Essay on How Did Sohan Lal Effectively Manage Village Affairs
1. How did Sohan Lal effectively manage village affairs, despite any formal education in management? Support your answers with
specific situations from the case.
How did Sohan Lal, the chairman of Sitara managed to become an important person in the village despite his lack of education? With
creativity. Sohan Lal is a very creative person not only does he manage to resolve different kinds of situations but also manages to get
the support of different entities, organisations and people with persuasion and determination. Sohan Lal always keeps in mind his
main objective which is to: "ensure the sustainable rural development of the village". A good example of persuasion and
determination is when Sohan Lal personally went to visit some ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This will ensure transparency within the members of the Panchayat as the fieldworkers will constantly have a say about the different
projects in the village. During these meetings, another suggestion would be for Sohan Lal to present a minimum of four different
projects that would be voted by all the members. This will ensure that the allocation given by the MNREGA would not go to waste,
as they will take the project number 2 if a problem arises. The idea of including the fieldworkers during the numerous meetings is a
way to give them the opportunity of choosing what projects they want to work on to improve the quality of life of all the population.
Finally, another suggestion would be for Sohan Lal and his team to make sure that there is a strong system of justice in the village. It
is important for the population to know that there are rules to follow in the village, and to set balance of the rights and obligations
each members of the society have. 3. What was the dilemma faced by Sohan Lal in relation to the pond renovation project?
The MNREGA accepted to give an allocation to the village so that Sohan Lal and his team can manage to renovate the pond using an
excavator loader machine called a JCB (funds that need to be use for a purpose of rural development activities only). The JCB
machine would do most of the excavating work.

The Neolithic Village: A Short Story
It was the last hour of the day and all the members of the Neolithic village gathered in the center of the village to hear a story from
one of the oldest villagers. The sun cast a gloomy orange color over the village and a cool autumns breeze tossed the leaves of the
trees back and forth. The old man was sitting in a handcrafted chair by a bond fire with dozens of eager ears sitting around him. He
began, "Many years ago when I was but a young lad, before villages and farms before carpentry and mining I was the child of a
Lascaux cave painter," he said. Someone Interrupted, "Life must have been easy! Just going wherever you wanted doing what ever
you wanted!" The old man laughed, "Now you just wait boy, life may have been simple, but not easy." He continued, "When I was a

Although living in the city has many advantages there are some disadvantages too, the cost of the living is very high in the city, the
city is always noisy, no fresh air and pure water. So it is hard to lead a healthy life. On other hand the village the undeveloped area for

"This mission was sent to us by the Hikage, the Sun Shadow, greet him as if he were any other kage."
"Does the Sun even have a shadow?" Tenten asked.
The three headed out, swiftly moving through the forest as smoothly as the fish glide through rivers.
"What is the Land of Summer anyways? Isn 't summer just a season?" Tenten questioned.
"I 'm not sure, I suppose we 'll find out." Neji answered.

The Village Blacksmith, The Crowd Of Wild Olive
What is human dignity? We often ask ourselves this question as we grow up, experience things, and know what is in the world. As we
ask this question other questions arise as such, is it earned, invented, or intrinsic? I believe it depends on the situation, but the
following stories bring up each of these questions and deliver different ways of delivering the ideas of human dignity being earned,
invented, or intrinsic. The Village Blacksmith, The Crowd of Wild Olive, Narrative of the life of Fredrick Douglas all bring up these
points and others as well as how different life situations relate to human dignity.
The Village Blacksmith is a poem about a man that works very hard each day. He is dirty and sweaty from his hard work. The
characters arms are compared to a machine of sorts when the author says, "The smith a mighty man is he, With large and sinewy
hands; And the muscles of his brawny arms Are strong as iron bands." (596). Although rough, and hardworking the story shows that
the man has human dignity when he hears his daughter singing in church and it reminds him of his wife who has passed away and
begins to tear up. He wipes away his tears with his rough hard working hands. In my opinion, this shows that even though a man is
rough, hard working, and tough he can still have the human dignity to mourn his late wife and have the emotion that comes from
hearing his wife 's voice in his daughter, but still be able to work

The Community Of A Virtual Village
As a part of the "virtual village" project volunteer, our aim was to research about our community regarding necessities of older adults,
their accessibility to healthcare, and overall what resources are available for them that make their life easy to live. Our group decided
to focus on Edgewater Community to understand older adults' needs. This service learning experience has had a significant impact on
my professional development. During the experience, I had an opportunity meet with many health professionals and community
leaders in the Edgewater Community. I learned about many health professionals working to assist older population in the Edgewater
community. For example, On Nov 5th Thursday, I went to Care for Real food Pantry with my group members, and met the Executive
Director of the organization, Allen Lyle. Lyle provided some backgrounds of the company and mentioned how the organization
makes difference in senior's life.
Also, my communication skills have been improved during the service learning activity as I interacted with healthcare leaders,

Queen Elizabeth Monologue Analysis
ATTENTION EASTBAY!
It has occurred to me that a colored man has arrived in our village and I take it upon myself to alert you guys on the earnest matter.
It's an unusual thing for a colored man to be present among us so it's safe to assume that this man is dangerous. He arrived here in a

It is necessary that we avert this beast from our village before he does anymore damage. Every aspect of this madman was placed
under scrutiny and only bad things can come from being close to him. I advise you all, villagers of Eastbay, to avert this madman.
This has brought my deepest level of caution, as through my source of information, there has been report that the beast has been in
contact with the women in the village. There comes fear that the beast will now impose his primitive culture upon us, leaving us no
choice, but reimbursement of hostility towards that deviled beast. This colored beast had the audacity to enter our village without any
ratification, with open arms, we provide him the tenants of the pillars of conformity, and he twists at every unimaginable turn that we
impose upon him. Well, the blood of my veins points sharp, this cannot be of more hault, rather haste action. My advisement to all of
you who supports the foundation of this very village, is to rise against these primates and take action to bring back sanity among the
village. The first step among this is annihilation, beginning with the expunging of the so–called beast... The time for action begins
with the first blow! However, my reasoning tells me, that the riddance of the beast will not be an easy path, and that we must make
slow turns, in order to get rid of the 'fifth' of this village. He's seemed to evoke the sympathy of some of our women. Therefore,
getting rid of him swiftly, would knock away the consciousness of our village. The only way this problem can resolve itself is to
expunge this beast, cast him away. This village is not known to be friendly with those who do not follow the ordeals of our existence.
The only place he belongs is the midst of the forest, where no sounds transgress the ears of men known to civilization. Thus, I

