Attachment Theory Chapter 2
Introduction
It is a marvel to see a family of mallard ducks walk across a street, mother proudly in front and
tiny little ducklings following in a straight line behind. In a flock of sheep with new lambs, it is
amazing to see how each pair is somehow able to find each other. In these cases, there is an
inborn instinct or bond between the mother and new offspring. This is a survival mechanism
that helps the parent care for the tiny, vulnerable new babies.
But what about humans? Do we have a similar bond or connection? Is there some kind of
built-in mechanism that creates a connection between a parent and his or her newborn child?
It is generally believed that humans do have a similar connection or bond, known as attach-
ment (see Chapter 1). According to attachment theory, attachment plays a critical role in the
healthy development of the infant and young child and determines whether the child grows
into a secure or insecure adult. According to Ainsworth (1973), attachment is an emotional tie
formed between one individual and another specific individual. Bowlby (1988) believes that
babies are born with behaviors—crying, smiling, and clinging—that elicit caregiving behaviors
from parents. An infant, however, is not born with attachment. Rather, attachment develops
over time as the result of dynamic interactions between the infant and mother or other sig-
nificant caregivers.
Attachment develops slowly, from birth through the child’s first years. As infants interact with
important adults in their lives, they develop a concept or model of their relationship with oth-
ers—what we call an internal working model (Bowlby, 1973). This model then influences
the development of later relationships and acts as a guide to emotions, perceptions, and
attitudes. The view that attachment is a critical model that sets the stage for healthy develop-
ment is known as attachment theory. Not all children develop secur.

Developing a Basic Logic
Model For Your Program
Drawing a picture of how your program will achieve results
hether you are a grantseeker developing a proposal for start-up funds or a
grantee with a program already in operation, developing a logic model can
strengthen your program. Logic models help identify the factors that will
impact your program and enable you to anticipate the data and resources
you will need to achieve success. As you engage in the process of creating your
program logic model, your organization will systematically address these important
program planning and evaluation issues:
• Cataloguing of the resources and actions you believe you will need to reach intended
results.
• Documentation of connections among your available resources, planned activities and
the results you expect to achieve.
• Description of the results you are aiming for in terms of specific, measurable, action-
oriented, realistic and timed outcomes.
The exercises in this chapter gather the raw material you need to draw a basic logic
model that illustrates how and why your program will work and what it will accomplish.
You can benefit from creating a logic model at any point in the life of any program.
The logic model development process helps people inside and outside your
organization understand and improve the purpose and process of your work.
Chapter 2 is organized into two sections—Program Implementation, and Program
Results. The best recipe for program success is to complete both exercises. (Full-size
masters of each exercise and the checklists are provided in the Forms Appendix at the
back of the guide for you to photocopy and use with stakeholder groups as you design
your program.)
Exercise 1: Program Results. In a series of three steps, you describe the results you
plan to achieve with your program.
Exercise 2: Program Resources and Activities by taking you through three steps
that connect the program’s resources to the actual activities you plan to do.

The Mytown Example
Throughout Exercises 1 and 2 we’ll follow an example program to see how the logic
model steps can be applied. In our example, the folks in Mytown, USA are striving to
meet the needs of growing numbers of uninsured residents who are turning to Memorial
Hospital’s Emergency Room for care. Because that care is expensive and not the best
way to offer care, the community is working to create a free clinic. Throughout the
chapters, Mytown’s program information will be dropped into logic model templates for
Program Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation.
Novice Logic modelers may want to have copies of the Basic Logic Model Template in
front of them and follow along. Those read.

1. The first issue that jumped out to me is that the president and two vice presidents were the ones to develop the program. Our lecture notes and the text tell us that safety is one topic where management and employees can usually come to an agreement. Everyone wants a safe work environment. We are also taught that consultation is the best way to approach health and safety at work. Again, this means involving more than three people at the company. For starters, I would recommend that the safety program be dismantled and reconstructed by a committee consisting of at least 50% employees, not just senior leadership. I would keep this committee as small as possible and not have it controlled by one person only. The committee should be formed of employees from all sections and representing all possible departments where health and safety are potential issues.

