While the concept of race is today clearly recognized as fictitious, the term itself has taken an altogether new reality as a cultural denotation. More specifically, the culture of racism is largely influenced by geopolitical imagination and socio-political antagonism. The new political order referred to as “Empire” is a social frame work that posits “the inferiority of an “Other” based not in biology but in cultural differences and their insurmountability” (Semati, 257). Semati argues that ‘Brown’, once signified exoticism, but refers to menacing ‘Other’ today. The Brown in this case (in Semati’s article) refers to the Muslims of ...

Since the dawn of our human civilization, people have been trying to find the most effective way of building their behavior. Historically, the patterns of people’s activity have been directly connected to the society itself. Therefore, the social and political utility of the human operations is one of the determining factors. As a result, the behavior of the community, formed by the patterns of personalities, has become an extremely complex system of reasons and consequence. Hannah Arendt addresses the topic of the human being’s behavior in the context of the political history. The Human Condition is her ...

Writing a research proposal can be a daunting task if one fails to approach it in a well-prepared manner. In writing research proposals, there are major checkpoints that need to be considered to ensure that the set objectives in the proposal are met. They include: Defining the problem and understanding the context, researching and consulting with experts, and synthesizing and communicating (Schutt, 2015). Defining the problem and understanding the context works as a roadmap to defining the project. Once completed, one is in a better position to develop a research plan and proceed to the next phase of the ...

The countries and the world at large are facing many different crises currently. Different experts have come up with ways to predict the occurrence of different crisis in the near future.

In your own words, give the scientific definitions for ‘hypothesis’ and ‘theory.’ What is the difference between the two terms, and what is the difference between the scientific meaning and the way these words are commonly used? (6 points) Scientific hypothesis is some testable claim that aims to explain observed phenomena which were not previously explained by the scientific theories. Scientific hypothesis is formulated to be further tested experimentally. Scientific theory is a set of propositions which explains some natural phenomena and is verified experimentally. Technically, scientific theory is a hypothesis or several hypotheses repeatedly confirmed through experiment. Scientific ...

Abstract

The most crucial goal that has been targeted in all research studies in the past few years has been toward prevention of problems. The scientific method is a stringent and proven procedure, which can be used to determine the most probable evidence to back up an environmental phenomenon. The proposition is usually made in a cause-and-effect phenomenon. Such a proposition is known as a ‘hypothesis’. The method used for testing the hypothesis is termed ‘experimentation’. This procedure is comprised of five elementary and significant steps. The most salient aspect that renders the scientific methods most popular is the fact ...

Abstract

The field of Nanoscience has evolved due to the other advancements in the other fields of study such as the Nanotechnology.

It is the foundation on which the Magnetic Nanoparticles have been embedded. MNP is nanoparticle that has the magnetic manipulation ability. Thus, this paper focuses on the study of the Magnetic Nanoparticles especially how they are formed or synthesized and ...

In the mid-nineteenth century classical school of political economy was in crisis, as its theory was based on the interpretation of cost values and could explain some of the pressing problems of the economy. The weakest point of the classical school was that it was poorly focused on the subject-user, for which production takes place. The opinion of the classical school was confined to the manufacturer. An exit of the crisis was found by the marginalists. This direction of economic thought emerged in the last third of the XIX century in the center of this system is subject to ...

The Christian Bible and Islamic Quran chare a surprising number of similar themes and ideas as a result of their shared religious heritage and birthplaces; an example of this is found in the Bible’s “Sermon on the Mount” parable from the Mathew Gospel and the Quran’s “Lord of Mercy”. It is important to note that the Lord of Mercy referenced by the Koran can include a number of passages, as Allah is directly references as the Lord of Mercy many times; unless specified otherwise, this report will refer primarily to the opening of the Koran for simplicity. ...

Appendixes 18 Introduction France has been debated on their expatriates’ citizen lately due to the expansion of expat workers. It is seen negatively as some politics state that it is a “lose of brains” for the country because of the crisis and fiscal pressure of the government (Biacabe & Robert, 2014). The French system is often criticized due to the high risk that entrepreneurs are facing when they open their business in France. For instance, as Jean Tirole who awarded the Nobel Prize in economic, explained the French labour ...

Problem Statement

There are a number of reasons, defined by the ethical as well as the economic and the political scenes, for the non-diminishing interest in addressing the gap between the rich and the poor. "The rich get richer and the poor get poorer" is an aphorism, which outlines the major views on economic inequality and the criticism, seen in academic and business literature, towards the philosophy of free market and capitalism in general. One of the principal works, laying the foundation for the discussion, is the work by Thomas Piketty, Capital in the Twenty-First Century (2014), who places the idea ...

