Essays on A Question

Morality and Abortion

1. Is abortion in any sense a moral question, or is it purely a question of individual rights? One strongly believes that abortion is both, a moral issue, as well as a question of individual rights. According to one’s research, abortion falls within the ethical and moral realm in terms of the curtailment of life of the unborn . Accordingly, the authors asserted that “pro-life activists make the cunning argument that abortion is equivalent to murder, and murder is not ethical. Therefore, abortion is unethical” . However, abortion is also a question of individual rights since the woman carrying the ...

Tennyson, “The Eagle”. Discussion Question: How is the solitary eagle’s strength emphasized in the first stanza? Does the reader “join” the eagle in the second stanza? How or how not?

This is also achieved by the personification of the predator, as the author uses pronouns “he”, and “ ...

CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE ROLE OF CRISIS IN INDUCING POLICY CHANGE

Introduction Most nations make policies after they enter serious crisis. There is a general notion that a critical problem requires a critical solution. Thus, nations that came under Nazi or Japanese attack in the eve of the Second World War declared a state of emergency and made sweeping changes to their national policies. These changes had far-reaching impacts on the functioning of the arms of governments and the entire nation had to suspend various activities to implement the policies in response to the crises. However, after World War II, significant events have been considered as turning points in national ...

As indicated by the interactionists, the fundamention of typical interactionism is the way in which the individual is associated with the social structure and the conceivable exchange between the individual and others . The perspective of symbolic interactionism posits that the interactions existing between the teachers and the student aid in the development of certain expectations on the performance of the students in the discipline and academic subjects. The so-called teacher expectancy effect suggests that the expectations imposed by the teacher on the achievement and performance of the student impacts the actual results. When the teacher has low expectations, the ...

Civil and human rights involve many dynamics. They are also a question of evolving law. Although the declaration of human rights is categorized on the scope of human entitlements, it nonetheless leaves out important information on the modalities of implementation.

The Supreme Court decision of the year 2008 in the district of Colombia and Heller is an important event on human rights. The case involved the interpretation of the second amendment of the US constitution. The amendment recognized in ...

Often, courts allocate liability depending on what term of the contract is in violation. In a practical scenario, some terms are more relevant than others. In the past, courts ...

Bona Fide Occupational Qualifications (BFOQ) represent an employment practice that allows discrimination in specific cases, when an applicant’s religion, age, gender or national origin, when such discrimination is justified by the need to ensure normal performance of a job. While BFOQ frequently serve as an important tool of distinguishing between the cases of justified and unjustified discrimination, the practice of applying the BFOQ is associated with a significant degree of controversy (Shaman, 1971). For instance, a question remains whether the gender-based discrimination in the military shall be considered in light of the BFOQ clause, contained in the 1964 ...

Extreme sport influence

Extreme sport is a kind of sport that is associated with high risk, peril or danger. This type of sport started to emerge relatively not long time ago. Before, humankind did not have such industrial and technological progress as we do nowadays; humans had to procure food and shelter constantly in their everyday life. It was all about danger and tension that embodied in the form of wild animals, natural disasters or other perilous things that surrounded humans. Nowadays, however, the world became much safer in the terms of nature. People can control many things yet sometimes it is ...

It was 4:32 in the afternoon, on a Tuesday, when it happened. At 4:31 one could look out their window and see the robotic assistants, called RA’s for short completing all of the basic everyday tasks that people once had to do for themselves. They cooked, cleaned, monitored children, maintained property. As the generations rolled by humanity placed more and more responsibility on the shoulders of the technology that they had created. Eventually, human beings had become sedintary creatures, more so than at any other point in history. The RA’s were now working on behalf of humans, ...

451 Degrees Fahrenheit Numerous medieval utopia promised happiness to man on earth. Who has anything against this? Maybe it was the writer of the 20th century, who dared to encroach on the sacred right of mankind? The fact is that Bradbury has created a dystopia, the plot of which is an impartial view on the future society, tat quite clearly reminds us of the present and the society we have now. We too are acquainted with the same attempts to show a person the path to true happiness, which lies in the ruthless negation of everything negative in the ...

In his article, Brian Yazzie Burkhart talks about differences in the comprehensions and perceptions of the world between representatives of western nations and American Indians. He contrasts the underlying principles of comprehension of these two nations by stating that representatives of Western nations seek for a reason and evidence, while American Indians’ way is more intuitive-based and rely on feelings. The characters of Coyote and Thales only prove that American Indian epistemology is very different from the epistemology of Western nations and this difference is obvious in every aspect. He easily finds evidence to his idea by referring to ...

