kidnapping—the nonconsensual bride kidnapping is what is victimizing women and their families in Kyrgyzstan. To see if nonconsensual marriage actually existed and showed trends of increasing, researchers Russell Kleinbach, Mehrigiul Ablezova, and Medina Aitieva, conducted investigations and research in a small village in Kyrgyz that was large enough to provide a representative sample and small enough so that all women in the village could be surveyed (Kleinback, Ablezova, Aitieva, 2005). Other factors that determined why the north-eastern region village was chosen included strong ties between the researchers and the residents and the existence of current census data on the village—this provided the most accurate data for the research at hand. After research was conducted, data showed that, “the level of mutual consent in kidnappings in Kyrgyzstan is relatively low” in addition to this mutual consent data, is the date involving non-consensual marriages, “According to our respondents only 34 percent of kidnappings were conducted with the woman’s consent. Forty-six percent of the respondents said they were kidnapped through deception and 18 percent by physical force” (Kleinback, Ablezova, Aitieva, 2005). The research concluded that 66 percent of these marriges were non-consensual and showed an increase in the rate of non-consensual marriages—something that should cause great concern for the women in Kyrgyzstan…

"Adversities can foster hope, and resilience." This quote can be applied to many people's lives; points in their lives where they put out their best when they are faced with great challenges. I can apply this quote to my immigration from Kyrgyzstan to America. The reason I am describing this point in my life with this quote is because of the different adversities that have come with assimilating into a whole a new culture, country, and people. I first left for America with my family nearly a…

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights: Article 18 states that a person has the right to follow any religion that they please and change their religion freely. However, not every nation follows this article and Kyrgyzstan is one of those. This issue is plaguing the small Central Asian nation and has placed it under scrutiny. The people of this country should have the right to teach, practice, and worship the religion of their choosing. Map taken from…

EE:Establishing Evidence: Kidnapping alone is already against the law and actually so is bride kidnapping. E:Evidence: There are already laws in Kyrgyzstan that quite clearly state the fact that bride kidnappings or the kidnappings of women into marriage is illegal, but that does little to nothing from helping the women or stopping the men(Chung). A:Analysis: If there are already laws that make the kidnappings illegal, why does it still happen? There is no enforcement of the law and almost no…

disciplined initiative, and absence of making an independent decision made me gain better leadership traits as an unexperienced lieutenant and be in the future a sharp, confident, and successful leader. Although, my father advised me, before he died, to make the right decision upon a chosen career in order not to regret. My crucible experience that had several steps of events, influenced my entire career life, which occurred in the same area of responsibility. The first event of my crucible…

lover was torn apart by an angry tiger before his life had barely started. Secondly she would have to live with the fact that she single handedly caused him to get killed rather than start afresh in a new life. Remember though this princess was just as semi-barbaric as her father so if it meant that she could still have him all to herself maybe she would pick the tiger. I do not think that the tiger was picked though basically because of the quote written in paragraph two. I do not believe the…

Alexandria, Egypt. Other forms of Hinayana spread from that time to modern-day Pakistan, Kashmir, Afghanistan, eastern and coastal Iran, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Tajikistan. These were the ancient states of Gandhara, Bactria, Parthia and Sogdia. From this base in Central Asia, they spread further in the second century CE to East Turkistan (Xinjiang) and further into China, and in the late seventh century to Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan. These forms of Hinayana were later combined with Mahayana…
