Introduction

One of the most significant topics of the Middle East history that is considered to be Arab cultural awakening is undoubtedly Arab nationalism. On the one hand, it gathered strength and coherence during and after the First World War. On the other hand, little light is actually shed on that recent phenomenon. A lot of scholars may even get into a mess in defining Arabs, as well as determining what is meant by Arab nationalism. However, taking into consideration the fact that the twenty-first century is characterized by a considerable political activeness, much attention should be paid to Arabs ...

Introduction

The concept of gender specific jobs and roles continue to stall and receive controversial opinions. Historical etymology and practices place men within certain positions different from those of women. The rise and development of intellectual modernity, civilization and constitutional provisions that identify both genders to be equal and capable of performing at similar capacity and platforms have seen a substantial paradigm shift regarding occupational perspectives on gender aspects. Gender issues, differentiated reception on women and treatment within the ambit of social structures where men encompass a majority section in the military sphere and the minority portion in professions like ...

Question and Answers

Question 1

The schools were seen as a mean to social advancement, tool for equality, and social stability vehicle that will help instill discipline among the students. The proponents of public schools argued that it was a tool that would be used to bring about equality in the societies. This was to be achieved through bringing in children from different social backgrounds together to learn common values. Mann, a proponent argued that the institution would reinforce social stability by liberating students from their parents’ influences that failed to encourage discipline among them. The proponents believed that schools were important ...

Question 1: Slavery not morally wrong until late 18th century

The slavery era was a dark period for the minority groups and especially the African American who were held as slaves. Prior to the 18th Century, slavery was considered normal as the laws by then protected the salve owners and legitimized the actions. Prior to the 18th century, the only groups that were eager and willing to talk against slavery were the Quakers, slaves, and free blacks. The people who advocated for the freedom of the slaves coupled the calls for freedom with colonization, deportation to Africa, Caribbean or to Central America. This school of thoughts was information by ...

In this video, an experiment was conducted to investigate how majority group’s social pressure affects people’s conformation. Seven students are put in a stable room with another naïve participant and a task on line judgment is used. Before the experiment, the seven confederates had decided on which response to adopt when the task is presented. However, the naïve participant is not familiar with this plan and believes that, every other participant is real. In all the criminal trials made by the seven confederates, the naïve participant follows their opinions. If I was a naï ...

There are various regulations that tend to influence the APRN practice.

Part 1

Privileges refer to benefits, immunity, or a right enjoyed only a person or a particular group of people. White privilege encompasses unearned power that has been systematically conferred to whites over the years (Rothenberg, 2011). What other people, consider as privileges, some whites consider being normal daily experience conditions that are available to all people. Some of the earned entitlements include free speech, feeling safe in places that are considered public spaces, being valued for the contributions one can make in the society and being able work in places that enable them to fulfill their potential. For an individual ...

I believe that making a summary is a challenging task. Reproducing a shorted form of the author’s ideas, particularly in large works (e.g. chapters), can be overwhelming. Understanding the thoughts in details is one thing. Compressing it while staying faithful to the central ideas I believe will compress my brain as well. I cannot imagine compressing a 10,000-word chapter in 250-word summary. My first reaction was: even stringing the key words together into a summary may not limit the volume into 250 words. Hard the task may be, I believe certain skills can be learned in forcing ...

Question 1: Initial Post

The books Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl written by Harriet Jacobs and Blake; or the Huts of America (1859–1861) by Katy L. Chiles extensively compares in the themes, especially the plight of slaves during the antebellum period.

At the age of 14, Keckley is raped by a white man and gives birth to a son, George. Mrs. Burwell, on the other hand, encourages Mr. Bingman, the schoolmaster to physically abuse her in order to suppress her ...

Mass Communication sets or perpetuates some gender agendas.

Mass communication provides an enormous influence on today’s society. It is something, which influences people thoughts, ideas, and attitude. It deals with art, paintings, films, music, and language. It ruins all the censorship that influences people during many centuries (Tedlock). Today, such things as movies, the TV, has a massive influence on the generation. In particular, it influences children. Movies today promote the adult way of living. Maybe they do not describe it completely but still provide a great example of everyday life, which little children see. Still, the TV has its censorship, which splits both relevant and ...

Summary

Distance education in higher learning institutions requires analysis from an equity perspective since the low-context online learning can lead to difficulties for high-context learners. The first section of the article reveals a framework for high- and low-context cultures which relies on cross-cultural communication. A lack of nonverbal communication characteristic of the low-context system can translate into cultural clashes in the educational environment. In the next section, the explorer states dimensions typical of high-context cultures and centers on regulating the group’s harmony via nonverbal means in collectivistic communication. A demand for openness ...

