Crime and punishment have forever been the main theme within several writings by numerous authors.

In order to study this aspect of literature, I have decided to study two books -- "Chronicle of a Death Foretold" by Gabriel Garcia Marquez (1984) and a ...

The truth is that children of lower socio-economic groups will have a more difficult time accessing higher education and this leads to the limitations ...

Hanke and Hearn make similar claims to Williams as the ...

Critical Analysis: Comparison of Arguments

The crisis affecting universities is a subject of earnest debate among academics and education theorists, as also social science researchers. Two outstanding articles on this subject were authored in 2012, one by Jeffrey J.

Both sets of authors agree that the “new global university,” which panders to the needs of global finance and neoliberalism, is a far cry from ...

1 Samuel is one of the oldest documented writings and it belongs thematically with 2 Samuel. In some editions they are known as first two Books of the Kingdoms, thus leaving 1 and 2 Kingdoms as third and fourth books in this sequence. This is a very logical connection, since all the four books describe chronological events of the years preceding and following the establishment of the Jewish kingdom as an institution. Functionally 1 Samuel is a book of the Prophets (the other two being Law and Writings). This fact tells us that 1 Samuel is not only a historical book, describing ...

Introduction

This research paper considers and evaluates the arguments propounded by Rachels (2002) regarding both active and passive forms of euthanasia. In order to be clear on the precise meanings of those terms, it is appropriate to define them before discussing these topics. The research undertaken for this paper will validate Rachels’ views on the issue, which are essentially that there should be no moral or ethical distinction between the two types of euthanasia – basically because in many instances active euthanasia is in fact more humane, because it drastically shortens the duration of the individual’s pain and suffering.
