Problems in Gender Equality

Gender inequality has posed as a serious challenge in today’s society, especially since women empowerment started. Historically, women were given minor roles in society and they were always deemed the weaker gender. However, substantial improvements in the education systems have allowed women to receive education and they have proved that they are just as capable as their male counterparts are in various professions (Inglehart and Norris 2005).

Gender inequality, especially in developed countries has taken a new turn. Women have received so much attention that feministic movements that are now undermining the male species. Women are receiving preferential treatment ...

Now that technological progress has made it possible to apply medical innovations for saving human lives, there has appeared a measure of dissonance between the advocates and the adversaries of patents. Patenting means a person is granted a monopolistic or exclusive right to scientific achievement, which is purchasable for a certain financial reward that recoups the disclosure. However, patents imply zero availability of medical procedures to both patients and doctors, which places human lives in jeopardy. The point is that there is a need to protect intellectual property and the need for medical technologies to serve ethical purposes of saving human lives.

Enzymes are catalysts that increase the rate of reaction between substances and remain unchanged in the reaction. Enzymes are vital to several bodily functions and make possible such processes like metabolism and catabolism. Two features that make enzymes catalysts is their ability to lower the activation energy and their inherent tendency to combine with coenzymes and cofactors. Activation energy is the minimum energy required to activate the molecules of reactants in order to initiate a chemical reaction. Some substrates have high activation energies that would need very high temperatures to activate ...

Consequently, positive trade balance suggests in monetary value country exports more than it imports, while negative trading balance (trade deficit) is associated with dominance of imports over exports. Economists argue that trade deficit is not always considered to have a negative impact on the national economy, however it often creates potential risks which may result in harsh economic consequences if they are not addressed properly. For example, if net exports are negative it is assumed that proceedings from exports are ...

Berman, Paul. “Welcome to Phase Three of the Arab Spring: Islamists are Waning in the Arab World. But will Obama Notice?” New Republic, 22 February 2013.

Berman compares the Muslim Brotherhood’s post-revolutionary stance in Egypt to its counterpart in Tunisia. The Brotherhood in Egypt has proven less politically savvy than has been the case in Tunisia. This is borne out by the riots and demonstrations that have exploded in Cairo in the wake of the controversial constitution, which was introduced to the Egyptian public in December 2012. Some Egyptian observers have noted that initial promises from Washington to support democratic advocates in Egypt and the region have gone by the wayside, revealing that the initial promise of the revolution has receded back into the ...

Before the advent of the computer, artists and artisans alike utilized a complex tool in making their letter forms; the hand. At ten digits, five for each hand, the hand was efficiently the first digital lettering tool, utilized in engravings, carving and in the production of the various letter forms.

The advantages of the hand as a lettering tool underscore the paradox that, with technological advancement, both a loss and profit were incurred. The computer, on the one ...

However, various factors other than the basic communication elements affect the quality of communication in healthcare. Those factors include the organisational structure, leadership and management styles, organisational culture, staff motivation, and the organisational goals.

It looks odd to talk about sociology when talking about the religious beliefs of a particular group apart from specific norms that are advocated by particular traditions. It is what this paper seeks to address. The paper seeks to look at the way in which the models are connected with the religious beliefs and how they relate to the social norms. Before going further, it should be understood that not all religious beliefs entrench themselves in a supreme being. Not all the religious beliefs include worship, and not all of them have an ethical code of conduct. Not all the ...

Introduction Most lawyers grapple with First Amendment Issues Daily according to Professor Marvin Amori as they have to deal with laws that govern and concern speech and consequently write rules on them. Laws on speech are a crucial component in the society due to their significant contribution not only to national matters but also in global corporate boards as well as different public and private institutions. These lawyers therefore have to operate globally and are not only concerned with the First Amendment of the United States constitution but with customs, laws, and practices of different foreign nations (Mark 2238).
