Anti-Conservative Actions In Super Man Earth

As liberalism ideology evolved and championed by the economic leaders, it pose a threat to the existing social settings such as the presence of the nobility, and the church. The attempt to defend existing social arrangement is what brought about conservatism. Conservatives stood against the ideas of liberals in a rational for maintaining existing traditional political structures and the centralization of power. They stood against transferring political responsibility to the common people under the disguise of equality (Shively, 2014).

Throughout the world there are many diverse political cultures. A political culture is the attitudes, beliefs or practices among a group of likeminded individuals. (Giardino pg. 27) There are different categories that embrace a political culture like an Individualistic, traditionalistic and moralistic. An individualistic culture is one that prefers less government involvement. The traditionalists’ culture maintains government as the social and economic hierarchy and does not like change. The moralistic culture favors public good and it revolves around social issues. In shaping a political culture demographics such as population size, growth, distribution and diversity are essential to determine how a state is in any of the three categories. Society is strongly affected by decisions of who, what and when does an individual receive any types of goods or services. Government is the structure, buildings and institutions that are held within politics.

This means that essentially they crave social order ahead of liberty. This way of prioritising social order over liberty is a view also taken by Thomas Hobbes in his work Leviathan, in which he talks of the sacrifice of but a few rights for the assurance of protection from the government. In this way, human imperfection can be seen to link to the other conservative concepts of Hierarchy and Authority – because of the fact that humans are inherently imperfect, they need a structured hierarchy to protect them and keep them in line. Conservatives, in this way believe in strong punishment as it can act as a deterrent to others doing the same crime. A structured hierarchy, protecting citizens and individuals lower down the chain link to the conservative theory of the ‘noblesse oblige’ which is where the rich or those higher up have a social obligation to help the less well off. Similarly Conservatives also believe that some are natural leaders, like those in positions of power, and some are inferior as a result of their imperfect qualities and are therefore not worthy of being a leader.

(Davies, 1997) Conservatives are mostly for preserving the society instead of a takeover, which emphasizes stability.(McLean and McMillan, 2009) Viscourt Hailsham a former chairman of the British Conservative Party described conservatism. "Conservatism is not so much a philosophy as an attitude, a constant force, performing a timeless function in the development of a free society, and corresponding to a deep and permanent requirement of human nature itself."(Hailsham, 1959)

He fears that she would, as Boas states, feel “intense displeasure ” (607) were she to know his true identity. For Clark Kent, truly, “the teachings of earlier childhood remain…the truth which is never doubted (Boas 609). Ultimately, his love for Lois Lane forces Superman/Clark Kent to choose which life to live. Deciding to live life as a mortal with Lois Lane, he must give up his powers. Unknown to the pair, at the same time a trio of evil Kryptonians, all possessing the same powers as Superman, have begun to enslave all of mankind. Upon hearing this, the powerless Clark Kent decides that he must set aside his own feelings, and even the feelings of Lois Lane, in order to act for the benefit of the majority. He acts against the desires of Clark Kent, and therefore the culture of his Earth upbringing, and instead acts according to the responsibilities of a hero, therefore embracing the culture of his Kryptonian parents. Clark Kent undergoes a rebirth as he succeeds in regaining his powers, becoming Superman once again. Empowered with the strength and determination to defeat his opponents, Superman conquers the evil Kryptonians and returns peace to the world

Traditional conservatives adopt an organic view of society. This implies that society works like a living thing, an organism, which is sustained by a fragile set of relationships between and amongst its parts. The whole is therefore more than just its individual parts. This implies that the individual cannot be separated from society, but is part of the social groups that nurture him or her, reflecting the dependent and security-seeking tendencies within human nature. Organic societies are fashioned ultimately by natural necessity, and therefore cannot be ‘improved’ by reform or revolution. Indeed, reform or revolution is likely to destroy the

They impose rules that follow the long standing ideals of the society. However, these rules may not be beneficial for all of the people. For example, Equality 7-2521 clarifies that it “is a great sin, to be born with a head which is too quick” (Rand 21). This means that it is not allowed for someone to be more intelligent than someone else. In a collectivist society, all people are equal and no one is superior to the others.

Classical liberalism allow an individual to use primary social value of liberty in the political culture that extent until liberties of the others disturbed. Classical liberal ideas often form the basis for opposition to the use of government to attain social and personal objectives. They stress reliance on private the free market to determine the best outcomes rather than the private initiatives [1].

Most of the values attached to Conservative Ideology such as gender roles, religious beliefs, racial segregation, non-acceptance of same sex marriage, are all things that had to be challenged politically in order to become acceptable. I try to picture myself in the shoes of many victims to the conservative system like all the women who fought for their rights to vote and all I can think about is how they had to struggle to achieve their goal because the system was not willing to change. This is happening now with same sex marriage where people literally have fought for that right and still have that right threatened to be taken away from them.

Both liberal and conservative perspectives believe in the idea that management of capital, as well as the economic system, should be handled by a group of leaders in the public and private world. This is a shared belief between these two

Conservatism is a set of principles that focus on traditional values and moderation. It was a political idea that arose out of international and domestic conflicts that the U.S went through in the 1970s. However, it did not start to fully become prominent until the 1980s with the election of Ronald Reagan. The combination of stagflation, a sequence of failures overseas, and the aftermath of Richard Nixon’s presidency; all led to a rise in “a widespread sense of anxiety among Americans and offered conservatives new political opportunities” (Foner, Give Me Liberty, 1041).

He wanted his son to have a normal life, despite who he really was. At one point he mentioned Clark becoming a farmer, as the Kent family had been doing for generations. It is likely he wanted this because he was aware of the type of life his son would have otherwise. As Superman, Clark is essentially devoted to the world and having to make sacrifices. He can never truly put his desires or needs first.

Superheroes, be it Superman or Captain America, were traditionally regarded as benevolent saviours imbrued with a strong, virtuous morality. In the 1980s, however, this black-and-white view was revolutionised by grittier comics such as Batman: The Dark Knight Returns by Frank Miller, Klaus Janson and Lynn Varley. Written and set during the Cold War, the graphic novel presented a darker, more realistic approach to the superhero, reflecting the political realities of the time. It is often credited with redefining the superhero and creating the prototype for the broody and morally grey Batman we know today. This can be attributed to the moral ambiguity and complexity that marks the novel. Miller creates a questionable, morally ambiguous

This essay will assess the relationship between liberalism and conservatism by exploring the differences in ideological beliefs of these two ideologies. Ideology can be defined as “set of interrelated and more or less coherent ideas” that constitutes of both “descriptive and normative element” on how a society works (Heywood, 2007, pp. 6-7). One of the most popular ideology in contemporary politics is liberalism which accord individual liberty and free market as its primary priority. On the other hand, conservatism is generally known for advocating tradition, societal state and authority. Firstly, we will look at theories developed by liberalism and conservatism on creation of state. It would then be followed by liberalism’s notion of individuality and individual liberty versus conservatism’s emphasis on individual imperfectionism and need for society. Thereafter, we will observe liberalism and conservatism as political ideology and how it has evolved over time. The essay will be summed up by a conclusion in the end. The terms, liberalism and conservatism mentioned in this essay are intended to be synonymous to their traditional or classical thoughts and beliefs. Every argument presented in this essay are intended to support the claim that liberalism and conservatism are not compatible ideologies. By compatible, I meant being consistent without any disagreements.

2. Classical liberalism says that the state should only take over an institution to ensure that citizens can freely benefit from that particular institution’s services. Classical liberalism does not require the thorough enforcing of law and order to reach economic progress and equality.