What is the paternalistic ground for governmental activity and why is it troublesome according to Friedman?

The freedom of men can conflict, because absolute freedom is impossible, because often, one man’s freedom must be limited in order to protect the freedom of others. The freedom of men was always implied in the United States, but women only gained the right to vote at the beginning of the 20th century. The paternalistic ground for government activity is troublesome for liberals, because it is inescapable for any group designated as not responsible. This means men a majority of whom are white, make the decisions related to all other groups of people, with little consideration of the ...

It is important for an institution for higher education to conduct preliminary observations and surveys prior to developing a strategic plan in order to determine the areas, or departments that require some change, and those department or areas that are operating, and functioning properly.

Introduction

The Civil Right Restoration Act of 1987, also known as Groove City Bill, is a US bill, which dealt with governing of the federal money in the institutions in order to guarantee the execution of civil rights (Safransky, 2017). Its main task was to bring non-discrimination laws back into action. On February 1987, Senator Kennedy introduced the ‘Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987’ (Lewis & Dale, 1988). The act was one of the most important legislative documents at that time. Its significance can be compared to the 1972 Amendments. The Act deals with three federal laws. They are the Title ...

This discussion is a review of the protected health information (PHI) regulatory requirement as advanced by the state of Florida, the federal government’s HHS, and the Joint Commission (TJC). I believe that this regulatory measure stemmed out of HIPAA (1996) requirement that facilities restructure their electronic exchange, security, and privacy initiatives concerning PHI. The HHS, therefore, would direct, through Sections 261-264, that hospitals publicize their adherence procedures pertaining these issues. The following is an analysis of these three entities. The state of Florida, through Statute 456.057, advice that hospitals treat PHIs with the respect they deserve. Here, such ...

Reason for Catholic and Protestant Reformation’ Great Impact on Europe

The Catholic and Protestant Reformation represent the radical, religious, academic and traditional disturbance that traumatized Catholic Europe in the 16th Century. It set in place the notions and opinions that would describe the continent in the contemporary period. In central and northern Europe, activists like John Calvin, and Martin Luther questioned papal power and probed the Catholic Church’s capability to define Christian exercise. Although the movement was predominantly spiritual, the attitude of independence endorsed by Protestantism steered many people to rebel in contradiction of the power of the church and the authoritative monarchs, who relied on their authority ...

According to the 2012 census, the United States total population is estimated to be over 313 million; this represents a 9.7% increase within a period of 10 years (Thomas, 2014).

As a result, the diverse U.S. population has serious implications on the United States ...

The principles by James Madison in Federalist # 10 are better placed in accomplishing unity than those suggested by Cato. A large extended republic gives individuals the freedom of movement. As individuals move from one place to another, they interact with people who have different interests and cultures. It is only by such interaction that people understand the cultures and interests of other people and this enhances the establishment of unity. Having an extended republic may not look good in the short-term because of the evident divisions, but it is the answer to unity in the longer term. This is ...

The Asian American community has long been referred to as a “model minority" which is a term used to refer to non-white ethnic groups in the US and the perceived notion that they can to find success and adapt to the American way of life seamlessly.

Which of the two major political parties in the United States is most likely to face alignment in the coming years and why? In the USA, many voters tend to identify with one political party. It can be because of the party’s political ideologies or identifiable group factors such as ethnicity, religion, and socioeconomic classes. However, the loyalties may be changed and the voters gravitate towards the opposing party (Brooks). Party realignment occurs when a big bloc of voters who previously voted for one party does a massive shift to the rival party and remains with it for ...

Where did the idea of the American Dream first originate? Immigrants to the New World were bent on creating a new society, one that thrived on democratic principles, where they could worship freely and having equal standing in the eyes of the law regardless of their financial situation or social status. We believe these ideas to be our own, but they are not; these ideas are not uniquely American ideas. They are drawn from the beliefs of the early Protestants, specifically the ideas of separation of church and state, equality for all and hard work and integrity. The first ...

Cyber Defense

Background In the recent past, there has been an increasing reliance on technology to undertake numerous aspects of social, political, and economic lives in many countries across the globe. While the reliance on technology has had a positive impact on many aspects of our lives, that reliance also inherently attracts threats such as cyberterrorism. Consequently, cyber defense becomes a crucial element for nations. Cyber defense refers to the deliberate steps taken by governments to protect information that they hold to be sensitive. Cyber threats are not just a danger to the individual countries such as the U.S. that have ...

