Informational Summary The Junior Scholastic article, “Is Regifting Rude?”, states how many people think that regifting is rude to the original giver, but some say that it is perfectly fine to regift a gift given to you. On the “yes, it is rude” side of the article, they state that if you regift you are giving away your beloved thing that your giver gave you. Mostly your relative will give you a present that took them awhile to pick out but if you choose to throw it away, you are letting them down.

Ancient artifacts are the symbols of human civilization. All of them are priceless and cannot be measured by currency value. Repatriate is a controversial problem because of the various reasons. For instance, the aggressor took all of the captures back to their home countries and showed them to the public, during the war. Voyagers took other countries’ artifact to prove they had been in that place. Archeologists, anthropologists, and scientists took the antiquities back to their university for research. Politicians used the regulation to move away a relic as decrease the power of a competitor. Thieves had stolen someone’s important items or expensive objects in a tomb in order to sell to the private collectors. It can’t be right to steal the items that belong to other people. When the owner found out the items were stolen, and then they hoped they could get them back. That was how repatriated started. Some antiquities were transported to the country that they do not belong to. Thus, there are some people think those ancient artifacts should be returned to the original country because it involves moral issues. However, some people think they shouldn’t be returned because they are the spoils of the wars. Most antiquities were looted from other places, which are showed in the museum. So which countries do they belong to? However, In my opinion, museums don’t have to return the antiquities to the original

In the article "Can't Ask, Can't Tell: How institutional Review Boards Keep Sex in the Closet" by Janice M Irvine, the social scientists are frustrated with the Institutional Review Boards for stymied research about sexuality. The IRBs believe that the topic of sexuality is too sensitive for studies, and it is has been considered to be one of the special cases that do not want to present to the public.

How the topics involved with modern social problems where not comfortable topics and that is why we avoided talking about them. So when he said that at the beginning it automatically got me thinking about all the things we talked about in class that had made me uncomfortable. Then I got to think, how come this uncomfortable topics don’t come up more often in my everyday life when they are such a prevalent problem in society?

There are many items that I have in my possession that make me feel accomplished or an item that I use just daily. There is however, some items that have absolutely no idea why I have, and continue to hold on to them. For example, I still have a karate trophy that I really don’t pride, a computer hard drive that should have been thrown away, and some empty boxes of Run Gum.

While reparation and restitution are similar, they vary in audience. Restitution is the act of giving art or cultural treasures back to their original owner. Repatriation, applying to a group of people rather than an individual, is the act returning of cultural treasures to their country of origin or culture (UNESCO). Sometimes restitution goes against repatriation. This occurs when the legal owners of cultural treasures desire to own, or have access to it, whereas the country of origin wants to keep the work. Repatriation is viewed on a case by case basis, whereas restitution is almost always a moral necessity. Often times the owners will win the art back, then display it in galleries. This allows for the public to continue to appreciate the art. Both of these aspects of the art world are important, as they affect international affairs.
