Essays on Roots

Theater is thought to have started in the 6th century BC in Athens, as a form of classical entertainment (Goldhill 54). At this time, it was predominantly for entertainment, and also to create a catalogue of historical events, or depiction of mythology. This evolved into plays that were categorized as tragedy, comedy and drama, each in forms that we would readily recognize today, were all born out of that early tradition. However, over time, different countries adapted the western art form, to create formulas that more directly address their social concerns, or meet the social need for expression. In ...

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 ...

Artist: Alfons Maria Mucha

Movement: Art Nouveau Art Nouveau is an art movement from western Europe, which also became popular in the United States in 1880s and was one of the major trends until the First World War. Art Nouveau, which means New Art in French, is a modern art form, but it was inspired by natural world, forms and details of nature. Art Nouveau is often called ‘total’ art style, because it influenced all of the types of art, like architecture, interior design, graphic art and, of course, fashion, clothes, textiles, jewelry and so on (Gontar). Alphonse Mucha is a czech artist, ...

In recent years, there has been much discussion among sociologists as to the nature of crime and whether or not it is socially constructed. Generally, crime is an action or behavior that defies criminal law, and the fact that laws vary from place to place and between cultures automatically supports the argument that crime is socially constructed. Some interesting arguments focus on those who have power to make such laws and their motivations for doing so. There is a legal distinction between crime and deviance, in that while deviance goes against social norms, it does not break any actual ...

Great Law of Peace

The one aspect that stands out is the use of the great tree to symbolize strength and peace. Its roots spread out in four directions like a compass. People who wanted to maintain peace in the Five Nations were required to trace the roots of the tree to come together and enjoy the shelter of the big tree (Wampum par. 4).

Central to the views of Maria Stewart in her 1832 speech titled “Why Sit Ye Here and Die?” and those of Henry Highland Garnet as portrayed in his 1843 “An Address to the Slaves of the United States,” was the assertion that persons of African descent had to fight for their freedom. According to Stewart, any efforts made by “the advocates of freedom” stood a chance to be as in vain as the death of Christ for those who refused the “offered mercy” unless the free people of color made “some mighty efforts” to rescue their counterparts from slavery ( ...

Introduction Conscience is one of the most commonly experienced psychological faculty of an individual, but is also one of the least understood. For many years, little attention have been given towards understanding conscience; particularly on how it is shaped and who influenced the modern understanding of this concept. Nevertheless, conscience is an important phenomenon that requires significant attention primarily because it impacts all human judgment. The manifestation of conscience delineates man from other animals species as conscience is proof of man’s self-consciousness; an attribute that is only observable among human species. As a learned psychological faculty, ...

Describe the transactional and transformational leadership characteristics that Don Green and Michael Budman possess.

According to the available literature, some assumptions are held regarding the transactional leadership. Transactional leadership style believes that leaders are motivated by the reward and punishment the satisfaction of such leaders is on seeing the company excelling (Kurland, Peretz and Hertz-Lazarowitz 8). They also believe that social network works best with a clear and defined chains of command from the top. Again, they believe that the primary purpose of the subordinates in the organization is doing what they are instructed to do. Transactional leadership involves a situation where leader works by creating a clear structure of what should be ...

Introduction

Police power is considered as the government’s duty to develop and implement policies and legislations that are intended to benefit the public. Further, these laws are implemented, generally by law enforcers who makes it their responsibility to ensure that these laws are obeyed. Some of the duties of the police officers include the preservation of peace and order, detection and prevention of crime, and ensuring the fair and efficient administration of the law (U.S., 2003). As a means to give them the authority to uphold and administer these policies, there are laws which are developed to provide the ...

Climate change is a major environmental problem, causing concern to various corners of our ecosystem. It is a result of global warming, environmental pollution and inefficient use of our natural resources. Climate change has affected almost all living organisms, including plants, animals, microorganisms and undoubtedly, man. It poses a serious threat to our ecosystem and is listed as a major concern in the Grand Challenges of the U.N. for Millennium Development and Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (Garrett 490). A wide variety of its implications, have made climate change, an important topic for researchers. There has been more awareness among researchers ...

How the world shrinks

The primitive era saw the world coming together in the 15th and 16th century whereby there were a shift and movement of kingdoms all around the world. The example of Angola stands as an important one as it saw a movement of the Europeans into Angola and the surrounding areas. There was a better system of administration, judiciary, and management in the country after the Europeans entered the country, and it led to its betterment. To name the areas as primitive only means, there was a lack of available options for improving the societal conditions, and when the country ...

