From the Paper
"On September 11, 2001 Taliban terrorist attacked The World Trade Center and The Pentagon. The attack was carefully planned to use American symbols, such as the choice of the airline, which was ?American Airlines,? and it happened on September 11. The ninth month on the 11th day is Americas national symbol for life saving emergencies. This attack was clearly a hatred mark for America, but all nations were affected by the crisis. Although the event is named "The Attack On America," this event could easily be named "The Attack On The World." People from over ninety nations were in the World Trade Center, including some from the same country which instigated the attack. The attack was completely unexpected, and after the impact, everyone was wondering why did it happen and who could hate America so much?
"Bin Laden, a man with very little authority and power in his own country, is the source behind the disastrous attack that destroyed the airline industry and the economy of not only America, but also many other countries. In 1993, Bin Laden attempted to destroy the World Trade Center to express his hatred for America. His attempts to attack America in 1993 failed. According to BBCnews.com, Bin Laden hated America because of his history in his own country. Bin Laden rejected his heritage to become a freedom fighter in his own country against Russia. Bin Laden first bombed an U.S. embassy in Nairobi; minutes later he bombed another U.S. embassy in Tarzani"

Abstract
The paper analyzes the prime objective of the industrial revolution in China through the book "The Man Awakened From Dreams: One Man's Life In A North China Village 1857-1942" by Henrietta Harrison. The premise of Harrison's book revolves around the effective primary source of Liu Dapeng's diary and published commentaries on Chinese society in the 19th and 20th centuries. In this manner, the question of spiritual wakening is brought into question regarding Liu, since he is radically against any change that is evolving as a result of a growing industrial complex in China.
From the Paper
This book review will examine the biography of Liu Depang through the historical novel writing of Harrison in relation to 19th and 20th century China. Although Harrison makes historical depictions of Depang's life in relation to his own diary and recollections, the premise of life for this man is correctly arranged alongside historical events. Harrison effectively fuses primary sources from the personal experiences of Liu Depang within the cultural and industrial upheaval in China, creating a compelling blend of religious personal experience alongside the historical changes that brought China ..."

Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of the automobile industry by looking at a number of aspects of the industry and how they will affect a company's strategy and, ultimately, its competitive advantage. Some of the factors the paper considers are internal rivalries within the industry, complements within the industry, barriers to entry, buying power, supplier power and substitutes.
From the Paper
"The industry selected for analysis in this report is the automobile industry. Porter identified five major factors that affect the strategy that a company can utilize in the modern day market. Strategy planning in organizations is conceptually and practically complex in nature. (Greenwood and Carter, 1997) The type of product, the life cycle of the product and the process involved in designing, manufacturing and marketing of the product all determine the strategy that is used by a company no matter what the industry. An organization has to allow for constant and steady improvement in the company's position in the market if it has to maintain a sustainable competitive advantage. Structure-conduct performance paradigm (SCP) was used by Porter to design the five-force business strategy model that has become the foundation of business strategy studies. (Besanko, Dranove and Shanley, 2000) Successful competitive advantage is defined in a variety of performance measures such as market share, return on sales, return on investment and bottom line profitability."

Psychological Affects of Domestic Violence on Children, 2002.
An examination of various studies which determine the possible psychological affects of domestic violence on children.
3,027 words (approx. 12.1 pages), 9 sources, MLA, £ 63.95
»

Abstract
This paper begins by providing statistics of how common domestic violence is in the home. In turn, the writer states that these high numbers expose an enormous number of children to affects of domestic violence. The paper discusses the various affects which range from developing violent tendencies themselves, low self-image, aggression in problem solving, behavioral problems and even suicide.
From the Paper
"In the area of psychological research there a thousands of pressing questions, yet among all those questions one rises to the top of the list. In the area of family psychology and family therapy the question of the psychological affects of domestic violence on children has been hotly debated and eternally researched, yet many questions remain unanswered. These questions are pressing as the institution of family in our culture evolves and emerges as an entirely different social dynamic than existed even twenty years ago. The psychological effects of violence, in the family upon children are vast and will probably always need further address. Many families garner a different definition as more and more family units are head primarily by one parent and many families combine to become families consisting of several members who are related only by law, rather than by genetics. These trends began many years ago but continue to change the face of the American family today and will no doubt continue to do so in the near and far future. In this proposed study the issues of the psychological effects of domestic violence upon children will be addressed through diligent research. The problem has been clearly assessed for at least the last ten years and possibly longer as more and more information about developmental psychology leads to clearer and clearer indications of causation between parental behavior and children?s behavior."

Abstract
This paper explores the ways that American society and culture was affected by the Holocaust.

It explains how the American public received the news of the concentration camps, how the war affected American-Jewish relationships and its relationship with Germany after the war.
From the Paper
"Nazi Germany?s rule led to the death of millions of European Jews. While World War II began as a European War, American eventually got into the act as an ally. By the end of the War, America was rolling its tanks into the concentration camps of the Nazis, all across Eastern Europe, freeing concentration camp prisoners and experiencing firsthand eyewitness accounts that were indescribable and utterly inhumane."

