Abortion

Thinking Skills: Make an essay about you topic: Abortion

Abortion must be legal? Abortion is a very delicate and complex topic discussed all around the world that lead us to lots of disagreements. When did the life of a human being start? nowadays we still having doubts about it some people believe that human being life start at conception, others at birth, and others support that is depending on the days, weeks or months  the mother have been pregnant.

To begin with, We all know that we have an important right, which is the right of life, and because of it I think that abortion is ethically wrong. The fetus is a human being and therefore he or she had the right to life and nobody should be able to take out this opportunity, no one should have the power of abortion, you are killing a person, your own baby

.

In my opinion is unjust that millions of babies have to die because of a selfish decision,  abortion should not be an escape route for those who have failed to take responsibility with regards to suitable protection from unwanted pregnancy and that is why I don´t agree, in some way, about the right of the women  to ownership her own body. However there are some exceptions, What is the women pregnant has been raped? The mother could end the life of the fetus if his own life is in danger?

From my point of view, is very difficult to define a correct answer to this two questions, I am just saying my opinion and I think that although in the two cases the baby is innocent, the mother should have the right of abortion. For example, If the women has been raped, she had not the fault of having a baby and she was not looking for a baby and she probably is to jung so as to live everything aside and take care of  she or he, apart from this, probably the pregnancy will be a constant reminder of the sad and horrible situation she had suffered and this baby will not have a father.

In conclusion, there are some women that abort anyway, knowing is illegal and they do it in a danger way. So I think I would let abortion be legal and safe only because this reason. On the other hand, I am against abortion, it might be a difficult decision, no doubt, one of the biggest decision of your life but i think I would not do it.

Mad Men

In thinking skills class whit our teacher, Maria Brito Evans, we saw a video of the serie, mad men where cigarettes advertisement were discussed, later we must answer some questions our teacher left in edmood.

1. Found some of the vested interests in this scene. How do these work?
2. Why is Peter's idea rejected, and why is Don's idea accepted?
3. Publish your answers on your blogs and the link to thdentify sem here in Edmodo. Before you do that, produce an introduction to the task ("We watched a video...). Also, include a relevant picture (related to Mad Men, advertising ciga

1)One of the first vested interests that appeared on the video is when Don explains his idea. According to it, tobacco is seen as an element that gives a person happiness (though in fact, it gives dependence), the way Don explains his thought, makes him avoid mentioning part of the real information which are the terrible effects smoking produces.

Other vested interest we could identify was when the men rejected Peter's idea. These men ignore that opinion because it was not convenient for their business

2) Peter’s idea is rejected because he made reference of the great damage tobacco creates in people's life, mentioning it's a life danger and it was obviously, not beneficial for the company. On the other hand, Don’s idea was quickly accepted because it did not mentioned every risks tobacco caused. In addition, Don portrayed tobacco as something people need to be happy making propaganda still look attractive. rettes, advertising, vested interest, etc.)

3)

 

Cigarette Advertisment

1)How does advertising help tobacco companies to defend their vested interest?
2)Cigarettes advertising distorts the truth. Briefly comment in this view.

Advertising help a lot in tobacco company because is a way to attract or persuade people to buy the product although they are not telling the completely truth about what smoking could produce.

People who were in-charge of creating tobacco advertisement had to convince people that smoking have lots of positives thing, (for example in that time the person who smokes was seen as a cool person) so as to in a way make people see that cigarettes are not as ad as they think.

Nowadays there are not more tobacco advertisements because people already know how bad tobacco is, in addition its now mandatory that all cigarette packet must have a little advertisement about the damage the cigarette could cause,  anyway many people still smoking because of a addiction or because they like it.

Women in Politics

    

    How far is a women qualified to fulfilled  an important political role?

Nowadays women can have the power of leading a country, when some years ago they only were in charge of cooking, cleaning and taking care of their children. They were not able to vote or express their opinion or take decisions. On the other hand, the change in women’s power improves and advances, slowly but surely, and how now women are qualified to fulfill an important political role. The role of women in politics had been changing with the pass of the time and now it is usual to find women occupying political positions in eastern and western countries, in some cases Heads of State. According to sociologists, during the second half of the twentieth century there has been the biggest transformation in history, and that especially since the decades of the 60s and 70s when the efforts and struggles of women suffragettes initially started in countries as diverse as England, France or Mexico. However, it was not until the late '90s that women began to had important positions in the governments of different ideological and democratic dyes worldwide.

There are a lot of women that we can mention as the pioneers in international politics. I tried to select the ones that I thought as more representatives, beginning with Lydia Chapin Taft who in 1756 was the first legal woman voter in America. Later in 1882 Aletta Jacobs was the first woman in the Netherlands to attempt to register to vote but her application was denied. New Zealand is credited today for being the first nation to grant all women the right to vote in 1893. In 1930 Alexandra Kollontai is appointed Ambassador from the Soviet Union to Sweden, becoming the first woman Ambassador in modern history and in 1966 Indira Gandhi became the first Prime Minister of India. Soong Ching-ling was the first non-royal woman to lead the state of China in 1968.

In 1979 Margaret Thatcher became the first woman Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. She served in that position -- winning re-election in 1983 and in 1987 -- until resigning in 1990. She was called “Iron Woman” because of her strong personality. During her leadership Argentina and Great Britain were in war reclaiming the Malvinas’ (Falklands) sovereignty.

Another outstanding woman is Angela Merkel, who was elected Chancellor of Germany in 2005 doing a great job in her country, making the Germany one of the strongest, if not the strongest, countries in the European Union.

Senator Hillary Clinton was the first woman to ever be considered as a top candidate (or even a serious one) for the US Presidency in 2007, but she lost the Democratic Party Nomination to Senator Barack Obama.

In our country I must mention Eva Duarte de Perón, who was the second wife of Juan Domingo Perón and who did much for women's rights and in 1947 she achieved the law that allowed Argentine women to vote. In 1974 the third wife of Juan Domingo Perón, María Estela (Isabelita) Martínez de Perón succeeded her husband and became the first woman President of Argentina and the first female head of state in the Americas. In 2007 Cristina Fernández de Kirchner was elected President of Argentina and reelected in 2012. She is still governing our country.

Going back to what I have mentioned, women were and are exposed to several barriers that may impact their desire to run for a political career. These barriers are for example sex stereotyping, political socialization, lack of preparation for political activity, and balancing work and family. Now women in government are under-represented in most countries worldwide, in contrast to men. However, women are increasingly being politically elected to be heads of state and government.

In conclusion, I think women are capable as men to lead a country. In my opinion, there were many women who knew how to carry forward the whole country, and they did it without men’s help, may be that with some mistakes but we all make mistakes. From my point of view it’s not an easy task. We must observe the preceding women as an example, learning from their successfulness and their mistakes. We must prepare carefully and thoroughly to finally achieve an equal respect as men have.