Before 1790, the American economy started to grow due to Alexander Hamilton’s activity. The most evident developments appeared within the domestic sector. His policy included funding of the internal, foreign, and state debts, as well as the foundation of the First Bank of the US. He also managed to establish a decent credit basis. However, during 1790-1860, such factors as alterations in transportation, communications, and agricultural production lead to tremendous growth in the whole US economy. Agriculturalists, land speculators, and merchants were considered as the main investors in transportation corporations. While merchants and speculators were investing money with ...

Mechanics function of the spine

The human body is meticulously designed with a complex and specialized skeletal system that helps not only provide support and structure for the body but enhances motion and stability. The spinal cord is the extension of the brain and it forms an essential part of the central nervous system. As people age the mechanics of the body are altered (NiosiOxland 2004). Degenerative processes are inevitable and as such, the facet joints, discs and vertebrae are affected. These degenerative issues of the spine include the degenerative disc disease, which is well known; others include Slipped discs, Spinal stenosis Osteoarthritis and ...

While previously the holistic development and wellbeing of the population of the United States of America has been thwarted by the social ill of racism, the modern era sees a different kind of problem that might be surmised to have found its root in the long dark history of racial discrimination in the country’s milieu. Legal steps and general awareness have ensured that racism is not practiced or advocated in the country in any manner. Nonetheless, the series of events where people of the black community have repeatedly come to be on the receiving end of undue violence ...

Corruption is a multidimensional phenomenon with economic, political and cultural aspects. Its causes can be a combination of economic, political and cultural factors. Its impact can permeate the economic, political and cultural spheres. Brazil, India and China are countries that belong to the BRICS or the organization of emerging economies. Corruption can hamper the economic growth prospects of these economies. A comparison of corruption in Brazil, India and China provides a deeper understanding of the historical roots of this problem and the implications on the future growth prospects of these countries.

Discussion 1

I define domestic violence as an abusive behavior that is used by one partner towards another one to gain the power or maintain it. Such behavior may also be aimed at gaining control over another person. There are lots of types of domestic violence, including physical, sexual, economic, emotional and psychological kinds of abuse (“Domestic Violence”). 2) I believe that knowing and understanding the definition of domestic violence can help victims to take measures and protect themselves. Therefore, it is very important to give comprehensive and overwhelming definition to the issue that would include every possible behavior against a ...

BUSINESS

It is quite certain that for ensuring the success of an organization, the workforce has to be motivated to achieve its goals. If the employees are not motivated, they will not be able to perform and yield results for the organization. Motivation is an intangible idea which makes the employee achieve the organizational targets in an efficient and effective manner. It is the core responsibility of the management to make sure that all the employee must feel motivated at work and they must come up with creative ideas to improve their motivation levels. Motivation could be achieved by several ...

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 ...

Introduction

There are periods in life when it seems that it is impossible to go on, rise from ashes, or simply continue a journey. This time may be characterized as a dark hour, a gloomy dream, or a “the light vanished from our golden sun” (Wilde 25). It is challenging to encounter with the most difficult circumstances and to have strength to overcome them. Not everyone has an inner will and power to overcome the barriers and find a guiding threat again. However, literature presents the readers with the invaluable gift of experience, inspiration, and guidance, which helps to continue ...

Introduction

I have often thought critical thinking is simply my opinion, or generating ideas and opinion through mental exercise, i.e. I can do critical thinking without external help or interaction. Yet, it is so different, because as I searched the literature and in studying in this course, I found that critical thinking involves the individual’s ability to use the mind actively to sense the surrounding environment and realize opportunities and potential hazards by generating innovative ideas (Ruggiero, 2009 as cited in Bruning, 2016). Critical thinking needs knowledge, and knowledge is learned and experienced. Precisely, critical thinking is borne out ...

Prejudice, a concept that proves to be is well and universally known across the world. The term embodies any disregard, misconception, preconceived opinions about something or other people based on factions of fallacy, misdirected beliefs, and opinions. Prejudice is independent of regions but is directly and purposely specific to given tenets and factions of people. In the United States, prejudice takes and assumes varied forms and angles. One of the TED talks sessions continued to shed light on topic with several speakers pointing that prejudice affects people of color such as blacks and Latinos, women, and the LGBT (lesbians, ...

