Discuss how An Expansion Of Rights For Some Lead To The Contraction Of Rights For Others.

A number of authors have shown how, at times, an expansion of rights or opportunities for some could lead to a contraction of rights and opportunities for others. Grandin, Beckert and Oakes all write about broad national advancements: The US expansion Westward and “Democratization” (Grandin and Beckert); The economic ascendance of the United States with the development of cotton production (Beckert); And the development of antislavery politics and the abolition of slavery (Oakes) But for Grandin and Beckert, these national developments only happened with the further subjugation of women, Native Americans, free blacks and slaves. The Civil War brought about the violent confrontation between the property rights of the slaveholders and the rights of black people to their freedom. The Republican Party seemed to be well aware of the way the slaveholders’ property rights depended on the complete denial of rights of black people. (Oakes) These types of stories contradict the idea that history is simply the story of progress and advancement.Choose two of these authors and write about the way that freedom for various groups of people (which you specify, for example: northern white women, black slaves, white westerners, southern slaveholders, etc.) clashed in various ways with the freedoms of others. What were the outcomes of these clashes? Choose at least two of the following texts to write about for your response: -Grandin, “A Caucasian Democracy”-Beckert -Oakes, “Ultimate Extinction”-Oakes, “Fulfillment of Prophesies”

Discuss any potential negative uses of that technology. Do the benefits of these technologies outweigh the potential negative consequences they have on food security? Why or why not?Question 2. Using Technology to Improve the FutureAs addressed in the readings, technology has the potential to both solve global social problems and make them worse. For example, technological devices that can interact with the environment have the potential to reduce world hunger by helping to increase food production in developing countries. However, some technological advancements—such as weapons of war and automated assembly lines—can threaten life through armed conflict, and pollution of the environment can increase poverty by eliminating jobs.Do advancements in technology pose any direct and/or indirect threats to the global environment? Choose one advancement and provide two examples of direct or indirect threats in your explanation. Question 3.
