Article Review

Natalie Wolchover in her article devoted to the issue of gun control develops her point through the dialogue prism. It means that the article does not itself support certain point of view, but insists on the need for the dialogue between two sides to reach the common ground. Ms. Wolchover bears in mind the tough situation in terms of the strong opposition to the gun control issues and, thus, supports the dialogue arguments. The author refers to the most-known scholars in the area of constitutional law from Harvard, who has a similar way of argumentation: firstly, the dialogue, then, ...

Protectionism or free trade restriction helps to counteract the rise in unemployment and social tension. Cyclical development of a market economy requires government measures to restrict access to the domestic market for foreign goods and services in the interest of a speedy overcoming of the temporary reduction in demand. However, no regulation of trade is not able to increase the scale of production so we cannot say that restricting trade with foreign countries is a good way to create more jobs in the US, “trade liberalization should reduce wage inequality” (Baker 430). The level of trade restrictions can be ...

In the age of slavery, white American society considered African people to be benighted heathens with the other skin color, body structure, and inappropriate traditions and culture. Such conclusions were drawn mostly upon the widespread idea about the superiority of Whites and the absence of Christianity in Africa.

For Americans, African people had continued to be barbarians who had come to America to be ...

As an immigrant to the United States of America, I understand better than many native citizens just how complicated cultural identity can be. To someone who was born in this country and has lived here all her life, it might be difficult to understand that an individual's experiences are profoundly shaped by the culture where she grows up. The time I spent in Guyana as a young person gave me a strong personal identity and a powerful belief in God, both of which have affected how and why I learn. I was born in the South American country of ...

Worries about a decline in the birth rate are nothing new, at least in many developed nations. As early as 1909, Hoffman made it perfectly clear that a love for babies was not the reason that some in the U.S. fretted over the declining number of births. Rather, it was concern over the decreasing rate of births among “native white married women” while the “rate of reproduction [was] materially higher among the foreign element” (p. 676). Similar concerns are in evidence today in places such as Israel, where the comparatively high rate of births among the Arab population has ...

Historical research has demonstrated that "race" has dependably conveyed a bigger number of implications than negligible physical contrasts; without a doubt, physical varieties in the human species have no importance aside from the social ones that people put on them. Today researchers in many fields contend that "race" as it is comprehended in the United States of America was a social instrument created amid the eighteenth century to allude to those populaces united in frontier America: the English and other European pioneers, the vanquished Indian people groups, and those people groups of Africa acquired to give slave work.

In attempting to gather data, my task was to ask at least ten people the question “do you prefer elevators or stairs in a five-storey building, and why is that?” I found that the actual data gathering was much harder than I had anticipated – I tried to get the attention of around thirty people, with most of them ignoring me!

More specifically, the culture of racism is largely influenced by geopolitical imagination and socio-political antagonism.