Term limits are an essential part of legislative control, but the processes also detriment the welfare of central actors in the system. Actors in the legislative system especially the members of the Senate are regarded in the office stay, and their careers also conform to the same criteria. Limitations in the American legislature deter the existence of service deliveries in public.

A bicameral parliament is a system of the legislative branch of the government made up of two complimentary houses that work together to pass laws. This system of parliament ensures that both the citizens and the government are adequately represented in the house and that sufficient consultations are made before any bills are passed into laws. In the case of the United States, the Senate embodies the interests of the state whereas the House of Representatives exemplifies the views of the country population as a whole (Moran 1895). The modes of qualification into these houses vary from one nation ...

After the 1960s, many African Americans and other minority communities as well as women were denied equal opportunities in housing, education and other areas. Many Americans faced unequal economic opportunities and jobs were not distributed adequately to the entire populace (Gourevitch, 163). Unemployment rates were high and economic recessions were regular and highly destructive to the people in the lower social classes (Gourevitch, 163). The cold war in Europe led to economic difficulties as there was free flow of trade between communist Western Europe countries and capitalist Eastern Europe countries. The McCracken Report as mentioned by Goldthorpe states that ...

While taking a closer look at Buck’s (2007) and Davis’s (1983) articles, I concluded the main theme in both papers to be how women of colour not only face sexism but also racism in western cultures, specifically the U.S. These articles address the development of the women’s movement in America and show how sex is always placed ahead of, and to the exclusion of, race when it comes to feminism. Both writers take the stance that women of colour never had a chance to be a viable part of the fight for women’s rights as ...

The Issues

The Asian Americans are groups of the Asians that inhabit the United States of America. Critical issues are affecting the group. The issues may be considered adverse about how the minority groups live in America. One of the significant problems that the group faces includes lack of political access and limitation of minority rights. The issue is related to the political representation of the Asian Americans as well as the minimal rights they face as minorities within the United States of America (Lin and Scherz 13). For instance, there are no policies that exist to protect the interest of ...

Multiculturalism is a defining characteristic of the Canadian people, where persons of diverse backgrounds and origins live in harmony. However, discord persists over the impact of various legislation and practices in the integration of immigrants as well as identifiable religious minorities. Multiculturalism, for instance, finds opposition on the premises that it promotes balkanization and isolation of ethnic groups. Proponents argue that such policy encourages herding of ethnic groups, where differences between groups are amplified as opposed to their common identity as Canadians (Kymlicka Par1). It is imperative for a multiethnic nation like Canada to institute mechanisms that facilitate feelings ...

According to Cavanagh, feminism is the belief that “all humans, male and female, should have equal political, economic and social rights.” Women are not asking for special rights, but the rights of equality for all, without gender being a factor of determination between who gets more, or who has no say, or who needs to be governed by others. What feminists want for all women is the freedom to be themselves. Freedom means the right to decide what to wear, how to look after their own bodies and how to interact with others. Enochs lists ways in which equality ...

Understanding the nature and connection between the mind and the body is less about finding one definite answer and more about the lasting implications that arise when probing into such a question. What does it mean to be a human being? Is humanness simply the body, or is it the desires and inclinations that make up our complex personalities? Are mind and soul one and the same? These questions arise in the Star Trek episode, “The Measure of a Man,” where Picard and Maddox view the same thing, Data, in two different ways. Maddox is initially guided by the ...

How to overcome racism if our own justice system is racial? We know that our nation has struggled a lot of unjust racial cases. For example, in the period of pre-civil war, the southern part of the United States was covered with slavery. The life of Black-African American groups was horrible as they were slaves and were treated as slaves also. They were a property that white people could buy and sell, had no rights, and were not protected by the legislature. In 1865, Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery, and the modern days are known for the public fight with ...

The article “Feminism, Foucault, and Subjects of Power and Freedom” by Jana Sawicki focuses on Foucault’s research and his ideas regarding feminism that he was promoting during his academic career. Sawicki discusses the different ways of resistance that were promoted by Foucault, and how modern feminists are incorporating them in their political work. While Foucault’s masculinity was not favored by others during his career, his methods were still seen to be very useful. Sawicki divided her article into three parts: Introduction, “Feminism and Foucault: Critique, Convergence and Possibility” and “The Late Foucault on Subjectivity, Power, and Freedom”. ...

