This dissertation examines management of two invasive weeds, Palmer amaranth in glufosinate-resistant cotton and cogongrass, in the Southern United States. For Palmer amaranth management, the author evaluates the effects of soil inversion, cover crops, and herbicide regimes on Palmer amaranth density and control in cotton. Results show that preemergence herbicides and a pre+postemergence herbicide regime reduced Palmer amaranth density by over 96% compared to no herbicide. For cogongrass eradication, the author evaluates herbicide treatments at different timings and finds that glyphosate+imazapyr achieved eradication at any timing, while imazapyr

Omitting concrete details like economic statistics allows a perspective that sees individuals beyond metrics and highlights shared human experiences across cultures.

Lisa Beck discusses Peter Uvin's book "Aiding Violence: The Development Enterprise in Rwanda" which analyzes how development aid influenced aspects of life in Rwanda. Uvin writes about how unemployment and suppressed aspirations among men in Rwanda left them vulnerable to ethnic appeals that led to genocide. Beck agrees that seeking self-respect, even if it leads to violence, may be healthy for those with low self-esteem, and hopes they also yearn for respect from others. Prolonged oppression can destroy any instinctual need for self-respect, as basic needs like food and shelter take priority over self-respect under such conditions.
The document summarizes US efforts to combat human trafficking and makes recommendations to increase effectiveness. It discusses producing the Trafficking in Persons report while reducing costs, establishing a task force to improve coordination and evaluation of foreign anti-trafficking projects, examining restrictions placed on non-compliant countries, and increasing transparency and vetting processes for US representatives abroad. The key recommendations are to find more cost-effective and innovative ways of monitoring trafficking while maintaining the ability to track trends over time, solve problems with coordinating, evaluating and monitoring foreign anti-trafficking programs, and modify any practices that increase the potential for trafficking.
- Israel presents information about its actions during Operation Protective Edge from July to August 2014 against Hamas in Gaza. It aims to explain its decisions and emphasize it did not violate international law.
- Israel provides background on Gaza's geography, demographics, and its 2005 withdrawal of settlers, arguing this shows it does not seek destruction of Palestinians. However, when faced with continual attacks from Hamas, it has a duty to protect its citizens.
- During Operation Protective Edge, Hamas fired over 4,500 rockets at Israel, including after a ceasefire. Israel responded in an attempt to limit civilian casualties while protecting its own people. It argues figures are difficult to independently verify due to Hamas threats against journalists.
The document discusses whether Asia is truly rising to surpass the West. It notes that while some Asian countries have achieved economic success, others have failed or stagnated. It also argues that viewing Asia or the West as single unified wholes can overlook important differences between individual nations. Ultimately, it questions whether predictions of Asia surpassing the West are guaranteed, given challenges countries like China have faced in expanding their influence globally in places like Latin America.
Democratization efforts can lead to violence if they threaten existing power structures or are seen as imposed by foreigners. Forcing democracy on countries that do not fully embrace it can breed resentment. Ruling parties may resist losing power through democratization. Aid recipients may resent the arrogance of foreign aid workers who do not understand local conditions. Past failures of colonialism to respect local cultures show how imposed system changes can cause violence by destroying worldviews and inflicting humiliation. Structural inequalities left by foreign intervention can accumulate anger and lay the groundwork for future acute violence between groups.
