That it’s so utterly engaging, and so amenable to repeat listens is testament to the undeniable skill of the musicians involved".

Robert Braile in The Boston Globe wrote that it has "no real context ... no rationale for probing this fantasy other than [Weisman's] unsubstantiated premise that people find it fascinating". Michael Grunwald in The Washington Post also questioned the premise: "Imagining the human footprint on a post-human planet might be fun for dormitory potheads who have already settled the questions of God's existence and Fergie's hotness, but it's not clear why the rest of us need this level of documentary evidence". On the other hand, Alanna Mitchell in the Globe and Mail review found relevance in the context of society's passiveness to resource depletion combined with an anthropomorphic vanity. She writes the "book [is] designed to help us find the how of survival by shaking us out of our passive dance with death".
The Prinzregentenzeit ("prince's regent's time"), as the regency of Luitpold is often called, was due to the political passiveness of Luitpold during an era of the gradual transfer of Bavarian interests behind those of the German empire. In connection with the unhappy end of the preceding rule of King Ludwig II, this break in the Bavarian monarchy looked even stronger. Finally, the constitutional amendment of 1913 brought the determining break in the continuity of the king's rule in the opinion of historians, particularly as this change had been granted by the Landtag as a House of Representatives and meant therefore indirectly the first step toward parliamentary rule in Bavaria. Today the connection of these two developments is regarded as a main cause for the unspectacular end of the Bavarian kingdom without opposition in the course of the November revolution of 1918.
Encouraged by the non arrests, by mid-1988, a group of 35 intellectuals organized the Sąjūdis Reform Movement with the original goal of supporting, discussing, and implementing Gorbachev's reforms yet short of openly supporting independence from the USSR. However, Sąjūdis grew in popularity, attracting large crowds to rallies in Vingis Park and therefore radicalizing its agenda, taking advantage of Gorbachev's passiveness. By 1989, Sąjūdis, not afraid of angering Moscow and causing a violent clampdown, continuously pushed further with its demands: from limited discussions on Gorbachev's reforms, to demand of greater say in economic decisions, to political autonomy within the Soviet Union. By the time of the Baltic Way, a human chain spanning over 600 kilometres (370 mi) across the three Baltic states to mark the 50th anniversary of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, the official goal of Sąjūdis was now independence for Lithuania.

In May 2014, Prime Minister Shinzō Abe said Japan wanted to shed the passiveness it has maintained since the end of World War II and take more responsibility for regional security.
Meanwhile, The Hollywood News' Rob Burch observed that the princess is very similar to Ariel, being "independent, beautiful, and desperate for the chance to live her own life," while at the same time concealing kindness beneath "a shield of anger." Belonging to "a series of spunky heroines" inspired by both contemporary feminism and the girl power movement, Jasmine was recognized by Hearing a Film, Seeing a Sermon: Preaching and Popular Movies author Timothy B. Cargal as a member of Disney's "continued efforts to reshape their heroines for a more feminist age," in addition to providing young girls with strong female role models with whom they can identify. At only 15 years of age, Jasmine is already more resourceful than her two immediate predecessors, while sharing their same preference for assertiveness and empowerment over passiveness, traits echoed by several other Disney Princesses introduced throughout the decade. At the same time, Jasmine is depicted as being feistier than Belle and less naïve than Ariel.

In Volume 15 of the manga, the truth finally comes out but she's not satisfied until she understands Manami's feelings and thoughts as well as Manami's wish to live on, although they cause Ayumu to get stabbed by Manami and, thus, hospitalized.
Later critics of Efuru, however, commend Nwapa for creating an image of female protagonists which is unlike that created by Nigerian male writers. Author Rose Acholonu describes Nwapa and certain other African female writers as “pathfinders”, who were able to “break the seals of silence and invisibility on the female protagonist by the early traditionalist male writers.” Christine N. Ohale a professor at the department of English, Communications, Media Arts and Theater in Chicago State University mentions that Nwapa's “efforts to present brand-new, assertive and individualistic females have helped to salvage the lop-sided image that male writers have created”, which is mainly one of passiveness. Furthermore, critics such as Naana Banyiwe praise the use of dialogue as a stylistic element of the novel; in her discussion of Efuru, Naana Banyiwe-Horne states, “The constant banter of women reveals character as much as it paints a comprehensive, credible, social canvas against which Efuru's life can be assessed.” Many reviewers of the novel agree that the “dialogic style established in Efuru is even more central to the novel’s thematic concerns” Through the dialogue that Nwapa uses, she is able to paint an accurate picture of what life for Igbo women is like.
Inherited from the Continental Philosophy, e.g. the German Idealism; Marxism; and Heideggerian philosophy from the Kyoto School, the Taiwanese philosophers as Hung Yao-hsün(:zh:洪耀勳), Chin-sui Hwang(:zh:黃金穗), Zeng Tianzong(:zh:曾天從), Fa-Yu Cheng(:zh:鄭發育), Shao-Hsing Chen(:zh:陳紹馨), Isshū Yō(:zh:楊杏庭), Shao-Hsing Chen(:zh:陳紹馨), Shoki Coe(:zh:黃彰輝), C. K. Wu (吳振坤) had the intellectual affinity with the Kyoto scholars. Hung Yao-hsün(:zh:洪耀勳) was one of these prominent figures of the Taiwanese Philosophy; In 1936, he issued ‘Art and Philosophy’ (藝術と哲學) with the Wilhelm Dilthey’s perspective on literature and thinking; and later in 1938 ‘Existence and Truth – Review on Schala Nuzubidse’s Theorem on Truth’(存在と真理─ヌツビッゼの真理論の一考察). , Shao-Hsing Chen(:zh:陳紹馨)in 1935/36 formulated the relation of individual and society based on the civil society formation from Adam Ferguson and G.W.F. Hegel (アダム・ファーグスンの市民社会論, 1935) and (ヘーゲルにおける市民社会論の成立, 1936). Isshū Yō(:zh:楊杏庭) in 1935 articulated on his ‘Infinite Negation and Creativity’ (無限否定と創造性) that from Henri Bergson, Martin Heidegger; Lev Shestov, the negation of life was not identified with the passiveness and nothingness. Zeng Tianzong(:zh:曾天從)’s 1937 ‘真理原理論’(the Principles on Truth, 1937) was one of the ostensibly recognized philosophical works in Japan; it was published by Risosha (東京理想社) and prefaced by Gen'yoku Kuwaki(桑木嚴翼).
