... the meaning and boundaries of intellectual freedom, it will also cause a damage to the democratic society and nation. As the censorship itself “ is the act of examining material to suppress or delete any part of that material considered objectionable”, according to Harer (1992:26) Furthermore, when you limit the freedoms, you prevent everything that can be used for the good of human beings, as no freedom means no development. From the beginning of the existence of human beings, intellectual freedom has been seen as an inevitable fact of his/her life. So intellectual freedom - as a part human life- by experiencing many changes in different periods of the h ...
... the U.S. Army. Another source of southern confidence was cotton. Secession leaders expected to exchange that staple for the foreign manufactured goods they needed. The South's most important advantage was that it had only to defend relatively short interior lines against invaders who had to deal with long lines of communication and to attack a broad front. The Confederacy also had no need to divert fighting men to tasks such as garrisoning captured cities and holding conquered territory. In a short war, numerical superiority would not have made much of a difference. As the war continued, however, numerical strength became a psychological as well as ...
... you would feel like if you couldn't get a job just because you are a white man and not a hispanic man. The racism will become worse because of it, and that is the very thing it is trying to prevent. It is possible that because of , racism will grow and continue to grow until we history repeats itself and we end up living underold laws again. That is an extreme possibility to end up under discrimatory old laws again, but it is a definite possibility to end up somewhere close to live up to these laws again. In addition to that, people say is ok because it cures past discrimination (Keyes 1996). George DeWit spoke of this on the topic and said "Discrimination wasn ...
... to a recent Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) report, bombings or attempted bombings increased from 2,098 in 1990 to 3,199 in 1994 (the latest year available), a 52% increase. Property damage from bombings rose to $7.5 million, with 308 people injured and 31 killed. This does not take into account the tragic Oklahoma City bombing in 1995. Some ATF experts believe that it is the ready availability of materials and easy access to instructions and explosives information on the internet that has been the reason for this increase of bombings. There are several theories in the class text that help to explain the justification behind the actions of thes ...

Some make the change from childhood into adolescence with only a few minor problems; others, however, may have a more difficult time handling the pressures and may develop as a way to cope. Hormones are changing, body is developing, menstruation is around the corner and moods are swinging. Young girls seek independence and want to be treated as adults, but they are stuck in an in-between stage. All these new emotions are confusing, frightening and hard to deal with. Teenagers are under a lot of pressure to succeed and fit in; in paralle ...

At age eight, after obtaining a seal¹s skull, Roosevelt and two of his cousins started the ³Roosevelt Museum of Natural History.² The skull stayed on a bookshelf in the Roosevelt household throughout the remainder of his childhood, and items such as bird nests, insects, minerals, and shells were added to the Museum¹s collection. At age thirteen Roosevelt took lessons in taxidermy and started a book-study on mammals and birds. In Roosevelt¹s freshman year of college at Harvard, he intended to become an outdoor naturalist. Discouragement in the naturalist field instead led him to politics, where his interests could translate into m ...
... world. Most grown men view women only as housewives, incapable of nothing else. In the minds of some men women were meant to stay at home and clean the house, raise the children, and cook the meals. Even when woman decided to join the work force they had few careers to choose from. It was not until the late 1980’s that woman were accepted in to higher paying careers by the men that were already dominating the workforce. Even today when they are accepted into the workforce they are still not paid as much as men for doing the same work. A 1998 study shows that a woman in the same job as a man with the same expectations and responsibilities, the woman is paid ten ...
... This 5-4 decision would be easy to overturn in the court decides to revisit it later. This case was brought up by sheriffs in Montana and Arizona who said that running background checks would take valuable time away from other law-enforcement duties. This is a valid argument in less densely populated areas of the country where doing checks would bring manpower to a below minimum level. This argument is not valid for large cities, however, because it is needed more there than anywhere else in the country. In large cities there are many more police officers and they can afford to put a few on duty doing these checks. In large cities you can easily blend in becaus ...
