Marxist theory Karl Marx is conventionally famous for constructing a division of two classes when he branded them proletariats and bourgeoisie. In the Marxist theory, class consciousness is defined as the awareness and understanding of an individual’s economic and social class as compared to others. Class consciousness also involves where one’s class, whether social or economic, ranks in the larger society and the wider picture. According to Karl Marx, an individual is also supposed to understand the characteristics and collective interests of his or her class in the political and socio-economic order of society. Class consciousness is a core aspect of Karl Marx’s class conflict since it is the basis of relationships formed between owners and workers in society. Class consciousness creates awareness about social, political, and economic relationships between the oppressors and the oppressed in society. Karl Marx believes that the lower classes would get tired of the constant oppression from the owners’ class and rise up to overthrow them. Subsequently, a new system of political, social, and economic values would be created based on inequality to do away…
Journey to Recognition When many Asians crossed the pacific to America, they were assured of getting opportunities for better wages so that they could support their families back at home. They never thought of how they could be treated or how their lives would change in the new lands. Most Asian immigrants got jobs in cane farms at first, where they would till in the farms for three to five years, depending on the contracts. A majority of Asians were mistreated in farms whose main objective was to rake huge profits after signing deals with as many immigrants as they could find. Despite feeding and housing them, most cooperatives still mistreated most of the immigrants with harsh working conditions and meager pay for challenging jobs. Feeding them meant that they could work hard in the farms and thus better projections in terms of profits. Additionally, a lot of Asians were discriminated against, and they could not get rights to own properties even when they had made enough to want to settle down. I think that racism, Orientalism, and inequality all…
The excellence of exceptional effects The excellence of exceptional effects makes it easy to show terrifying scenes with brutality and surprising convincing element, the natural repositories that formulate a horror film. One of the most imperative aspects of modern-day horror films is the portrayal of explicit violence. Psycho represents the first expedition into this new inclination. Psycho was referred to as the “source of the contemporary horror movie” because Hitchcock, the director, wanted to influence his viewers with apprehension. He accomplished this by deciding to make the film in black and white. Before the Psycho, horror movies were based on monsters. Psycho transformed the field of horror movies by making the assertions that the darkest, wicked, murderous, and mysterious monsters live openly with the audience, an aspect that made it relevant in the film industry when it was released and five decades later. The cinematic significance of the movie is evident through various suggestions and satire in pop traditions. Many opponents consider the initial model of the horror genre, particularly the shower incident and musical score. Studies and reviews about…

Integrating your psychology and counseling perspectives with your religious beliefs and values Introduction My philosophical assumption of Human created in the Image of God. The uniqueness of humanity helps us understand the image of God in man. I am a Christian, and I believe that we spiritual beings created to represent and worship our God, who is Spirit. According to Bible when God created the first man, He breathed into his nostrils the breath of life (Genesis 2:7) making a man a living soul this gave him spiritual life. We relate to God in worship and communication. We are personal beings. A personal God creates us, and our personhood reflects that aspect of God. He created humans with personality, as unique individuals with self-consciousness and purpose. While every man and woman has shared traits, no two people are alike. Every individual has image of God; each human life has significance before God. We are moral beings. God is holy. He created humanity with a moral compass, a conscience that gives each of us an inner sense of the difference between…
Covid-19: 10,000 Chinese and Iranian visas to be revoked by South Africa. South Africa is set to revoke around 10,000 visas that were given out this year to the citizens of China and Iran as a result of the new coronavirus, and visas will now be needed for other high-risk countries that had been visa-free, such as; Italy and the United States. South Africa’s Minister of Health, Zweli Mkhize, said that a total shutdown might be necessary if the new measures announced on Sunday, such as travel restrictions and school closures, do not prove effective. The official warned of the high risk of transmission of the new coronavirus due to “the problem of inequality” in South African society. In addition to revoking the 10,000 visas, the South African authorities now require a visa from people from countries such as Italy or the United States of America – who previously did not require it. South Africans fear that the transmission of the new coronavirus and the disease it causes, Covid -19, will be increased by groups of people in cities…
Arab Prejudice The house next door had just gotten new tenants, and to my surprise, they were an Arab family. I have nothing against Arabs, but again I guess I had never interacted much with an Arab or even knew any personally. They had different accents, and most of the time they spoke Arabic. Also, their mode of dressing was a bit different than what most people wore in the neighborhood. The family was an extended type where the grandmother, a few uncles, and aunts, together with some children, stayed together. Most of the time, they were indoors, and nobody ever knew much about them. The children who attended my school did not talk much and went straight home after school. However, that was not the main reason for my cognitive reaction. The more signiificant fact was that much of the terrorist attacks are linked to people of Arab descent. I must admit that I could not stop thinking about the safety of my family and other people that I cared about; I felt insecure with such neighbors. Being Arab…

One of these challenges is balancing attention as well as assets. The second challenge incumbent companies have in managing the issue of dual transformation is protecting traditional income streams while at the same time increasing new sources in an unhurried as well as innovative way or manner.

The circumstance aggravates this challenge that innovations need cooperation across genuinely and well-established industries. There are different alternatives for coming up with new value networks while keeping the old ones at the same time. One of these alternatives is determining cooperation demand. In this alternative, the choice of tasks…

Laws on divorce differ significantly across the world.

In many countries, once a person has divorced, they are allowed to marry another individual. Approaches to divorce can either be fault-based or no-fault based.