In this discussion, the organization that will be discussed is an organization dedicated to halting the epidemic of drunk driving; this is a noble cause, but it ...

Poverty is one of the most acute social problems of nowadays. Today, it seems that the technological advancements as well as the profound changes in social structures make it possible to get rid of poverty entirely, especially in well-developed industrialized countries like the United States.

In order to understand how to eliminate this social failure of even the most advanced societies, one should understand clearly the factors which lead to it in the first place. The story of Sue Christian, described by a journalist Monica Potts in ...

Jamaica Kincaid, an Antiguan-American novelist, wrote the short story under consideration. It presents one paragraph, which is really a flow of advice the mother gives to her daughter. The pieces of advice are separated with either semicolons or commas, while stops are completely absent. The end of the text is left open as it finishes with a question mark. Interestingly, the long list of the mother’s advice is interrupted twice with her daughter’s remarks highlighted by italics. Overall, the text produces quite an unusual effect due to the extraordinary punctuation. Therefore, the list of advice, the main ...

For the analysis I have chosen a news article from the CNN website, it is called “Cute or creepy? This toy lets babies post selfies on Facebook”. The article is about Laura Cornet – an Eindhoven Design Academy graduate, who is annoyed by the constant posts with pictures of babies and newborns in her Facebook news feed. Thus, she puts forward an idea that parents do not consult with their kids before posting their photos; there is no agreement between them, and actually, they have no right to do this. As a result, Laura Cornet creates a toy that gives an opportunity ...

Hart Crane's "To Brooklyn Bridge" is a rare poem that effectively uses diction to convey the immensity of something as large as a bridge. "To Brooklyn Bridge" is much more than a dedication to the famous bridge. The poem's word choice represents the grandiosity of the bridge itself. Its diction and tone combine to achieve a quintessential work that accurately depicts the size and importance of the Brooklyn bridge to New Yorkers and non-New Yorkers alike.

In the first stanza, Crane asks a question in a rather inquisitive tone. "How many dawns, chill from his rippling rest/The seagull’ ...

Political advertisement is a very specific genre of commercials. Some might even call it a separate kind of art and it would be too reckless to deny that statement. The culture of political advertisement, propaganda and campaign activities has been constantly evolving, still is and is sure to continue to do so. Campaign ads which will be analyzed in this paper are no exception. Having started with word-of-mouth advertising in the previous centuries, ideas for how to spread election campaigning materials have led to the usage of such technological breakthroughs as radio, television and internet for political purposes. And that has ...

According to Hedley Bull, international relations are not merely power struggles between that are self-contained, but states are the world, members of a society that is characterized by the absence of governance or condition of anarchy.

Order only exists as an aspiration for that reason international relations exist simply because of strife and disorder.

It has often been argued that order is a part of the historical record of international relations, ...

Maturational, or maturationist theory, advanced primarily by Arnold Gesell, is sometimes classified under the broader umbrella of biological theories. Maturational theory, one of the earliest theories that arose from the study of children and their development, is based on the biological maturation of children, or their physical and psychological changes. ...

In Euthyphro of Plato, we are introduced first to a conversation that goes on between Socrates and Euthyphro with an explanation by Euthyphro on his intention to prosecute his father on the murder that he strongly believes that he has committed in his presence. It is clear that Socrates from the start of Euthyphro has one objective in mind; questioning the ones around him and provoking them in questioning their own lives aspects. A good example is the question that he directs to Euthyphro that at first glance looks confusing. The argument clearly states that the morality idea is solely ...

Question 1

Ballenger’s statement implies that, despite the fact that a researcher ought to use a source in his or her research, he or she is not eligible to directly copy the works incorporated in the source. The relationship between a researcher and the source becomes complex in this context in that, owing to the fact that a researcher should use resources and closely relate his work to the source in which he retrieved facts and supporting evidence, he or she should not quote the work directly but somewhat present the ideas or rather the supporting evidence using his or her own words.

English is a language which is spoken by billions of people worldwide. The vast majority of people can speak, at very least, a smattering of the English language and as such, it has begun to gain a reputation for being the ‘lingua franca’ of the world of academia. The growth of the English language exploded during the prime years of the British Empire – at its height, the Empire consisted of almost a quarter of the planet and held control over millions of people (Luscombe). This was unavoidably likely to have an effect on the languages spoken around the globe and, indeed, ...

