Interspersed within the fighting battalions were architects, philosophers, scribes, musicians, and educators whose whole duty was to spread the culture to those who were conquered. Some of these strategies were the establishment of Greek cities, Greek schools (Gymnasia), and commanding the Greek language as the official language for government and the de facto language for commerce. Many people began to give their children Greek names, and local styles of art and architecture began to imitate Greek models. Even some of the Jewish High Priests took Greek names. All of this wa s not a good turn of events for Israel since the Greek culture was very ungodly and humanistic. Despite the bright and promising future ahead of him, Alexander met an unexpected death in Babylon at the age of 32 and though one will like to believe that all that he stood for will now be in vain, the case was not so but rather what he initiated had only just begun.

SOC201 Session Long Project: Module 3 – Social Structure Group Conformity and the Decriminalization of Marijuana On December 6th, 2012, the state of Washington legalized the use and possession of marijuana by adults over the age of 21. There were already laws in place to provide for the medical use of marijuana before this date, therefore this new initiative (Initiative 502) pertained mainly to recreational marijuana users. According to a statement issued by the U.S. Attorney’s Office the day prior to the law going into effect, â€Å"The Department of Justice is reviewing the legalization initiatives recently passed in Colorado and Washington State. The Departments responsibility to enforce the Controlled Substances Act remains unchanged.†¦show more content†¦Group Polarization and the Decriminalization of Marijuana People who identify with each other as a group to achieve a common goal are indeed a force to be reckoned with in a democratic society. However, they can also be rallied together in a way that also seeks to limit personal freedom in a republican government such as the United States. This was demonstrated in 1937 as the elected officials of the U.S. government chose to lead the prohibition of the use and possession of marijuana under the pretense that the version of the active ingredient used in medicine and the same ingredient smoked produced drastically dissimilar effects. The source of information used in the arguments for the prohibition of marijuana were also unorthodox. In one excerpt from the House Hearing regarding the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937, the Representative from Michigan stated â€Å"We know that is a habit that is spreading, particularly among youngsters. We learn that from the pages of the newspaper. You say that Michigan has always regulated it. We have a state law, but we do not seem to be able to get anywhere with it, because, as I have said, the habit is growing. The member of victims is increasing each year.† The response from Dr. William C. Woodward, the representative of the American Medical Association responded with the statement, â€Å"There is no evidence of that.† His account went largely unheard during this hearing, as the House had

The Environment Where Public Administration Is Being...

The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how challenging the environment where public administration is being implemented can be in countries that are just developing. The importance of governments and public administrators in these countries is high. They play a very important role when it comes to sustaining new development and maintain economic growth. The main roles of a government are to protect the environment, reduce socio-economic inequality, combat poverty, and support both social and private sector development, among others. The only way governments can accomplish this is to strengthen the public administrators in order to fulfill these need and ensure that expectations are met. An example of an environment this essay will delve into will be the sub-Saharan African environment. This environment in particular is affected by massive amounts of debt, poverty, HIV/AIDS, other diseases, famine, corruption throughout the government and violations of human rights. Sub-Saharan Africa is home to the world’s largest number of people living with HIV/AIDS. This region faces a disaster if not fixed soon. This epidemic has stopped the development and economic growth in that region. While this is taking place in the sub-Saharan region of Africa, the entire continent is struggling. For developing countries, there is mostly corruption in the government by public officials and therefore it is difficult to have a stable government that can help it to grow.

