I am currently writing a paper, and was wondering if you could share you thoughts. In your view, what is Liberalism, nationalism,Marxism-Leninism?

What's the paper for? Let me know if you need help finding books.

To elaborate a little on my post, the paper is mainly being written as a school project.

I guessed that it was a school project--what's the scope of the assignment? (i.e. what subject, how long is the paper, what are you studying, what sources are you using in your paper, etc.) How are the three elements you named related?

Hi Rachel! ( good ol' sis, friend, pal...)

Another response to your post. Sorry, I guess I should be a little less vague. The subject is Social Studies.

The scope, although I can get by with just a brief 3 page essay on this one, I would like to go more in-depth if I can.

You had asked-- How are the three ( i.e. nationalism, Liberalism, Marxism-Leninism) related? Well, according to my school assignment they are related, as worldviews that are alternatives to Christian opinion. This is merely what my textbook says, and sometimes (as you know) textbooks can be faulty. But I at least agree with what they say in part.

I will be reading from additional sources. I am really only in the starting process of researching, so any recommendations of articles would be helpful. I know that you are a great deal more knowledgeable about certian things than I, this is likely one of those areas.

So, tell me your thoughts, as you feel you have time to bestow them, and I will be grateful.
Sincerely,
Your Brilliant, (sometimes excessively goofy),
Sister,
Emily