1. 1.Top of Form
There could be a number of problems with CMI's safety awareness plan. One major one is that they could not be promoting safety. That is the first step into getting the program to work...employee involvement. First the awareness program was developed by the president and the vice presidents. A safety awareness program can be more successful if employees are involved in the development, and remain involved as it is adjusted and refined. Rules should be in place, and employers must ensure that those rules are followed and enforced consistently. Incentives and competition could be another way to promote safety in the work place. Our text cites that having employees work in teams and have them determine the incentives will keep them involved and promote safety. Also, of course keeping employees up to date on all rules will also promote safety.
2. I think the supervisor's response to employee complaints about John Randall is not appropriate at all. Even thought it is difficult, home problems should not be brought into the work place. Especially if coworkers are complaining about someone's behavior. This does not promote safety at all. To say that Randall will get over it and to disclose that he has personal problems is.

Perceptions Impact
Your Market?
By Nicole Olynk Widmar and
Melissa McKendree, Purdue University
I aintaining existing mar-
kets for pork products,
I cultivating new markets
for existing products and
creating new products for new markets
are some avenues that the U.S. pork
industry has sought, and continues to
explore, for growth. When it comes to
maintaining markets, there are several
relationships that must be considered.
End consumers, whether in restaurant
or supermarket settings, are increas-
ingly interested in social issues and the
production processes employed in food
production. Livestock products (meat
and dairy products) certainly seem
to get the majority of the spotlight in
regard to consumers' concern for pro-
duction processes.
Shoppers in supermarkets and din-
ers in restaurants have increased access
to information via the Internet, and are
in constant communication with one
another via social media and alterna-
tive news sources about perceptions
of animal agriculture. Even though
most U.S. consumers are not directly
in contact with livestock, concern for
the treatment of animals, including
those employed in food production,
is evident — and increasing. While
in the past consumers were mainly
concerned with factors like the fat or
nutritional content of pork, for exam-
ple, today's savvy shoppers are con-
sidering other factors, like the welfare
of livestock (pigs), safety of workers
employed on farms and potential envi-
ronmental impacts (externalities) of
livestock operations.
Large-scale changes in production
practices are taking place in livestock
24 April 15, 2014
production due to pressures from vari-
ous interested parties. Changes such
as the discontinued use of gestation
stalls, for example, are being sought
via traditional regulatory channels in
some states, but are also being pushed
via non-traditional market channels.
Consider the cumbersome process
of changing regulations, versus the
oftentimes faster (and perhaps easier)
channel of influencing key market
actors. It is no surprise that consum-
ers' concerns are increasingly voiced to
supermarkets and restaurants which,
in turn, take action to satisfy their
customers by placing pressure on sup-
ply-chain players. Changes sought via
"the market," rather than legislation or
regulation, are increasingly common,

s the global economy has become more integrated and urbanized,
fueled in large part by technology, major cities and metropolitan
areas have become key engines of economic growth. The 123 largest
metro areas in the world generate nearly one third of global output
with only 13 percent of the world’s population.
In this urban-centered world, the classic notion of a
global city has been upended. This report introduces
a redefined map of global cities, drawing on a new
typology that demonstrates how metro areas vary in
the ways they attract and amass economic drivers
and contribute to global economic growth in distinct
ways. New concerns about economic stagnation—in
both developing and developed economies—add
urgency to mapping the role of the world’s cities and
the extent to which they are well-positioned to deliver
the next round of global growth.1
Instead of a ranking or indexed score, which many
prior cities indices and reports have capably deliv-
ered,2 this analysis differentiates the assets and
challenges faced by seven types of global cities.
This perspective reveals that all major cities are
indeed global; they participate as critical nodes in
an integrated marketplace and are shaped by global
currents. But cities also operate from much differ-
ent starting points and experience diverse economic
trajectories. Concerns about global growth, productiv-
ity, and wages are not monolithic, and so this typology
can inform the variety of paths cities take to address
these challenges. For metro leaders, this typology
can also ensure better application of peer com-
parisons, enable the identification of more relevant
global innovations to local challenges, and reinforce a
city-region’s relative role and performance to inform
economic strategies that ensure ongoing prosperity.
This report proceeds in four parts. In the following
section, Part II, we explore the three global forces of
urbanization, globalization, and technological change,
and how together they are demanding that city-
regions focus on five core factors—traded clusters,
innovation, talent, infrastructure connectivity, and
governance—to bolster their economic competitive-
ness. Building on these factors, Part III outlines the
data and methods deployed to create the metropoli-
tan typology. Part IV explores the collective economic
clout of the metro areas in our sample and introduces
the new typology of global cities. Finally, Part V
explores the future investments, policies, and strate-
gies required for each grouping of metro areas. Within
the typology framework, we explore the priorities for
action going forward, including the implications for
governance.

