The Between China And India

When it comes to the political and economic effects that China and India felt, their experiences were both similar. The wealth made from markets in India went to Britain and money made from selling opium to the Chinese also went to Britain. In regards to the war in China and India, both countries experienced a strong sense of nationalism after having to endure the exploitation and mistreatment of the British. Both countries also lost many of their battles. However they were fought over different reasons. The social effects the Indians and the Chinese felt were also different. Even though India experienced some negative effects, the British was able to modernize and improve many parts of India. On the other hand, China’s population was left in pieces after opium entered the country. Overall, China and India were similar economic and political wise, but the social effects differed greatly.

Ancient India and Ancient China have as many similarities as they do differences. Over many decades of being so close they have had very little run-ins with one another. They have thrived living by the basic principles of a peaceful co-existence society. They have accepted each other’s differences and come to realize just how many similarities they have. Today it is almost impossible the see where the lines of separation between these two great dominating countries lies. With a combined population of 2.3 billion people, both China and India are the most populous countries in the world. They account for two-fifths of humanity.

Urbanization is a concept that is deeply rooted in the increase in a population within a region in response to the availability of unique opportunities. The opportunities may include the availability of employment chances in factories, investments opportunities in the urban areas, and the presence of sufficient housing and social infrastructure. It is apparent that urbanization began centuries ago in different regions of the world. However, the development of suburban areas has also been an interesting phenomenon over the centuries. Initially, people strived to live in the luxurious houses in major towns and cities. Nevertheless, there was a gradual shift in the desire to live in the cities when various negative impacts of overpopulation

There has been much publicity about the lives of women in India and how they are regarded. I would like to explore this topic in order to clarify and organize the abundance of information that has been in the media and in publications. I will focus this this topic comparing two countries, India and the US. Both are democratic countries and both have some forms of inequality. I will start by giving background information about both of the country’s political and cultural systems when relevant and the inequalities. This will produce the answer to which of the two states has made more improvements in the area, my dependent variable. Then I will go on to the bulk of the research in explaining the causes of the improvements or lack thereof which will be which will be the independent variables.

This week’s reading about India and China was very informative about their ancient forms of governments and how it differs from our original beliefs. In the reading section “Republics and Quasi-Democratic Institutions in Ancient India”, I was exposed to various concepts that I had not been taught in the past. As stated in the reading, “ …Brahmanical treaties found it very easy to visualize Indian society as a politically static one in which, ever since antiquity, monarchy was the normal form of state’(pg. 50). “ I as well assumed India’s government was only consisted of a Monarchial government system. I learned that Buddhist scriptures suggested that there was evidence that India practiced republicanism (pg. 50) It is stated by Muhlberger”the

Asian cities have been tended to grow more quickly than Western cities, so what makes their growth so phenomenal? The accelerated rate may be attributed to population dynamics, economic markets and or/socio-political conditions, poor planning and disregarding environmental hazards like flood plains have held them back. Many primate cities in Asia have grown to become megacities, and some more are rapidly increasing in size to assume such a status by the end of the century. This is a remarkable phenomenon fraught with various implications, favorable or unfavorable. In 1960 there were only two megacities in the region, which were, Tokyo and Shanghai. In 1970 Beijing was added, and Asia had three of 10 megacities in the world, or two of five

The process of urbanization in the United States “proceeded rapidly during the Industrial Era”. More so, “as more and more opportunities for work appeared in factories, workers left farms to move to the cities”. Evidently, this led “the industrial era [to see] an influx of poor workers into U.S. cities”. Likewise, “post-Civil War southern Blacks to more recent immigrants, have made their way to urban centers to seek a better life in the city”. The growth of urban populations worldwide “was a growth spurt”. This is due to the fact of “the development of factories [that] brought people from rural to urban areas, and new technology increased the efficiency of transportation, food production, and food preservation”. Furthermore, “global favorites

Urbanization is likely to be one of the defining phenomena of the 21st Century for Latin America as well as the rest of the developing world. The world as a whole became more urban than rural sometime in 2007, a demographic change that was driven by rapid urbanization in the developing countries. For the Latin American region, this

China and U.S. have been in a constant back and forth intelligence war for decades. The end of the Cold War allowed the U.S., in particularly the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), to refocus its counterintelligence efforts to combat not only Russia, but also China. The Ministry of State Security (MSS), China’s equivalent to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), was waging an espionage war to gather on the U.S.’s nuclear programs, counterintelligence programs, and other military technology programs. China’s espionage program was very effective and in multiple cases when Chinese agents were caught they were able to beat the U.S. justice system and receive little punishment. One such case was that of Katrina Leung, who was able to effectively spy on the U.S. under the nose of the FBI for nearly 15 years and still walks free to this day.

As the world’s population is booming, it requires for more cities to be developed and to grow in order to meet the needs of the population. Megacities are cities in which the population have surpassed 10 million, such as Buenos Aires. During the English Industrial Revolution, Manchester was an important city like Buenos Aires. Their population were able to grow fast because of technology and citizens leaving their rural effect, but these changes harmed society.

In the eighteenth and nineteenth century urban populations grew rapidly through migration from rural areas to find new jobs in the cities created by the industrial revolution, which led to 6,5 million inhabitants in London. In the twentieth century cities kept growing and in the 1950’s around thirty percent of world’s population was urban. The first mega city in the world emerged, as New York City broke the boundary of ten million inhabitants around 1930 (Wendell Cox Consultancy, 2005). In 1990 there were ten megacities that were home to 153 million people which is less than seven percent of the global urban population. In 2014 the amount of megacities has almost tripled to 28 with a population of 453 million people, which account for twelve percent of the global urban population. The total urban population in 2014 was 54 percent (UN, 2014). These numbers can be related to the second important event,

For an economy to grow as well as for the growth of human development it required a well nourished population. Urbanization, is the population shift

From January 23rd, 2010 till now, there are over 30 similar suicides happen in Mainland, China. Even in the January, 2010, there were 13 labours jumped from the residence to kill themselves. All the victims were the workers that worked for the technology company called FIH Mobile Limited which was known as Foxconn International Holdings Limited before they died. It brought the whole society to concern about what was happened in the Taiwan technology company. Then it was found out that the company treated the worker to harsh and unequally and eventually leaded committed suicide. There are some reasons that the society thinks why those workers who worked in Foxconn kill themselves by jumping from the buildings. First, the company makes each labour into working machine to work for the company while the workers get low income and little rest time. Second, all labours get too little welfare, such as small residence. Third, the managers and vice presidents mentally abuse the labour if they do something wrong in the work days. In this paper, I will use Durkheim, Luckman and Berger’s theory to describe why there were so many labours jump from the building to kill themselves.

Urbanization is defined as rapid population growth in urban areas. There are four major causes for urbanisation including: rapid economic growth, population increase, economies of scale and multiplier effect. The environment around us is heavily affected by urbanisation, bringing advantages and disadvantages along with it. Almost 45 per cent of the world's population which is two and a half billion people are living in urban areas.

Cities around the world are growing at a never experienced rate. Over the past thirty years the number of people