AOD Support Intervention for Socially Responsible Leadership

Question: Discuss about theAOD Support Intervention for Socially Responsible Leadership. Answer: Introduction In the case, the patient is a 26 year old single male, named Reese, who is facing the issues related to the Alcohol and other Drug and visited the AOD counselling for receiving the guidance and to deal with the issue which is affecting the concerned life and routine. Reese is single and lives with his mother and brother in the apartment. Reese works part time in a store and is addicted towards the excessive intake of the Alcohol when at home. According to Reese after he is drunk he becomes quite aggressive in his behaviour and starts yelling at his brother and mother and loses his temper with throwing the things around the house. Reese is in the habbit of drinking for the whole day when he is at home and cannot manage his booze. Reese told that he started drinking when he was in his eight grades and was 13 years old. At a time when the kids were discussing their higher classes, Resse was trying out to figure from where he could get his bottle of drink. He is in habit of drinking whol e night 3-4 bottles of beer with the few shots of the vodka and on the weekends he uses to party hard. Reese says he loves to mix the drinks and have them and his favourite drug is methamphetamine or Speed. Reese in his younger age also visited the physiatrist and was put on Ritalin for the ADD that is attention deficient disorder. In the information provided by the Reese, it is observed that he moved from the recreational stage of the drug use towards the habitual stage of consuming the drug. Strength based therapy The high-quality treatment plan is an inclusive set of strategies and tools which may help to identify and address the strengths of the Reese and also the deficits and the issues. The treatment plan helps to present an approach for the resources, sequencing and identifying the standard of improvement to direct evaluation (Hastings, 2016). During the AOD counselling for the AOD issues of the Reese will include the strength based therapy. Such therapy may help in the counselling of the Reesce in a better way with the AOD issue and getting the resolution for such issues. The Strengths-based practice therapy in the AOD issue is a two-way practice between the individual supported by the services and also among the individuals supporting them, allowing the counsellor and patient to effort together for determining a result which draws the individual assets and strengths (Mcilwraith, Kinner Najman, 2011). Applying the strength based therapy in the treatment plan will benefit Reese and suppo rts him in the recovery. Such therapy will help in increasing the internal strength and capabilities of the individual affected form the AOD, which helps in resolving the issues and delivering his own solutions for the issues. Such approach of the therapy in the treatment plan will be successful in shifting the balance of care and developing the services which are focused on the independence and prevention (Mcilwraith, Kinner Najman, 2011).. As a counsellor through the strength based therapy a formalized structure can be developed that requires participation from Reese and also from the family members and the community (Hastings, 2016).Educational sessions, social interventional gatherings and meetings act to be conducted among Resse and his family members where practitioners act as the part of dignified structure (Amaral, Saitz Souza, 2010). With the help of such therapy, Reese will be set with a certain goal which will help him to fight with the issue and to empower him with personal strength add aid recovery. Such goals will also help him to focus on his health and well being and to remain away from the excessive drinking habit (Padesky Mooney, 2012). As a practitioner to deal with the AOD issue of the Reese will primarily focus on the deficit and the issue which lead to the excessive consumption of the alcohol and will also recognise the inherent resources which may help him in the disposal of such habit of drinking. The strength based therapy will help Reese in identifying his exceptional set of abilities and strengths on which he can depend for overcoming the deficits or the problems related to the AOD (Padesky Mooney, 2012). As a practitioner will focus mainly on the Reese desires, strengths, interests, abilities, knowledge, and aspirations and not on the problems, deficits, weaknesses, or needs that are observed by the others (Odell, 2008). Such therapy will help to assist the clients to recognise and reaching a precise estimate of their individual strengths ought to emphasize, but not limited with the intention of an appropriate to recovery. The strengths assessment will help in determining the interests of the client or the things that inspire him or with the identification of such things where the client is having the brain of pride. Therapeutic community settings frequently recognize precise roles in the treatment environment with the purpose where Reese can acquire his own strengths and also work in developing it further (Odell, 2008). Such recognising his strength will divert him toward such goal of life and to fight with the habit of excessive drinking. Will ask him to focus on his strengths and to work in such direction and with the slowly reduce the alcohol consumption. With the recognition of such strength keep him busy in certain communal activities which will help in avoiding alcohol. Conclusion: The strength based therapy mainly focuses on the optimistic aspect of the client. Utilization and identification of the client strengths help them in the recovery and treatment with mainly emphasising on the care and centred approach of an individual are in the situation to support the strength-based approach (Odell, 2008). The conception of partnership among clients, practitioners and community agencies, also with the implementing certain practices and policies also diminish or prevail over possible challenges connected with strengths-based therapy (Odell, 2008).
