Consider the work and writings of Alexander von Humboldt, and compare and contrast his findings on the issue of slavery in the 18th and 19th century to those of today’s researchers. It is my contention that slavery is alive and well in the 21st century and exists in the heartland of the so called free world.

Enslavement is a contravention of fundamental human rights, yet the tentacles of slavery continue to maintain their reach, even into the minds of free people. I hope to show that as corporate and institutional powers seek to find ever more sophisticated means to keep their workers docile and co-operative– even in our own high technology, pluralistic societies – a new form of

enslavement has emerged. I present this paper as both an academic concerned

with the historical and contemporary enslavement experience and as an

“expert by experience,” as someone who has survived a form of attempted

enslavement within the workplace.

In 2004 we commemorate the bicentenary of the meeting between Alexander von Humboldt and President Thomas Jefferson of the United States of

America. We are also celebrating the last visit by Alexander von Humboldt to

Havana, Cuba, from March to April 1804, where, with the authorization of

the Spanish Crown, he observed (in 1799, 1800 and 1804) the society of one

of the “Spanish Sugar Colonies.” This is where according to Humboldt

(1826, 44), by 1825 the slave population of the island had a total of 260,000

and by 1877 a total of 200,000 (Zeuske 2002, 136). Coincidently, 2004 has

also been proclaimed by the United Nations as the year against slavery

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Derived demand.

Explanation:

Derived demand in economics can be defined as the demand for a factor of production such as land, capital, labour or goods and services that occurs as a result of the demand for another intermediate or finished product.

This simply means that demand by consumers for a product produced by the firm largely affects the company's products.

Hence, according to derived demand the quantity of bulbs Philips makes is related to how many flashlights Rayovac sells.

What effect does the song sung by the harper Demodocus have upon Odysseus? Demodocus sings again later in the book - again, with
Georgia [21]

Answer:

In the book Odyssey by Homer, Odysseus weeps when Demodocus sings his songs about the Trojan War.

When the blind harper Demodocus entertains the court of Alcinous, the assembly enjoys the tales he tells and appreciates his beautiful singing. Unfortunately, the subject of the first and third performance is Odysseus himself during his time in Troy. The tales bring up hard memories for him and he's overwhelmed. In response, he covers his face with his cloak and weeps.

The second song Demodocus sings is about Ares and Aphrodite, and it doesn't have any sad effects on Odysseus. He enjoys it with everyone else.

Odysseus's weeping is consistent with what we would expect of a modern hero. It depicts modesty and an acknowledgement of the sacrifices of others in ensuring the achievements for which the hero is being praised. It also depicts an acknowledgement of his own imperfections and mistakes on the journey to becoming a hero.