• To understand the power of blockchain systems, and the things they can do, it is important to
distinguish between three things that are commonly muddled up, namely the bitcoin currency,
the specific blockchain that underpins it and the idea of blockchains in general.
• Economist, 2015
WHAT IS BLOCKCHAIN?
• A technology that permits transactions to be recorded
– Cryptographically chains blocks in order
– Allows resulting ledger accessed by different servers
– Information stored can never be deleted
• A digital distributed ledger that is stored and maintained on multiple systems belonging to multiple
entities sharing identical information (Deloitte)
• Bitcoin was the first demonstrable use
HISTORY OF BLOCKCHAIN
T YPES OF BLOCKCHAINS
• public or permissionless blockchains
– everyone who wants to engage in the network can openly see all transactions. The technology is
transparent, and all who want to engage in making transactions on the blockchain can do so.
• private or permissioned blockchains
– closed and accessible only to a selected few who have permission to engage in the blockchain.
BLOCKCHAIN FEATURES
• A blockchain lets us agree on the state of the system, even if we don’t all trust each other!
• We don’t want a single trusted arbiter of the state of the world.
• A blockchain is a hash chain with some other stuff added
– Validity conditions
– Way to resolve disagreements
• The spread of blockchains is bad for anyone in the “trust business”
WHAT IS BITCOIN
• A protocol that supports a decentralized, pseudo-anonymous, peer-to-peer digital currency
• A publicly disclosed linked ledger of transactions stored in a blockchain
• A reward driven system for achieving consensus (mining) based on “Proofs of Work” for
helping to secure the network
• A “scare token” economy with an eventual cap of about 21M bitcoins

Orientalizing New Spain:
Perspectives on Asian Influence
in Colonial Mexico1
Edward R. Slack, Jr.2
Resumen
E ste artículo investiga la totalidad de la influencia de Asia sobre la Nueva España que resultó de la conquista de Manila en 1571 y la re-gularización del comercio Transpacífico -comúnmente conocido como
los galeones de Manila o las naos de China- entre las Filipinas y Acapulco.
En sus inicios, una oleada constante de inmigrantes asiáticos, mercancías y
nuevas técnicas de producción influyeron mesuradamente en la sociedad y
la economía colonial mediante un proceso que el autor denomina “Orientali-
zación”. No obstante, en ninguna manera “Orientalización” se debe equiparar
con el concepto de Edward Said de “Orientalismo” por la relación histórica,
única e intima de la Nueva España con Asia a principios de la edad Moderna.
Abstract
This article examines the totality of Asia’s influence on New Spain that resulted
from the conquest of Manila in 1571 and the regularization of transpacific tra-
de – more widely known as the Manila Galleons or naos de China – between the
Philippines and Acapulco. In its wake, a steady stream of Asian immigrants,
commodities, and manufacturing techniques measurably impacted colonial
society and economy through a process the author calls “Orientalization.”
However, “Orientalization” should in no way be equated with Edward Said’s

