American Foreign Policy in Asia 1850-1950
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper tracing US involvement in Asia during this 100-year period. By 1950, the US was wary of the new communist government on mainland China, but it maintained the position as a benevolent protector of Japan, Taiwan and the Philippines, which promised strategic positioning. The US represented a largely silent threat to dictatorial forces in Asia, a force that promised to lie dormant unless there was need for it to arise. With the memory of World War II so very fresh, none of the more oppressive forces in Asia doubted that the US would act if it believed action to be necessary. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Americans & Hui Muslims / A Cultural Comparison
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper comparing and contrasting the culture of the Hui Muslims and that of Americans. Although the culture of America is far more complex an issue than that of the particular group of Chinese Muslims, a general comparison and contrast is involved, which illustrates that, even though there are scattered issues which illustrate different aspects, the majority of the issues illustrate vast similarities in the cultures. While this may be directly related to religion to some extent, the differences are, more than likely, attributable to the basic and essential qualities that are inherent in history and culture's involvement in such. For individual cultures appear to follow a similar path in the evolution of their unique cultures. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Amy Tan's "The Joy Luck Club": Psychological Theories/Perspectives
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. The presence of cultural heritage in Chinese-American life is not as significant as it once was, with the overall incorporation not being of high priority to the younger generations. One may readily surmise that this unexpected and often unwelcome secularism has virtually everything to do with the manner in which the passage of time becomes such a significantly painful occurrence for each mother's personal experience. The writer discusses psychological theories and perspectives, as well as the concept of age, as they relate to Amy Tan's "The Joy Luck Club." Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Amy Tan’s “Joy Luck Club” and the Mother-Daughter Bond in All Cultures:
[ send me this paper ]
This 12 page report discusses the quest for personal identity that is so deeply interwoven in the relationship between mothers and daughters. The reason the Amy Tan book and its subsequent movie were so successful was the fact that those relationships served as examples of how women, young and old, strive to place themselves beyond the control of strong mothers and become individuals. Countless stories throughout history document the evolution of the mother-daughter relationship. In the twentieth (twenty-first) century, the stories have often been set in the context of developments in psychoanalytical and feminist theory. Of equal value, the stories of mothers’ and daughters’ understanding of one another in the context of their unique culture is important. Whether or not that culture is one of first and second generation immigrants or the differences between women born into different generations of the same fundamentalist religion, the relationship of mother and daughter transcends and defines all other relationships.