The Declaration of Independence guarantees our liberty and security automatically comes with it. The two may co-exist without putting the other in jeopardy for the sole reason that one liberty without security cannot exist and neither can security without liberty. The proper balance between the two integral human rights will exist when the government implements measures that would compliment each other instead of providing channels that would limit one and reinforce the other. It could be tricky, especially in a country like America, which sometimes has to thread carefully so as not to poke a sleeping bear, so to speak. ...

Do you believe she provided enough wait time for students?

Yes, I believe the teacher provided enough wait time for the students. Sufficient wait time could in fact encourage the students to express their views during different stages of the learning process.

How do you personally react to wait time, either when you were in school or in the workplace?

When a question is directed at me, I personally take some time to think about the matter and would respond in the most appropriate manner. That is, I am a person who utilizes the wait time to think about the issue or question being asked. So I like teachers who give sufficient wait time for the students. According to Davis (2013, p. 72) “appropriate wait-time allows students ...

The Meno, one of Plato’s dialogue, is one of the most studied Meno describes the excellence of humans as he answers Socrates with a list of virtues of a man.

The Social Network is a movie supposedly based on the incorporation of Facebook, the friendship between Mark Zuckerberg and Eduardo Saverin, and the breakdown of their friendship. At first glance, it would appear that the movie is simply about the website that began in a dorm room in Harvard University and created by five friends in 2004. While the movie is based on real people and real events, the accuracy of the film will remain a question. But in analyzing the essence of the movie, accurateness to the actual events that transpired during Facebook’s first year are immaterial because the story ...

In this self-reflection paper, I discuss how I’ve undergone development with respect to sexuality based on cultural, familial and peer influences. This discussion will draw from various scholarly sources on sexuality and human development.

An Overview of my yester to current years

I was brought up in a Catholic home and the subject of sexuality in that setting was not talked about at all.

I can recall that there were no discussions on sex or birth control or relationship matters. Interestingly, my mum had ...

Book Review: Creating Innovators:

Book Review: Creating Innovators Tony Wagner’s book, “Creating Innovators” is a fascinating book that outlines how parents and schools can educate children to be “innovators”.

All of the young adults that Mr. Wagner interviewed for his book possessed that traits and skills. The curiosity begins at home and needs to ...

In this paper, I will discuss the present-at-hand and the ready-at-hand in Heidegger’s philosophy. Martin Heidegger (1889-1976) is a German philosopher who is often thought of in terms of the Existentialist movement in Continental philosophical tradition, but who did not prefer to be classified as an existentialist (McBride 131). Heidegger concerns himself with the deep metaphysical question of being in his book Being and Time — a job he never completed in his lifetime (Blattner 9). Heidegger has an ambitious project in his book — that is fundamentally to investigate being, a project he feels has been forgotten by philosophers (Heidegger 1). Theologians ...

Every person needs passion in their life. It is a driving force that gives life a sense and makes it meaningful. People may have many interests and that means that their intellect is being stimulated by more than one area in life. Voltaire said that a person can change everything, except their passions.

That is a very personal process and it makes a person grow. The soul makes a selection of what we should consider ...

In recent years, manufacturers have managed to replicate the technology used by these million dollar machines and miniaturize them for commercial use. Many consumers use these drones for leisure or photography, but there are also groups using these drones for questionable activities like stalking, spying and even ...

Speaking about the four given definitions of risk, articulated by the four outstanding people, I think that each of these definitions makes sense to a great extent and striking a delicate balance between them would in fact be better that choosing one of those. However, having to choose the best I like I would say that quotations pointing out in favor of taking risk (so, the ones worded by John F. Kennedy and Jawaharlal Nehru) rather that in favor of being cautious are the ones I like better. Not taking any risk and always going forward by small steps is what ...

In as much as we live in a world where we are fully surrounded such tools and machines, we seldom think about these tools, machines and tools that surround us. We are not aware of how they shape us or how we shape them. Consequently, these change our relationship with such tools, neither are we even aware of how they enrich or impoverish us. This trend is talked about by Dave Eggers, in his book The Circle; “ The tools we create, often manufacture extraordinarily extreme social needs. Nobody needs a level of contact you are spreading. It changes nothing.” (p 45) The ...
