Capital is a driving factor of the United States, and always was an important thing to have through the years. No big deal, cash is only kind of important. Rozario throws a spin on it, however, in his \u201cwhat comes down, must come up.\u201d This description of investing in Disaster seemed strange at first, bringing religious background and finance as well as sentiment felt like it would be a difficult comparison. I now see a whole new idea of theory in studies of history. I like to imagine Marx and Engels are rolling over in their graves with\u00a0 each turn of the page. As Elizabeth states in her Karl Marx post (http:\/\/courses.shroutdocs.org\/hist300a-fall2016\/archives\/575<\/a>) He himself as well as Engel\u2019s were historians, and they practiced theory just as we do today. The theories that seemed to come up in this chapter of reading were almost in complete contradiction to the previous theories we learned in the Communist Manifesto. It was fun to see such differences, and it helps to analyze how two or three separate historians can see similar events and think such different things about them using different information and study. Marx would probably focus on environmental classism and analyze it through the eyes of the proletariat, or immigrants. The death tolls being so catastrophic, particularly in the San Francisco Earthquake. Yet in Rozario\u2019s writings he immediately jumps into the newspapers contradiction, and the later investment buildup because of the disaster itself as well as good advertising, and even cultural backgrounds found in the United States. We do see a lot of cross over from each side though, in the interactions described, but I\u2019ll admit I leaned towards Marx when Rozario mentioned the put down of the \u201crabble\u201d Creative destruction is now my new favorite phrase. Kevin Rozario\u2019s work was a good read, but it was a far better teacher.<\/p>\n
