INTRODUCTION Underlying Adams’ quote is the important question as to whether society is progressive and has positive implications for humans, or whether its implications are negative and corrupting. Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Émile Durkheim are two political theorists who battle in their writing to determine what is bad and what is good about society. This essay will consider how progressive or corrupting society is and in what ways, according to Rousseau and Durkheim. The essay will explore…

1. The Wall Street Crash, otherwise known as Black Tuesday, occurred on October 29, 1929 (Grossman). It was caused by wealthy buyers continuously buying stocks as prices continued to rise, inducing confidence in investment. If these investors had not contributed money as immensely, the Great Depression may have never occurred. Others also loaned money from banks to take advantage of the growing stock market. Nevertheless, when the stock market crashed, all of that investment was lost, and on…

The kinetics of the reaction between peroxomonosulphate with Lactic acid was studied in the presence of Mn(II) at alkaline pH. The reaction followed first order with respect to peroxomonosulphate. The rate of the reaction was studied under pseudo first order condition and found to increases with the [Mn(II)] and lactic acid. Thermodynamic parameters were calculated and reported. Based on the results a rate equation, kinetic scheme and a most probable mechanism has been predicted. Keywords: Alpha…

In the book, The Way We Never Were: American Families and the Nostalgia Trap by Stephanie Coontz, the author deconstructs various types of stereotypes and myths embodied by television shows that romanticize family life and gender roles. Coontz (1992) states that these idealizations promote the “traditional family” myth which she describes as “an ahistorical amalgam of structures, values, and behaviors that never coexisted in time and place” (p.9). The notions derived from this myth are a…

statistically just as likely to engage in delinquent behavior when compared to the markedly different Israeli culture and method of parenting. George De Vos argued that Japanese child rearing methods relying solely on negative reinforcement leads to dependence on maternal approval and bottled up emotions. Despite japanese culture plausibly increasing the rate of introversion and other traits that may be valued less in western culture, the values instilled in japanese culture are not pernicious…

3. Results and discussion 3.1. Effect of pH on the percent extraction values of Sn(II) by SbS-DET. The effect of pH of reacting species such as metal ions and ligands for the formation of metal complexes is known to play a significant role in their removal and extraction processes [24]. To evaluate and identify the possible contribution of pH value of metal ion on the SbS-DET process for the formation of Sn(II)–(8HQ)2 complex via complexation and removal of Sn(II) from aqueous…

sufficient modern energy service will increase human development; starting with education, health, clean environment, drinking water, enterprises, transportation, lighting, heating, cooking, mechanical power for agriculture, and grinding/milling. The correlation between these factors and human development were critiqued in a chart, which I thought was appropriate as it was easy to comprehend, but very thoroughly explained. Conversely, I believe the table was biased in declaring their…

Tapping into insecurities, ‘Recovery champions’ have an important and vital place in treatment by inspiring service users into change.

The value of…
