Reflections on Neoliberal Policy

It is reported that the global economic situation is not so good that many kinds of problems are emerging, especially in the developing countries. Egypt and Morocco are two examples of our study.

They have carried out the economic reform for a long time and what’s the effect? A recent article studies the ways they exploited the global economic situation and confirms whether they benefited from the openness of the markets. They mainly analyze the neoliberal policy, which has great influence on the development of their countries and the situation of the country has proved that the perspective of neoliberal policy seems wrong.

In fact, neoliberal policy, which is related to neoliberalism, means free-market economics. And it involves policies associated with free trade, privatization, price deregulation, a reduced size of government and flexible labour markets. And the purpose of carrying out the policy is to open the market, reduce the management from the government and improve the economic development, which is helpful to achieve the globalization. According to the study result, we found that the economic condition didn’t improve, and became worse instead. How did it happen? The core problem that comes with the neoliberal policy is the disagreement of economic (neo) liberalism and democratization or the disagreement between the development of economy and politics. Some people once said that that liberal democracy will be the final form of human government on a universal scale. And, according to the current situation, we can find the neoliberal policy causes the severe economic inequality, which finally leads to the instability and unrest of some countries.


In general, carrying out the neoliberal policy with the political agenda which is about democracy, liberalization and operational strategies will improve the economical situation of different countries, reduce the risk of inequality and finally realize the steady development and progress of the global society.

Electron Spin and Proton Spin in the Hydrogen and Hydrogen-Like Atomic Systems

Read full paper at: http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=52202#.VIj7tMnQrzE Author(s) Stanisław Olszewski * Affiliation(s) Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences, Warsaw, Poland . ABSTRACT The mechanical angular momentum and magnetic moment of the electron and proton spin have been calculated semiclassically with the aid of the uncertainty principle for energy and time. The spin effects of both kinds of the elementary particles can be expressed in terms of similar formulae. The quantization of the spin motion has been done on the basis of the old quantum theory. It gives a quantum number n = 1/2 as the index of the spin state acceptable for both the electron and proton ...

Incorporation of High-Altitude Balloon Experiment in High School Science Classrooms

High-altitude balloon is a balloon, filled usually with helium or hydrogen that ascends into an area called “near space” or stratosphere. The most common type of high-altitude balloons are weather balloons. Other purposes include use as a platform for experiments in the upper atmosphere. Modern balloons generally contain electronic equipment such as radio transmitters, cameras, or satellite navigation systems, such as GPS receivers. The mission of the High-Altitude Balloon Experiment (HABE) is to acquire supporting data, validate enabling technologies, and resolve critical acquisition, tracking, and pointing (ATP) and fire control issues in support of future space-based precision pointing experiments. The use of high-altitude balloons offers a relatively low-cost, low-vibration test platform, a recoverable and reusable payload, worldwide launch capability, and a 'near- space' emulation of the future space systems operational scenarios. More recently, several university...

Effects of Karate Training on Basic Motor Abilities of Primary School Children

“You never attack first in karate” might be the best conclusion of karate, which is a martial art practiced typically without weapons. It’s reported that karate has a long history for several hundred years, but the modern karate was spread to the whole Japan from Okinawa in the early part of 20th century. Now it has become one of the most widely practiced martial art forms in the world. Usually, it’s divided into Kihon, Kata and Kumite. As for the beginners, Kihon is more suitable for them because it involves basic techniques. Due to karate consists of dynamic offensive and defensive techniques using all parts of the body to their maximum advantage, the best understanding of true karate practice is the perfection of oneself through the perfection of the art. It not only develops coordination, quickens reflexes, and builds stamina, but also develops composure, a clearer thought process, deeper insight into one’s mental capabilities, and more self-confidence. So many researchers stu...