The Affects of the Moving Assembly Line on American Society, 2006.
A look at how the moving assembly line used by the automotive industry had a significant impact on American society.

Abstract
This manufacturing study will examine the evolution of the assembly line production used within the American automobile industry. By examining "Asphalt Nation" by Jane Holtz, one can realize how greater reliance on mass produced manufactured goods on the moving assembly greatly lowered demand for handcrafted items in specialized labor. In this manner, Holtz, defines the increasing reliance on automobile manufacturers to create cars through this process to give greater access for travel in the middle classes. The great industrial revolutions of England and those that occurred within America in the 19th century help one to realize how more customers could have access to certain products. In the case of the automobile, Henry Ford sought to make it possible to give every American a car.

They also include new transportation modes such as submarines or airplanes. Each weapon affected wars, some more profoundly than others. "

Abstract
This paper examines the phenomenon of child sexual abuse in the United States. It provides statistics concerning the rise of this problem and discusses how this affects a high percentage of children and youth. The paper focuses on the way this abuse affects children socially and psychologically, in both their childhood and future adult life.
From the Paper
"When a grown-up person or a person much older than a child engages in sexual action with a juvenile, mistreatment takes place. The misuse can be a one time event, or over an extensive period of time and includes touching, fondling, kissing in a sexual manner, oral sex, masturbation, digital or penile penetration of rectum or vagina. Sexual violence at young age is related to a range of psychological indications and problems and is widespread in our culture (Berliner & Elliott, 1996). The rape cases that happened when the sufferer was less than eleven year old was 29% and was 32% between the ages of 11 and 17, as per a rape survey carried out by the National Victim Center in 1992. The Centers for Disease Control have been involved in providing instant steps to teach the public against the spread out of the diseases, when dealing with a medical spate in the country. In America, people are conscious that 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 7 boys are physically abused before the age of 18 and the spate of child molestation is widespread (Finkelhor, 1993). It is not just enough if a child is cautioned to stay away from unfamiliar person. A greater part of the children are physically abused by those they know and have faith in, but are not familiar to other family members. There is also a lesser-known group of molesters like, children who commit sexual crimes upon children younger than themselves."

Abstract
Transnational corporations - companies which operate in two or more nations - have emerged onto the global scene as business conglomerates that affect the lives of people on six different continents. This paper analyzes the affects that transnational Corporations have on developing countries, examines how they can stimulate economic activity and the detrimental, darker role TNC?s can play in harming the environment and taking advantage of the less stringent standards in developing countries. The paper uses Cypher and Dietz?s "The Process of Economic Development", Chapter 14: TNC?s (1998), as well as Andre Frank?s "The Development of Underdevelopment" (1969).
From the Paper
"Cypher and Dietz term DFI or Direct Foreign Investment as the ownership of productive assets by a corporation in another nation. They continue by pointing out that existing plant and equipment is quite often the target of TNC investment for purchase, reducing the ownership and control of domestic capitalists (C & D 1998, PGs. 436-438). When TNC?s purchase existing plants and equipment in developing countries, they are not aiding the local economy or stimulating investment, but rather are carving their own niche into the developing country that substitutes local ownership and control. Based upon statistical analysis of total investment in developing countries, DFI accounts for a small slice and thus has a rather modest impact on the growth of lesser-developed countries. Cypher and Dietz point out that the impact the TNC positively has on undeveloped countries is more qualitative in nature than quantitative (C & D 1998, Pg. 438)."

Abstract
This paper introduces, discusses and analyzes the short essays Dorothy Allison's "A Question of Class," and Tillie Olsen's "I Stand Here Ironing," Specifically, it shows how the impact of poverty shapes the personality of the individual and how this theme is developed in both essays. The paper shows that poverty affects each person differently. Some people simply accept poverty, and have no hope for the future. Others, like the two women characterized in the essays, do not accept poverty, but see it differently, and therefore react to it differently.
From the Paper
"The author of "I Stand Here Ironing," Tillie Olsen, was born in 1913 to immigrant parents. As a young woman she worked in factories, as a waitress, and a laundress, so she understood the poverty and oppression she writes about in this work. This story was originally published in 1961. The story illustrates the grinding poverty during the era of the Great Depression in the United States, and how difficult that poverty made life for women and their children. It also shows its affect on later generations, when it affects the daughter Emily's life, too. She has to take care of the younger children, and really never has a childhood of her own. Her mother remembers, "I was a young mother, I was a distracted mother. There were other children pushing up, demanding" (Olsen). In the story, it is obvious that it was mostly poverty that created the situation that forced a mother to neglect her young child. As the mother irons, she remembers, and the story draws the reader into her world."
