In 2009, a small town in Yemen called al-Majala was at the mercy of a drone attack that killed 41 civilians, including 21 children. Not even half of that number was confirmed to be militants. The people in this country can only imagine what it is like to have death flying above them, but the innocents in the Middle-Eastern countries do not have to imagine.

Alternatively, it is often argued that with digitalisation, our privacy is somewhat in question, Ashford, W. (2016, May 18). The rise of “Whistleblowers” Like Julian Assange and Edward Snowden raise questions as to whether there is a general distrust in the population of intelligence agencies or whether a few self-righteous do-gooders have decided to play messiah.

Health care for the mentally ill in Australia is faced with various challenges within individuals, families, communities and broader society. The current definition of health is a complete state of mental, physical and social well-being and not just the absence of disease, (WHO, 1948 as cited in Huber et al., 2011, p. 1; Bowler, 2008 as cited in Fitzpatrick, 2010, p. 61).

ethnopharmacological approaches and modern medicine to treat patients in a culturally sensitive manner. Although the “The Chains of Mental Illness in West Africa” does little to discuss how the biomedical centers truly accept local knowledge the quote from Julian Eaton, the global mental health adviser for the CBM, suggests that progress is being made. Wherein he states that “West African families are as practical as anyone else, whatever their beliefs about mental illness”. This seems to…

In the following pages, I will be discussing the Australian social problem of childhood obesity, what it is and whom it affects. I will be looking at this problem from both a Functionalist and Marxist stance, taking into account the social, political and economic viewpoints of this social issue. I will also look at two different ideas to help combat childhood obesity. Individuals that are obese, have an excessive amount of body fat (Germov, 2014, p. 214). At present, the assessment tool most…

Without this smoking ban, smokers in public housing don’t just put their own health rat risk, but they…
