In 1760, King George III took reign of England, making quite a few controversial decisions along the way. By acting more aggressively towards France, George III started to alienate the rest of Europe, and tensions started to mount between George and the Whigs, as well as other European countries. By contrast, the sociopolitical climate of the colonies at the time was incredibly harrowing - increased taxation and more and more controversial legislation on the part of England was breeding resentment among the colonists. The Sugar, Currency, Stamp and Quartering Acts of the mid-1760s, among others, were thought to be unfair ...

Education for extinction is a history of the American Indians education during the assimilation era precisely in boarding schools. Adams explains that the boarding schools were used by the government as the major communication channel for communicating the American Indian issues. Even if the student failed in the assimilation, the schools left cultural and psychological marks on the lives of the students.
The war was against the Native American children in the classrooms and dormitories of government schools. Those in the authority thought that taking Indian students from their homes for long periods could cause civilization of the white ...

INTRODUCTION

for India for a 31 year period starting from 1980-1981 up to 2010-2011 on six independent
variables: Gross Domestic Capital Formation, Net Domestic Savings, Exports, Employment,

Gross Enrolment Ratio and Imports.

MOTIVE
Macroeconomic theory suggests that aggregate demand depends on economy’s investment,
savings, exports and imports. We have gone off the beaten track and included two
unconventional variables- the employment in the public and organized private sector and the
gross enrolment ratio. Our objective behind this has been to show how the spread of
education sector and increased employment opportunities affect the annual growth rate of

GDP and to find out if it has had a significant impact on the economic growth of India in the

past few ...

Devon Street of Chicago is well known for its domination of Indian Restaurants. The environment covered by this area has been crowded with people from diverse backgrounds but mainly Indians who are attracted by the cuisines in Chicago. The surrounding has mainly put their focus on detail and individual service which are their main characteristics that put them at the apex in the entire region. Chicago Street of Devon is also majorly known for its inhabitation by Indian restaurants and stores. It is a multicultural street found in the city. The main businesses in the city are run by people ...

The selection of India comes as no surprise for a number of reasons. It has an ever-changing population rate and a rich history that stipulates and rationalizes population trends. Mortality and population growth have historical underlying reasons. The point is that the Indians would incur multiple waves of incursion. Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan conquered parts of the Indian subcontinent while the British troops sent the whole region into the vassalage of English royalty. An increase in exploitation is always in inverse proportion to population growth and life expectancy. Since the region was the lucrative sources of spices, cotton, and ...

Introduction

The introduction of an International Film Registry organization would enable films from around the world to be remembered by future generations for their cultural, historical and aesthetic value. The organization will serve as a preservation site for culturally important identified films. The films that would be preserved will constitute films from organization’s member states that are recognized by the states to be containing significant social interests. It is important to note that the films that would be voted into the registry would not be the best films but those with historic, aesthetic and cultural representation of the society. In ...

It might seem strange that a lot of Americans are not even aware of the second war for independence (that is the other name for the war of 1812). However if we think about it, one can find quite a few reasons that have caused such ignorance among people. The war of 1812 has a very compound roots, extremely confusing course, and in addition to all of it the outcome of the war is also hard to understand, as both sides consider themselves to be winners. The war happened during the so-called stagnation period in the history of the US, the period ...

Introduction

When the European settlers came to North America, it was already inhabited by an indigenous group of people. In the 19th century white Americans came with the idea of Manifest Destiny and in order to realize their idea of possessing the entire continent of North America, they began removing Native Americans from their ancestral homeland into reserved territories for the Indians. The US government initiated the One Big Reservation policy in 1851 and according to this policy Native Americans were to shift into 'One Big Reservation' but the constant migration of European settlers, the evolution of transportation technology which ...

Nontraditional religions are very interesting and have a set of beliefs that are way different from the traditional religions. Their kind of belief does not in any way fall into any category that can be compared with the religions that have been around for centuries, those that are called conventional (Fox 2008). Some of them may be as old but they fall into the class of nontraditional religions. One of them is Hinduism which is the mother of such concepts as yoga and Ayurveda.
The most interesting aspect of Hindu is that it has a characteristic belief in reincarnation whereby a ...

Classic English literature: Octavio Paz

‘Poetry is knowledge, salvation, power, abandonment. An operation capable of changing the world, poetic activity is revolutionary by nature; a spiritual exercise, it is a means of interior liberation’. These words belong to Octavio Paz, a Mexican poet and essayist, whose creative work has set a new era for Mexican literature. Paz considered poetry to be pure and essential being, which regardless of time in history always finds its place in people’s hearts, providing sacred salvation to the world (Poetry foundation).
Born in tumultuous times when Mexico was undergoing a revolution, Octavio Paz could successfully become a writer, whose talent and writing skills ...