Synopsis A

I agree with some parts of Synopsis A that refers to a chain of command being created to ensure a more systematic management of the Band of Merrymen. However, I believe that the solution does not provide specifics as to how revenues can be collected. I believe that it would be best to place leaders nearby the towns so that they can be easily identified by the wealthy, which will then lead them to avoid the areas where they know that the band’s leaders are located. I think that the solution is incomplete without ...

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Charter of the United Nations are all supporting documents that were drafted by exists and technocrats drawn from all active member states and subsequently unanimously upheld as binding treaties. The major mission as contained in the two documents is to emphasize on the recognition of every human being as equal and insistence on a peaceful and harmonious existence. Although most of the information as contained in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Charter of the United Nations seems to converge, some articles and chapters are implicitly conflicting.

Family Rights

1. Polyandry relationships provide for marriage system in which a woman can have more than one husband. Speaking from the historical perspective, the emergence of such marital arrangement in Tibet is related to the fact that the social system compelled marriage within a social status category.To understand the Tibetans' practice of polyandry, "it must be realized that Tibetan families consider it of great importance to keep together, without any division, whatever property they possess" (Prince Peter of Greece and Denmark, 1962, p. 414). That is the reason why husbands are often brothers or close relatives, which is referred to ...

1) Theories are to concepts as hypotheses are to variables. Hypotheses depend on tests that suggest multiple variables. On the other hand, theories are made up of concepts ("Theory and Practice of Social Research" 4). 2) Does a hypothesis propose a relationship between dimensions or variables? Yes. A hypothesis depends on the link that exists between two or several variables. Whereby, a slight change in variable ‘A,' leads to a change in variable ‘B.' In this case, it can be almost predictable that if the first event occurs on the first variable, then we expect variable ‘B' to ...

The human race has harmed the very planet that they live on, through their activities, since the very start of civilization. Using the resources provided by nature to fulfill the needs of the human beings is not something that is the cause of concern, but the indirect intent of incriminating damage to the environment is what the main source of concern is. Some of the impacts of human activity involve the disruption of carbon cycle, the disruption of hydro (water) cycle, and the reduction of species diversity. The major impacts of human activity on the carbon cycle include the ...

Introduction

Contraception as a method of population control has elicited mixed reactions from different quotas of the society. A section of religious conservatives still hold onto it that abstinence and not contraception should be the only approach to population control. On the opposing side, modernists believe that contraception allows is not only effective but also people freedom to reproduce when they wish. Canada is among the few countries on the globe where contraception has been implemented as a legal approach towards population control. In Canada, legalization of contraception was not solely done to curb population explosion but also as a ...

Is Hand washing more effective in Infection Reduction versus Gel Hand Sanitizers?

Introduction

Today, the burden of health care-associated infections (HCAIs) are drawing attention not only from governments and health care regulatory bodies but also from patients and more so from health care practitioners (HCPs) themselves. This phenomenon is not merely because of the magnitude of the problem regarding the associated incidences of mortality, cost, and complexity of treatment, and morbidity, but also due to the growing recognition and understanding that, most of these complications are preventable. The medical fraternity is thus witnessing in tandem unprecedented improvements in the spread ...

In December 2016, the US Secretary of State stated that, Israel would either have to be a Jewish State that does not intrude into Palestinian “land” or it should be democratic whereby Palestinians would be given equal rights as dignified citizens of one-state of Israel. This was something many Republicans and Conservatives found to be negative and Anti-American. The purpose of this paper is to argue that the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians cannot be solved. This paper will use elements of persuasion to establish a case to prove that America must stay away from imposing its will on ...

Black Lives Matter

I find social activism as a modern and more effective way to create awareness about an issue or initiate a protest against one. This is because social activism promotes mass movements in societies in which it is initiated, and as such, important matters that call for everyone’s attention can be addressed with urgency and the level of importance that can bring about social change. The social activism movement: ‘Black Lives Matter’, initially originated in the U.S. and later on replicated in the U.K., is one that I am particularly interested in. Spearheaded by the African-American community, the movement ...

Introduction

The film, “If these Walls Could Talk,” is a compilation of three generational segments of stories that exonerate the plight of women in the society against the general view of the dominant sex. This film was released in 1996, and it exclusively discusses the controversial issue of abortion, which seeps in three distinct generations. The three segments of the film entail different generations and decades, but the setup for the entire story transpires in the same house. The first story is a widow, whose husband was killed on the battlefield (Stuart, 2008). Demi Moore is the woman in the ...
