I remember stating that ‘Globalization is both good and inevitable’ in the previous lesson’s discussion forum. Yet, there never exists a perfect system. Every advantage has always an intrinsic disadvantage. Mainly because of the lack of empathy.
For this reading assignment, I would like to discuss about the project stated above: Kenya – Natural Resource Management Project (Project ID: P095050), which started on 27 March 2007 with a projected cost of US$ 78.00 million and was completed on 30 June 2013, having spent only US$ 68.50 million (World Bank Group, 2016, Project-At-A-Glance). The project abstract states “to enhance the institutional capacity to manage water and forest resources, reduce the incidence and severity of water shocks in river catchments, and improve the livelihoods of communities participating in the co-management of water and forests” (World Bank Group, 2016, para. 1 - Overview). To tell you honestly what I have done in my research, I read first what happened on a

This had not been the first attempt to kick out the said tribe from the Embobut forest. There had been efforts as early as the start of the twentieth century by the British colonial administration and later, by the Kenyan government for more than twenty evictions since the 1980s (Survival International Charitable Trust, 2014, para. 1-5). I truly and honestly believe when such tribes are involved who have no housing alternatives in these kind of relocation due to an ambitious, say, worth truly of investment of time, effort and money, turns futile when the very people you aim to improve the lives turns
Do you like getting kicked out after working hard and establishing a great community. On May 28, 1830 Andrew Jackson signed the Indian Removal Act. This act states that all the indians will have to move from their land that they had first into unknown land that is supposedly a huge hunk of the Louisiana just for them with fertile soil and a water source. The Indian Removal Act of 1830 was terrible and unjustified; indians had already build up an amazing society, they were there first, and the americans have already messed with the indians. For starters, the Indians have built up a respectable town.
Lindsey Hernandez Johnson U.S. Honors 28 September 2015 The Indian Removal Act & Trail of Tears Picture this; someone is in their home with their family, they are the first people to ever settle in this land, Native American, with their own language, religion and one day white people come. The white people are treated with kindness and welcome, not out of dignity but out of fear. There is peace.
From these tribes approximately 46,000 Indians were forcefully moved ( Indian removal Policy in USA). The Cherokee were
This relocation of the Cherokee tribe happened late in the year, it was too cold as stated in this quote, “The trail of the exiles was a trail of death. They had to sleep in the wagons and on the ground without fire. And I have known as many as twenty-two of them to die in one night of pneumonia due to ill treatment, cold, and exposure” (Burnett) The objective of this act was not to kill over 4000 of them; the soldiers were not properly trained to keep the Cherokee Natives alive and from dying of hypothermia. This
Throughout the 1830s more than 100,000 Indigenous persons were forcefully moved to
If they were lucky they could sleep in a wagon but others weren’t as fortunate. Martin Van Buren may have been president at the time Andrew Jackson's policies were still there. Most of the Natives moving died of cold, hunger, and disease. Even soldiers felt bad for many Natives being dragged out of their homes. Some soldiers that had fought in the Civil War say that the Cherokee removal was worse (Georgia militiaman).
Forced Move of The Cherokee Nation The forced move of the Cherokee nation was not a correct action taken by the government at that point of history. It was unfair for the Cherokees, most strongly disagree with the treaty, it violated the Cherokee’s rights, and caused many to die. it also failed to follow the constitution It was very unfair for the Cherokees to be removed from their homeland, where their ancestors have lived and made it their home.
In 1830, Andrew Jackson signed what was known as the “Removal Act”. This Removal act authorized the president to grant unsettled lands west of the Mississippi in exchange for Indian lands within existing state borders. Few tribe move peacefully. If an Indian tribe would not go willingly, the U.S. army would come and force them. Even then some tribe would still resist and to the sad end they were crushed.
The government think that the tribe people are not capable of owning or managing their land. So the government took
The rest of their belongings were in this territory they should not be forced to leave. Everything they had would be ripped away from them if they were forced to move to Oklahoma. In Oklahoma they wouldn’t be able to practice their culture due to the fact their culture is focused around nature and Oklahoma is a desert and there is no way for them to practice what they
In the letter, the Cherokee nation addresses several reason on why they should not have to move. One reason is that the new land if foreign to them. They are being expected to pack up, leave everything they know, and move to the unknown. Another reason to add on to the above is that there are other Native American tribe already
The only tribe unwilling to pack up their lives and restart were the Cherokee tribe. There were pros and cons dealing with the Indian Removal Act of 1830, but it was not justified due to the Cherokee not wanting to move, the Americans taking over the land, and the Americans not seeing the Cherokee as equals. First of all, the Cherokee didn’t want to move. They noticed how horribly the other tribes were treated once those tribes reached the new land. The Cherokee knew they were no different from those unfortunate Indians so they figured they would probably being treated the same.
The Tsilhqot People have been fighting logging issues since the 1980’s and are still fighting over other issues like mining since 2013 (The Star, Supreme Court Grants Land Title…, 2014). Not only did the Tsilhqot people have property issues arise from resource development but the Haida as well. The Haida Native group in British Columbia also protested and opposed logging on the Queen Charlotte Islands in 1985 (Centre for Native Governance, Haida, 2013). In 1987 the Province of British Columbia signed an agreement to give some land back however, it took six years to complete and during this time frame they continued their developments (Centre for Native Governance, Haida, 2013). Robert William, the Tsilhqot representative in this case, said
The Indian Removal Act isn’t justified. No one wants to leave their home. It's sad and depressing when they’re kicked out. They don’t know where to go and what to do. It's a very difficult situation and that should happen to nobody if they didn’t do anything
The aim of this assessment is to reflect on what I have learned this semester regarding the module of Business in Global Context; from the lectures with the professor, the case studies done in class and the three previous patchworks that we worked on. We have learned that there are different internal and external components that affect the business environment, from corporate social responsibility to cultural and institutional framework; organizations must take into consideration all the factors related to the different parts of its environment. For the topic discussion, I will be discussing globalization and how it has affected the global business environment along with the key aspects and the different point of views regarding it.
