Empirical Research Proposal Regarding the Oppression of Women in Islamic States
[ send me this paper ]
This 12 page report discusses whether or not the oppression of women in Islamic states is based in the religious theology of Islam or in the cultural contexts of individual nations. Many believe that the Quran (Koran) teachings and male dominance have caused this situation when the actual problem has been more directly related to the interpretation of holy scripture by men. It is the fundamentalist extremists who should take the blame for distorting the teachings of Islam. This paper is written in ways that lend themselves to the actual development of a larger research project. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Establishment Of The State Of Israel: Impact Upon Bedouin Of The Negev
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Similar to the plight of America's indigenous Indian population when the Puritan colonists settled upon their territory, the Arab Bedouin in the Negev – a nomadic people who comprise twelve percent of Palestinian's minority population (Anonymous, 2004) – were forced into a miserable existence replete with loss of rights to land ownership and grazing, agricultural desecration, lack of water access, substandard education and general misery cast upon them ever since the 1948 War when eighty percent of the natives either fled from or were thrown off their property when the State of Israel came into existence. Those who remained were relegated to second-rate military plots without opportunity to return to and cultivate their own land. That was not the worst of it, however, when one considers the inhumane treatment unrecognized villagers have historically endured at the hands of a merciless Israeli government.

Ethiopian Jews
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. Lost in a sea of political, social and religious disregard, Ethiopian Jews – called Falashas meaning "the alien ones" – were no more considered a welcome part of their homeland than any other infiltrator would be. That they were half a million strong did nothing to maintain their cultural strength against other indigenous peoples of Gondar. With religion at the crux of this separation, it comes with great relief that this virtually desolated ethnic population was both discovered and rescued from its collapse into complete destruction.

Expanding to Kuwait
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page memo to the president of a company contemplating expanding to Kuwait. The memo reports on the economy of the country, social factors and implications for the company. Kuwait's market is limited by virtue of its size and relatively small population. What does exist is quite active economically and the people are allowed to pursue interests of their own choosing.
