Essays on Displacement

Over a long time, there have been witnessed various disasters that occur beyond human control. The natural disaster tends to take place any time of the year regardless of whether tourism is at its peak or not (Ritchie et al. 15). Therefore, it happens that at times the natural disasters become one of the most challenging situations people encounter at diverse economic regimes. In most countries, a natural disaster has led to the loss of lives of many people including the tourists. Moreover, it is evident that natural disaster does not choose the place to occur, and hence it ...

Abstract

This lab study was undertaken to analyze the effects of torque forces and shear modulus of rigidity on three circular solids namely, half-hard brass (60% Cu and 40% Zn), 0.1% and 0.4% carbon steel. This was done by subjecting the samples to a shearing stress and by noting down its angular displacement. The maximum torque of each sample was calculated and compared. Their polar moment of inertia was also calculated to assist in analysis. The value of shear modulus of rigidity of each of the samples was determined using a graph which related torque and angular displacement. It was ...

Cornell University, Country in Arial 9 Roxanne Grenier North America Abstract As of 2014, 38 million people worldwide have been driven out of their own homes by internal instabilities, armed conflict, and outbreaks of violence. The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) alone accounts for 2.8 million internally displaced persons (IDPs). In response, relief-driven charitable practices have consequently created a condition of permanent impermanence, perpetuating the problem of dependency, unemployment, and instability. This forced movement of culturally and geographically heterogeneous groups evokes questions of housing stability: How does migration impact the social, economic, and political standing of the refugees? Given ...

MULTICULTURAL PROJECT PLANNING

Such unfavorable situation can be easily noticed, for instance, in Chechnya, which has suffered two bloody conflicts in the past two decades, resulting in more than 10,000 civilian deaths, moreover, the region is still rebuilding after a period characterized by widespread violence, family separation and loss, and massive population displacement (Betancourt, 2008, n.p.). In order to perform one’s duty of active, open-minded and conscious citizen, it is efficient to take part in some charity organisations. Being interested in the struggle in Chechnya, I participate in a refugee relief organization, one of direcrtions of the work of which ...

Writing Assignment

Which school of psychology do you agree with most? In your paper (at least 5, well-written sentences), provide 3 reasons WHY you agree with it the most. I agree most with the psychodynamic perspective among the schools of psychology. The school is oriented in believing that the human behavior is influenced by the different mental conflicts that are locked in the sub-conscience. The school of thought is more convincing because of the fact that the personality of an individual is inside the individual and is controlled by the interaction between the superego, the ego, and the id. Additionally, the ...

Introduction

Taking measurements may require the conversion of the measured quantity to electrical quantity. Transducers are devices or elements that perform this function by transforming physical quantities such as quantities like sound, light, or temperature into electrical signals like current, voltage, or capacity. Transducers consist of inputs, sensing elements, transduction elements, signal processing, and electrical outputs. The inputs known as the measurands are the quantities, states, or properties that are to be translated into electrical outputs. The sensing elements accurately measure these input energies and sends the information to the transduction elements to be transformed into the desired form. The ...

When these factors are manipulated in different scenarios, the desired distance is achieved. The sport of ski jumping requires one to jump the furthest down an inclined slope. It is done by gaining the maximum possible speed one can attain upon takeoff from the ramp. It is achieved by minimizing the frictional drag due to the air resistance between the air and the skier. The air resistance is significantly ...

The Physics of Tsunamis

Humans have known about the destructive force of tsunamis for a long time, however, until the devastating tsunami incident in Indian Ocean in 2004 not much international effort was put into the research and development of methods and tools to effectively predict, warn and mitigate the upcoming disaster. The topic of creating an effective early warning system for the areas threatened by tsunamis is very important, but this paper focuses on the physics behind the processes of the formation and propagation of the tsunami waves which, in fact, is the basic knowledge required for developing the warning systems mentioned ...