Themes Of Necttar In The Village
Modernisation to the Village
The way of living of people in villages is the culture of a society. Village way of life in India is considered to be full of cultural rituals
and beliefs. People mostly work on plantations to earn a living for themselves and the family. Whereas modernization is the current
term for an old process, the process of social change whereby less developed societies acquire characteristics common to more
developed societies. This essay will discuss a theme of Nectar in a Sieve which is the tension between modernization and traditional
ways of life. It will also discuss how different characters respond to elements that represent the coming of the modern world to the
village.
To begin with, Rukmani's curiousness on the arrival of the men to build tannery, changed to anger as she saw the effect of tannery on

not break" (Markandaya, 20). Seeing the negativity of Rukmani, Nathan was only comforting her with the truth of life. Nathan bears
the results of the strike at the tannery more graciously than anyone. He declares that their children must do what they do for their

Cultural Changes From The 1960 ' S
Conrad Phillip Kottak has visited the small village of Arembepe numerous times over the years. His visits were frequent, but spaced
out over a couple years, which caused him to begin to notice some very dramatic changes from the Arembepe he came to know. The
development of a more stratified society caused for some major changes coming to the small community. This essay is going to
address the major cultural changes from the 1960's to the 1980's and whether or not the suburbanization of this village community
was good or bad.
Arembepe in the 1960's consisted of only 159 households (730 people), which made up the small village community. Malnutrition,
poor public health, and high infant mortality struck the village during this time. Traveling to and from Arembepe proved difficult
because it lacked paved roads. Hardly any people ever visited the village, which is why Kottak often referred to it as being isolated
from the rest of the world. Having no electricity in the village also proved a real struggle for communication to the outside world.
74% of men in Arembepe worked as fishermen and 11% worked in business (Kottak 50). In order to make a good living, it was very
common for men to have more than one job. Women would cook, clean, make items for fishing, and help run stores. Overall,
Arembepe in the 1960's was not a stratified society, but that was soon going to change.
All Arembepeiros were baptized as Catholics, so prior to the 1980's, Arembepe was mostly ritual free.

Analysis Of Cosmopolitism In Things Fall Apart By Chinua...
It is unbelievable to think that an action of what a person does in the present, can either lead to nothing or it can become a catastrophe
event. In Things Fall Apart, Achebe writes about the Nigerian culture through the events that happen to the main character which is
Okonkowo. In Cosmopolitism, Appiah writes about the different values, morals, and cultures people in the world have and how
people can live together despite having differences. The event that could have had a different outcome was when the Abmae elders
decided to execute the white missionary man and later on the group of white people massacred the Abmae village. If the characters in
the event were more cosmopolitan with the concept of understanding each other and uncalled–for punishment, then the event could
have been a different outcome. When one applies Appiah's idea of understanding each other and uncalled–for punishment in
Cosmopolitism to the event in Things Fall Apart, the event changes to when the elders would not have executed the white missionary
man and therefore there would be no massacre from the group of white people. When the white man riding a bicycle came to the
Abmae village, the villagers were horrified to see a foreigner. The white man who came to Abmae did not cause any harm to the
villagers and yet the elders of the Abmae village decided to execute the white man. The villagers did not try to understand why the
white man was here for. In Cosmopolitism, Appiah states "One truth we hold

New York : A Small Village With A Large Population
March on Washington
Pulaski is a small village with a small population. You might have heard small murmurs of the town over the news because of five
feet of snow, or due to an increase of salmon swimming upstream. Most of its income comes from the annual salmon run that attracts
thousands of fisherman to the river where the fishing is easy. Most people outside Central New York has never heard of Pulaski,
unless they are fishermen. Even now in Utica, not even an hour and a half away, the village seems to not exist in people's minds. I
have to relate its position to in between Watertown and Syracuse. My graduating class was around 80 kids, not even enough people to
fill a movie theater. Who would have thought that this small school had the ability to represent New York in the national
Independence Day parade in Washington D.C.? I certainly did not.
Pulaski High School has a small marching band; it includes all high schoolers that want to join. There are 100 people in it and we go

The Image Of Blood In A Long Way Gone By Ishmael Beah
Ishmael Beah has been through just about everything a soldier in can experience while in war, and he wants to show how war is not a
good solution. If we do not take what he says into account, loved ones may be taken from us and have to experience what he once did
as a soldier. Or worse, our loved ones could be killed by one of the many destructions caused by war. The blood shed on the
battlefields of war could be our own if people don't listen to what Beah is trying to tell about war. Beah uses the image of blood
throughout this book to show why war is not a good answer. He could have lessened the image of blood if he wanted his take on war
to be portrayed differently. Blood was chosen as the image because the main purpose of war is to prevent future blood shed from
occurring, but it really just creates more casualties and more blood shed. By looking at the way Beah portrays the image of blood in
"A Long Way Gone", one can see that his view on war is not a positive one, which is important because the way Beah depicts war is
vital to Beah's story and the overall tone of the book.
In a village, at the time of a rebel attack, Beah sees a mother carrying her baby on her back. The baby is covered in blood, and its
mother is covered in her baby's blood. The baby plays a huge part in imagery in A Long Way Gone. "I see a mother carrying her dead
child on her back" (Beah pg. 13). Beah sees this horrific image himself. The baby was killed while a war scene was occurring in the

The Causes And Effects Of The Barbaric Mongols
The barbaric Mongols took over China by force in the 1220s killing millions, left many forts and villages in complete ruin, and their
barbaric fighting techniques helped them destroy almost all of the Song dynasty.
The inhumane Mongols slaughtered millions of citizens because the citizens would not surrender. A Franciscan emissary talked about
how deserting ruthless these situations the soldiers had to go through and deserting was a disgrace to your unit "When they are in
battle, if one or two or three or even more out of a group of ten run away, all are put to death; and if a whole group often flees, the rest
of the group of a hundred are all put to death, if they do not flee too. In a word, unless they retreat in a body, all who take flight are
put to death" (Plano Carpini 127). Here, we can see the barbaric mongols and how they would keep their soldiers in line to fight and
do the horrific things they have done to claim China. Also, the large Persian city Nishapur was reduced to almost nothing in the year
1221 and 1.7 million lost their lives because of this (Juvani 131). In this situation the barbaric Mongols killed not only the 3,000 men
army but also everyone one in the city, not even sparing dogs or cats. The barbaric mongols would hardly ever spared anyone while