concept of “Orientalism” because of New Spain’s uniquely intimate historical
relationship with Asia in the early Modern era.
Introduction
Contrary to popular belief, the Philippines Islands were more a colony of New
Spain (Nueva España) than of “Old Spain” prior to the nineteenth century.
The Manila galleons, or naos de China (China ships), transported Asian pro-
ducts and peoples to Acapulco and other Mexican ports for approximately
250 years. Riding this ‘first wave’
of maritime contact between
the Americas and Asia were tra-
velers from China, Japan, the
Philippines, various kingdoms in
Southeast Asia and India known
collectively in New Spain as chinos
(Chinese) or indios chinos (Chine-
se Indians), as the word chino/a
became synonymous with the
Orient. The rather indiscrimi-
nate categorizing of everything
“Asian” under the Spanish noun
for the Ming/Qing empire, its
subjects and export items is easily
discovered in a variety of sources
from that age. To illustrate, the
eig hteenth centur y works of
Italian adventurer Gamelli Carreri and the criollo priest Joachin Antonio
de Basarás (who evangelized in Luzon) nonchalantly refer to the Philippine
Islands as “la China.”3 Additionally, words such as chinería (Chinese-esque,
European/Mexican imitation of Chines.

Ayn Rand – THE VIRTUE OF SELFISHNESS
1. The Objectivist Ethics
by Ayn Rand
Since I am to speak on the Objectivist Ethics, I shall begin by quoting its best
representative—John Galt, in Atlas Shrugged:
“Through centuries of scourges and disasters, brought about by your code of morality,
you have cried that your code had been broken, that the scourges were punishment for
breaking it, that men were too weak and too selfish to spill all the blood it required. You
damned man, you damned existence, you damned this earth, but never dared to question
your code. ... You went on crying that your code was noble, but human nature was not
good enough to practice it. And no one rose to ask the question: Good?—by what
standard?
“You wanted to know John Galt’s identity. I am the man who has asked that question.
“Yes, this is an age of moral crisis. ... Your moral code has reached its climax, the
blind alley at the end of its course. And if you wish to go on living, what you now need is
not to return to morality ... but to discover it.”1
What is morality, or ethics? It is a code of values to guide man’s choices and
actions—the choices and actions that determine the purpose and the course of his life.
Ethics, as a science, deals with discovering and defining such a code.
The first question that has to be answered, .

AyeIntroductionUtilitarianism is a theory that the aim of actio.docx
AyeIntroduction
Utilitarianism is “a theory that the aim of action should be the largest possible balance of pleasure over pain or the greatest happiness of the greatest number” Merriam-Webster. I argue that the principle of utility can be proper to set for specific rules that benefit all society and improper when ruling for general issues. To prove my argument, I will show what Bentham and Mill ideas of the principle of Utility. I will use Rule-utilitarianism and Act-utilitarianism to further my analysis of the principle of utility in matters of laws and policy. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Try to use a definition from an author or your own. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Awk. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Good –explain here exactly how you’ll do this. Bentham & Mill
Bentham's Principle of Utility have four components. First, is to recognize the main role of pain and pleasure in people’s lives. Second, favors or condemns an action on the basis of the amount of pain or pleasure brought to people for example, consequences. Third, he associates good with pleasure and evil with pain. Last, he asserts that pleasure and pain are measurable. Comment by Kevin McGravey: has Comment by Kevin McGravey: You want to cite Bentham here.
Mill adjusted the more hedonistic views in Bentham's philosophy by emphasizing, it is not the quantity of pleasure, but the quality of happiness that is central to utilitarianism. This analysis is unreasonable according to Mill, qualities cannot be quantified, and there is a distinction between higher and lower pleasures. Utilitarianism refers to the Greatest Happiness Principle it seeks to promote the ability of achieving happiness like higher pleasures for the most amount of people. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Again, cite Mill here so that you can explore the view in more depth.
Rule & Act Utilitarianism
Rule-utilitarianism is the principle of utility which is used to determine the validity of rules of conduct or moral principles. Rule utilitarianism sounds paradoxical because it says that we can have better results if we follow the rules than by always performing individual actions whose consequences are good as possible in that situation.
The rule-utilitarian approach to morality can be shown by considering the rules of the road. Driving the general utilitarian principle can be very broad and open-ended like “drive safely” where rule utilitarianism is more specific like “stop at red lights.”
The reasoning behind a more inflexible rule-based system leads to greater overall utility is that people have poor judgment when driving. Having specific rules minimizes the dangers of having too broad of rules.
A rule-utilitarian can be shown by seeing the difference between stop signs and yield signs. Stop signs stop drivers from crossing an intersection at all times, even if the driver sees that there are no cars approaching and therefore no danger in not stopping. A yield sign allows drivers to go through without stopping, unless.