Imperialism is a subject which draws very strong opinions and emotions from historians and it offers a lot of scope for arguments and discussions. Today’s generation view imperialism to be inhumane and an arrogant activity undertaken by a strong nation to exploit the people and resources of a weaker nation. This is mostly true because the conquering European powers did utilize the mining and agricultural potentials of the African and Asian nations, to benefit the economy of their homeland rather than for the welfare of the countries they occupied. But one should not forget that, there were also a ...

Introduction

Asians Americans are those members of the American population whose origin can be traced back to the Middle East and Asia as a whole. It is pertinent to note that this group of the American population identifies itself as Chinese, Indian, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and many other Asian affiliations . It is, therefore, clear that Asian Americans are drawn from various national backgrounds. Consequently, these immigrants speak a variety of languages and conduct practices that give them a cultural and social identity. This paper seeks to highlight Asian American immigration trend, challenges and contribution to the wider American society.

He helped in the victory from the British in New Orleans in 1821, and is famous for advocating for every individuals right and freedoms.
The Indian removal Act of 1830, signed by Andrew Jackson, was a policy that advocated for the removal of the Native Americans, five tribes of native Indians, to the east of the Mississippi river in exchange for their lands. Even though president Jackson believed in every individuals ...

Even though the way in which Cynthia J. Van Zandt “Brothers among Nations” has structured her article is a bit frustrating, the insights that she makes are quite fascinating. The topic of her essay is centered in the mid 1600s when “Cheaspeake became the center of an extraordinary intercultural alliance” (Madaras and SoRelle, p. 61). Although Zandt moves and flows away from the line of interpretation, but I find the important thesis statement that emerges in her essay quite compelling. Van Zandt’s thesis revolves around “the ideas of liberty that flourished during the 1640s and 1650s” (Foner, p. 84) ...

Eric Foner’s ‘Voices of Freedom’ contains an excerpt from Bartolomé de las Casas’s History of the Indies, a book he had started writing in 1527 and was published a year later in 1528. Primarily, History of the Indies, as it title suggests, was a recollection of the history of the Indies from 1492, when Christopher Columbus first arrived in the New Land, until 1520, based upon everything Bartolomé witnessed himself. It can be assumed that Bartolomé’s book was directed to the Castilian Crown as well, to deliberately provoke the Europeans, and this is how the concept of the “Black ...

Background and definition of yoga

According to Tait, Laditka, Laditka, Nies and Racine, the number of Americans resorting to Complimentary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) has increased tremendously in the recent past decades (24). Yoga, a term used to denote the physical, mental and spiritual disciplines that form part of the six principal systems of Indian thinking called darsana (Desikachar, Skelton, and Carter 1), is one form of CAM which, even though has its origin and wide usage in India, has spread rapidly to all parts of the world owing to its numerous and essential health benefits. As Desikachar, Skelton, and Carter assert, the term Yoga, ...

Remembering life through tastes. This seems to be the essence of “Climbing the Mango trees – A Memoir of a Childhood Indian”. Traditionalism and local Indian events are shared through the pages of this book, which creates the impression of a happy, normal family, a family much entrenched in the Indian values. Nevertheless, as in any family, first of all, the one presented here, the author’s family displays feelings of love, protection, and sharing among each other. For any of these feelings, and many others that exhibit out of this book, the author found associations with different food spices of dishes.

Poverty & Wages

Question a

Poverty can be defined as a condition of inability to live normal life because of existing economic conditions. Currently, there are several root causes of poverty in the world. They could be classified as individual or aggregate causes of poverty. Individual causes are those that affect an individual person while the aggregate ones are those that affect the whole population or economy. The causes of poverty may or may not have remedies.

Low levels of education and lack of skill is one of the root causes of poverty, especially in the developing countries. Lack of proper education will lead ...

Indian History

History is an important aspect one should understand as they try to understand a group of people or a location.

Furthermore, studying the historical background of any given place enlightens the view held as regarding that region. With this in mind, the rewinding of New Delhi life is an important aspect in the quest of understanding the present city.

Traditional music of India and its influence on western music

Melodious, soft and full of colors, that’s how Indian music has left its footprints on the entire world, till date. It is based on true ragas that act as a groundwork for a complete musical performance. The inclusion of ragas in Indian music plays an important role due to the joy it imparts during a performance. Unlike western classical music, Indian ragas are not produced by composers; instead they are formed via a prolonged evolutionary process carried out for years long. It spreads a universal note all over the world through both personal and impersonal emotions displayed. Although there are numerous ragas but a ...

John White’s watercolours and De Bry’s engravings

Introduction:
The failed colony at Roanoke in 1585 was a disastrous mission yet it brought about some interesting observations on Indian life which would be useful again in the future. Nothing is more intriguing as a finding from this mission than the sets of watercolours on Indian life by John White and the resultant engravings made by De Bry which provide for a striking comparison. They also include much detail although that can appear to be also the imagination of both artists but on the whole the pictures are a valuable document of Indian life at a time when such things were completely ...