The Yanomamo of the Amazon Basin Essay

Napoleon Chagnon has spent about 60 months since 1964 studying the 'foot people' of the Amazon Basin known as the Yanomamo.
In his ethnography, Yanomamo, he describes all of the events of his stay in the Venezuelan jungle. He describes the "hideous"
appearance of the Yanomamo men when first meeting them, and their never–ending demands for Chagnon's foreign goods, including
his food. There are many issues that arise when considering Chagnon's Yanomamo study. The withholding of genealogical
information by the tribesmen, and how Chagnon was able to obtain his information is an interesting and significant aspect of this
study. Why did Chagnon feel that this genealogical information was ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
He even increased the reward given to villagers who were willing to give genealogical information and therefore created a rapid craze
of helping villagers. This way, they were competing to give him information for their eventual rewards, not plotting against him. It
took him months to compile his accurate collection of genealogical data, and even after gathering most of it, he still needed his friend,
Rerebawa, to double–check most of it for him. He even went so far as to seek out other villages who had bad relations with Bisaasi–
teri to break the "name taboo" and give away names.
Chagnon felt that the most important aspect of his research in Bisaasi–teri was to collect genealogical information and organize the
marriages and relations between the villagers. This turned out to be his most difficult task, but nonetheless the most useful. He tells in
the very beginning of the ethnography that the Yanomamo are considered a very "primitive" societal organization of human beings.
The most obvious sign of primitive human life is simply the way the dress. In addition, their fickle nature, lack of industry, methods
of hunting and gathering, and political organization, contribute to their primitive nature.
As proved by anthropologists, primitive human life is essentially based on genealogy, marriage practices, kinship, settlement

Summary Of ' The Elephant 's The Village Of The Blind '
In the short story, The Elephant in the Village of the Blind, there are a group of blind villagers that come across a conflict amongst
themselves. The villagers are being introduced to an elephant for the first time in their lives. In curiosity, they all feel different parts
of the elephant, observing the different textures and body parts. As they discuss their different views and experiences from touching
the elephant their personal ideas created conflicts. As they disagree, it creates an interesting representation of human interaction. In
this story, the conflicts that arise between the villagers represent the small bubble of human observation and subjectivity, and how
much of human interaction is about competing to be correct in our beliefs because ego and self worth drive how we interact with each
other.
The villagers in the story represent different aspects of humans in society. One of the things they represent is ignorance. The first clue
the author gives that symbolizes their ignorance is by describing the setting to the story. The location in the village is "high in the
mountains" (line 1) in a "remote mountain village"(5). This displays that they are essentially isolated from the world and their peers.
With their blindness limiting their vision, and their apparent seclusion from the world, they are ignorant to the things going on around
them. The relationship between the villagers represent how humans believe that the things surrounding them are all there is in the

The Little, Big Village of Perrinton Michigan
Migrating from one place to another is never easy, especially when the overall experience and change is so drastic. Looking out the
window and having everything change can be scary. For example, when I was just a lad, about eleven years old, I moved from the
great big city of Athens, Georgia, to the little, big village called Perrinton, Michigan. Although it was very scary at first and I did not
like the big change; I did not like the location, or the smell, or the fact that everyone called soda "pop", or the fact that I had to beg
my parents to drive so long in order to get anywhere. I eventually came to love being in the quietness and contentment the
countryside gave me. From the research I have come across, it is quite apparent to me, that Perrinton has had many fans since day
one. Welcoming people from all over, year after year with its festivals, a school, and little businesses. Many businesses started up and
plenty of businesses burned down. Like many other small villages, Perrinton developed during time, and with time many things

The Middle Realms : The Village Of The Middle Realms
When you picture a normal medieval village, what do you think of, a small village with few buildings, mostly made of a mixture of
wood and mud. A simple people who go about their daily lives of farming and struggling to get by. Maybe a town militia? Made up of
the strongest men in the village, armed with bronze pitchforks and scythes.
All of this would describe Hearten village, a small village of about 60 residents on the edges of the Middenland empire bordering the
Dwarf Empire. Not heard of this place? That's because it's not on earth. No, the village we are talking about is in a place called the
Middle Realms.
it's a fantasy world, maybe a bit different from typical but all the things you need for a good fantasy world are there. Multiple sentient
races, magic, monsters and of course mighty heroes.
In village of Hearten there is a young boy, Lucas 14 years old, no last name like most commoners of the world. A normal boy in every
sense of the word, with short brown hair and brown eyes he works hard and dreams of being a hero like in the story's.
Except a change is about to take place, a great change that start small but one day reach the edges of the Middle realms and maybe
even beyond, effecting everyone there is to effect. Most importantly it will affect Lucas more than anyone could predict.

Two Men Arrive in a Village" (2016) written by Zadie Smith, is a short story following events that take place in a West African
Village, narrated by a woman belonging to that village. The story is a parable, which is a symbolic story told with the purpose of
teaching a spiritual lesson to its reader. "Two Men Arrive in a Village" tells the ever repeating account of two men arriving in a
village, striking fear into its people, killing, raping and stealing from the villagers who inhabit it. Smith constructed the narrative in
such a way that it traces a story that occurs in various locations at once, parallel to a specific situation, all taking place at the same
time. By doing this Smith weaves a specific story and a broad story together. While following the events in the African village,
Smith's story also encompasses a prevalent point, that men can feasibly appear at any location at any time bringing destruction with
them. The story begins with two seemingly friendly men arriving in a village. As the story unfolds the men become less friendly and
more detrimental, in the process of plowing through the village unleashing "bloody chaos". Even though the particular experience is
not the story that repeats itself, Smith's parable embodies the universal theme of power and violence all around the world. The men
reveal their true motives as soon as they walk around the village and begin to steal possessions, all the while denying their true
actions as "stealing". Despite the villagers' hospitality these visits always follow a pattern. After meals are finished and drinks are
sucked down Theft is their first and least serious offense. They start by walking around the village casually taking items as trivial as a
cigarette, followed by a sly deceitful "thank you". They will soon progress from pocket picking to looting homes taking whatever
they please, without running into confrontation from the villagers. The men will always steal from the villages, ransacking pockets or
houses taking anything from watches to women. The thefts come easily to the men because no one will ever dare to stop them. The
men continue on to prove their dangerous intent by slaughtering the people of the village, causing the once calm

Foreshadowing in Three Dirges Essay
Foreshadowing In "Three Dirges"
A sense of ominous foreboding permeates the woeful passage from "Three Dirges." The conflict is immediately apparent
: "Don Lazaro, you've got five boys in Comitan teaching the campesinos how to read. That's subversive. That's communist. So
tonight, you have to kill them." Don Lazaro, the mayor of the war torn village, San Martin Comitan, seems to have no choice but to
carry out this heartless command. His response is indicative of a desperate man searching for answers, yet already resigned to
carrying out the task at hand. "What can I say? ––you tell me!" cries an anguished Don Lazaro to the villagers. Is he pleading for their
understanding, or asking for a miraculous solution that would alter the path ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The feeling of fear and sadness is further portrayed by the crying of the village women, ". . . a woman's anguish pierced the still, early
morning, followed by yet a duet of wails, and then a full chorus of cries." Clearly, these women intuitively or otherwise , know of
wrenching torment awaiting the village. The somber mood continues with the procession of religious officials making their way to
the same destination as the wailing women. In contrast, however, the religious principales have assumed a formation of some sort;
"marching in six files, two abreast," ceremoniously fulfilling their obligation as if all hope had already eroded.
That hope further dissipated when the young men, now being led each by an older man, made their way to the cemetery. The
cemetery was an eery prediction of what was surely now about to happen. Don Lazaro has protested so much that there is nothing he
can do, it now borders on the pathetic. Does he know of some additional harm that would befall him if he doesn't carry out this
sinister plan? The young men, now willing to sacrifice their lives, and resigned to doing so, bravely meet their fate. "The five young
men, each escorted now by an older man, followed the cofrades over the ridge of the hill and dropped down on the other side just out
of sight." Certainly the reader can see that, with the movement of the young men out of sight, the terrible command is surely about to

there will be more capacity for other development. More lenders will want to invest in the country and more tourists will want to