Developing a Basic Logic
Model For Your Program
Drawing a picture of how your program will achieve results
hether you are a grantseeker developing a proposal for start-up funds or a
grantee with a program already in operation, developing a logic model can
strengthen your program. Logic models help identify the factors that will
impact your program and enable you to anticipate the data and resources
you will need to achieve success. As you engage in the process of creating your
program logic model, your organization will systematically address these important
program planning and evaluation issues:
• Cataloguing of the resources and actions you believe you will need to reach intended
results.
• Documentation of connections among your available resources, planned activities and
the results you expect to achieve.
• Description of the results you are aiming for in terms of specific, measurable, action-
oriented, realistic and timed outcomes.
The exercises in this chapter gather the raw material you need to draw a basic logic
model that illustrates how and why your program will work and what it will accomplish.
You can benefit from creating a logic model at any point in the life of any program.
The logic model development process helps people inside and outside your
organization understand and improve the purpose and process of your work.
Chapter 2 is organized into two sections—Program Implementation, and Program
Results. The best recipe for program success is to complete both exercises. (Full-size
masters of each exercise and the checklists are provided in the Forms Appendix at the
back of the guide for you to photocopy and use with stakeholder groups as you design
your program.)
Exercise 1: Program Results. In a series of three steps, you describe the results you
plan to achieve with your program.
Exercise 2: Program Resources and Activities by taking you through three steps
that connect the program’s resources to the actual activities you plan to do.

The Mytown Example
Throughout Exercises 1 and 2 we’ll follow an example program to see how the logic
model steps can be applied. In our example, the folks in Mytown, USA are striving to
meet the needs of growing numbers of uninsured residents who are turning to Memorial
Hospital’s Emergency Room for care. Because that care is expensive and not the best
way to offer care, the community is working to create a free clinic. Throughout the
chapters, Mytown’s program information will be dropped into logic model templates for
Program Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation.
Novice Logic modelers may want to have copies of the Basic Logic Model Template in
front of them and follow along. Those read.

1. The first issue that jumped out to me is that the president and two vice presidents were the ones to develop the program. Our lecture notes and the text tell us that safety is one topic where management and employees can usually come to an agreement. Everyone wants a safe work environment. We are also taught that consultation is the best way to approach health and safety at work. Again, this means involving more than three people at the company. For starters, I would recommend that the safety program be dismantled and reconstructed by a committee consisting of at least 50% employees, not just senior leadership. I would keep this committee as small as possible and not have it controlled by one person only. The committee should be formed of employees from all sections and representing all possible departments where health and safety are potential issues.

1. 1.Top of Form
There could be a number of problems with CMI's safety awareness plan. One major one is that they could not be promoting safety. That is the first step into getting the program to work...employee involvement. First the awareness program was developed by the president and the vice presidents. A safety awareness program can be more successful if employees are involved in the development, and remain involved as it is adjusted and refined. Rules should be in place, and employers must ensure that those rules are followed and enforced consistently. Incentives and competition could be another way to promote safety in the work place. Our text cites that having employees work in teams and have them determine the incentives will keep them involved and promote safety. Also, of course keeping employees up to date on all rules will also promote safety.
2. I think the supervisor's response to employee complaints about John Randall is not appropriate at all. Even thought it is difficult, home problems should not be brought into the work place. Especially if coworkers are complaining about someone's behavior. This does not promote safety at all. To say that Randall will get over it and to disclose that he has personal problems is.

