- Chosen by Voters The only way communism will work in the future is if we have robots to do our work and computers to do our thinking.At that point it won't matter much as far as to what economic system we have in place since technology will have taken over economics and the only difference between economic systems will be who gets what.But having communism in such a fashion where humans are involved in doing the work is destructive. Human nature enjoys pleasure and avoids pain(work). The best way to get a human to endure pain/work is to reward them with pleasure. Under a communist system, each individual is rewarded with the same amount of pleasure no matter how much pain/work they put in. So with human nature, a human will tend toward doing no work under such a system.The only way for a communist system to work with humans is to bring even more pain to an individual for lack of a community's expected pain/work per individual.I think it would be better if the state faded away and allow for small communities with their own ideologies and beliefs to survive with people given the choice of moving to those communities in which they believe in whether it's a communist/facist/libertarian/theocratic community, but it is the nature of the state to grow, so without a revolution it will never cease to exist. 6 years ago 100% 1 Vote 1 person rated this as good

Why has English become such an important language in the world today?

February 21st 2012 · Read More · No Comments

- Chosen by Voters I'd highly suggest you to read the book "Linguistic Imperialism" by Robert Phillipson (1992). The author tries to draw a theoretical framework in order to find some answers to the same question you ask. His major concern is the role of ELT in promoting English, and hence cultural and linguistic imperialism. According to Phillipson, the promotion of the English language is intentional and deliberate provided by both public and private forces. The spread of English has not been left to chance, and language pedagogy (ELT) has played its part in this process. He lists many other reasons that play a role in the promotion of English throughout his book. So, I think you'll benefit greatly from this book. 4 years ago 43% 3 Votes 4 people rated this as good

February 21st 2012 · Read More · No Comments

- Chosen by Voters The sort of rankings to which you refer are not too valuable in making international comparisons, as you seem to know. However, sometimes, the 100th ranking US university has a better program in a given field than the the 75th ranking one outside the US, for exampleFor doctoral work, it is much better to rely on opinions of the professors at your undergraduate university and also to do a search of currently published peer reviewed articles in your field to see where the most relevant research is being done. Rankings are based on arbitrary mathematical formulae of which some aspects have nothing to do with the quality of the program.Undergraduate education varies so much from country to country that rankings are useful for only the very top universities, such as "Oxbridge", the Ivies, les Grandes Ecoles, Monash, etc. 2 years ago 100% 1 Vote 1 person rated this as good
