... arch, yet the well-defined methodological
component of the discipline. The steps involved
are establishing rapport in a new community,
learning to act so that people go about their
business as usual, and removing oneself from the
everyday cultural immersion in order to
intellectualize what one has learned, to put it
into perspective, and write about it accordingly.
There is a fine line between participant
observation and field research, although the
results of both show distinct differences....

Bill Of Rights Thirty Thousand
900 words
The Aristotelian view of democracy showed
democracy as a supreme state of being, promoting
equality more than anything. It allowed every
person to have as much say in a government as any
other person, and yet still allowed individuality
to reign. To follow this path of true democracy is
to follow the path to a perfect country. Yet
America, which prides itself on being a truly
democratic nation, is filled with corruption and
extortion, nothing like the Utopia Aristotle
portrayed. America is in th...

"Masks have served humankind for centuries as
artistic instruments, educational tools and have
often reflected and magnified human nature while
revealing the inner desires and fears of the human
heart. However, as we stand in the 90 's we have

... oped its own system of law, which is based on
civil law; this carried on after the union
although England practices a form of common law.
The devolved parliament will control this and so,
the devolved parliament can carefully debate law
specifically with Scotland in mind, as they do not
have to worry about any English laws being loop
holes for Scottish law. This would make Scotland's
parliament more democratic because the people who
it will be enforced against decide the law. There

Head Of The Family Clara Barton
966 words
After reading Francis Parkman's article, Women Are
Unfit to Vote, I found myself both offended and
annoyed. His arguments were not only shaky, but
they were also illogical. He states that the
family has been the political unit; consequently,
the head of the family should be the political
representative. He goes on by stating that women
have shared imperfectly in the traditions and not
in the practice of self-government. Lastly, he
suggests women might vote that men should go off
and fight in war...