Examples Of Escape In Slaughterhouse-Five
Abstract: This thesis attempts to analyse the relationship between physical and psychological escape as reflected in Su Tong's
"Fleeing in 1934", Yu Hua's "1986", and Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse–Five. Textual analysis reveals that Su Tong's delineation of
escape is external but the influence becomes internal as villagers' morality has been lost as a result of the escape, whereas Yu Hua and
Kurt Vonnegut's representation of escape emphasises on the psychical escape when both protagonists in the novels look for
derangement as a means of escape. Coincidently, the three novelists all agree on the same notion of the inescapability of history.

and the grass was richly green. The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and the bank, around

Warm and sunny summer days, blossoming flowers, and "richly green grass" (638) are all associated with happiness and peace. While
the definition of a lottery is simply "a process or thing whose success or outcome is governed by chance" (Lottery), the connotation of
the words typically involves winning something good, such as a large sum of money, which Jackson uses to further mislead the reader
into expecting something pleasant to come out of it. In addition, people typically think of villages as being wholesome, tight–knit

In 1949, many African nations began their surge for independence, and the native people did not accept the social modifications
forced upon them. The revelation of the setting comes through the name "Ndume Central School" which is a school located within
the African nation of Nigeria (595). Later, the setting reveals the deep divisions that take place in Africa at the time and allows the
reader to understand why the villagers resists change. The separation between the school and village symbolizes the division, and this
separation captures a modern school fighting a traditional village. Obi enforces the separation with the moving of the path and states
that this new path should "[skirt] our premises" (597). The setting enhances the conflict between the villagers and Obi because the
Africans at the time resisted the change that Obi enforced within the school. The setting of the school and village enhances the
conflict because the school represents the transformation of society, while the village captures the stubborn, old way of living.
Achebe produces a theme throughout "A Dead Man's Path" based on the conflict of change through the path, a barbed wire fence, a
biblical allusion, and setting throughout the story. The literary devices allow for the reader to establish a strong interpretation of the
effects of change and how people within society refuse to adapt from their traditional ways. This story accurately captures the

on a farm in the Kosugi hamlet of Yokogoshi, Niigata–a rural region almost 250km from the capital of Japan. Toshie was born in
1925–a year before the 64–year reign of Showa Era by Emperor Hirohito. This was a time when "two out of every ten babies died in

Her father, Kurakichi, made enough of an income to provide rice for his family throughout the year despite economic hardships and
its geographic location in northern Japan. (24). The Kosugi village, before the financial difficulties of the Great Depression in the
1930s, had "harmonious relations prevailing between landlords and tenants." (40). While the two million Japanese farmers were
unaware of "how dependent they were on market forces operating in distant lands,"(42) the collapse of the stock market in the United
States generated a domino effect on the Japanese silk industry. This affected the millions of small Japanese villagers, effectively
causing a devastating reduction of wages, and thus accelerating the unrest between landlords and tenants. Even before the rapid
industrialization of Japan in the mid–twentieth century, even small and isolated villages like that of Kosugi were unknowingly–or at
least amongst the farm villagers–connected to the urban cities of Japan and the world. When Japan entered the Asia–Pacific War
against China in 1937, there was "an unprecedented level of mutual involvement between the state and the daily lives of ordinary
villagers." (60). The Sakaues, like many other families, sent off their sons to the military. Toshie, too, participated in the war efforts

Overall the affect was very convincing and the villagers' fear of these beasts kept them content with their way of life, overall
maintaining it. But as is the way of life there was bound to be a hitch that if not repair could ultimately lead to the town's demise.

Indian communities participated in ejidos, communal land that belonged to no one person in particular. This was a tradition that had

Goldsmith saw many incidents of rustic towns and beautiful countryside being completely destroyed for the benefit of the wealthier

powerful and argumentative poem. The village of Auburn has been ruined by depopulation and the peasants that have been forced out
of this small rural village have been left with no other choice but to flee to America in search of a better and more comfortable life.
This poem is also based on the arrival of wealthy landlords to England with the intent to gain control of the poorer surrounding areas;
it is clear from reading the poem that Goldsmith was not in favour of the social changes that were in occurrence. The social changes
that he refers to are the Enclosure acts and indeed the early effects of the industrial revolution. Goldsmith does not like the effects of
enclosure on rural life, it is clear that he is passionate about old traditions and does not like when they are altered and replaced by a
way of life that is consumed by power and wealth. Goldsmith strongly believes that all the wealthy people in the world are corrupt

Village members unite under the same reality by their equal understandings of experiences and symbols. Without similar
understandings of these elements, there would not be a common reality in which where the village would exist. Reality is produced

The center of the Ritual View is communication and the goal of this theory is for the meaning to sustain over time in order to become
society's reality. With an emphasis on identity and common experiences it then focuses on what happens after the message is
conveyed from the sender to the receiver, encoding and decoding. In order to maintain this story the same language and story must be
used regularly and repeatedly. If a story is challenged it has to be repaired and return to the earlier status quo or reality. The encoders
and the decoders participate in the reality, where they decide whether or not they believe it to be true. However the ritual view of

I would not say that it is a problem, but there are definitely advantages and disadvantages to urbanization. The advantages can be that
the country will be more economically competitive as contrasted to other which are not so developed countries. It will also have more
cleaner and more efficient manufacturing and will be more potential in controlling their resources. In addition, when the country is
very developed, they will be very successful to safeguard themselves. When more people live in cities or upper class apartments,
there will be more capacity for other development. More lenders will want to invest in the country and more tourists will want to
come to the country, because of these factors. The disadvantages of urbanization are– the air quality of the area will certainly be
affected, because of the smoke from the exhaust of vehicles and the pollutants from the factories. This may affect the health of the
people living in the cities. The environment of the country may also be affected by the country's

