Polarization

they think of when they hear the term polarization? Congress is in a constant battle between parties, and this, in turn, keeps us in an almost constant state of gridlock. Susan Page, Jim Douglas, Brian Resnick, and Norman Ornstein have all written articles explaining political polarization, civil discourse, or the solutions to these problems. In Susan Page’s article “Divided We Now Stand,” she mainly focuses on the citizen aspects of the political polarization argument. Similarly, Jim Douglas in…

become extremely dysfunctional over the course of the last few years according to many professional writers. Elements that contribute to a defective Washington are polarization, tribalism, and the inflexibility of politicians. Susan Page, author of “Divided We Now Stand” explains that many Americans are aware of the increasing polarization, a stance on an issue defined by a party, and that citizens believe that politicians are more polarized than them. However, Page argues that voters are to…

definition of polarization, the polarization resistance was corresponding to the real part of the resistance when the frequency was zero. As seen in Fig.8, when the frequency was zero, the two constant phase elements (CPE1 and CPE2) were infinite value. Thus the circuit was equal to a series circuit of three equivalent resistances. In this case, the polarization resistance in the equivalent circuit was equal to the sum of the three equivalent resistances. The value of polarization resistance…

Johnathan Haidt’s Ted Talk, “The Moral Roots of Liberals and Conservatives”, tackles the problem of polarization in the world in a very interesting way. Haidt looks at the ideology of liberals and conservatives through the lens of morality. In doing so he is able to define it by five factors care/harm, fairness/reciprocity, group/loyalty, authority/respect, and purity/sanctity. He finds they are about equal in care and fairness with liberals valuing it a bit more. Conservatives are way…

physical punishments. The abuse quickly became so severe that Zimbardo prematurely terminated the study after only six days. The Stanford Prison experiment exemplifies how, given unrestrained power and with the group dynamics of groupthink and group polarization at play, good men can be lead to commit evil actions very…

author's researches. In this sense, we can say that this article contributes the psychology literature by expanding theories and putting theories into practice. Sandra Bem proposed different concepts such as gender polarization and she classifies it two parts which are functional polarization and gender- specific language. Actually, while grouping…

a purple America and distorts the data as blue states and red states are very different from each other. By doing this, ideologies are jumbled together and lost in translation. Even when doing this, Fiorina’s data still shows that there is some polarization caused by ideology. For instance, in Table 3, 44 percent of respondents in blue states and only 32 percent of respondents in red states strongly believe that “Immigrants strengthen our country”. This means there is at least a 12 percent…

Electrical Properties AC Conductivity, Ac Resistivity, Dielectric loss, and Dielectric constant are electrical properties and measured as a function of frequency. AC Conductivity and Resistivity AC resistance (ρac) was recorded by LCR meter model 4275 in the frequency range 1MHz to 3GHz. AC conductivity was determined by using the value of Ac resistance. As we know, Ac Conductivity is reciprocal of Ac resistance can be calculated by the relation; ac =1/ρac (6) The variation of AC…

These outdated and unclear policies and practices have led to political corruption and confusion. There is also an increasing sense of political polarization, and Americans are encouraged more now than ever to take extreme stands with regards to their political beliefs and practices. The combined contemporary issues of political corruption and polarization…

The forward osmosis (FO) process is an emerging separation/desalination process. It is rapid process compared to other membrane processes such as reverse osmosis. The physical phenomenon of forward osmosis (FO) can demonstrated as the motion of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane due to difference in osmotic pressure driving force through the membrane. The membrane enables only water molecules to pass through when salt molecules are rejected. The forward desalination technique…