The Policy Process on Environmental Issues

It is very obvious that the world is currently experiencing many different environmental problems nowadays. One of the most pressing issue, is the issue on Climate change. Climate change is affecting the world and its inhabitants in many ways. It is a phenomenon by which the world experiences drastic and unusual changes in its climate and seasonal patterns, due to pollution and Greenhouse gases trapped in the earth’s atmosphere. This, in return, causes much more harm to the earth and its inhabitants. Climate change has had a lot of consequences that ...

The concept of "social brain" is one of the challenging and advanced concepts of the modern neuropsychology. In addition, the "social brain", as a concept, forms a completely new approach to the study of social psychology and brain pathologies. Research and development of this concept contributes to the discovery of the social and psychological development of a person. The thematic justification of this study is important because it allows tracing the relationship between the social cognition and social behavior of a person, which is basic in the context of psychology, sociology, and neuropsychology. The development and use of the " ...

Cognitive impairment is one among the major health issues concerning the increasingly aged population around the world.

Introduction When considering the characteristics of the crime as relatively independent phenomena one can understand this phenomenon as socially dangerous one. At the same time, crime is only an element of the public events. Existing and functioning in society, it permeates all different areas and various public attitudes. From this perspective, crime is a social phenomenon, which could be discussed qualitatively. Consequently, this assignment is aimed at analysis of the teaching dataset of British Crime Survey 2007-2008.

Crime is a social phenomenon, which is not only ontological, but epistemological. It generated all of the conditions of social life. This ...

According to Christopher Bader, Joe Baker and Frederick Carson Mencken in Paranormal America: Ghost encounters, UFO sightings, Bigfoot hunts, and other curiosities in religion and culture (2011) research shows that “more than 2/3 of Americans have paranormal beliefs with this being manifested in their penchant for movies with paranormal themes. This statistic is not alarming since evidently the paranormal and the supernatural have been a part of human culture since the beginning of time. In fact, in most religions paranormal experiences are either commonplace, or show up without alarm to the persons practicing that particular religion. While persons without ...

The definition of midlife is literally a point at the middle of a person’s life. ‘The concept of ‘crisis’, in mid-life and at other times, implies a rapid or substantial change in personality, which is dislocating with respect to one’s sense of identity (Freund & Ritter, 2009, p. 583). Thus, the best definition of midlife crisis is a sense of crisis situation that one experiences around middle age driven by a sense of diminishing youth and the loss that accompanies this. The question really arises about the validity and existence of the Midlife Crisis. The essay will delve ...

2A. Appraising Quantitative and Qualitative Research

Quantitative Study One source of bias during data collection is the use of self-report data (Polit & Beck 2012). Chivers et al. (2001) obtained data through the SF-36 and Beck depression inventory which required the patients to answer questionnaires. If they failed to give accurate answers, it would have affected the validity of the findings. The study design also allowed patients to receive other clinically appropriate treatments that were beyond the study protocol (Chivers et al. 2001). Additional treatments are confounding variables but their influence on the study outcomes was not estimated in the statistical analysis. This reduces confidence in ...

The relationship between the personal and the social is one of the greatest problems that humans face when they are in society. Every culture has attempted to tie people together, something that has always been controversial. One of the most difficult phenomena that scientists and philosophers have had to explain is the propagation of emotion between people. In this sense, the Tavistock model attempts to explicate the induction of emotional states in others through projective identification. It is important to contemplate such a process because it distorts reality not just for one person, but for others as well. For ...

Thomas Kuhn, who was once a physicist, now is regarded as one of the most important historians and philosophers of science. His account of science, paradigms and scientific revolutions described in his magnum opus The Structure of Scientific Revolutions is perhaps the most notable and studied document in the field of philosophy of science and is also the main subject of this work. In his historical account of science, Thomas Kuhn distinguishes four main milestones or stages, of which the last three are cyclical in their nature. They are pre-science, normal science, crisis, and the scientific revolution. Pre-science is ...

The scholarly world has struggled to come up with a definition of the essence of architecture. The critical question is where the emphasis of architecture should be placed; whether on the functionality of the designs or the impact, architecture has on the people. The writings by Pérez-Gómez and Norberg-Schulz, look to make an effort to shed some light on this debate. According to the two authors, architecture as a form of art should tone down the emphasis placed on functionality, while putting more emphasis on translating human reality in architectural work. I agree with the position taken ...

Women and gender studies

Gender studies - the practice of interdisciplinary research using the cognitive capabilities of the social theory of sex (gender) for the analysis of social phenomena and its changes. The psychoanalyst Robert Stoller worked at the University of California he has introduced into science the term "gender" in 1958, which means social manifestations of belonging to a sex or a "social sex". In 1963, Robert Stoller spoke at a psychoanalytic congress in Stockholm. He presented a report on the gender self-awareness. His concept was based on the separation into biological and culture study of sex. The scientist believed that sex ...