  • 1. Essay on How Did Sohan Lal Effectively Manage Village Affairs 1. How did Sohan Lal effectively manage village affairs, despite any formal education in management? Support your answers with specific situations from the case. How did Sohan Lal, the chairman of Sitara managed to become an important person in the village despite his lack of education? With creativity. Sohan Lal is a very creative person not only does he manage to resolve different kinds of situations but also manages to get the support of different entities, organisations and people with persuasion and determination. Sohan Lal always keeps in mind his main objective which is to: "ensure the sustainable rural development of the village". A good example of persuasion and determination is when Sohan Lal personally went to visit some ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This will ensure transparency within the members of the Panchayat as the fieldworkers will constantly have a say about the different projects in the village. During these meetings, another suggestion would be for Sohan Lal to present a minimum of four different projects that would be voted by all the members. This will ensure that the allocation given by the MNREGA would not go to waste, as they will take the project number 2 if a problem arises. The idea of including the fieldworkers during the numerous meetings is a way to give them the opportunity of choosing what projects they want to work on to improve the quality of life of all the population. Finally, another suggestion would be for Sohan Lal and his team to make sure that there is a strong system of justice in the village. It is important for the population to know that there are rules to follow in the village, and to set balance of the rights and obligations each members of the society have. 3. What was the dilemma faced by Sohan Lal in relation to the pond renovation project? The MNREGA accepted to give an allocation to the village so that Sohan Lal and his team can manage to renovate the pond using an excavator loader machine called a JCB (funds that need to be use for a purpose of rural development activities only). The JCB machine would do most of the excavating work. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The Neolithic Village: A Short Story It was the last hour of the day and all the members of the Neolithic village gathered in the center of the village to hear a story from one of the oldest villagers. The sun cast a gloomy orange color over the village and a cool autumns breeze tossed the leaves of the trees back and forth. The old man was sitting in a handcrafted chair by a bond fire with dozens of eager ears sitting around him. He began, "Many years ago when I was but a young lad, before villages and farms before carpentry and mining I was the child of a Lascaux cave painter," he said. Someone Interrupted, "Life must have been easy! Just going wherever you wanted doing what ever you wanted!" The old man laughed, "Now you just wait boy, life may have been simple, but not easy."

Waited on the other side of the woods for escaping animals, but instead wolves came rampaging out of the burning trees. They began attacking us; I was gripped with fear when I was sprung on from behind. I screamed for help but to no avail. I took the arrows from my bag and drove them into the animal, it looked at me with red eyes and took one final swipe at my face before it fell to the ground with a whimpering cry." He closed his eyes and ran his shaking hand over a scar across his face. He continued "One day we entered a land of prosperity, a land flooded with wheat and barley, with rich soil and a large stream with fresh water. We camped there for three days in our tents. We began to make bread out of the wheat and barley and built houses out of mud, but there were only 15 of us so during the day we would go hunting and return to camp and have bread made by the ones who stayed ...

Today's life has many difficulties and people are the victims, so they plan to make it easy as they canother. So they can reach a good position. They have more friends in the community since it is small. The village people always try to protect their traditional habits and culture. The village has clean air and the environment is very beautiful. The village has less noise and rush. So the pollution is less. The village has not lot of vehicles. So roads are less dangerous for driving cycling. They can get fresh vegetables and fresh fruits. The environment of the village is pleasant and silent and it has scenic beauty.

Although living in the city has many advantages there are some disadvantages too, the cost of the living is very high in the city, the city is always noisy, no fresh air and pure water. So it is hard to lead a healthy life. On other hand the village the undeveloped area for example, we cannot easily get many facilities the insufficient medical and education facilities, few opportunities to make money, little entertainment, no or little public transportation, also less facilities than a big city offers. Over all there are some similarities between both locations with big differences. But for each lives there is lovers who cannot switches lives to the other city, at the end, I see that Living in a village near the city is the best way to combine the benefits of this two lives. City Life Vs Village Life "who can describe the pleasures and delight, the peace of mind and soft tranquity One would feel in the balmy air, green hills and rich woods of a village."–these Lines are rightly said by great English writer–"Charles dickens". villages are generally very beautiful with green hills, clean air and peace. In villages people care and help each other. Cities are normally very crowded places as compared to Villages. In the city, one might not have the privacy that one wish for.

There seems to be trouble and we must put an end to any disturbance that could lead to danger." Tsunade, the fifth Hokage said. "Neji, you will be team leader." "Yes, my lady." Neji said politely. "This mission was sent to us by the Hikage, the Sun Shadow, greet him as if he were any other kage." "Does the Sun even have a shadow?" Tenten asked. The three headed out, swiftly moving through the forest as smoothly as the fish glide through rivers. "What is the Land of Summer anyways? Isn 't summer just a season?" Tenten questioned. "I 'm not sure, I suppose we 'll find out." Neji answered. "I hear it is the land where the sun shines brightly everyday." Shino added. "Wow! Wouldn 't that be beautiful!" Tenten exclaimed. The three continued their journey across the land, eventually crossing the border from the Land of Fire to the Land of Earth. Noticing the beautiful scenario as they ventured out into the new land. As they scoured this strange area, they began to speed up their pace. They were having second thoughts about this land and wished to bypass the forest quickly. It was strange however, for they had always moved through forests with no sign of fear, or any kind of suspicion. However, this time they felt different, as though all the Land of Earth civilians had peered into their souls. Nonetheless, the journey must continue, and the three held back their ...

  • 11. The Village Blacksmith, The Crowd Of Wild Olive What is human dignity? We often ask ourselves this question as we grow up, experience things, and know what is in the world. As we ask this question other questions arise as such, is it earned, invented, or intrinsic? I believe it depends on the situation, but the following stories bring up each of these questions and deliver different ways of delivering the ideas of human dignity being earned, invented, or intrinsic. The Village Blacksmith, The Crowd of Wild Olive, Narrative of the life of Fredrick Douglas all bring up these points and others as well as how different life situations relate to human dignity. The Village Blacksmith is a poem about a man that works very hard each day. He is dirty and sweaty from his hard work. The characters arms are compared to a machine of sorts when the author says, "The smith a mighty man is he, With large and sinewy hands; And the muscles of his brawny arms Are strong as iron bands." (596). Although rough, and hardworking the story shows that the man has human dignity when he hears his daughter singing in church and it reminds him of his wife who has passed away and begins to tear up. He wipes away his tears with his rough hard working hands. In my opinion, this shows that even though a man is rough, hard working, and tough he can still have the human dignity to mourn his late wife and have the emotion that comes from hearing his wife 's voice in his daughter, but still be able to work ...

