truth. Throughout my essay I aim to establish what Mackie meant by this, I shall then go on to explore his ‘Argument from Relativity’ (more commonly known as the argument from disagreement) which he displays in his paper ‘The subjectivity of Values’ (1977). Finally, I shall investigate an important objection to the argument outlining how Mackie and other scholars respond to these critics. I believe that they respond sufficiently to the criticisms, critics appear to make fundamental…

Amarindra It is impossible to navigate through everyday life without encountering gendered social relations. This is because gender is the focus of many of society’s arrangements, and is one of the primary features of modern societal institutions (Goffman 1977).

Gender norms represent a collection of traditional beliefs held by a society or culture about how men and women…

Another problem with the NBC 1977 version is that the narrator is too casual and this…

wife and a mother. I am for protecting the rights of a man to be a man, a masculine, male man; a husband and a father. I am for protecting the rights of children to be babies and children and youth, to be nurtured in a home and in a family” (Packer 1977). The only setback with Packers wording in this quote is that it is not necessarily a right to be feminine, and a wife, and a mother: when equality for women is more of a privilege that defines their liberty, not their equality. This was a very…

sense of rootedness, Chinese people are more alien to take risk in life. Yi-Fu Tuan (1977), author of “American Space, Chinese Place”, mentioned, “The Chinese is rooted in his place” (p. 279). With this the author explained how tied citizens are to their places and also mentioned how they do not think about leaving or moving and do not share that kind of passion, like I do, for travelling or taking new risks (Tuan, 1977). However, considering my point of view, two strong characteristics of them…
