Character Protect Life

As a first generation Indian-American, I am no stranger to being a part of a distinct community while observing two unique cultures. Traveling to India exposed me to a dynamic population with rich diversity comprising of numerous languages and differing religions. Though these individuals may have had differing customs from their neighbors, there were similar ambitions to conquer grinding poverty. This poverty can be clearly noticed by seeing citizens sleeping on floors of a railway station, or the lack of air conditioning in searing hot weather. The frailty and mortality of the human condition was starkly visible in India. As a fellow human, I was humbled not only by the lack of privilege and opportunity of many citizens, but also by their

Jhumpa Lahiri’s Unaccustomed Earth is comprised of eight short stories about different Indian families’ struggles in America, many of them going through the immigrant experience. The conflicts are with friends and family, and also with themselves, as each of them attempt to find their own identity along with fitting in with the rest of society. One of the causes of these struggles that because the families in the stories are mixed in terms of generation. Many of the adults in the stories were first generation immigrants from India, while many of the children were raised in the United States, which is the second generation. This led to blending of culture and at the same time, clashes between the immigrant mentality of living and the American mentality of living. In Unaccustomed Earth, Lahiri demonstrates to the reader the important influence of environment, specifically culture and how it impacts parental teachings, on the personality and development of an individuals’ identity, and how the actions and development of characters can affect one’s family and friends; the impact of environment and culture is shown especially by the characters and stories “Hell-Heaven” and “Hema and Kaushik”.

Many of the people living in the village have come from a variety of lives before moving into the community. Some old, some new, and often have been alone most of their life.

8) The living conditions were bad, the houses were small, a lot of people died, factories had poor health and safety conditions, America had the most work related injuries and the U.S. had no workers

13. Impoverished children who live in developing countries have a high risk of dying from

Document 5 illustrates the poor living areas of the workers, they lived in slums which were extremely filthy and refuse was scattered everywhere. They did not have gutters or drains which allowed the refuse to accumulate an so ventilation was also poor. The filthy slums also had a negative impact on the workers, this is shown in document 6. According to the document more people died due to the poor living conditions than they did from war death or wounds. These people were under 45, which was 13 years below the life expectancy at that time.

The Putrid Conditions of Slum life. The city slums are cramped, dark and dirty. With around 300,000

There were large numbers of gentlemen(A person who didn’t know how to use their own hands to work), only 4 carpenters, and no farmers(Doc C). Since there were many gentlemen(65), they weren’t very helpful, and if they tried to be helpful, they weren’t good at the job they were given. Since there were no farmers, there was a scarce amount of food for everyone, which then led to subsistence farming(Only farming enough food for your own family)(Doc. C.). As a result of no carpenters nor farmers but too many gentlemen, there was a massive lack of skill, which led to many

These people had very poor food offerd them cuasing there bodues to be “thin and frail” as stated in document 7. Due to them being weak and frail many of them had poor immune systems cuasing them to be more prone to deasises. The laborers lived miserble lives working 12 hours a day and going home to poorly furnshex homes.

Attaching great importance to individuality is the third characteristic of market society. For people living in market society, economic advantages are superior to other advantages; the first thing to protect is their individual wealth. This ideological change results from the material condition in market society that people all become single individuals in the factories producing goods for making more money for themselves. In this case, the economic relations rule the social relations (Rinehart 71). Under the structure of the previous social organization, however, “man’s economy... is submerged in his social relationships” (Polanyi 46). People were always concerned about their social relations within their communities (Polanyi 46). They acted so as to maintain their social values (Polanyi 46). The reason for this when it comes to the case of tribal society is that there is no need for people to care much about “individual’s economic interest” because working for the communities enables

Live Indians were seen as problematic because they refused to die out and they were not wanted in society (61).

Living standards as described by Blainey (2000) were bleak. Most people lived in one roomed, small stone houses, often with four or more sharing one bed. Homes often remained unheated due to scarcity of wood (Blainey 2000, p. 423). People were largely uneducated and knew little about healthcare. Sewerage was disposed of in the same rivers that were used to drink and wash from. These contaminated rivers were used to supply water to the growing crops. This had a huge impact on health, causing infection in around two out of every three people in rural areas (Blainey 2000, p. 415). Lack of hygiene and knowledge of healthcare led to shorter lifespans.

India is country known all over the world for its culture and tradition. It is a land with various cultures and traditions which are as vast as the subcontinent upon which they are located. This essay will focus on the Indian culture and highlight the different beliefs that Indians have on life processes. The essay will show the different methods Indians use to stay healthy and how the Indian culture can determine how healthcare services are provided to the people.

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. The village has not only good points, but also it has bad points.