The Community Of A Virtual Village As a part of the "virtual village" project volunteer, our aim was to research about our community regarding necessities of older adults, their accessibility to healthcare, and overall what resources are available for them that make their life easy to live. Our group decided to focus on Edgewater Community to understand older adults' needs. This service learning experience has had a significant impact on my professional development. During the experience, I had an opportunity meet with many health professionals and community leaders in the Edgewater Community. I learned about many health professionals working to assist older population in the Edgewater community. For example, On Nov 5th Thursday, I went to Care for Real food Pantry with my group members, and met the Executive Director of the organization, Allen Lyle. Lyle provided some backgrounds of the company and mentioned how the organization makes difference in senior's life. Also, my communication skills have been improved during the service learning activity as I interacted with healthcare leaders, participants, and group members. Ms. Monica Dillon provided us instructions and guidelines to follow while contacting community leaders. In order to reach leaders of the organization, we went over strategies and guidelines provided for contacting the leaders and made sure to follow the steps. By reaching out to the organizations' leaders and interacting with them, I think I have also developed the skills of leadership for my ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

It's an unusual thing for a colored man to be present among us so it's safe to assume that this man is dangerous. He arrived here in a village solely with no passengers nor a captain and that has raised my suspicions. He came from Central Europe by some means he dot driven by a storm. What struck me the most is –when the creature was crawling out of the sea he rolled down into a sea dike–how did he survive because most like people who end up on the opposite side of a sea dike, normally have a severe injury. There's only one explanation for this adequately lunacy demeanor–he's different from ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... It is necessary that we avert this beast from our village before he does anymore damage. Every aspect of this madman was placed under scrutiny and only bad things can come from being close to him. I advise you all, villagers of Eastbay, to avert this madman. This has brought my deepest level of caution, as through my source of information, there has been report that the beast has been in contact with the women in the village. There comes fear that the beast will now impose his primitive culture upon us, leaving us no choice, but reimbursement of hostility towards that deviled beast. This colored beast had the audacity to enter our village without any ratification, with open arms, we provide him the tenants of the pillars of conformity, and he twists at every unimaginable turn that we impose upon him. Well, the blood of my veins points sharp, this cannot be of more hault, rather haste action. My advisement to all of you who supports the foundation of this very village, is to rise against these primates and take action to bring back sanity among the village. The first step among this is annihilation, beginning with the expunging of the so–called beast... The time for action begins with the first blow! However, my reasoning tells me, that the riddance of the beast will not be an easy path, and that we must make slow turns, in order to get rid of the 'fifth' of this village. He's seemed to evoke the sympathy of some of our women. Therefore, getting rid of him swiftly, would knock away the consciousness of our village. The only way this problem can resolve itself is to expunge this beast, cast him away. This village is not known to be friendly with those who do not follow the ordeals of our existence. The only place he belongs is the midst of the forest, where no sounds transgress the ears of men known to civilization. Thus, I suggest, that once he is unconscious through the ...

  • 17. Themes Of Necttar In The Village Modernisation to the Village The way of living of people in villages is the culture of a society. Village way of life in India is considered to be full of cultural rituals and beliefs. People mostly work on plantations to earn a living for themselves and the family. Whereas modernization is the current term for an old process, the process of social change whereby less developed societies acquire characteristics common to more developed societies. This essay will discuss a theme of Nectar in a Sieve which is the tension between modernization and traditional ways of life. It will also discuss how different characters respond to elements that represent the coming of the modern world to the village. To begin with, Rukmani's curiousness on the arrival of the men to build tannery, changed to anger as she saw the effect of tannery on the village's way of life. Rukmani and some of the onlookers are somewhat taken aback when the newcomers boldly told them what to do in their own village. When at long last the tannery is finished, some people are unhappy to see the workers go, but Rukmani is not. She says, "They had invaded our village with clatter and din, had taken from us the maidan where our ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Nathan's hopes are crushed when his son, Thambi points out that he never did, and never will, own the land. However, Nathan was assuring Rukmani that the tannery was there to stay. He encourages her to go with the flow, saying "Bend like the grass, that you do not break" (Markandaya, 20). Seeing the negativity of Rukmani, Nathan was only comforting her with the truth of life. Nathan bears the results of the strike at the tannery more graciously than anyone. He declares that their children must do what they do for their benefit, not for their parents.

  • 19. Cultural Changes From The 1960 ' S Conrad Phillip Kottak has visited the small village of Arembepe numerous times over the years. His visits were frequent, but spaced out over a couple years, which caused him to begin to notice some very dramatic changes from the Arembepe he came to know. The development of a more stratified society caused for some major changes coming to the small community. This essay is going to address the major cultural changes from the 1960's to the 1980's and whether or not the suburbanization of this village community was good or bad. Arembepe in the 1960's consisted of only 159 households (730 people), which made up the small village community. Malnutrition, poor public health, and high infant mortality struck the village during this time. Traveling to and from Arembepe proved difficult because it lacked paved roads. Hardly any people ever visited the village, which is why Kottak often referred to it as being isolated from the rest of the world. Having no electricity in the village also proved a real struggle for communication to the outside world. 74% of men in Arembepe worked as fishermen and 11% worked in business (Kottak 50). In order to make a good living, it was very common for men to have more than one job. Women would cook, clean, make items for fishing, and help run stores. Overall, Arembepe in the 1960's was not a stratified society, but that was soon going to change. All Arembepeiros were baptized as Catholics, so prior to the 1980's, Arembepe was mostly ritual free. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 21. Analysis Of Cosmopolitism In Things Fall Apart By Chinua... It is unbelievable to think that an action of what a person does in the present, can either lead to nothing or it can become a catastrophe event. In Things Fall Apart, Achebe writes about the Nigerian culture through the events that happen to the main character which is Okonkowo. In Cosmopolitism, Appiah writes about the different values, morals, and cultures people in the world have and how people can live together despite having differences. The event that could have had a different outcome was when the Abmae elders decided to execute the white missionary man and later on the group of white people massacred the Abmae village. If the characters in the event were more cosmopolitan with the concept of understanding each other and uncalled–for punishment, then the event could have been a different outcome. When one applies Appiah's idea of understanding each other and uncalled–for punishment in Cosmopolitism to the event in Things Fall Apart, the event changes to when the elders would not have executed the white missionary man and therefore there would be no massacre from the group of white people. When the white man riding a bicycle came to the Abmae village, the villagers were horrified to see a foreigner. The white man who came to Abmae did not cause any harm to the villagers and yet the elders of the Abmae village decided to execute the white man. The villagers did not try to understand why the white man was here for. In Cosmopolitism, Appiah states "One truth we hold ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

You might have heard small murmurs of the town over the news because of five feet of snow, or due to an increase of salmon swimming upstream. Most of its income comes from the annual salmon run that attracts thousands of fisherman to the river where the fishing is easy. Most people outside Central New York has never heard of Pulaski, unless they are fishermen. Even now in Utica, not even an hour and a half away, the village seems to not exist in people's minds. I have to relate its position to in between Watertown and Syracuse. My graduating class was around 80 kids, not even enough people to fill a movie theater.