Introduction

Even if music can be viewed as a universal language, music still differs from society to society largely due to the culture in which that specific music is associated in. In other words, every separate human society has their more or less unique variant of music, which contributes to the characteristic of their culture in general. For example, Latin Americans are commonly associated with Latino music, the hip-hop genre and the blues was commonly credited to the black culture, among others. One particular popular music of interest is the one that came from the Caribbean Islands, particularly the island ...

Abstract

Radio has definitely been one of the most significant technological devices for more than a century. From the moment of its invention in the early 1800s till new developments in recent years, radio has performed a lot of important functions. Throughout the history, radios helped to supply communication and provide entertainment to many cultures. More than one hundred years already, radio still remains a powerful force in American life that will also retain its potency for some time to come. This unique form of mass media has the potential to reach any people, even the illiterate ones. No matter ...

Western society (and to a lesser extent near-Eastern society as well) has felt the impact of the Classical world for thousands of years. The philosophy and political processes have all made their mark in one way or another, but it is the impact which Classical mythology has had on the world at large which is most well-known (or is at least more visible). From the use of classical imagery in famous paintings and sculptures, to the slightly less salubrious twisting of Greek fertility Gods into representations of Evil, classical mythology and imagery has saturated our culture from almost the ...

First concept that I want to discuss is Garveyism that played exceptional role in the development of Rastafarianism. Garveyism is a philosophy of Marcus Garvey, who is considered to be a visionary and messiah for Jamaican people. Garvey considered that African Americans and other black people – descendants of slaves, who were forcefully moved from Africa, had a right to return to their homeland. Garvey argued that people that do not know their history and past are like trees without roots; and the roots of black Americans were in African continent. He was a charismatic spokesman and leader and managed ...

Introduction

Postmodernism came to be in the 1950’s and began as an offshoot of the previously accepted modernist ideology (Stern 72). The main argument made in this paper is that the post-modernist approach to architecture was a representation of the effort by architecture to establish a voice of its own. This argument portrays architecture as a dynamic field, with the advancement of knowledge and technology shaping the outlook of the architects of a particular period. Postmodernism can, therefore, be perceived as an attempt by the architects to challenge the status quo in regards to architectural practice while meeting the ...

Introduction

Architecture as a discipline has evolved over time, with architects from different periods adopting unique approaches to architecture. In the 1950’s, the architectural world saw the introduction of the theory of the postmodern architecture . This came hot on the heels of the famous modernist approach to architecture, which had the support of various classical scholars and architects. The primary argument in this paper is the fact that the post-modernist approach to architecture was a representation of the effort by architecture to establish a voice of its own. This is built on the realization that architecture is a dynamic ...

Introduction

Brands have existed since ancient times, as evidenced by the fact that individuals have always used unique marks to distinguish their products from those produced by other individuals. However, the main reason for branding in ancient times was to prevent the theft of property. Despite the origins of branding, its main purpose shifted to enhancing the visibility of products as humans engaged in increased commercial activity with each other (Hampf and Lindberg-Repo, 2011, p. 1). Consequently, the concept of brand development arose. Brand development refers to the efforts taken to increase the success of a brand in the market ...

What makes a criminal tick? What motivates and drives them into the heinous psychopathic and irrational behavior towards other living things and property? Lombroso proposed a rather insidious theory into the making and identification of a criminal. He argued in his school of thought that there are biological and anthropometric traits associated with deviance and crime propensity in certain people which he described as atavisms. Lombroso continued that peculiarities in stigmata could be a sign of criminal attributes in person such as dropping eyes, wide ears, peculiarly oriented nose, arms longer in relation to the lower limbs among other ...

In this paper we will look at how the 1970s and the early 80s showed a resurgence of interest in painting. This was a result of suppression of visual pleasure that was present at the time in the dominant art practices of the 70s. There came up a movement of painters who came up with the neo-expressionism style that advocated for the freedom in painting, a style that became really popular with the people (Sandler, 1996). It started in Germany in the 60s spread through Europe and then America. So as to study this movement well, painters like Jean-Michel ...

Introduction For many centuries women were deprived of their natural rights to control their life and even body and yet the struggle for equal rights is still continuing. At some point, feminism acquired a negative connotation that people today associate with the fanaticism and misandry. It is quite difficult to explain why the movement that released so many women from their invisible prisons is criticized by the modern society. A lot of women have fought to overcome discrimination, prejudice, and stereotyping of womanhood by changing the laws, altering the views of the society, and fighting back their oppressors. In ...

