    Modernity: Is It a Good Thing or Bad Thing?

    Modernity: Is It A Good or Bad Thing? There has been an excessive amount of contentions recently on whether or not the average ‘modern life' is declining or advancing.

Many mislead the decline in modernity with just the evolution of the different aspects of modern

  • Paternalism in the Modern Country

    Paternalism in the Modern Country

    Introduction To limit human freedom in a liberal democracy seems incongruous. Liberty denotes the freedom of action, which seems incompatible with paternalism, which is the "interference of a state or an individual with another person, against their will, and justified by a claim that the person interfered with will be better off or protected from harm." The key words in this definition, "interference... against their will", illustrate the fact that people simply dislike being told what to do, which leads them to describe their country as a ‘nanny state'. Liberal views which build on this
