Where, many can be able to acquire and construct such materials that can be purchased on the black market. As a result, this increases the odds that these types of weapons will be used in the future, to create a super terrorist attack. This is significant, because it can be used to corroborate other research on terrorists seeking to acquire and use WMDs. Where, they could be purchased on the black market or one of the state sponsors of terrorism could pass this material to these groups. (Campbell, 1997, 24 -- 50)

In this piece of literature, the author discusses how there are confusing international standards for dealing with WMD's and how to control them. This is because approaching the problem has been difficult. Where, some nations try to settle the issue through military or diplomatic channels. Instead, the author believes that an approach that uses cooperation, economic issues and the diplomacy will provide the best results; in stopping the spread of WMDs. This is significant because it shows that the spread of WMDs can prevented, by using a number of different approaches and flexibility. (Busch, 2008, 156 -- 175)

In this article, the author discusses how Iran has been trying to acquire WMDs for over 20 years. The main reason for this program is to prevent countries (such as the U.S.) from launching large scale invasions. As these fears were perpetuated by the Iran -- Iraq war during the 1980's, with the leadership not wanting to be vulnerable to invasions. This is significant, because it shows...
At which point, the chances for hostilities could increase because the possession of the kinds of weapons, could fool leaders into thinking the will not be attacked. (Taremi, 2005, 93 -- 108)
Clearly, the proliferation of WMDs is inevitable; with many nations (such as China) supplying smaller nation states the technology for their WMD programs. Over the course of time, this increases the chances of conflict or that these weapons can be passed onto terrorists. To prevent this from occurring, an approach must be taken where flexibility is used in conjunction with: economic, political and military objectives. At the same time, the world community must work together to prevent the spread of this technology. This means that nations such China, would have to stop spreading the technology to smaller countries. Until this scenario happens, there is a very realistic possibility that the spread of WMDs will continue until a tragedy occurs.

Those countries who have developed their own WMD programs and have not signed various non-proliferation agreements, highlights this hypocrisy that is existing in the international community. Where, no one is willing to force new countries that develop their own WMD programs to commit to such standards. This is problematic, because it telling the world that those countries not committing to various non-proliferation efforts, can maintain their programs (in secrecy) despite
While war is often a major factor in changing the nature of property ownership, much as major depressions, such as that of 1920 to 1940, another factor can be large increases in competition, such as that in industrial production that has risen in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan since the Vietnam War (Capitalism pp). All such developments "put stresses on the ability of individuals to finance and mange their operations (Capitalism
Economic Development in Honduras: A Banana War Legacy An Analysis of Economic Development in Honduras from 1820 to Present In many Latin American countries such as Honduras, the historical emphasis that has been placed on agriculture as a money industry for export purposes has resulted in the term, "banana republic" (Nash & Jeffrey 1994).

Social Work Theory: Australia An Assessment of an Application of Western Social Work Theory the Indigenous People of Australia Today, there is a considerable debate in the Asia-Pacific region concerning the importance of indigenous models of social work.

Social Justice Improving social justice for women has been identified as one of the building blocks of social change. Population control, education, and the eradication of domestic violence are all interlinked. "UNICEF estimates that worldwide, some 117 million school-aged children do not attend school, 62 million of them girls. Attendance rates are lowest in sub-Saharan Africa, where only 57% of girls are in school, and just 15% of these go on
