“Women Have Always Worked”
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses the concepts presented in Alice Kessler-Harris’, a professor of history at Columbia University, book about women’s work outside the home. When she views the world in terms of the patterns associated with women working inside or outside of the home, it is clear that she has a clear understanding of the factors that determined where most women would do the most work as was decided by the economic conditions of society. Such has always been the case in America but it should also be noted that women have always worked. The differences are in definition, certainly not in the expenditure of physical energy. Bibliography lists only the primary source.

30 Years of Interest Rates and the S&P 500
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper evaluating the relationship between interest rates and the S&P 500 index, for the purpose of determining whether the two are connected. Of course we know the stock market grew at its greatest rates and to its highest volumes ever during the decade of the 1990s, while interest rates sank lower than they had been since the 1960s. It is tempting to place a direct link between interest rates and the value of the S&P 500, but that relationship likely will not be supported by further analysis. Bibliography lists 6 sources. Includes 3 tables.

A Liberal Marxist’s View of Internet Gambling
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses international Internet gambling in the context of thinking exercised by a liberal Marxist. The traditional Marxist viewpoint follows the original thinking of Karl Marx that all events in human society are determined by economic forces. Marx’s ultimate goal was to liberate the world from the evil of acquisitive materialism and lead the human race to a new freedom. He saw humans as unable to overcome greed. And certainly, greed plays an important role in gambling. Therefore, a liberal Marxist is likely to find him/herself in the unusual position of siding with ultra-conservatives and the religious right regarding international Internet gambling. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