Climate change is among the significant factors impacting ecological diversity on a worldwide scale. The growth of industries and the increasing human population globally have resulted in a rise in the volume of greenhouse gasses, which scientists have argued are the greatest contributors to the menace. The Florida Keys is one of the ecological treasures of the U.S. that continues to be impacted negatively by climate change and anthropogenic activities. This ecological treasure, which is located at the tip of the state of Florida, comprises about 1,700 islands that stretch for more than 200 miles to the west ...

(Author Name) (Course Name/Number) The Tavistock Model was originally developed at the Tavistock Clinic in London around the onset of the First World War It started as a classroom experiment for students studying infants, but soon became an accepted practice throughout the social science field as a means of observing infants, children, and adults. The model itself has deep roots in Sigmund Freud’s Psychoanalytical Theory and was developed as a collaboration between child psychoanalyst Esther Bick and Dr. John Bowlby. Because the concentration started as a means of observing the stages of emotional and mental development in children, ...

Projects have increasingly become an important component of many organisations today. In this sense, the project management occupies a progressive master role in the success of many organisations (Shenhar & Dvir, 2007). This means that the fruitful and appropriate delivery of the projects promotes the progress and the development of the humanity from the global perspective. This paper is about the analysis of the automated baggage system built by the BAE Automated System incorporated into a project at the Denver International Airport (Neufville, 2004). Ideally, the project was designed to cater for the teaming air passengers at the airport. While ...

Bell Hooks’ decision to narrate the story of a black girl from Kentucky who belonged to a working class background and how life at Stanford shaped her world view, indicates the emphasis that she places on returning to her roots and staying true to them. Her parents were deeply concerned about how being amongst the more ‘privileged, white students’ would influence the personality of their young daughter. Hooks highlights the fact that children from a small town like Kentucky, particularly the African American families maintained a close-knit community, in which basic communication as well as deep-rooted respect of elders ...

Abstract

Pinto bean is a popular plant in the United States and Mexico, so knowing how it grows is an important topic in the field of botany. One of the factors that influence plant growth is the soil condition in which the seeds are planted on. Based from the many studies conducted on pinto bean, as well as soil condition and plant growth, the amount of water in the soil is an important factor in the quality and production rate of the plant. Lack of water can negatively impact the growth of pinto bean, but some varieties of the plant ...

Modern governments have grown large excessively. Aspects of developments such as individual freedom and economic expansions that have been enhanced since a long time go keep showing their glimpses in the modern society. Such an understanding has brought the world into the belief that the economic beliefs, human trajectories on concepts, prudential strive for the future were once pressed from all the corners of the world in a similar pattern. The world, however, began to diverge from its pieces with Europe considered as the most significant divergence in historical accounts. Little has however been exposed as to why some ...

The article states that some prominent international personalities have claimed that the conflict in Syria has its roots in the long-running drought that the country has been experiencing. The drought has caused people to move toward the cities and other urban areas in search for livelihood. However, this theory has been set aside by many experts, averring that the civil conflict in Syria has been caused by several factors, among them the social and political conditions present in the country at the time of the conflict (The Guardian: Is Climate Change Really to Blame for Syria’s Civil War?). ...

Leadership in Action

The judiciary is one of the most important arms in a free and democratic society and in many states, its duties are well outlined in the constitutions. By structure, almost all constitutions design it as an independent body and operate within the requirements of the principle of separation of powers (Forsyth, 2015). A strong public image and reputation are crucial in the dispensation of its duty, and the decisions made culminate into a lasting effect on individuals and society. For instance, it could define public policy. Considering its significance, an incompetent and misleading system could produce far-reaching implications in ...

Culture and Society

Culture is a significant element in defining society. Culture refers to the shared or a form of refinement to which a group of people draws their behaviors and beliefs bringing people together with a common characteristic, and belief makes up a society. Over time the globe has been known to have multiple cultures and societies with different populations embracing different attitudes, values and beliefs in their daily lifestyles. An economy is the aftermath of the larger societal groups with cultural variables being the defining spark for the economic characteristics. The economy is embedded in social relations with Culture being ...

Q1. Explain the regulation of the cell cycle

Every cell is regulated by particular checkpoints to ensure that the daughter cells are exact duplications. This is to help guarantee that cell mutations are not passed on to the next generation of cells. In eukaryotic cells, there are three main checkpoints. These are points at which cell replication can be halted until certain conditions are met (Boundless, 2016). The first checkpoint is near the end of the G1 phase. It is here that DNA gets evaluated and checked for damage. If damage has occurred, it either gets corrected or gets prevented from moving on to the next phase ( ...

