These are mighty periods that strengthen the pillars for the creations a mighty Malayan Empire in the Pacific.

A proud valiant archipelago of grandiose and influences, Philippines became a melting pot, a land where too many different races took part for the development of the land.

...A huge role that the elders of the Athenian society play are to protect the younger generation from change; the change that would corrupt the future and change the way of living. The protection of the youth plays a major role for the elders because the youth is the future of Athenian society; the youth will be making the decisions later on down the road after all of the elders die off. This is the reason why the citizens are very concerned about Socrates. The elders believe that Socrates is going to be the reason why the youth will be corrupted. But Socrates does not see how he could be the reason for the corruption of the youth because he always claims to not have any knowledge of anything. In Plato’s The Euthyphro, Socrates has a conversation with Euthyphro about what piety and impiety is. Socrates wanted Euthyphro to be his teacher and teach him everything he knows because he claims that he knows all there is to be known about what piety and impiety is. Therefore, Euthyphro teaches him everything that he knows about what it means to be pious and impious. After he starts to explain everything to him Socrates is not satisfied with any of his definitions that he has proposed to him, so Socrates starts to question him even more, and ask for a better definition. This back and forth conversation goes on for a while, and from Socrates questioning Euthyphro so much, Euthyphro himself starts to question everything that he knows about what it means to be pious and impious. Euthyphro...

...security and religious tolerant, adequate and improved infrastructure among others abound. However, it is disheartening to note that what are experienced today are increase in crime rates, political and religious uprising, corruption and other social vices. The situation is further worsened by the level youth unemployment in the country. Looking closely at the scenario, it is obvious that the ‘youths’ are the ones mostly involved. This group (youths), is supposed to be looked upon as the engine room of development in any country. Japan, China, India, USA, Great Britain and other advanced countries in the world made technological breakthrough because of the involvement of the youths. However, the Nigerian youths are yet to be recognized and their impact is yet to be felt. It is in view of this that this paper is structured to explain the need for reintegrating the youth as a panacea for the security challenges in Nigeria. Operational Definition of Terms In order to make this article explicit, the following definitions of terms are given as used in the text. Youths – These are part of the population who are active and their ages fall range between 18 – 45 years. Reintegration – A process of educating, rehabilitating, accepting and engaging the youths to be productive and useful in a society. Panacea – Solution to problem to socio-economic challenges. National Security – Absence of threat to life, property, and socio-economic well being of the people. Security Challenges...

We can see that supper powers support the incompetent leadership only for their self interest. When we evaluate the history and comprising with Pakistan Strong and powerful have always exploited the weak in a crude and inhuman manner. While the deprived intoxicated by heavy doses of philosophies recommending to recognize their ordained fate have kept quite and suffered. Corruption imperfectly affected the value of governance. It is of different types. Political corruption, related to the politicians and luxurious corruption is connected with the high rank bureaucracy.When Pakistan came into being on14 August 1947, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah has strongly condemned the presence of corruption. Islam explicitly condemns the existence of corruption in every form. The root causes of the rampant corruption in the country are lack of responsibility, lack of effective accountability, poor performance, unchecked and limitless power all play a very important role to produce the deteriorate law and order.

...Who are the real criminals in Rang de Basanti? I do not wholly agree with the message screened in Rang De Basanti. The movie, for all its comedy, drama and performances of the actors, suggests a very dangerous breed of patriotism. Simply put, you cannot assassinate the Defense Minister of the world’s largest democratic nation. It’s against one of the most fundamental ideals of the legalism India enjoys, that of due process, under which a convict is legally tried for his crime in the court of law. Similarly, the Defense Minister too should’ve been tried in the correct forum rather than being gunned down by a bunch of college students. Indeed, what the minister said and did in the movie was unbecoming and wrong, and undeniably, the movie gives a very strong base message (that the youth should make an effort to right the wrongs), however what Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra shows in the movie is drastic to say the least. Instead, if he had shown Aamir Khan and co. making an effort to rightfully convict the minister (Perhaps a sting operation? They could’ve sought access to the minister via Siddharth’s father), the movie would’ve made its mark much better. An analysis of the events transpiring before the assassination makes a rather strong case for Aamir Khan and his friends’ antipathy towards the minister. Amongst their best friend (an Indian Air Force officer) lays down his life in an aircraft crash to protect a town in Northern India, but rather than winning praises for his...