  • 27. The Image Of Blood In A Long Way Gone By Ishmael Beah Ishmael Beah has been through just about everything a soldier in can experience while in war, and he wants to show how war is not a good solution. If we do not take what he says into account, loved ones may be taken from us and have to experience what he once did as a soldier. Or worse, our loved ones could be killed by one of the many destructions caused by war. The blood shed on the battlefields of war could be our own if people don't listen to what Beah is trying to tell about war. Beah uses the image of blood throughout this book to show why war is not a good answer. He could have lessened the image of blood if he wanted his take on war to be portrayed differently. Blood was chosen as the image because the main purpose of war is to prevent future blood shed from occurring, but it really just creates more casualties and more blood shed. By looking at the way Beah portrays the image of blood in "A Long Way Gone", one can see that his view on war is not a positive one, which is important because the way Beah depicts war is vital to Beah's story and the overall tone of the book. In a village, at the time of a rebel attack, Beah sees a mother carrying her baby on her back. The baby is covered in blood, and its mother is covered in her baby's blood. The baby plays a huge part in imagery in A Long Way Gone. "I see a mother carrying her dead child on her back" (Beah pg. 13). Beah sees this horrific image himself.

The Causes And Effects Of The Barbaric Mongols The barbaric Mongols took over China by force in the 1220s killing millions, left many forts and villages in complete ruin, and their barbaric fighting techniques helped them destroy almost all of the Song dynasty. The inhumane Mongols slaughtered millions of citizens because the citizens would not surrender. A Franciscan emissary talked about how deserting ruthless these situations the soldiers had to go through and deserting was a disgrace to your unit "When they are in battle, if one or two or three or even more out of a group of ten run away, all are put to death; and if a whole group often flees, the rest of the group of a hundred are all put to death, if they do not flee too. In a word, unless they retreat in a body, all who take flight are put to death" (Plano Carpini 127). Here, we can see the barbaric mongols and how they would keep their soldiers in line to fight and do the horrific things they have done to claim China. Also, the large Persian city Nishapur was reduced to almost nothing in the year 1221 and 1.7 million lost their lives because of this (Juvani 131). In this situation the barbaric Mongols killed not only the 3,000 men army but also everyone one in the city, not even sparing dogs or cats.

In his ethnography, Yanomamo, he describes all of the events of his stay in the Venezuelan jungle. He describes the "hideous" appearance of the Yanomamo men when first meeting them, and their never–ending demands for Chagnon's foreign goods, including his food. There are many issues that arise when considering Chagnon's Yanomamo study.

He even increased the reward given to villagers who were willing to give genealogical information and therefore created a rapid craze of helping villagers. This way, they were competing to give him information for their eventual rewards, not plotting against him. It took him months to compile his accurate collection of genealogical data, and even after gathering most of it, he still needed his friend, Rerebawa, to double–check most of it for him. He even went so far as to seek out other villages who had bad relations with Bisaasi– teri to break the "name taboo" and give away names. Chagnon felt that the most important aspect of his research in Bisaasi–teri was to collect genealogical information and organize the marriages and relations between the villagers. This turned out to be his most difficult task, but nonetheless the most useful. He tells in the very beginning of the ethnography that the Yanomamo are considered a very "primitive" societal organization of human beings. The most obvious sign of primitive human life is simply the way the dress. In addition, their fickle nature, lack of industry, methods of hunting and gathering, and political organization, contribute to their primitive nature. As proved by anthropologists, primitive human life is essentially based on genealogy, marriage practices, kinship, settlement arrangements and political affairs. It was through ...

Summary Of ' The Elephant 's The Village Of The Blind ' In the short story, The Elephant in the Village of the Blind, there are a group of blind villagers that come across a conflict amongst themselves. The villagers are being introduced to an elephant for the first time in their lives. In curiosity, they all feel different parts of the elephant, observing the different textures and body parts. As they discuss their different views and experiences from touching the elephant their personal ideas created conflicts. As they disagree, it creates an interesting representation of human interaction. In this story, the conflicts that arise between the villagers represent the small bubble of human observation and subjectivity, and how much of human interaction is about competing to be correct in our beliefs because ego and self worth drive how we interact with each other. The villagers in the story represent different aspects of humans in society. One of the things they represent is ignorance. The first clue the author gives that symbolizes their ignorance is by describing the setting to the story. The location in the village is "high in the mountains" (line 1) in a "remote mountain village"(5). This displays that they are essentially isolated from the world and their peers. With their blindness limiting their vision, and their apparent seclusion from the world, they are ignorant to the things going on around them.

  • 41. Zadie Smith's 'Two Men Arrive In A Village' Two Men Arrive in a Village" (2016) written by Zadie Smith, is a short story following events that take place in a West African Village, narrated by a woman belonging to that village. The story is a parable, which is a symbolic story told with the purpose of teaching a spiritual lesson to its reader. "Two Men Arrive in a Village" tells the ever repeating account of two men arriving in a village, striking fear into its people, killing, raping and stealing from the villagers who inhabit it. Smith constructed the narrative in such a way that it traces a story that occurs in various locations at once, parallel to a specific situation, all taking place at the same time. By doing this Smith weaves a specific story and a broad story together. While following the events in the African village, Smith's story also encompasses a prevalent point, that men can feasibly appear at any location at any time bringing destruction with them. The story begins with two seemingly friendly men arriving in a village. As the story unfolds the men become less friendly and more detrimental, in the process of plowing through the village unleashing "bloody chaos". Even though the particular experience is not the story that repeats itself, Smith's parable embodies the universal theme of power and violence all around the world. The men reveal their true motives as soon as they walk around the village and begin to steal possessions, all the while denying their true actions as "stealing". Despite the villagers' hospitality these visits always follow a pattern. After meals are finished and drinks are sucked down Theft is their first and least serious offense. They start by walking around the village casually taking items as trivial as a cigarette, followed by a sly deceitful "thank you". They will soon progress from pocket picking to looting homes taking whatever they please, without running into confrontation from the villagers. The men will always steal from the villages, ransacking pockets or houses taking anything from watches to women. The thefts come easily to the men because no one will ever dare to stop them.

The somber mood continues with the procession of religious officials making their way to the same destination as the wailing women. In contrast, however, the religious principales have assumed a formation of some sort; "marching in six files, two abreast," ceremoniously fulfilling their obligation as if all hope had already eroded. That hope further dissipated when the young men, now being led each by an older man, made their way to the cemetery. The cemetery was an eery prediction of what was surely now about to happen.

Village people have strange rituals that show how dangerous tradition can be when innocent villager believe or follow it blindly.

They have strong traditions that have to follow by all villager. The villager blindly accepts the lottery and the ritual to murder anyone with their own paper that they have put in the box.

