If a person could not pay the fine, they would be an outcast with in the social tribe and isolated, they would be prevented from participating in religious rites and lose their civil rights too. Celts were a civilisation based on honour and acceptance, those committing crime had to redeem themselves back into the kinship of their tribe. The fear of losing their religious rites and their standing within the social tribe was enough to deter most Celts, to be isolated and seen as relegated to a lower member of the tribe would almost certainly deter reoffending. The Celts would impose sanctions upon law breakers as a community punishment, today this could compare to our system of community payback, whereby a person who has committed a crime would be ordered to do a certain amount of unpaid work as a way of repaying his community for his wrong doing. Until the payback had been fulfilled the person remains unpunished and not part of the rest of the law abiding society.
The negative portrayals of earlier films on Aboriginals did not only have a great effect on how the world views them today, but it has also contributed to the continuing struggles of First Nations for individual rights. The world has a variety of interpretations and misinterpretations of the First Nations people, but the one that is stuck to everyone’s mind are probably the portrayals of First Nations in the earlier films. The early film’s portrayals of aboriginals were mostly offensive, inaccurate, and stereotypical-they were not pleasant. In the 1930s, Native people were portrayed as savages. One example is John Ford’s movie Stagecoach which shows a number of Indian type violence, heavy drinkers to being prostitutes to
Cree people who are usually reclusive about their way of life agreed to be documented in the film as they are worried about the shrinking number in their people who are still retaining their traditional way of life. In the film, it is revealed that their cultures are greatly affected by the development that occurs in Quebec, especially by the building of damns and dikes in their territory. The apparent problem that the Cree people are facing is the loss of their land due to the rapid development, which in turn affects their culture and way of life. The Cree hunters are accustomed to their old way of life with less or no usage of modern technology. The skills that have been passed from generations to generations live in their heart, and that are the main reason why they can adapt very well in a cold place, such as Quebec that have scarce resources.
Aiming to win back support from the American’s, as many people did not support the Vietnam war due to the bad media that was publicised. This was the first War to be so publicised and it shocked many of the people back home. This lead to Anti-War protest, which became one of the US governments aims to stop. However they still stuck to the aim to try and contain Vietnam from the spread of communism and supporting the SV defeat the VC in nearby country Cambodia. On the other side the aims of the NV government and their terrorist organisation the VC did not alter as they still aimed to persuade the SV government to vote for Vietnam to become a communist country.
Corruption, school-dropouts, and alcoholism are to blame for most of the poor. The land the Native-Americans live on is hard to harvest; therefore farming for food and vegetables can be hard. Property rights on the reservation tend to be non-existent, and weaken prosperity for this culture. Most of lands that Native-Americans live are communally, no one is able to get a clear title to his or her land, making is hard to borrow money or establish credit for improvements or investments they will benefit families. This is called tragedy of the commons, when everyone owns the land no one really owns the land which results in rundown housing due to lack of investments on the property or housing.
Most indigenous people were treated unfairly or poorly and worked long, hard hours. During the earlier years of conquest, the colonial church was still a whole. The church organization had created two distinct branches, secular and regular clergy. This would then be spread around the word of Christianity to save souls. By incorporating this belief into the inhabitants, the indigenous people would then believe their way of living was wrong and
For example the Keonaloa case, to build this resort 22 acres of the burial ground was sacrificed, for a construction of a hotel, tennis courts and etc. This devastating of the environmental affects the locals, because it has reduced the places where natives could keep their traditional livelihoods, for example: gathering medicine and food, fishing. Which in time makes harder for them to get by. They are forced to look for other ways to fulfil their basic needs. Globalization Globalization has a negative impact on Hawaii too.
Subsequently, the settlement became highly dysfunctional since the English gentleman refused to do work that was necessary to the colonies survival. This difference in social status was one of the many problems faced by the Jamestown colony. These setbacks included disease, starvation, massive death rates, and the pending relationship with the Powhatan Native Americans. The Powhatan were initially friendly to the colonists and gave them food, but drought ended the Powhatans generosity. The colonists attacked the Powhatan to procure food and relations never recovered afterwards.
They had no decent terrain to grow crops and the Native Americans were hostile to some colonists. It seemed that things were just not going to go right for them. Then, when the Native Americans accepted the colonists and gave them their own land, the colonists formed the thirteen American Colonies. But, the colonies were still oppressed under the king’s rule. This made almost every American upset, almost to the point of revolt, but
One internal factor that led to the weakening of the Tokugawa rule was the building discontentment among the social classes/groups that made up Japan’s society at the time. The nobles, for one, were insistent on the emperor being restored power. The daimyo were simply long-time enemies of the Shogun due to some of the restrictions put on them, such as sankin kotai (alternate attendance)—where groups were required to travel to Edo every second year and stay there for a year—which ultimately resulted in expenditure of their limited money that is also used to pay their samurai. The samurai as well were discontented due to their lack of money, too. Their rice allowance was cut by up to half, and rice had small buying power.