The main ideas Gall et al. are communicating in chapter 1 is that evidence-based practice is a key to progress in all the fields of knowledge and practice, especially in human-centered disciplines such as psychology, medicine, and education. The authors fairly note that while evidence and research have been widely used in natural sciences and technology, the field education just seems to be missing from the overall picture of human progress. The problem is not in that there is no research in this field but that the results of the research do not find application in real life. This ...

Hebdige in his publications argues that the styles of youth subcultures challenge dominion, hegemony as well as social norms. It does this through symbolic forms of resistance which include music and clothing (Hedbige 408). In particular, he lays focus on the evolution of styles in sub cultures. These styles include rockers, punks as well as skin heads. Often, they are treated as threats to public order. Although Williams’ approach lays focus on the concept of ‘subculture’ theory as a viable way of analyzing collective identity, his analysis differ significantly from Hebdige’s approach. This is particularly evident when it ...

Introduction

Cultural memories, as well as cultural identity, are two closely related phenomena that are part of every cultural setting in the world, are assimilated amongst generations in unique ways. Cultural memory entails the elements (Stowe, 1982); both physical and virtual those are passed down generations and are a way of giving historical meanings or origins of certain cultures. Literary publications, such as Uncle Tom’s Cabin, sought to change how cultural memory and cultural identity were perceived, regarding the African American culture. Therefore, cultural memories occur in different forms. For example, an individual from a given culture may have ...

The human brain is the most complex part of the human body that is very hard to understand. Our brains behave in a way that neuroscientists and psychologists have never understood. Its ability to control body functions and consciousness is one of the most challenging section that these individuals are still struggling to figure out. The human brain capacity of 1350 cc and it is made up of a very complex network of neurons that develop during the last three months of development (The Function of the Human Brain, 2016). The way we perceive the world around us is ...

Despite the fact that both the United States and Brazil have a history of the institution of slavery, each country documented a different reaction to the emancipation of those in bondage. Racial relations among Brazilians were significantly different in comparison to the documented experiences of African Americans residing in the United States after the abolition of slavery. For instance, while African Americans became subject to discriminatory laws that included Jim Crow Laws and Black Codes, Brazil did not experience the same form of government-imposed racism. In other words, legislations did not institutionalize racism among the people of Brazil; however, ...

Book Censorship

Despite the fact that the First Amendment in the U.S. Constitution provides legal protection for the freedom of religion, speech and press, modern American history as well as its democratic façade have been compromised greatly by numerous cases of book censorship and bans, particularly in educational institutions. Thereby, the case of Kurt Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse Five is only a drop in the ocean of shameful censorship policies. As Vonnegut’s seminal work was banned in schools across the United States and as the Drake School Board set several books on fire, the prominent American writer whose books are ...

Observation is the act of learning about and investigating a specific area of interest. When we make observations, we notice phenomena that we can readily explain, as well as phenomena that defy explanation. When we observe something that we can’t explain and that we wish to understand, or when we have a theory about the conditional behavior of the system or object we are observing, we are led to ask a question that we can answer by conducting purposeful research. The research question should make the goal and the course of the research clear. It should not be ...

Introduction

Much recent publicity surrounding climate change has focused mostly on global warming, but little direct correlation has been given in the media with regard to the impacts that environmental pollution has on climate change, and also on human health. Although studies of pollution and the environment have been carried out since the time of the Industrial Revolution, it only relatively recently that attempts to measure environmental on a global scale have been undertaken. Environmental pollution is a major cause of global concern, not only for the effects that it has on the physical environments, but also for its potential ...

The Psychoanalytic Interpretation of Society by S. Freud

Besides the fact that Sigmund Freud is the founder of psychoanalysis and many other important psychological theories, this great psychoanalyst also had his own unique views on society and the processes within it. Most of his theories related to such concepts as "libido", "groups", and "crowd" form rather a strange and ambiguous interpretation of society. Freud hardly distinguished the individual from the context of the whole society and divided the society itself into the crowd, or the groups, which is compared with the primitive horde. This radical disregard for the human qualities of the individual, as a separate and ...

Introduction

The essay will compare the skepticism of two ancient philosophers concerning popular religious, spiritual and superstitious beliefs. The first philosopher we will look at is Lucretius who was a well-educated Roman popularly known for his poem “On the Nature of Things.” The second philosopher is Wang Ch’ung who was born in China and studied at Loyang academy in the capital. He is said to have had remarkable memory and gained a lot of knowledge in Chinese literature. The two philosophers did not believe in the religious beliefs and came up with arguments to convince the masses that they ...

Introduction

In the field of social and psychological research, the development of research tools to measure phenomena by attributing quantitative values to them and developing them into continuous variables is a crucial part of data collection and understanding of the phenomena. The reliability and validity of the measuring instruments thus developed is of utmost importance in establishing the value and capability of the constructs. We all can relate to our personal or friends and peers’ childhood experiences of anxiety as a child. The children are more vulnerable as a result of anxiety situations as they have little or no idea ...

