Even then, scientists and politicians covered the unequal position of women and their role and place in society. Feeling dominant male superiority over women, Socrates said: "Three things can be considered happiness: you're not a wild animal that you are Greek, not a barbarian, and that you are a man, not a woman.” Since that time almost two and a half thousand years have passed; however, the problem is still relevant.…

    Naomi Klein argues that what happened in Iraq, and is part of a broader trend globally, is in many ways the opposite of economic and human development. Explain what she means, provide examples from Iraq, and argue EITHER in support of her analysis, or against her analysis. The argument presented by Naomi Klein in her work, “The Shock Doctrine” is that the privatization of the government in the form of disaster capitalism, as seen after the Invasion of Iraq, is counter to economic growth and human development.1 Disaster and crisis was used to swiftly implement the radical privatization that had been slowly creeping into government during the 90’s. This is mirrored dramatically by the War in Iraq and the events leading up to it.…

Pesticides despite their short term benefit have the possibility of wreaking havoc on the ecosystem lasting for generations. The lack of a learning curve makes this predicament especially dangerous. Humans are often myopic when it comes to the consequences of their actions and proceed without a clue as to the damage they are incurring on their surroundings, near and far.…

    I think it was very courageous of Susan Hamovitch to make a documentary of her family’s most painful, protective secret at that time.

It must have been not easy for Susan, nor for her family, to reveal their family’s secret to the world as the mother said to Susan when she told her her intention of making a documentary of their family secret “well, you’ve certainly dropped a bombshell.” It was a bombshell for the family because of what they kept secret of their whole life was about to be revealed to the world. The secret of the family was Alan, who never developed the ability to speak as his…