Perceptions Impact
Your Market?
By Nicole Olynk Widmar and
Melissa McKendree, Purdue University
I aintaining existing mar-
kets for pork products,
I cultivating new markets
for existing products and
creating new products for new markets
are some avenues that the U.S. pork
industry has sought, and continues to
explore, for growth. When it comes to
maintaining markets, there are several
relationships that must be considered.
End consumers, whether in restaurant
or supermarket settings, are increas-
ingly interested in social issues and the
production processes employed in food
production. Livestock products (meat
and dairy products) certainly seem
to get the majority of the spotlight in
regard to consumers' concern for pro-
duction processes.
Shoppers in supermarkets and din-
ers in restaurants have increased access
to information via the Internet, and are
in constant communication with one
another via social media and alterna-
tive news sources about perceptions
of animal agriculture. Even though
most U.S. consumers are not directly
in contact with livestock, concern for
the treatment of animals, including
those employed in food production,
is evident — and increasing. While
in the past consumers were mainly
concerned with factors like the fat or
nutritional content of pork, for exam-
ple, today's savvy shoppers are con-
sidering other factors, like the welfare
of livestock (pigs), safety of workers
employed on farms and potential envi-
ronmental impacts (externalities) of
livestock operations.
Large-scale changes in production
practices are taking place in livestock
24 April 15, 2014
production due to pressures from vari-
ous interested parties. Changes such
as the discontinued use of gestation
stalls, for example, are being sought
via traditional regulatory channels in
some states, but are also being pushed
via non-traditional market channels.
Consider the cumbersome process
of changing regulations, versus the
oftentimes faster (and perhaps easier)
channel of influencing key market
actors. It is no surprise that consum-
ers' concerns are increasingly voiced to
supermarkets and restaurants which,
in turn, take action to satisfy their
customers by placing pressure on sup-
ply-chain players. Changes sought via
"the market," rather than legislation or
regulation, are increasingly common,
and the use of market channels for
communicating throughout the supply
chain is unlikely to stop anytime soon.

s the global economy has become more integrated and urbanized,
fueled in large part by technology, major cities and metropolitan
areas have become key engines of economic growth. The 123 largest
metro areas in the world generate nearly one third of global output
with only 13 percent of the world’s population.
In this urban-centered world, the classic notion of a
global city has been upended. This report introduces
a redefined map of global cities, drawing on a new
typology that demonstrates how metro areas vary in
the ways they attract and amass economic drivers
and contribute to global economic growth in distinct
ways. New concerns about economic stagnation—in
both developing and developed economies—add
urgency to mapping the role of the world’s cities and
the extent to which they are well-positioned to deliver
the next round of global growth.1
Instead of a ranking or indexed score, which many
prior cities indices and reports have capably deliv-
ered,2 this analysis differentiates the assets and
challenges faced by seven types of global cities.
This perspective reveals that all major cities are
indeed global; they participate as critical nodes in
an integrated marketplace and are shaped by global
currents. But cities also operate from much differ-
ent starting points and experience diverse economic
trajectories. Concerns about global growth, productiv-
ity, and wages are not monolithic, and so this typology
can inform the variety of paths cities take to address
these challenges. For metro leaders, this typology
can also ensure better application of peer com-
parisons, enable the identification of more relevant
global innovations to local challenges, and reinforce a
city-region’s relative role and performance to inform
economic strategies that ensure ongoing prosperity.
This report proceeds in four parts. In the following
section, Part II, we explore the three global forces of
urbanization, globalization, and technological change,
and how together they are demanding that city-
regions focus on five core factors—traded clusters,
innovation, talent, infrastructure connectivity, and
governance—to bolster their economic competitive-
ness. Building on these factors, Part III outlines the
data and methods deployed to create the metropoli-
tan typology. Part IV explores the collective economic
clout of the metro areas in our sample and introduces
the new typology of global cities. Finally, Part V
explores the future investments, policies, and strate-
gies required for each grouping of metro areas. Within
the typology framework, we explore the priorities for
action going forward, including the implications for
governance.