Chapter 1 – Introduction to Color Study

1. What is the difference between direct light and reflected light? Give examples of each. Direct light travels from the source to the destination without being interrupted while reflected light is the light produced when the direct light bounces off a material. One example of direct light is the sunlight while reflection from the mirror is an example of reflected light (Young, Freedman & Ford, pp. 1080). 2. Describe the cause of color, the means used to generate it, and the effect. Light consists of a spectrum of light wavelengths which have a representative color; thus, upon reaching the retina ...

Slide 2:

In the modern world today, we face as a global culture the inclination of civil wars and political crises and displacement of peoples. The quote mentioned above refers to the displacement of people due to natural and political disasters. When these disasters transpire, individuals are typically living in sub-standard living conditions. What ends up happening as a result is that people are exposed to living conditions with lower sanitation that were seen many centuries ago. This subjects these populations to diseases that they may have not been subject to previously. In order to combat this epidemic, we have to ...

Post Disaster Project: Prepare a Project Plan

Project description A disaster is natural or man-made occurrence, that causes immense damage to human life, animal life or properties, on a large scale. It creates the need for external human assistance to alleviate the sufferings of the victims, minimize their loss and return them back to a state where they can manage the situation independently. Sometimes, the damage associated with a disaster is irreversible and assistance can only help victims to adapt. A proper disaster management project can help foresee disasters and minimize loss. Preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation are the different stages involved in the management of ...

Colombian conflict - asymmetric warfare, which began in 1964 (active - since 1966) and continues at the present time, between the Government of Colombia, paramilitary groups, criminal syndicates and leftist guerrillas (FARC, ELN) for influence in the country. It is believed that, historically, the civil war has become a continuation of la violencia - armed struggle between conservatives and liberals in the 1948-1958. The victory of the conservatives in this struggle led to the unification of liberal and communist militants in the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). Causes for the outbreak of conflict, each party interprets to their ...

GROUP DISPLACEMENT ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST

Latest decades have seen an alarming growth on involuntary displacements of populations due to a wide set of reasons. In the Arab World, most literature has agreed upon focusing towards population movement caused by political conflicts that led to war. The extent of this phenomenon becomes evident after realizing its scope: Syrians, Palestinians, Lebanese and Egyptians have been the target of displacement caused by wars fought by the Arab and Israeli. It’s important not to look at this phenomenon as a mere isolated event, but more of a process that keeps developing. More recently, the occupation of parts ...

Introduction

In this paper, the author analyzes the case on the troubled alliance between Volkswagen and Suzuki, two of the biggest and most popular auto-makers in the respective regions that they cater. Suzuki is famous for their small, petite, and fuel efficient cars in Asia. Volkswagen, on the other hand, is famous for their powerful, elegant, and fuel efficient cars in Europe and the Americas. Because of the theory that was posed earlier suggesting that in the current industry environment, most automobile manufacturers are on a constant lookout for more ways to expand—the fastest way possible. From the start, ...

In his theory of moral disengagement, Albert Bandura (1986) suggests that most people develop a mechanism of self-sanction in order to prevent them from conducting immoral actions that could adversely affect a person’s self-worth and cause a person’s self-perception become negative (p. 161). However, since moral standards are not constantly active, but are actually activated in specific situations, such as during decision-making, even a person, who holds firm moral beliefs, can turn to mechanisms of moral disengagement, when “conducive social conditions”, rather than “monstrous people,” are required (“How people do bad things,” 1991, p. 1). According to ...

Introduction

Most of the African countries were under the colonial rule. Due to the growth of industries in Europe, which was facilitated by the concept of industrialization that saw numerous economic, social and industrial changes in Europe, European countries had to look for raw materials for their industries. Consequently, they ventured into the African continent and other parts of the world in search of places where they would get raw materials for their industries back at home (Ahluwalia, 2012). Various European countries portioned Africa into different colonies, and Kenya was taken by Britain. Kenya is a beautiful country that is ...

