The Hippie Culture
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1174

.... a person to open their mind to new understandings and philosophies. But it wasn’t just marijuana that opened the minds of the youth; a new drug known as LSD came into existence: Depending on who was doing the talking, [LSD] is an intellectual tool to explore psychic ‘inner space,’ a new source of kicks for thrill seekers, the sacramental substance of a far-out mystical movement- or the latest and most frightening addiction to the list of mind drugs now available in the pill society being fashioned by pharmacology (Clark 59). With politicians and law enforcement officers lookin .....


Women In Nationalist Movements
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1425

.... practiced colonialism. This is because there was an economic imbalance between the more powerful country and the country where raw materials were being taken from. The subordinate countries in this case began their quest for industrial status. Many of these countries modeled their goals after countries that were successful. Successful in this respect meant that there was a strong national identity. Nationalism also gave the country an opening to define their culture, economics, and status. Women in many countries thought that the nationalist movement would provide them w .....


Censorship From "Obscene" Material
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1044

.... sex. They used the word "bitch" more than 100 times and the f-word more than 200 times. Although most people agree that we are being overwhelmed with offensive material, there is no consensus on how to deal with the problem. There are three possible solutions. The first is the possibility of government censorship, which would include laws and penalties for breaking these laws. The second solution is self-imposed censorship by individuals and corporations. The third solution is total free speech with no censorship. The first possible solution is government censorship. I .....


Is Psychology A Science?
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1661

.... see if it describes reality. The scientific method works well in observing and recording physical data and in reaching conclusions which either confirm or nullify a theory. During the mid-19th century, scholars (although at that time probably termed philosophers) wanted to study human nature with the aim of applying the scientific method to observe, record, and treat human behavior that was deemed as unnatural. They believed that if people could be studied in a scientific manner, there would be a greater accuracy in understanding present behavior, in predicting future behavior .....


Police Brutality: What's Really Going On?
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 521

.... the police officers to the point they had to restrain him. In this case the police reacted to a tense situation with force and confidence that what they were doing the right thing. The police that the author talked to said they would have reacted the same way and most of the police officers that were interviewed said that was the right thing to do. Some said they weren't rough enough. What people saw in this case was the police officers beating Mr. King without mercy. I don't think that's what happened I think that's what people wanted to see. "What people think they se .....


Two Parents Or One?
Number of pages: 6 | Number of words: 1386

.... their love might be somewhat one-sided (Curtin et al. 371). Yes, single parents can show their love toward their children, but they have no spouse to express love to. Children from single parent families are therefore denied that learning experience of how a husband and a wife should love one another (Curtin et al. 369). Relationships are another thing that everyone needs, especially children. Children need a real strong relationship between themselves and their parents, but children from single parent families are usually denied this privilege because they are separate .....


Violence In Music And The Media
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 557

.... chorus goes as follows, “I’m a….COP KILLER, better you than me. COP KILLER, f**k police brutality! COP KILLER, I know your family’s grievin’ …F**K ‘EM! COP KILLER, but tonight we get even. I think just from those few lines you can understand why it was necessary to remove this album from stores. The first amendment right to free speech is crucial but you have to think of the safety of others when doing something like this and that is why the first amendment rights of this band were not damaged. Another big problem with today’s music is that it seems to be common now to de .....


Video Games: "Ummmm? I Do…buttt…. C'mon I'll Play Ya "
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1129

.... relaxing pastime comes with its own consequenses. Many guys start every night with the idea of finishing much of their homework in one sitting, but that one roommate, suite mate, or just that guy down the hall comes in with the bright idea to put all that away and start up a friendly rivalry. Because of such novelties as PlayStation, Nintendo 64, or the good old Sega, the grades of many once studious intellectual drops into the realms of mediocracy. The makers of many of the games now make them with the sole intent to attract the child in every guy from the age of about 15 to .....
