Abstract

From the Paper
"Dependency theory posits a global society in which the largest member states establish and reformulate complex international rules and institutions in order to manage their relations with other states. These rules and institutions are presented by the larger states as being universally positive for all of international society, but in reality they often benefit the great powers at the expense of weaker and smaller powers like Bangladesh, which become dependent and powerless."

Abstract
This paper discusses how a critical examination of development of Bangladesh indicates that its development has proceeded in accordance with dependency theory, which reflects the English School theory of international relations.

From the Paper
"It must also be taken into account that Bangladesh is the poorest country on earth, yet has vast, untapped oil reserves, which makes it a tempting target for a Western power such as the United States, which may decide to "liberate" it in the name of "democracy" as part of "the war on terror" after it finishes "liberating" Iraq and perhaps Iran as well.
The current political weakness of the Bush Administration and the chaos in Iraq make this scenario unlikely in the near future, but such a development over the next ten to twenty years cannot be ruled out. "

Abstract
This paper provides an analysis of how economic development (globalization) is having a negative impact on the environment, especially its impact on climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions. Two developed (Germany and the U.S.), two developing (India and China), and two underdeveloped (Somalia and Bangladesh) nations are used as case studies to support the analysis.

From the Paper
"Looking at world economic development or globalization of the world's markets, it becomes readily apparent that though uneven economic benefits may accrue to developed nations compared to developing and underdeveloped nations, nations at all stages of development are being negatively affected by economic development. The world's most developed or industrialized nations are heavily responsible for negative effects on the environment that have lead to climate change. The industrial revolution is not yet ... years old but its negative environmental impact is far-reaching and serious. As Abid..."

Abstract
This paper presents an analysis of world poverty with a focus on how natural disasters, overpopulation, and warfare are directly related to the worsening financial crises. This paper specifically examines the effects of the civil war in Somalia on the economy and poverty. This paper also discusses the effects of overpopulation in Ethiopia, and the effects of natural disasters in East India and Bangladesh on poverty. Lastly, the paper focuses on the impact that the worsening state of poverty has had on the inhabitants of the countries affected.

From the Paper
"The vast majority of people living under this poverty line live in the developing nations of the world. The developing nations generally consist of central African and South Asian countries. Poverty is worsening in the developing nations of the world. Several trends link the majority of impoverished nations together. Three prominent trends observed between many poor nations are natural disasters, overpopulation, and warfare. These three trends are the distinctive factors, which generally lead to the financial strife of the developing nations."

Abstract
This paper examines four third world women political leaders' biographies, and focuses on the processes of how they had come to power in their countries. The author points out that Mrs. Ciller stands as an exception among other three women leaders studied in this essay.

From the Paper
"Only few women could rise to position of political leadership in the world. In a cross-cultural comparison of political leaders, Jean Blonder (1987) concludes that most of the political leaders in the world are overwhelmingly male and only less than .005% of all political leaders are women (116-117). More female national leaders within this .005% of share have held office in less developed countries than more developed. This information about the women political leadership may seem to be little bit striking because, on the one hand, most women political leaders have held the office in less developed countries, where women status is considerably lower, on the other hand, only a few women leaders could hold the office in the modern societies, where the feminist movements originally emerged and women have higher status."

Abstract
This paper discusses the Grameen philosophy of the Grameen Bank in Bangladesh and the way in which it has developed one way of fighting poverty for the women and children in the country. The paper briefly discusses the multi-layered ramifications of this unique approach in Bangladesh. It argues that due to cultural restrictions in Bangladesh the only way to raise the standard of living of women is through the process of microcredit empowerment.

From the Paper
"Preliminary evidence suggests that there have been significant benefits to both women and children through the process of empowering their economic mobility. Analysis from Barbara Haley, in a study done by the Canadian International Development Agency in 2001, suggests that 58% of women clients at Grameen had in fact crossed the extreme poverty line, compared to 18% of non-members. Crossing the poverty line is defined as "annual income sufficient to provide each family member with a daily intake of 1,800 calories."35 Of the remaining 42% of clients who failed to cross the poverty line, 60% had experienced a serious illness in the family. Grameen loans prevented these families from coalescing into worse economic conditions, however they were not sufficient enough to cross the extreme poverty line.36"

Abstract
Agitation against British colonial rule grew during the 1920s and 1930s. At independence in 1947 differences between Hindus and Muslims led to partition of British India into present-day India and Pakistan (from which Bangladesh broke away in 1971).

"Political History
Agitation against British colonial rule grew during the 1920s and 1930s. At independence in 1947 differences between Hindus and Muslims led to partition of British India into present-day India and Pakistan (from which Bangladesh broke away in 1971). India became a sovereign republic in 1950 under a constitution adopted in 1949. In addition to staggering problems of overpopulation, economic underdevelopment, and inadequate social services, India had to achieve the integration of the former princely state into the union and the creation of national unity from diverse cultural and linguistic groups (Basham, 1984).

India's major foreign problems have been a border dispute with China that first surfaced in 1957, and continual conflicts with Pakistan. In the ..."

Abstract
This paper consists of an introduction that summarizes an article provided by the client about Mohammod Yunus's micro-loan bank in Bangladesh. It then argues that such a micro-loan program, even though it works for developing countries, would not be successful for highly industrialized countries such as the United States.

From the Paper
"The desire to eradicate poverty is a world-wide issue. Mohammud Yunus, the founder of the Grameen bank in Bangladesh, is one person who wanted to help people who had no other real opportunities to earn money on their own. Yunus started a micro-credit program where he gives out small loans to Bangladeshi people who are destitute so that they can start their own small businesses (Jolis 96). These borrowers buy materials to make products to sell, and then slowly pay off their loans from Yunus when their goods have been sold. According to Tom Jolis, who wrote an article..."

Abstract
This paper is a study of civil service, attempting to support developing principles of good public service. The paper focuses on six countries in Asia, Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutah, Cambodia, Maldives and Mongolia. The paper also discusses China and India. The idea of the paper is to develop principles for good public service and this includes professionalism and focusing on serving the public.

From the Paper
"Public administration, the day to day implementation of government policy and government services, matters even more in emerging democracies, where people need to see that democracy can work, than in countries where democracy is firmly established. People tend to focus on the more dramatic process of making laws, on elections, and on political conflicts among various political parties and
