1. Survival of the fittest refers to a theory of evolution by Charles Darwin. According to this theory, the most healthy or well adapted organisms have higher reproductive success in order to pass on their genes. On the other hand, weaker and less well adapted organisms have less reproductive success and as result are likely to become extinct. According to this theory, wealth is in the hands of few due to economic competition in society. Wealth ends up being in the hands of those who successfully grow their own wealth in the first place.

2. Andrew Carnegie is best known worldwide as a big steel tycoon in the 20th Century. His theory called 'The Gospel of Wealth' is highly popular. According to Carnegie, wealthy individuals should not: pass on their fortune to their children and should not hoard their wealth and finally give it up at the time of their death.

3. According to Carnegie, a rich person should be selfless and generous with his wealth and fortune and use it to better the life of his own community. Rather than hoarding  money or spending it solely on family members, wealthy people should spend their wealth in a philanthropic way in order to improve the lifestyle of communities.

What types of reform did the Pahlavis introduce ? How did Iranian citizens respond ?
anyanavicka [17]
The first Shah of the Pahlavis Dynasty, Reza Shah came to power by means of a coup in 1921 and was able to secure power over the political and government system within a few years. He did so by establishing social structure and order, eliminating any threats to his power through rebellion, and having himself named Shah in 1925. Reza Shah wanted to implement sweeping reform programs including projects meant to industrialize Iran and improve access to public education and healthcare. While these programs were meant to help the Iranian people, some reacted harshly to his authoritarian style authroitarian style of rule and many religious and educated peoples spoke out against the ruler. 

Reza Shah was eventaully displaced from power, placed into exile by the British and succeeded by his son, Mohammad Reza Shah. Like his father, the second Pahlavi ruler supported reform programs meant to develop Iran's economy and support it's people. However, these attempts were meant with reservations by many people who faced more economic hardship and disparity rather than oppporutnity. This resentment led many to support revolutionary ideas and movements, which eventually saw the collapse of the Shah's government in 1978 and 1979.