Examples Of Escape In Slaughterhouse-Five Abstract: This thesis attempts to analyse the relationship between physical and psychological escape as reflected in Su Tong's "Fleeing in 1934", Yu Hua's "1986", and Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse–Five. Textual analysis reveals that Su Tong's delineation of escape is external but the influence becomes internal as villagers' morality has been lost as a result of the escape, whereas Yu Hua and Kurt Vonnegut's representation of escape emphasises on the psychical escape when both protagonists in the novels look for derangement as a means of escape. Coincidently, the three novelists all agree on the same notion of the inescapability of history. Keywords: escape, trauma, Fleeing in 1934, 1986, Slaughterhouse–five.

In "Dead Man's Path," Chinua Achebe creates a changing society and presents a group of people who are unwilling to change their way of life and adapt. Achebe uses symbols, allusions, characters, and setting development to give the reader an interpretation of the changes made throughout society that creates a conflict between a new generation and an old generation.

In 1949, many African nations began their surge for independence, and the native people did not accept the social modifications forced upon them. The revelation of the setting comes through the name "Ndume Central School" which is a school located within the African nation of Nigeria (595). Later, the setting reveals the deep divisions that take place in Africa at the time and allows the reader to understand why the villagers resists change. The separation between the school and village symbolizes the division, and this separation captures a modern school fighting a traditional village. Obi enforces the separation with the moving of the path and states that this new path should "[skirt] our premises" (597). The setting enhances the conflict between the villagers and Obi because the Africans at the time resisted the change that Obi enforced within the school. The setting of the school and village enhances the conflict because the school represents the transformation of society, while the village captures the stubborn, old way of living. Achebe produces a theme throughout "A Dead Man's Path" based on the conflict of change through the path, a barbed wire fence, a biblical allusion, and setting throughout the story. The literary devices allow for the reader to establish a strong interpretation of the effects of change and how people within society refuse to adapt from their traditional ways. This story accurately captures the struggle between a new generation and traditional way of life. Even with forced modernization, the refusal of change causes conflict in an ever–changing ...

In Toshie: A Story of Village Life in Twentieth–Century Japan, published in 2004, author Simon Partner offers an insight on the transformation that underwent Japan through the mid–twentieth century through the life of Sakaue Toshie, a woman born and raised on a farm in the Kosugi hamlet of Yokogoshi, Niigata–a rural region almost 250km from the capital of Japan. Toshie was born in 1925–a year before the 64–year reign of Showa Era by Emperor Hirohito. This was a time when "two out of every ten babies died in childbirth or infancy,"(1) and Toshie's family, who were poor tenant farmers renting a mere one acre of land, "were not far above"(2) those that were "literally unable to support themselves."(2).

Her father, Kurakichi, made enough of an income to provide rice for his family throughout the year despite economic hardships and its geographic location in northern Japan. (24). The Kosugi village, before the financial difficulties of the Great Depression in the 1930s, had "harmonious relations prevailing between landlords and tenants." (40). While the two million Japanese farmers were unaware of "how dependent they were on market forces operating in distant lands,"(42) the collapse of the stock market in the United States generated a domino effect on the Japanese silk industry. This affected the millions of small Japanese villagers, effectively causing a devastating reduction of wages, and thus accelerating the unrest between landlords and tenants. Even before the rapid industrialization of Japan in the mid–twentieth century, even small and isolated villages like that of Kosugi were unknowingly–or at least amongst the farm villagers–connected to the urban cities of Japan and the world. When Japan entered the Asia–Pacific War against China in 1937, there was "an unprecedented level of mutual involvement between the state and the daily lives of ordinary villagers." (60). The Sakaues, like many other families, sent off their sons to the military. Toshie, too, participated in the war efforts ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Quite often lies are integrated into society in order to manipulate the minds of the receiver(s) and ultimately shape the community in a particular way. The Village a 2004 by M. Night Shyamalen is indicative of this fact. A culture (even one based on fear) can flourish through use of ritual communication.

Beasts that were attracted to the color red and repelled by yellow and so traditions began of avoiding red even to the point of burying crimson flowers that blossomed. Stakes with yellow flags marked the perimeter of the village and those who kept watch wore cloaks of yellow. Overall the affect was very convincing and the villagers' fear of these beasts kept them content with their way of life, overall maintaining it. But as is the way of life there was bound to be a hitch that if not repair could ultimately lead to the town's demise. Lucius Hunt was a man that had no fear of these beasts that kept the society running. His lack of fear even led him to ask permission to leave the village to retrieve medicines that would improve the life of the townsfolk. Unsurprisingly the Elders were stirred; Lucius' open mind and lack of fear for his own safety could prove dangerous to the conservation of their world. With the best of intentions they struck even more terror into the villagers' hearts. Finally Lucius breaks but not because he fears for his own safety but for the welfare of his beloved Ivy Walker. Unbeknownst to him, his bravery has given courage to Ivy and when Lucius falls close to death it is Ivy who seeks help to save him.

Prior to European intervention, Indian communities participated in ejidos, communal land that belonged to no one person in particular. This was a tradition that had been in practice for decades prior. Once the Europeans began to intervene in Indigenous villages, the practice of communal lands began to disappear. This was a result of reform laws passed by the Porfirian dictatorship, going into practice in the second half of the 1800s. Through these measures the area saw major change, to the Indigenous population this was not positive change.

Goldsmith saw many incidents of rustic towns and beautiful countryside being completely destroyed for the benefit of the wealthier community (Rowley 132). These incidents that he was witness to inspired him to write 'The Deserted Village' which is an extremely powerful and argumentative poem. The village of Auburn has been ruined by depopulation and the peasants that have been forced out of this small rural village have been left with no other choice but to flee to America in search of a better and more comfortable life. This poem is also based on the arrival of wealthy landlords to England with the intent to gain control of the poorer surrounding areas; it is clear from reading the poem that Goldsmith was not in favour of the social changes that were in occurrence. The social changes that he refers to are the Enclosure acts and indeed the early effects of the industrial revolution. Goldsmith does not like the effects of enclosure on rural life, it is clear that he is passionate about old traditions and does not like when they are altered and replaced by a way of life that is consumed by power and wealth. Goldsmith strongly believes that all the wealthy people in the world are corrupt and this is evident throughout this poem; he thinks the wealthier community are malevolent and that they do not take the poorer people of England into ...

The center of the Ritual View is communication and the goal of this theory is for the meaning to sustain over time in order to become society's reality. With an emphasis on identity and common experiences it then focuses on what happens after the message is conveyed from the sender to the receiver, encoding and decoding. In order to maintain this story the same language and story must be used regularly and repeatedly. If a story is challenged it has to be repaired and return to the earlier status quo or reality. The encoders and the decoders participate in the reality, where they decide whether or not they believe it to be true.