1.1. Early on, Dr. Vasella was able to identify that the company’s turnover rate is more than acceptable. It was becoming a problem for them to make people stay. He noted that it is not enough for the company to pay good money to their employees. They also must be able to solicit their commitment and drive for excellence at the same time. 1.2. One of the factors affecting this high turnover rate was the inability of the company to recognize talent for promotions within.

(1a) Charles Mills supports that white supremacist society has its roots both in the past as well as in present society. In societies such as the United States, history is littered with discrimination by whites against nonwhites. Additionally, white supremacist society could be seen during the Civil Rights era where whites believed nonwhites were not intellectually, emotionally, or physically the same as them and therefore there was a need for segregation of between the races. In present society, people still deal with a white supremacist society through issues like the one drop rule which was put into law at ...

The modern world is changing up so quickly, and getting connected with a really crucial speed. One of such sufficient processes is globalization. Globalization in simple terms is usually known as the process during which the world is transformed into a single unified system. At the end of the last century, globalization has become a hot topic for debates all around the world and it has not yet stopped. However, globalization is not a new process, since it implies the integration of the economic, cultural, political and religious spheres. Today globalization caused both positive and negative consequences and this ...

The elections are nearing, and the campaigns are still ongoing, and politicians are using hateful speeches and remarks to further their political ambitions. Individuals who use hate speech cite the first amendment; the freedom of speech. However, hateful statements have adverse effects on the peaceful co-existence of individuals from different communities and may also cause emotional damage as well as fear. Donald Trump has been making bold exclamations about immigrants in the Capitol, since his pre-election period, and for that he received a wide coverage and magnetism from the press.

Personal Reflection:

Abstract Cultural bias is a condition that can have great effect upon the education of a student. In Canada it has been seen that while immigrants are quite welcome and even encouraged to settle within the provinces, they are still seen as second-class in several ways. Two of those ways involve their place in education and their cultural identities. While Canada is renowned for its acceptance of many various races and peoples, it is not as well known for its quiet assimilation of its immigrants into the Canadian culture. Immigrants are not paid as much, do not always receive ...

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, ...

The American and European continent seem to be the most widely associated with multiculturalism and diversity. America is a country host to millions of people belonging to various backgrounds, ethnicities, religious and races who have somehow assimilated and learned to live together. There are many questions that have been raised against the term, whether multiculturalism is beneficial for a country or does it degrade its status. The problem is that a country is mainly known for a typical kind of people establishing a certain area and living in it. For example, they might be of the same skin color, ...

For many years, various American sports teams have been using the images of Native Americans as their nicknames, mascots, and logos. It has become the point of issue, as one people think that the use of Native American imagery is the sign of pride and honor, while others argue with them and state that it is nothing more than racism. The mascot controversy of the Florida State University has bigger scales but generally does not differ from the similar issues across the country. The main decision issues that appear in the case of the mascot controversy include the following ...

Introduction Although the U.S Federal government spends billions of dollars towards crime reduction policy initiatives, incidence rate of crimes such as homicides, burglary, smuggling, and gang violence is on the rise in the country. With the 9/11 terror attacks, the United States has become a major target for terrorist groups worldwide. In addition, the strong diplomatic stance taken by the Federal government against Islamic State (IS) terrorists also makes the country vulnerable to organized terror attacks. In this context, traditional policing may not be much effective to take proactive measures aimed at ensuring the safety ...

Cooking in Mayukkwayukwa has predominantly been done using stoves that are not energy efficient; therefore, the residents end up consuming a lot of firewood and charcoal in the cooking process. As a result of the collection of large volumes of firewood around the settlement area, the region is becoming deforested as more trees are cut for firewood and charcoal production. This has led to a shortage of fuel for cooking. Gathering firewood is generally women’s work, and they have to gamble with life-threatening risks such as forest and rape attacks during the firewood search process. At times, these ...

Compare and contrast the structure and function of the three simple tissue types: parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma.

Parenchyma cells refer to plant cells in the leaf that are usually alive at maturity. They have cell walls that are thin and flexible. They generally have a central vacuole that is large. They have a polyhedral arrangement. They are involved in carrying out photosynthesis, storage functions, and other metabolic functions. Most of these cells have the potential to undergo differentiation generating other cell types in certain conditions. For instance, when the plant is injured and there is a need for repairing and replacing organs. Their large central vacuoles enable them to store water, regulate intake of ions and ...