• To understand the power of blockchain systems, and the things they can do, it is important to
distinguish between three things that are commonly muddled up, namely the bitcoin currency,
the specific blockchain that underpins it and the idea of blockchains in general.
• Economist, 2015
WHAT IS BLOCKCHAIN?
• A technology that permits transactions to be recorded
– Cryptographically chains blocks in order
– Allows resulting ledger accessed by different servers
– Information stored can never be deleted
• A digital distributed ledger that is stored and maintained on multiple systems belonging to multiple
entities sharing identical information (Deloitte)
• Bitcoin was the first demonstrable use
HISTORY OF BLOCKCHAIN
T YPES OF BLOCKCHAINS
• public or permissionless blockchains
– everyone who wants to engage in the network can openly see all transactions. The technology is
transparent, and all who want to engage in making transactions on the blockchain can do so.
• private or permissioned blockchains
– closed and accessible only to a selected few who have permission to engage in the blockchain.
BLOCKCHAIN FEATURES
• A blockchain lets us agree on the state of the system, even if we don’t all trust each other!
• We don’t want a single trusted arbiter of the state of the world.
• A blockchain is a hash chain with some other stuff added
– Validity conditions
– Way to resolve disagreements
• The spread of blockchains is bad for anyone in the “trust business”
WHAT IS BITCOIN
• A protocol that supports a decentralized, pseudo-anonymous, peer-to-peer digital currency
• A publicly disclosed linked ledger of transactions stored in a blockchain
• A reward driven system for achieving consensus (mining) based on “Proofs of Work” for
helping to secure the network
• A “scare token” economy with an eventual cap of about 21M bitcoins

Orientalizing New Spain:
Perspectives on Asian Influence
in Colonial Mexico1
Edward R. Slack, Jr.2
Resumen
E ste artículo investiga la totalidad de la influencia de Asia sobre la Nueva España que resultó de la conquista de Manila en 1571 y la re-gularización del comercio Transpacífico -comúnmente conocido como
los galeones de Manila o las naos de China- entre las Filipinas y Acapulco.
En sus inicios, una oleada constante de inmigrantes asiáticos, mercancías y
nuevas técnicas de producción influyeron mesuradamente en la sociedad y
la economía colonial mediante un proceso que el autor denomina “Orientali-
zación”. No obstante, en ninguna manera “Orientalización” se debe equiparar
con el concepto de Edward Said de “Orientalismo” por la relación histórica,
única e intima de la Nueva España con Asia a principios de la edad Moderna.
Abstract
This article examines the totality of Asia’s influence on New Spain that resulted
from the conquest of Manila in 1571 and the regularization of transpacific tra-
de – more widely known as the Manila Galleons or naos de China – between the
Philippines and Acapulco. In its wake, a steady stream of Asian immigrants,
commodities, and manufacturing techniques measurably impacted colonial
society and economy through a process the author calls “Orientalization.”
However, “Orientalization” should in no way be equated with Edward Said’s

concept of “Orientalism” because of New Spain’s uniquely intimate historical
relationship with Asia in the early Modern era.
Introduction
Contrary to popular belief, the Philippines Islands were more a colony of New
Spain (Nueva España) than of “Old Spain” prior to the nineteenth century.
The Manila galleons, or naos de China (China ships), transported Asian pro-
ducts and peoples to Acapulco and other Mexican ports for approximately
250 years. Riding this ‘first wave’
of maritime contact between
the Americas and Asia were tra-
velers from China, Japan, the
Philippines, various kingdoms in
Southeast Asia and India known
collectively in New Spain as chinos
(Chinese) or indios chinos (Chine-
se Indians), as the word chino/a
became synonymous with the
Orient. The rather indiscrimi-
nate categorizing of everything
“Asian” under the Spanish noun
for the Ming/Qing empire, its
subjects and export items is easily
discovered in a variety of sources
from that age. To illustrate, the
eig hteenth centur y works of
Italian adventurer Gamelli Carreri and the criollo priest Joachin Antonio
de Basarás (who evangelized in Luzon) nonchalantly refer to the Philippine
Islands as “la China.”3 Additionally, words such as chinería (Chinese-esque,
European/Mexican imitation of Chines.