India has grown its market visibly in the last few years and has joined the list of few countries growing above 9% GDP; will all the economic developments, India also stands on the 5th place in purchasing power parity. Another interesting finding about the Indian market is that the success of any new launch is dependent on the earlier entry, the kind of control on the mode of entry and shortest possible cultural gap between the host nation and the home nation.

In the present scenario the mode of entry will really make a difference for IKEA and therefore out ...

The Impact of Racial Ethnic Americans.

Introduction

The purpose of this presentation is to explore ways in which people of color and minority groups are represented in various cultural forms. It is hoped that this would create greater understanding of how these images are connected to particular events in their American history.

Importantly, perceptions of ethnicity and racial profiling have all emerged from these socio- cultural factors.
Consequently, the writer chooses to divide this paper into two distinct components. First, a brief discussion of the films ‘ethic notions,’ ‘spirit of crazy ...

Introduction

Global branding can be simply referred to the process whereby a company directs its efforts at spreading its name, brand, and logo worldwide. According to Chabowski, Samiee, and Huit (as cited in Lu, 2014, p.36), “global branding is defined as the manner in which firms select, manage, and control their brands across international markets”. Firms follow the global branding strategy for several reasons like obtaining access to fast growing markets, exploiting economies of scale, and broadening the customer base. If a company manages to apply global branding and brand positioning strategies collectively in a thoughtful manner, surely it can take greater advantages ...

Female foeticide, which refers to the selective abortion of female fetuses, is a serious concern in India as it not only contributes to the gender inequality, but also includes various implications with regards to demographic imbalance, gender hierarchies, victimization of females and a challenge to the development paradigm of the country . Every year, over one million females die before their birth in the form of female foeticide in India. Females not only encounter gender inequality, but also deprived of the right to birth. In the past, while female infanticide was on the peak, the availability of prenatal sex determination ...

Foreign Direct Investments in Asian Economies
Introduction

Direct investments can be defined as physical investments that are made into building a factory in the domestic company (Graham and Spaulding, 2005).

Foreign direct investment or FDI can be defined as foreign investing directly into the productive assets of a domestic company.

The problem on unemployment has been a long standing issue since time in memorial. Each country, whether they may be developed or developing country, has their own rate of unemployment, and they gradually increase each year. While experts and critics believe that the problem itself is unavoidable due to the rapid growth rate and available jobs in the market, many believe that the problem of unemployment has been caused primarily by politicians and their failure to understand the issue’s importance to the public. In the case of the United States, the issue of unemployment poses a challenging threat to the ...

Introduction

International migration is used to generally refer to movement of people from their country go live in other countries. There are several reasons associated with this form of migration such as civil war in the country of origin, search for employment, economic hardships in a person’s country, epidemics, and a search for bigger career opportunities. In most cases, international migration involves people moving from developing countries to go and live in developed countries which in turn impacts negatively on the developing countries. This is because such countries end up losing their skilled human resource as most of those people that ...

Religion and spirituality continue to be unrecognized as effective strategies for coping against tragedies and life pressures and as essential factors in self-protection and psycho-emotional resiliency (Bryan-Davis, Austria, Kawahara & Willis, 2014). Despite that, these concepts constitute key pathways towards the holistic health and well-being of women (Bryant-Davis, Gray & Bhang, 2014). This paper explores the influences of religion and spirituality on women’s wellbeing, the few specific forms of nontraditional spirituality (such as Astrology, Hinduism, Gnosticism, Yoga, and Meditation), the seven markers of spiritual wellness according to Pazzino (2014), my personal definition of spirituality, my personal spiritual wellness self-assessment, and ...

The oldest written Hindu scripture, the Rig Veda, dates from at least 1500 BC and perhaps even before the Aryan invaders from the north conquered the ancient Indus Valley civilization. Indeed, this civilization was perhaps many thousands of years older than any other known on earth and thought to be very advanced in science, technology, architecture, public works and metal working. According to some legends, it was even aware of flying machines, spacecraft, nuclear weapons and extraterrestrial civilizations. It also practiced the brahmavidya or supreme (God) science as revealed by a series of rishis, mystics and prophets, with the Buddha ...

Tradition can be thought of as an annual family ritual like a Christmas tree on Christmas Eve. Traditions can also apply to communities such as when the nation watches the lighting of the White House Christmas tree on television. Not everyone in one community or even one family always celebrates in exactly the same way and exactly the same time.

Another way to define tradition according to Oxford American Dictionary (728) is as “a long-established or inherited way of thinking or acting.” That definition applies more to what this essay will be discussing. Even better is the fourth definition ...

INTRODUCTION

World exploration and explorers are always hailed in history books and classes as significant events and people because they have opened doors to new eras of trade, knowledge and information, technology and cultural consolidation. The names Christopher Columbus, Vasco de Gama and Ferdinand Magellan are some of the greatest names in exploration. Countries that have often been associated with historical explorations are Spain, Portugal, Great Britain – in other words, Western countries. A closer scrutiny, however, of historical explorations showed that ancient China conducted explorations and voyages even before these Western countries did in the 15th century.
