The Second Kashmir War broke out in April of 1965 and lasted until September of that year. Ironically, the root of the conflict was not in Kashmir, it was farther south in the modern Indian state of Gujrat. After the First Kashmir War, the UN created a ceasefire line which was religiously observed by both nations in Kashmir, but in many other areas of the border, it was vague. The border in the Rann of Kutch along the Indian Ocean was highly disputed, and it led to many small skirmishes in the…

Multiculturalism act of 1971 The world views Canada as a multicultural and diverse country, but Canada was not always like this. Before Canada became a diverse country, it was a biased country. The people living here were discriminated because of their ethnicity and colour. People weren’t allowed to do things other people with different ethnicity can do. The white Canadians had rights that others did not have. The 1971 multicultural act happened because of Pierre Elliot Trudeau, changed the way…

in the presence of one another. (Evans, 1971) In a study conducted in 1924, Gordon Allport concluded that social facilitation and rivalry were both motivational factors when two individuals were competing against one another. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to use performance on a foam board as well as tonic heart rate, which is heart rate that is measured over at least a 30 second period to determine the validity of Allport’s hypothesis. (Evans, 1971) 2. Describe the two paradigms…

The first assessment to be considered is the purpose of the Alcohol Use Inventory (AUI). The AUI Assessment is to view the manner, temperament, and traits of alcohol consumption (Horn, Winberg & Foster, 1987). There are twenty-four scales that monitor alcohol levels into three categories, “primary, second-level, and third-level,” (Horn, Winberg, Foster, 1987). The assessment is primarily used for individuals who are entering treatment programs. (Horn, Winberg, Foster, 1987). The…

political and economic spheres in America and leads to many social problems in that society, especially inequality of wealth and political rights (Rawls, 1971).

Rawls argues that, generally, all social values, such as liberty, opportunity,…

coalitions in the Langur case, or seeming altruism (nepotism) can emerge from methodological individualism (Dawkins 1976, ). In order to do so socio-biologists redefined what exactly an “altruist” is and therefore what an altruistic act is (Trivers 1971), and drew distinctions between such an act and nepotism directed at ones kin (Hamilton 1964). “Altruistic behavior can be defined as behavior that benefits another organism, not closely related, while being apparently detrimental to the…

randomly throughout the reaches of the creek. However, if the system were to be deterministic then you would expect to find certain species in certain locations. Given the data found within Matthews et al. (2013) as well as data from Smith and Powell (1971), I believe that the fish community of Brier Creek, Oklahoma is deterministic in nature. Throughout my education in aquatic biology and ichthyology I have begun to realize that that the natural world is relatively predictable. Throughout my…