...the overview of our democracy. In countries such as UK has established commissions such as The Youth Citizenship commission to ensure that young people are reengaged in political process. In order to support the motion , mostly in federal elections the youth aged 18-24 years do not vote thus need to advocate for lowering of the voting age from 21 years to at least 18 years so that to engage youth in politics. Engaging youth in politics through allowing them to vote when they are as young as eighteen years could encourage them to serving citizens. This also could help in making politicians be accountable young voters as the count for their success. In addition many nations have lowered the voting age such as Brazil and Nicaragua and have experienced advantages of lower voting without any limitations. Local and state government’s decision affect young people thus it is important to help them have a voice over these decisions. This can only be enhanced through giving them the right to vote for their leaders. Since youth below the age of 18 years work and they are taxed they should be allowed to vote and be in a position to monitor the accountability of their leaders. It can be so unfair for youths to pay taxes while the do not have representation in the government who can address their problems. In addition, lowering the voting age would play a major role in encouraging the youth to vote even when they are older. Making them part of...

...Corruption In India “Corruption is Social Evil” “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” In its simplest sense, corruption may be defined as an act of bribery or misuse of public position or power for the fulfillment of selfish motives or to gain personal gratifications. It has also been defined as "Misuse of authority as a result of consideration of personal gain which need not be monetary". In recent Centuries India has earned a place among the THREE most corrupt countries in the world. Corruption in India is a consequence of the nexus between Bureaucracy, politics and criminals. India is now no longer considered a soft state. It has now become a consideration state where everything can be had for a consideration. Today, the number of ministers with an honest image can be counted on fingers. At one time, bribe was paid for getting wrong things done but now bribe is paid for getting right things done at right time. It is well established that politicians are extremely corrupt the world over. In fact, people are surprised to find an honest politician. These corrupt politicians go scot-free, unharmed and unpunished. Leaders like Lal Bahadur Shastri or Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel are a rare breed now who had very little bank balance at the time of death. The list of scams and scandals in the country is endless.

...of the banks and the super rich. More so than ever it is time for American to began to take more of an interest in the suffering economy that we live in. We must begin to investigate the true meaning of how our monetary and fiscal policy is supposed to work in our recessed economy. As expressed by the Occupy Wall Street protesters it is clear that greed has lead to our financial windfall. Leaving me to wonder do our elected officials really understand how our economics system works. Like the Occupy Wall Street protesters the American people have a wide range of complaints, demands, and goals. The American people along with cries around the world are tired of "the collapsing environment, labor standards, housing policy, government corruption, World Bank lending practices, unemployment, and the increasing wealth disparity of a poverty stricken nation"(Occupied America) Different people have been affected by different aspects of the same system; they believe that these were symptoms of the same core problem in the world’s financial crisis. In the mean time, prompting a dominos effect around the world which consisted of a demographic pool of young protesters do to the rise of unemployment.

