Ideas are not innate Introduction An idea is a thought that is generated in the mind. They are a representation of what a person is thinking about; the idea one has can give away their personality and their way of thinking. Every person has an opinion about a situation and they are either similar or different from each other. People have conflicting arguments about what motivates one to come up with ideas; whether they are innate or they are influenced by outside sources. John Locke was a renown philosopher who introduced the concept of tabula rasa. This is the belief that when one is born, the mind is a blank slate and ideas are later formed as one grows up. He argued that ideas are formed from experiences and interaction with the environment from which one grows up. The theory of tabula rasa states that behavioral patterns are learnt and memorized as one grows up rather than influenced by the parental genes. This paper will defend the philosophy of John Locke that ideas are not innate and prove that ideas…

First Step: Choose your article The article can’t be written by an economist. It relates to course concepts, but doesn’t explain or understand the economic reasons behind what’s going on. It might say something like, “apples are more expensive than they were before the drought, but no one can figure out why.” So you get to come in and be a hero. The articlerelates to theories that you have covered in class. If it’s about development, but you haven’t covered development yet, save that article for a later IA and find something you’re sure you can nail. The articlecan be sufficiently explained using two related theories. For example it might be explainable using (1) supply and demand, and (2) elasticity. It isn’t always necessary that two concepts be involved in your analysis to achieve full marks, but it allows you to show how theories interrelate (and that you know more than one concept). Make sure the article isnot from a source or a country that you have covered in a previous IA. Using several different online sources are fine. But…

Urban Landscape Proposal I had the opportunity to visit two of the Chinatowns in the world was not only an amazing experience but also an enlightening opportunity to understand more about how resources around me are utilized. I recently visited two Chinatowns, the one in Kolkata India, as well as the one in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Although they are both cultural centers filled with daily performances and a lot of restaurants to eat at. I will explore the way that land and area is allocated in both Chinatowns, as well as the environmental impact that these differences have on the ecosystem. Having already been to Kolkata’s Chinatown several times, upon my arrival at the Vancouver Chinatown, I felt a palpable difference in many aspects. The most noticeable difference is the way land is distributed and spread out across Vancouver’s Chinatown, and even Vancouver as a whole. However, this difference might be attributed to the fact that Vancouver has a significantly lower population density. The environmental impact is significantly less destructive in Vancouver in several aspects. Vancouver’s Chinatown can boast…

Georgia’s segregation of students In 2015 the state of Georgia was found guilty of illegally segregating students with behavioral and emotional problems by the Department of Justice (Katzerman, Andriano, & Wells, 2015). The state of Georgia’s rationale for segregating students may be to increase average test scores in schools as this is a considerable factor when it comes to the total amount of funding that public schools receive from the government. Schools fear that students with behavioral and emotional problems may adversely affect the performances of other students by being destructive or by requiring too much supervision, support, and attention from teachers. Another possible reason why the state of Georgia segregated pupils was to provide students with disabilities with a curriculum that suited their needs and teachers that specialized in teaching children with disabilities. Segregation may be damaging to students with disabilities as it adversely affects their educational and social development. The curriculum for segregated students lacks many academic activities such as laboratory practicals and biological experiments. In addition, segregated students also have limited access to sporting and extra-curriculum activities…

Grant and Lee             Ulysses Grant and Robert Lee were the leaders of two warring groups of soldiers during the Civil war (1861-1865). The fact that the leaders shared different ideologies concerning leadership did not mean that they were completely different in character and decision making. Lee used to lead using narrow Eastern perspective and over-aggressiveness during campaigns whereas Grant was interested in building a different reputation to cover the whole nation. The end of the Civil War is attributed to the leaders’ ability to put away their differences and utilize their similarities for the benefit of the entire society. Grant and Lee had odd differences and hence the severity of the civil way. Lee was a tidewater Virginia aristocrat who only made decisions in the interest of his region. Lee embraced the belief of a society that would commit to anything else except allowing for change. The ideology shared by Lee was that human beings could not be treated inequality and that differentiation should happen in terms of social classes. According to Lee, the society needed a leisure class…
