Opportunities to Reduce Traffic Accidents
Oman has one of the highest traffic accident rates in the world and nearly half of the fatalities caused by traffic accidents involve young people under the age of 25 years. In response to these alarming trends, the Royal Omani Police have launched a series of initiatives, some in partnership with the private sector, that are intended to raise public awareness about the problem and reduce traffic accidents in the Sultanate. To determine the efficacy of these initiatives and what remains to be done to address the need for improved traffic safety practices in the Sultanate of Oman, this paper provides a review of the relevant literature, followed by a summary of the research and important findings in the conclusion
Withholding Foreign Aid From Countries That Violate Human Rights
Even in the modern era, there are gross violations of human rights taking place all over the globe. Unfortunately, most programs put in place to persuade nations committing such violations to stop such inhuman activities are relatively ineffective at actually securing greater protection for vulnerable populations. As a result, many nations continue to be in violation of international laws, yet go relatively unpunished. The primary purpose of this research is to examine the current situation, and how international aid strategies are dealing ineffectively with particular nations that are clearly violating human rights.
Salvador's struggle and echoes in contemporary immigrant experiences
Research in today's environment does show that many modern immigrants face the same experiences and troubles as the fictional Salvador had experienced in Rivera's work. Yet, there is, in many ways, a greater sense of hope because of more progressive legislation and policies which try to make the process of becoming an American citizen easier for many immigrants today. However, not all modern legislation is so progressive, and many immigrants in Arizona are witnessing some of the most un-American policies to enforce strict immigration laws in the modern context.