Every country exhibits two kinds of economy, these are the formal and informal economy. However, the formal sector is the most important for every country. It's what determines the country’s position of development as well as growth. Formal economy is made up of all the sectors of the economy that can be taxed. The formal jobs which contribute towards the growth and development of the country and are taxed to make up this kind of the economy. They include companies, industries, big businesses and some medium-sized and small corporations. So long as they pay taxes, the business no ...

The lecture, conducted by Dr. Dolapo Adeniji-Neil at the Adelphi University, gives us an insight into the problems experienced by internally displaced people in the contemporary world. The lecture material does not remind an excerpt from the history book about the events unfolding in a certain country, but makes the audience develop a sympathetic and respectful attitude to people who suffer from the situations that do not depend on them. Being internally displaced herself, the lecturer engages the audience into the topic with the help of real life stories that sound truly terrifying for people who do not face ...

The current growth of higher education has increased the concentrations of students in residential areas in urban centers (Smith, 2005). Most of higher learning institutions have open doors policy for both the local and international students that translate into the influx of students from different cultural backgrounds in residential areas. The firms owning residential buildings interpret studentification as a benefit to their business (Sage, Smith, & Hubbard, 2012). These companies usually inflate the rental charges to match the increased housing demand. The social cohesion in the residential communities has also been adversely affected by the growing number of students in ...

Syria had been in chaos due to the demands of many to overthrow President Bashar Hafez al-Assad which runs an autocratic regime. In addition to this conflict, there are many different demands in Syria that had caused more confusion. Some simply wants a more democratic state and a less corrupted government while some wants an Islamist theocracy to be implemented. These conflicts had likewise cause many of the Syrians to get displaced or forced out of the country (Author 290). This paper will likewise discuss the short-term and long-term consequences of the Syrian displacement.

Introduction

The Refugee Convention of 1951 defines the term ‘refugee’ in words that are very much self-explanatory when it says that a refugee is an individual who “owing to a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his nationality, and is unable to, or owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself of the protection of that country.” The people who have to flee their homes and sometimes their countries face challenges that ...

Introduction

Bend (flexure) testing is often done in springs as well in brittle materials whose behaviors of failure are linear like concrete, wood, plastic, glass and ceramics. Bend testing is suitable for evaluating the strength of brittle materials where the results of tensile tests aren’t easy to interpret due to the breaking of specimens around the gripping (Schoffstall, Charles, and Robert 234). In bend testing experiment, smooth rectangular specimens without notches are recommended under three or four point bend arrangements. Figure I below illustrates three point and four point bend arrangements respectively. Figure 1. Bend testing of a smooth ...

Pump Application: Building Water Pump

Pumps are devices used to move fluids from one point to another by creating differences in pressure between the two points. Pumps are powered by a prime mover, which can be either a diesel engine or an electric motor. The pump converts the energy supplied by the prime mover to potential energy by pressurizing the fluid it’s pumping. For example, a diesel pump has an engine that converts chemical energy in the fuel to mechanical energy in the form of torque. The torque from the engine is then picked up and transmitted to the pumping mechanism for fluid ...

Contrasts

Georgia gold rush, which took place in the early nineteenth century, had various attributes, which governed the way the gold enterprise took place. Among the different aspects included labor, social, political and economic characteristics, which were vital for the stability of mining.in this regard, this paper will compare and contrast political and economic attributes that gold miners in Georgia experienced mining and trading in gold merchandise(Bryan 398). Apparently, political associations were formed by the natives who occupied the gold belts and held the land as their ancestral land. Natives were known as Cherokees.in contrast to economic forces that ...

Effects of Cote d'Lvoire and Globalization

The effects of the Globalization phenomena can be felt all around the world. Globalization is interaction and subsequent integration of people, countries and organizations driven by information technology infrastructure and aimed at bolstering international trade and cooperation on common issues. Without denying the innumerable good it has done to the nations of the world, even to Cote d'Lvoire, there is no disputing that there has been allot of harm brought upon this nation. In this manuscript, it shall be revealed that globalization has not been good for the people of my country.

