Fusfeld places an emphasis on two central concepts Polanyi utilized in substantive economics, and “great transformations” which have transmuted economic systems throughout history. Polanyi’s teachings offer a window into how societies have arrived at capitalism as well as how values have changed and transformed the concept of…

The kids at Reardon believed that the casino generated a lot of money, and they believed the federal government gives allowances to all native people. In reality, the casinos are mismanaged and it produces no revenue for the Spokane people. Linden Lark believed that if he reviewed enough about Indian law that he would not get caught for…

An ecosystem can be defined as a community of abiotic and biotic organisms interacting with their environment. All ecosystems function in a state of dynamic equilibrium which is the product of the interrelationship of the elements of an ecosystem: atmosphere, biosphere, hydrosphere and lithosphere. Ecosystems become at risk when they endure amounts of interactions and stress which exceed its carrying capacity. In order to counteract this, ecosystems must be managed effectively. Management can be…

and their ability of withstanding natural disaster was significantly lower than modern humans. Once there was a great change of climate, they had to change their living strategies to adapt to the environment, including the transformation from being nomads to cultivating primitive crops. Because of this, agriculture occurred and was established as a mode of human society and economy, which means that there must be a close relationship between it and the climate change.

focuses on the social and economic setting of the mid-eighteenth century. Drawing on a precious reposition of documents found in the royal archives, he presents in detail the traumatic interrogations of the accused—a tattered assortment of vagabonds, nomads and Buddhist monks—generalship under torture by rude magistrates. He goes to prove how the “scare” was simply a creation of folktales and concocted imaginations connected to the result of the queue clipping. The queue-clipping crisis allows…

There are two primary views of indigenous people by outsiders.
