Gilgamesh and Odysseus are well-known heroes from old epics of Mesopotamian and Greek cultures, correspondingly. The two characters have similar traits, such as courage and physical strength. However, there are also differences between the two of them. Each hero’s traits divulge fascinating information about their cultural ideals. Additionally, cross-referencing fictional individuals with real-life cultural ideals is worthwhile when examining any culture, at any point in history. Contemporary American culture, for example, appears to value physical attributes and attractiveness, more than anything. Examining Gilgamesh and Odysseus can be helpful not only in revealing details about the different cultural ideals ...

Abstract

The Madoff Securities scandal was one of the biggest Ponzi schemes to hit America. This essay would examine the Madoff scandal from an audit perspective since it was the complacency (or collusion) of the auditors that encouraged the perpetrator of this scam.

This was the lack of regulatory oversight in the Securities business. While one could lay the blame for this scandal on the Regulator, another important ...

Lord Gardiner’s statement is a wonderful example of legislators recognizing that precedent may stifle the appropriate outcome in a legal dispute. Comparisons can be made between other Western countries; for example, the US Supreme Court has reversed precedent that it set itself decades prior, such as the landmark case Brown v. Board of Education. Just like these countries, Lord Gardiner believed that Britain should not limit itself to decisions based solely on decisions in the past because the modern day situations that arise often require a more complex and systematic methodology for determining justice. In addition, but not ...

Introduction

Who wins and who loses? The one who wins has reflected his or her ability to influence the behavior of others. This is power. As defined by Robert Dahl, a leading political theorist, power is the ability of one to get another to do something he or she would not otherwise do as a result of the will imposed by the other, where adherence is driven by obligation rather than force. Power is dynamic, relative, situational and multidimensional. According to Steve Lukes, there are three dimensions of power. The first dimension of power is intentional and active, and involves ...

Traianou and Hammersley (2008) argue that it is widely accepted that both educational policymaking and education practice should be evidence-based, or evidence-informed.

What are minimal groups? How does group membership lead to prejudice and discrimination? Minimal groups are groups used in research methodology in social psychology. The groups are used for researching the minimal conditions that are necessary for discrimination to take place between the groups (Otten, 2016).

In their attempt to identify appropriate research approaches in politics, feminists have often criticized traditional social science methodologies.

A second, more pessimistic, view on the welfare state, according to Pateman (1987) is that it provides the government with new approaches to exercising power over and governing the ...

Introduction In order to understand the cultural practices of other people and our own without being affected by ethnocentrism, we can use the guideline of cultural relativism. Cultural relativism is about understanding the cultural practices of other cultures by examining them from the contexts of those who practice them. Similarly, we can understand our cultural practices better by examining them from the context of others or outsiders. Ethnocentrism pushes a person to perceive his/her culture as superior to others, making it difficult to understand other cultures. This also makes it difficult to understand another culture from an emic perspective ...

Do you see the concept of the ‘new woman’ and ‘new man’ in our culture today?

When examining the template of either a new man or woman, it is important to consider that the boundaries constituting their identity is relatively fluid in nature and will ascribe more or less likely to the defined model as well as conforming more or less at different times depending on circumstance; therefore, the concept is wholly organic. In examining the new woman or man's identity generally and according to its marked boundaries, it can be suggested that the overall concept still holds a degree of relevance.

China and India’s Economy as a Neoclassical Growth Model.

Social Influences and Individualism

The early research carried on by Goffman seems to suggest that (removed from a social framework and social context) individuals do not have a genuine ability for self-expression however, later theorists believe there is a link between a desire for authenticity and individualization. The following will carefully examine these theories by looking at the work done by Erving Goffman and Harold Garfinkel, two of the most prominent researchers in this area (Travers, A 1994, 5). An interesting aspect of Garfinkel’s work is that he controversially suggested that sociology simply didn’t exist. He believed that it should be ...

Two of the most important existential philosophers have been Albert Camus, well known for both his novels and his philosophy, and Jean Paul Sartre, who, is aligned with the ideas of existentialism more than any other philosopher.