Modern technologies make it possible to communicate interactively with other people all around the globe, despite distances and time zones-related differences. Nowadays the Internet has already become a ‘background part’ of everyday life, penetrating a variety of communication-related areas, such as work, entrepreneurship and interpersonal relations. Instant messaging and self-reporting are especially important for modern children, who perceive these phenomena for granted, along with telephones and TV sets (Kraut et al. 1017-1018) Moreover, the Internet significantly increased cooperation opportunities for colleagues, living in different cities and countries, brought together the representatives of different cultures (e.g., via special interest groups) ...

Descartes argues that there are two equal world beginnings, i.e. "mind or mental substance, and body or physical substance" (Philosophy of Mind, 2016, p. 5). The main property of the first beginning is the thought, while the second one operates with the length. Both phenomena coexist in the world, moreover, these two principles are everlasting, and none of them dominates the other. However, Descartes says that God created these substances, which means that his dualism is approaching idealism, as dualism "could be based upon religion, belief in life after death, or belief that people are more valuable than mere ...

Pain is a commonly experienced phenomenon among patients. Despite the commonality of the phenomenon of pain, it is a complex concept to describe and explain. There are different types of pain that are diagnosed using different metrics in primary care –somatic, neuropathic, and visceral pain, depending on the location of the pain on the body. Pain can also be acute or chronic, based on the length of time that a patient has experienced the pain. Due to the complexity of the phenomenon of pain, it is poorly understood in the nursing practice. Performing a concept analysis of pain is ...

The whole universe is ready to present its breathtaking wonders and reveal all mysteries to those who are ready to experience the unknown and set off on an unforgettable and adventurous journey. The biggest mystery is surely the creation of the ...

Organizational communication is inextricably related to the phenomena of social life that entails three aspects, namely axiology, epistemology, and ontology. Epistemology is related to general problems of knowledge and thinking in particular. Ontology refers to the way of thinking about the nature of being, while axiology is connected with values. Ontology studies the nature of existence or, more narrowly, the nature of the phenomena that people seek to know. Understanding the nature of cognition and the processes by which it is carried out is essential for any scientific knowledge. It is worth noting that epistemology and ontology are inseparable, ...

For centuries they have been tormented, tortured and isolated, considered as outcast of the society. Witches, sorcerers, shamans or magical doctors have been misunderstood and burned at the steak for heresy, because their practices overpassed the human understanding. Through a combination of herbal mixes or psychedelic substances plus a thorough understanding of the human mind, the magical methods of these traditional practices have been analyzed across centuries (Haule 17). While in the modern societies the conventional science, medicine or human psychology are largely preferred, discoveries show that shamanic, witchery, sorcery or magical practices have pragmatic basis and scientific value ( ...

The periodic table of elements, by far, stands among the most notable discoveries in the history of chemistry. Nowadays, probably everyone who has ever heard about chemistry heard about the periodic table of elements. Its implications on the scientific world are so enormous that it has even leaked out to the general public and have become associated with the chemistry itself. This is not surprising considering the scientific strength of this instrument. Using the periodic table, many characteristic properties of the elements can be predicted and many phenomena can be explained. This discovery put so much scientific knowledge together, ...

Introduction The case study method and the phenomenological study are two prominent methods of qualitative research design. The case study method involves an attempt to understand an issue or a problem using a case as an illustrative instance to elucidate features of a larger class of similar phenomena (Gerring, 2004). In contrast, a phenomenological study is used to describe particular phenomena, or the appearance of things, as a ‘lived in experience’ (Penner & McClemont, 2008). A phenomenological study is not aimed at explaining or discovering causes. Instead, its main aim is to arrive at the rich essence of experience lived ...

Interest in the use of ultrasound in medicine and biology may be explained by the possibility of using ultrasonic waves active influence on living tissues and by the possibility of obtaining information about a certain tissues themselves. Ultrasound diagnosis is an extremely effective method of inspection that allow to quickly and safely evaluate the condition (structural and functional) of many organs and systems: heart and blood vessels, liver and biliary tract, spleen and pancreas. Ultrasound has a diverse and powerful biological effects. This is manifested in the form of mechanical, thermal, chemical and physical phenomena. Increasing the temperature of ...

Nowadays social groups and individuals are not perceived as a closed and self-sufficient phenomena. They are included in the general relationship and interdependence. Universal interconnection, interdependence and relationships are extremely complicated by contradictory processes of globalization. The role and influence on the formation of national consciousness of the cultural self-identity should be borne in mind that national identity is implemented at two levels: the social (public, community at large) and personal (personal) (Bem, 1967). The need for self-determination has always been an important human need. Erich Fromm believed that this need is rooted in human nature (Fromm, 1939). Social ...