Chiari malformation is a disease of central nervous system, which affects the position of the cerebellar tonsils. It was named after the Austrian scientist Hans Chiari, who described this condition in the 1891 (Schijman, 2004). The pathoanatomic basis of this disorder is the inferior position of the cerebellum and brainstem comparatively to the anatomic standard. In a healthy person, cerebellar tonsils are located above the foramen magnum in the postcranial fossa. Due to this disorder, they are dislocated to the level of the first or second vertebra. Normally cerebrospinal fluid is constantly circulating through the cavities in the brain. ...

The Displaced Person movie review

How often in life some considerable things that are passing by people prefer not to perceive at all. It is easer to fence yourself off the obscure situation, to take the role of the unbiased arbitrator and just observe. However, there comes a day that all your indifference will strike a knock-down blow. To prevent such an unpleasant moment or avoid these consequences at all you should learn to take every event in life into your own consideration and try to experience them as an instructive lesson. If you recognize your own fears and make efforts to overcome them ...

In his story The Things They Carried, Tim O’Brien ostensibly tells a tale about the war in Vietnam that, in actuality, is a mirror of the human condition exposed through the horror of human conflict. In so doing, O’Brien uses an old philosophical theme first set in writing by Aristotle. Through the angst of conflict, O’Brien succeeds in demonstrating the essence of being. Aristotle pointed out that to be complete in essence; a being must be “in the is, and in the is not” (Aristotle 1050). That is, a whole human is the product of both ...

Lending Institutions, Healthcare and Human Capital

India is a developing country which has enjoyed an important economic growth in the past decades. Lending institutions, such as the World Bank or IMF have supported the country’s development by funding different program meant to reduce the poverty rate and promote stronger economic development. International lending institutions have recorded success in many countries, where the long-term loans provided by these institutions were able to support countries’ development. While the World Bank and other lending institutions continue to support India, researchers have identified several drawbacks to its policies, which may support economic growth, but do not necessarily promote ...

Recent years have seen the growing popularity of hot spots policing in contemporary law enforcement efforts. Hot spots policing involves the concentration of limited police resources on some areas that generate the majority of crime or delinquency (Braga, 2006). Hot spots, therefore, are areas with higher than the average number of criminal events or risk of victimization (Battin, 2009). The goal of hot spot policing is to reduce the prevalence of particular crime or disorder problems within an area by focusing on the nature and setting of criminal events rather than on the profiles or motivations of offenders. This ...

Introduction

The Rational Choice Theory is one of the most common and widely accepted theories in criminology. This theory is useful to deter criminal activity by changing the environment that might invite the attention of criminal elements. This theory has a crime displacement application. Most of the initiatives for crime prevention use the Rational Choice Theory. This theory proves that criminals make a rational choice when selecting targets by weighing the pros and cons (Akers, 1990).

Origins of the theory

The history of this theory traces back to the inspiration of Cesare Bonesana-Beccaria’s book, On Crimes and Punishment. Beccaria contended that people decided ...

Response Paper

<Institution>

Sigmund Freud believes that people who experience anxiety unconsciously deal with it through a number of strategies called defense mechanism. Three of these defense mechanisms are Displacement, Rationalization, and Denial. Displacement happens when “the expression of an unwanted feeling or thought is redirected from a more threatening powerful person to a weaker one” (Author, Year). I have seen this many times before from my friend. Whenever he gets frustrated at work or whenever he feels tired, he tends to express his frustration towards his wife. This leads to many arguments, and sometimes, unintentional verbal abuse. One time, ...

In 2004, Honduras signed the Central American Free Trade Agreement (“CAFTA”, or “CAFTA-DR”). It was approved by the U.S. in 2005 and fully implemented by Honduras in 2006. CAFTA was a U.S. initiative in the mold of the earlier North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”) among the U.S., Mexico and Canada, on a smaller scale. Other signatories to CAFTA were Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala and Nicaragua. Prior to CAFTA, under the U.S. Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership Act and similar preference programs, the U.S. had already granted duty-free access to most exports from the same CAFTA ...

