Prelude to Revolution

In February 1917, a massive demonstration in Petrograd sparked a general strike and barracks riots. The Tsar abdicated, and a provisional government, dominated by bourgeois parties, took power.

The Provisional Government

The provisional government promised to establish a parliamentary democracy but remained committed to the war effort. This hindered promised reforms and exacerbated popular discontent.

Rise of the Soviets

The Soviets, workers' councils, demanded the government's dismissal and withdrawal from the war. The unity that had fueled the revolution began to fracture, creating a duality of power between the provisional government and the Soviets.

The Bolshevik Revolution

On October 25, 1917, the Bolsheviks, supported by... Continue reading "The Russian Revolution: From Tsarist Autocracy to Bolshevik Rule" »

Infectious Diseases: An Overview

Changes to body physiology that disrupt normal body functions and are caused by microorganisms are called infectious diseases. This explanation, established by Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch, is called the germ theory of disease.

Causes of Infectious Diseases

Infectious diseases are caused by various microorganisms, including:

• Viruses
• Bacteria
• Fungi
• Protists
• Parasitic worms

Disease-causing microorganisms are also called pathogens. Koch also developed a series of rules, known as Koch's postulates, that help scientists identify which organism causes a specific disease.

While many microorganisms are symbionts that are either harmless or beneficial, pathogens cause disease by:

• Destroying cells
• Disrupting body functions
• Releasing

Key Motivational Theories

Theory X and Theory Y

• Theory X: Focuses on physiological needs, safety, and security needs.
• Theory Y: Focuses on love (social) needs, esteem needs, and self-actualization needs.

ERG Theory

• Existence Needs: Encompass physiological and physical safety needs.
• Relatedness Needs: Encompass interpersonal safety, love, and esteem needs.
• Growth Needs: Encompass self-actualization and self-esteem needs.

McClelland's Need Theory

Manifest Needs: Learned or acquired needs that are easily perceived.

• Need for Achievement: Encompasses excellence, competition, challenging goals, persistence, and overcoming difficulties. People with a high need for achievement perform better.
• Need for Power: Concerns the desire to influence others, change people

Central Powers

Germany, Austria-Hungary, Turkey, Bulgaria, Italy (only 1 year)

Allies

France, Russia, Great Britain, Italy (1915), later Japan and USA
