Their business activities have led to serious environmental destruction and pollution, raising major concerns about the health and ...

Contemporary problems in the Guatemala Maya community

Introduction
The Maya people consist of a wide range of indigenous American people mainly of northern Central America and the larger southern Mexico. The overriding term ‘The Maya people’ is a collective term, designed to include a diverse range of an ethnic group belonging to the same geographic region and who share some to some extend some degree of similarities in their cultural and linguistic heritage.

. This essay on Orwell’s work in question will seek to examine the striking theme of guilt and shame as depicted by the author in his writing, as well as the painful, contradictory nature of his own feelings versus actions. Orwell, at the time of writing, was a British policeman in the country of Burma in south east Asia dominated by the rule of the British Empire, and here begins the first contradiction given his subsequent reputation as a crusader against such a political system. The essay will examine three aspects of the essay in relation to guilt and ...

Abstract

After conducting analysis of the literature, it is possible to provide the following classification of the managerial and medical approaches towards the drug and alcohol treatment of aboriginal women: drug treatment, development of the personal skills among the target population as well as practical implementation of the therapeutic strategies, which are mainly based on the cultural and social contexts of such women.
There is a considerable difference in terms of availability of such services for the Aboriginal populations and non-Aboriginal populations. For instance, those women, who are not referred as representatives of indigenous population, have an access to the ...

Charles Wilkinson and his famous book “Blood Struggle: The Rise of Modern Indian Nations” provide a brilliant description of the life of American Indians and how Indian tribes' could lose their sovereignty in the 1950s that was the turning point in the history of Indian nations.

In fact, the author provides the description of separate stories which prove how American Indians became the active creators of their own history and moved from dispossession and darkness to well being and flourishing. Wilkinson accurately demonstrates ...

Concentrating on Sri Lanka

(Name and A#)
Colonialism had long reaching effects on indigenous cultures, economic systems, literature, and religions. Of those four, religions were the most personal and the most stubborn to change. It was not until the late 18th and early 19th centuries that the British first contacted the Buddhist religion. For the British, it was a bit of a shock to find a civilization willing to accept their rule and yet, a religion so constant and resilient as to be able to reject Christianity while absorbing bits and pieces of the religion and the British culture into their own.

On September 13, 2007 the United Nations (UN) embraced an international instrument entitled the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). Consisting of 46 articles, this document was created to protect and promote the rights of the worlds’ indigenous populations that were not defended in other human rights legislation (University of British Columbia, indigenousfoundations.arts.ubc.ca).

Throughout this class, I have learned many different things about the aborigines and their history. When I began learning more things about them, it was hard to believe how much I did not know.

Though I am learning more about the world every day, through my studies and through my life experiences, the Australian aborigines were one portion of history that otherwise would have gone unknown to me, ...

Based on Davis and Menchaca’s research, what was the significance and effect of the casta system and the one-drop rule on contemporary society?
The Casta System was a racial order that the Spanish introduced through which Mexico’s Population came to be legally distinguished based on racial segregations (Menchaca, p. 62).

These short stories are both written in English and deal with the past history of Empire. However, they differ in significant ways as this essay will demonstrate and, in their differences, they exhibit very different views of European colonization. ‘An Outpost of Progress’ is very critical of the notion of colonialism, while ‘The Outstation’ sees colonization in a more benevolent light.

Conrad’s ‘An Outpost of Progress’ is set in the Belgian Congo towards the end of the 19th century. We can tell the colony is Belgain partly from the names of the characters (one is Flemish, the other French), ...