Civil wars and domestic conflicts tend to have devastating effects on a country. Wars negatively affect a country’s political, economic, and social sectors. The Syrian civil war, which started in 2011, is stated as one of the worst conflicts of the modern times. The fighting, which started as revolutionary protests but escalated into civil war, has affected both Syria and countries neighboring Syria. The conflict has resulted in one of the greatest humanitarian crises experienced in modern times with the death toll reaching up to 250000 people. Other than the high death toll and displacement rates, the Syrian ...

Wavelength and Frequency

In this experiment, the frequencies are recorded at high certainty values. The increased certainty in these values is due to the high precision of the Amplitude knob. It takes only a few seconds to change the frequency before an effect is seen. When the experiment is repeated for a standing wave with two wavelengths, we get different results. The two-segment waves vibrate with a node at each end and one note in the middle such that the wavelength is equal to the length of the string used in the experiment. The frequency of two segment wavelength is about twice ...

Objectives

The main aims of this experiment are to determine if the oscillation of a mass hung vertically from a spring are an example of simple harmonic motion, to measure the gravitational acceleration of the earth and to determine the accuracy of the experimental results. The value of k (the spring constant) for the spring being used will also be measured and the relationships between the spring constant, mass and period of will also be investigated.

Management and Leadership

Part 1: Theory and reviewSection 1: Introduction There are two major views regarding contemporary management and leadership. The first is the personality perspective. In this perspective, the major influence of the leader is shaped by his power to influence other individuals towards achieving some goals. Therefore, the leader uses special traits that serve as bait and amalgamation for these individuals to work towards some common objectives. The other view is the behavioral aspect. In this case, the leader selects some tools that are directive, participative, and achievement oriented. The basis for selecting these tools is the needs of ...

Discussion

All roads lead to Rome is a common idiom used to mean that the same goal can be arrived at using different routes. But the history of this saying has a lot of significance to physics in terms of vectors, scalars, displacement and distance. Rome was the heart of activity during the times of the Roman Empire. Every road in the empire would either directly lead to Rome or link to a major road leading to Rome. Putting this into the physics perspective, vectors, scalars, displacements and distance are measurements that have a starting point and an endpoint.

A vector has both direction ...

How genocide affected the relationship between the Maya and the Guatemalan government. How would they react to the offer of military assistance to assist them in recovering from the Hurricane Stan?

The two articles give a clear and detailed picture of the effects of genocide. How the Maya community perceptions towards the Guatemalan government was distorted. The Guatemalan army, according to the articles, conducted all inhuman activities that you can imagine off, with the intention of implanting fear to the people. The military adopted harmful and dangerous techniques. They crushed communities, resulting to death of more than 200,000 ...

Abstract

The FIFA World Cup Soccer contest was held in South Africa (SA) in 2010. Planning the event and managing the resources were very challenging because SA did not have a well-developed tourist infrastructure. Many gaps were found during the planning stage that needed to be corrected if so the event would meet high expectations and show SA at its best. The government invested 3.15 billion Rands to make improvements for tourism needs. The largest expenditure for the government was for the safety and security of tourists. Tourism rose ...

Gentrification refers to the restoration of run-down urban regions by the middle class causing a displacement of the low income residents. While some of the indigenous residents of these cities find it hard to cope with the changing standards of living in the cities, the middle class who are not necessarily from around get to occupy the areas formerly occupied by the low income residents. This has had major impacts in the cities politically, socially, economically, as well as culturally. The presentation, therefore, looks at instances where gentrification has taken place in the two reading texts and the effects of ...

The case chosen for discussion in this paper is that of Jason (38), a factory worker. After reading the case, the first thing we would want to know is whether Jason is an addict. There are two symptoms that must be looked for before an individual is determined to be an addict. These symptoms are (i) out of control behavior, and (ii) a behavior that is self destructive. If a person’s behavior is under their control, then the person should not be considered an addict. It doesn’t matter at what frequency the subject engages in an addictive behavior. What really matters ...

