. But, really, the character, who changes the most and who really goes on a journey, is the Father- Marlin, so he's the character best suited for a character analysis.  So, number one- choose a character, who changes! All right, now you've chosen which character to analyze, you're going to have to think of inferences. Let me give you an example of what I mean by that. Here's some…here's an inference down here, but let me start with this-“FACT: Marlin hovers”. We know (if you've watched this film) that Marlin is the dad and he hovers over his son and doesn't want to let him be independent and try new things or t...

The Role of First Lady of the US The role of the first lady in the American political system is one with a long and evolving history. Through history, the first lady has been seen mostly as the symbolic figure entrusted with welcoming people to the White House. The first lady’s first and paramount duty has been to welcome diplomats or guests to the White House and ensure they are comfortable and well looked after. With time, however, many first ladies have taken on much more substantial duties that have developed and supplemented the current role of the first lady. This paper will examine the historical evolution of the first lady and what the current role of the first lady is understood as today.  Perhaps the most thorough documentation of the first ladies’ evolving duties and roles can be found in the book: First Ladies and the Fourth Estate by Lisa Burns (Burns, 2008). The book cites four distinct phases that the author feels the first lady has passed through. The fir...

The Effects of the Industrial Revolution on Social Class  Before the end of the 17th century, most economies in the world practiced handiwork production processes. However, this changed with the onset of the next century; a period during which agriculture and other sectors of economy integrated the use of mechanized means of primary and secondary production. In different parts of the world and at home, Britain gained popularity as the first country to incorporate new forms of production. Most countries learned the success of the mechanization idea, and towards the middle of the 18th century, many nations had adopted the use of the technique. Although the industrial revolution had a significant impact on the global economies, its introduction led to adverse ramifications on some aspects of the social class. Thus, this paper will discuss the revolution’s effect on social class. In essence, the industrial revolution increased the size of the wealthy class. The occurrence o...

  Performance-Based Pay: Should the Minimum Wage be abolished?  Over time, economists have been researching on the necessity and effects of the minimum wage on peoples’ lives. Itis the amount of compensation imposed by the federal government since 1938 below which laborers should not sell their services and this amount has increased with time. Its primary aim is to tackle poverty and improve standards of living by ensuring every worker enjoys a minimum level of income (Mark, 2012). However, some policymakers state that this policy is inefficient since it negatively affects more people than it benefits (Robert, 1974). This paper focuses on the positive and negative effects of the minimum wage and whether the government should abolish it.  Although the minimum wage is a way of eradicating poverty, it has adverse effects on the very low-income workers, and policymakers intend to help. According to neoclassical economics, employers demand less labor as its pri...