Ayn Rand – THE VIRTUE OF SELFISHNESS
1. The Objectivist Ethics
by Ayn Rand
Since I am to speak on the Objectivist Ethics, I shall begin by quoting its best
representative—John Galt, in Atlas Shrugged:
“Through centuries of scourges and disasters, brought about by your code of morality,
you have cried that your code had been broken, that the scourges were punishment for
breaking it, that men were too weak and too selfish to spill all the blood it required. You
damned man, you damned existence, you damned this earth, but never dared to question
your code. ... You went on crying that your code was noble, but human nature was not
good enough to practice it. And no one rose to ask the question: Good?—by what
standard?
“You wanted to know John Galt’s identity. I am the man who has asked that question.
“Yes, this is an age of moral crisis. ... Your moral code has reached its climax, the
blind alley at the end of its course. And if you wish to go on living, what you now need is
not to return to morality ... but to discover it.”1
What is morality, or ethics? It is a code of values to guide man’s choices and
actions—the choices and actions that determine the purpose and the course of his life.
Ethics, as a science, deals with discovering and defining such a code.
The first question that has to be answered, .

AyeIntroductionUtilitarianism is a theory that the aim of actio.docx
AyeIntroduction
Utilitarianism is “a theory that the aim of action should be the largest possible balance of pleasure over pain or the greatest happiness of the greatest number” Merriam-Webster. I argue that the principle of utility can be proper to set for specific rules that benefit all society and improper when ruling for general issues. To prove my argument, I will show what Bentham and Mill ideas of the principle of Utility. I will use Rule-utilitarianism and Act-utilitarianism to further my analysis of the principle of utility in matters of laws and policy. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Try to use a definition from an author or your own. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Awk. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Good –explain here exactly how you’ll do this. Bentham & Mill
Bentham's Principle of Utility have four components. First, is to recognize the main role of pain and pleasure in people’s lives. Second, favors or condemns an action on the basis of the amount of pain or pleasure brought to people for example, consequences. Third, he associates good with pleasure and evil with pain. Last, he asserts that pleasure and pain are measurable. Comment by Kevin McGravey: has Comment by Kevin McGravey: You want to cite Bentham here.
Mill adjusted the more hedonistic views in Bentham's philosophy by emphasizing, it is not the quantity of pleasure, but the quality of happiness that is central to utilitarianism. This analysis is unreasonable according to Mill, qualities cannot be quantified, and there is a distinction between higher and lower pleasures. Utilitarianism refers to the Greatest Happiness Principle it seeks to promote the ability of achieving happiness like higher pleasures for the most amount of people. Comment by Kevin McGravey: Again, cite Mill here so that you can explore the view in more depth.
Rule & Act Utilitarianism
Rule-utilitarianism is the principle of utility which is used to determine the validity of rules of conduct or moral principles. Rule utilitarianism sounds paradoxical because it says that we can have better results if we follow the rules than by always performing individual actions whose consequences are good as possible in that situation.
The rule-utilitarian approach to morality can be shown by considering the rules of the road. Driving the general utilitarian principle can be very broad and open-ended like “drive safely” where rule utilitarianism is more specific like “stop at red lights.”
The reasoning behind a more inflexible rule-based system leads to greater overall utility is that people have poor judgment when driving. Having specific rules minimizes the dangers of having too broad of rules.
A rule-utilitarian can be shown by seeing the difference between stop signs and yield signs. Stop signs stop drivers from crossing an intersection at all times, even if the driver sees that there are no cars approaching and therefore no danger in not stopping. A yield sign allows drivers to go through without stopping, unless.