Despite the fact that the United States history has serious experience gained from the American Civil War till the famous speech of Martin Luther King, our society is still harmed by presence of destructive ideas of social inequality and division not by the social position or character, but by ethnicity and therefore skin color. This problem is one of the most painful for the contemporary American nation as it is the boundary on the way to social progress and development. It divides our society and creates imaginary warfare and the set of senseless conflicts.

For sure, it has ...

It consists of an electronic control unit composed of a micro-processor with several electromechanical and electronic actuators and sensors. Sensor devices are used to monitor the vehicle engine and detect engine speed, lambda values, crank angle and other engine parameters. The electronic control unit determines the engine ignition time, the quantity of fuel and other engine parameters that keep the vehicle engine running. The ECU does this by use of input values that are calculated based on the inputs that originate from the sensors. Under this ...

INTRODUCTION.

The 21st Century represents a culmination of human development in different respects. In the natural resource sector, there have been massive establishments of modern petroleum industries, and the subsequent development and expansion of these industries are certainly among the significant success stories of this generation. Another significant development observed in this generation is the development and change in the environmental front, first observed in America then Western Europe in between late 1960 and early 1970’s. The environmental front poses unprecedented threats and challenges to the petroleum industry.

Exploration and extraction of petroleum causes detrimental impacts on water, soil, ecosystems, ...

The Karate Kid, a quintessential film portraying the journey of an adolescent through the odds of life and the final triumph of life, serves to cinematically describe the stages of development of an adolescent individual. It would be extremely interesting to apply the theories of Erik Erikson in deciphering the cinematic essence of the film and having a comprehensive view of the matter.

Erikson describes the stage to be one when the adolescent is concerned about how others perceive of him or her. The superego of the adolescent grows as does the confidence of oneself. The child finally develops a sense of ...

Situational Crime Prevention (SCP) refers to the use of criminal prevention strategies aimed towards the reduction of opportunities of crime (IC, 2014). The opportunities of crime present themselves in the day to day life and activities. The strategies used in the prevention of crime include improving the surveillance in regions that are most likely to attract crime; focusing on potential criminal targets; deflecting potential criminals from areas that attract criminal activities (IC, 2014). Situational crime prevention is valuable because it prevents potential criminals from committing crimes. It also offers safety to the community while reducing the fears of crime. ...

1.1 Overview Quantum mechanics is a branch of Physics that deals with the behaviors of energy and matter in the smallest perspective such as the nuclear, atomic, and microscopic levels. Quantum, meaning “how much”, refers to the quantifiable units to energy and matter as observed and predicted through physics. This branch of studies stated with mathematical reasoning of certain experiments that are non-explainable through the classical mathematical methods. Physics revolutionized during the early 20th century (Coolman, 2014). Various models has been developed by scientists since them to help them in their experiments in studying particular behaviors of reaction mechanisms ...

There is no simple definition of bisexuality because bisexual people are a very diverse group. Some of them tend to monogamous relationship, others may have more than one partner. There are several theories about the different models of bisexual behavior. Thus, there are 13 types of bisexuality based on the sexual desires and experiences. According to Flanders and Hatfield, alternating bisexuals may first have a sexual relationship with a man, and then can choose a woman, and then again return to men. Bisexual on the circumstances are mainly heterosexual, but can choose a partner of the same sex only in those situations where there ...

Broken Window Theory

The broken window (theory) refers to a criminological theory devised by James Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling. The theory states that monitoring and maintaining urban environments in a structured and well-ordered condition can stop vandalism. The theory investigates the effects of social disorder such as anti-social behavior as it relates to community life. Additionally, it correlates vagrancy, social norms and quality of community life. It is imperative to define social norms and disorder in order to efficiently examine how the broken windows concept requires both police and neighborhood participation.

Disorder and Social Norms

According to Keizer and Lindengard (2008), social norms and disorder refer ...
