Walter Rodney's "How Europe Underdeveloped Africa"
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. Walter Rodney's How Europe Underdeveloped Africa seeks to illustrate the manner by which Africa's existence in today's world is wholly due to the oppressive approach imparted by European presence. The author's goals and objectives in writing the book are to bring to light the otherwise misunderstood reasons behind Africa's perpetual state of underdevelopment, clearly and blatantly pointing the accusatory finger at Puritan hegemony in a land where they did not even belong. Major highlights of the author's views include such acknowledgments as early capitalist development, imperialism and colonialism, as well as technological and military elements. Rodney argues in no uncertain terms that had it not been for the oppressive nature of European existence, Africa would have had the capabilities to become just as progressive and developed as any other global nation. No additional sources cited.

Water Supply And Disease In The Developing World
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. The truism attached to shipwrecked sailors afloat in miles and miles of ocean – water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink – is easily equated with the long-standing problems plaguing underdeveloped countries where their own water supply is concerned. While the sailors must grapple with life-killing salt that prevents their ability to drink from the limitless reserve all around them, those in such global communities as Africa are faced with an entirely different challenge to obtain clean, uncontaminated drinking sources. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

What Is an American Today
[ send me this paper ]
This 14 page report discusses how one
would describe what an American actually is to someone in a
remote African village. As Americans meet peoples of the world,
they find it is difficult it is to be confronted with unexpected
and difficult questions. In developed societies an American may
be faced with confrontations, in such a way as to feel as though
they are being personally criticized or attacked for simply being
an American. However, it may be even more unnerving to answer the
simple and ingenuous question of what an American is. It requires
some in-depth personal awareness to even begin to answer such a
question for that African villager. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

WHO and Pharmaceutical Industry Cooperation Serving
Developing Nations
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page paper discussing the partnership activities of the
World Health Organization and the world's leading pharmaceutical manufacturers. Detractors
of the pharmaceutical industry deride it for concentrating on developing drugs for the diseases
of prosperity while neglecting to develop drugs for tropical diseases, but these detractors fail
to understand that development of a single drug can cost as much as $500 million and that
businesses must have some promise of return. A new WHO-directed program, Medicines for
Malaria Venture, is a collaboration seeking to raise the funds necessary for development. In
the meantime, nearly all pharmaceutical companies regularly make substantial donations of
medicines and supplies. Most are on the order of Merck's commitment to donate 1 million
measles vaccination doses to Honduras over three years. Bibliography lists 12 sources.

Women's Roles in Mozambique
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp). If ever there was a suffering place, it
is Mozambique. World Bank statistics show the
average Mozambican making about $80 in 1994. In