...Conflict Analysis of the 2007 Post-election Violence in Kenya Mara J. Roberts * September, 2009 Abstract Kenya has been riddled with conflict and violence throughout its brief history as a nation. The 2007 post-election violence in Kenya, however, was of a different magnitude. In this paper, I perform an analysis of the conflict to examine why widespread violence erupted in the wake of Kibaki’s presidential reelection. I look at the history of the conflict, examine stakeholders, and employ a variety of conflict analysis tools in an attempt to get to the root of the cause of the conflict. Key Words: Kenya post-election violence, land dispute, tribal conflict, * Director of Conflict Recovery, New Dominion Philanthropy Metrics 1 “I don’t know whether Kibaki won the election” -Sam Kivuitu, Kenya Election Committee Chair, Jan 2, 2008 1. Introduction The carnage was horrific: 1,500 dead, 3,000 innocent women raped, and 300,000 people left internally displaced. Most of these atrocities happened in the first 14 days after the 2007 Kenyan general election. The severity of this conflict unfolded in a span of 59 days between Election Day, December 27th, 2007 to February 28th, 2008, when a political compromise was reached. The magnitude of the trauma and structural violence that took place in Kenya after the fourth multi-party general election took both Kenyans and the international community, alike, by surprise (Maupeu, 2008). In retrospect, the violence...

...Policy Issues and the Police AJS/582 February 14, 2012 Abstract Community policing is a new idea that has been introduced to law enforcement. The program is federally funded and was created with the intentions of providing citizens the opportunity to work collectively along side with the police to diminish fear and crimes within communities. By examining police departments within the Unites States which has implemented community policing programs, a determination of whether there has been a positive or negative change can be concluded. Community policing, when implemented and organized properly is the ideal situation for police departments and the communities to build an alliance against crime. Community Policing Foot patrol or walking the beat are the many terms used to represent community policing. This community relationship has been a subject of discussion and research since the early 1900’s and still is today (Trojanowicz ,1986). Community policing was established with the idea of local law enforcement and the community working collectively, focusing on reducing and eventually preventing crime and social disorder. The strategy is to achieve a more valuable and proficient crime control, reduce terror of crime and improve quality of life. Community policing also helps the police gain the trust and cooperation of the community by having a strong presence in the area. Most importantly...

...Matthew Smith March 2, 2014 History 2010-012 Defiance of Patriots Paper The Boston Tea Party was shaped by events that occurred inside and outside North America and had nontraditional actors; poverty in Bengal, pressure from New York and Philadelphia, Native Americans, and the youth all played roles in causing the tea protests. In Bengal the East India Company was administrating the country and their greed drove the country into poverty, hardship, and starvation. Pressure from Philadelphia and New York put on Boston to hold true to their non-importation agreement, including a ban on tea, helped motivate actions for the Boston Tea Party. The Native Americans played a nontraditional role for the protesters in Boston because of what they symbolized. The youth of Boston were another example of nontraditional actors that helped shape what the protests became. Boston faced many struggles as a town, from being heavily taxed to having their port shut down. Citizens of Boston never gave up the hope of freedom and they came together as a town to fight for what they thought was just.. The East India Company was in Bengal, today located in India, and they were administrating the colony for the British government on a charter granted to them. In the year 1769 not a single drop of rain fell, rice was 20-50 times higher the normal price, an estimated 1.2 million died, and citizens were driven into poverty, this was called the Fall of 1769. The East India Company was only in Bengal...

...Education without values, as useful as it is, seems rather to make a man more clever devil. Education gives awareness and information. It gives knowledge and knowledge is power. It gives skills and enables us to seek good career opportunities, livelihood, and opportunities for earning wealth, name and fame. It gives moral values and emancipates us as a human being. Education has multiple roles to play. It is ironic; however, that emancipatory role of education has given way to the utilitarian role. Education has fast become a means to learn the skills which makes us smarter at the market place rather than making a good human being. A professional, an entrepreneur, a political leader, a doctor or a teacher or whatsoever; devoid of human values all of them are just like a robot or programmed computers to accomplish certain tasks for his or her employers benefit. The purpose of education should go much beyond that. Education is not just skill and attributes needed to get money and power, it is also a means to learn and inculcate values and character that lead to changes in personal as well as social lives for betterment of life in general and for making the world a beautiful place to live. Education helps us to understand our self interest and enables us to adopt suitable strategies to achieve our self interest. Pursuit of self interest is one of the...
