In the US, Hillary Clinton’s first presidential campaign in 2008 led to some interesting political-science findings about explicit versus hidden hostility toward women presidential candidates. In one study, more than a quarter of survey respondents admitted to being angry or upset at the thought of a female president, when this question was nestled among other ones. This was considerably higher than what the traditional polls suggested at the time. Similarly, 2019 research showed that women became more than twice as likely to express misgivings about female leaders – and differences between Republicans and Democrats almost vanished – when questions were more masked.
Deep-seated biases
There’s a common belief among men and women alike that women are too delicate to lead. This matters because, according to a Wilson Center report on women’s public leadership in the Middle East and North Africa, “Public perceptions regarding women’s ability to lead is a key driver of how much power they will have while in office.” Political scientists have found that when asked direct, explicit questions about prejudice against women leaders, many survey respondents deny their prejudice Some people who don’t consider themselves sexist believe that because the world is sexist, women leaders are likely to be weaker. Sean Nguyen, a 33-year-old living in Los Angeles who runs a website that compares internet service providers, believes that “male leaders tend to have more authority. It’s wrong and I’d like to see that change, but … we have to work within the system we exist in.” Nguyen also admits that this preference extends to politics and business. “If I were completely honest, I would prefer a man to lead my company over a woman.”
These kinds of beliefs aren’t surprising, according to Alice Eagly, a psychologist at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. “The stereotype is that women aren’t agentic” – or decisive and authoritative – “and their voices aren’t as loud and they’re kind of small.” Because those are the types of traits traditionally associated with men and with leaders, notions of leadership have become bound up with perceptions of masculinity.
In working within and against these gender norms, women leaders may find themselves in a double bind. Political scientist Ono explains, “Female candidates face a more difficult time figuring out what would be the good strategy to win the election or get more support from people, because deviating from gender stereotypes might be bad for women. At the same time, conforming to gender stereotypes punishes them as well. So, it seems very difficult for female politicians to find the sweet spot when they plan their strategy.”
This double bind also applies to other groups that may be criticised whether they adhere to or push against biases. In multiracial societies, women of colour are often particularly penalised. For example, black women are stereotyped as too abrasive and Asian women are stereotyped as too docile to lead. Among women and minorities, “tokens” are highly visible within organisations and especially within positions of power, which creates an additional dilemma: excel, and become even more conspicuous and scrutinised; or moderate their achievements, to fit into dominant groups’ expectations.
Many of the characteristics of the Serengeti ecosystem in east Africa have been influenced by <u>volcanic activity in the region</u>
This is further explained below.
<h3>What is an ecosystem?</h3>
Generally, An ecosystem is made up of all the different kinds of species as well as the physical environment in which they live and function.
These biotic and abiotic parts are connected to one another through the cycling of nutrients and energy fluxes in the ecosystem.
In conclusion, The volcanic activity that has occurred in the area has had a significant impact on the ecology that exists in the Serengeti, which is located in east Africa.
In the context of the termination act, the government orders on the native Americans resulted in the <u>major economic upheaval for the affected tribes. </u>
Through the Termination Act, the Congress aimed at dislocation of the nativeAmerican Indian tribes, which means that they were disbanded and their lands were sold off. This came as a reversal of policies from the Self- government era.
The federal government was trying to terminate the special trustee relationship, tribes held with the United States. Although at the face value, this act seemed to be well-intended because it appeared that the federal government was trying to release tribes from federal control yet it affected the native American's rights.
Mindfulness is consciousness about surroundings. It is not about overwhelming and under the thinking that what is going on and where we are. It is about that mind is fully attending the stimulus that comes from the environment. It is a quality that every person holds inside themselves. It needs to understand how to use it.
<u>Some points are there that tells about mindfulness
</u>
If U.S. auto manufacturers cut the prices of their vehicles to sell a greater quantity, buyers may assume that the lower price implies a. a lower quality comparted to foreign manufactured vehicles.
Explanation:
The problem of quality over quantity is that the manufacturing of high-quality products requires more money and time, and this, of course, influences the final price, which makes them harder to sell, also making them less available. On the other hand, the manufacturing of low-quality products implies less money and time, a lower final price, and higher demand.
Merchandise Mart is liable for Trespassing on private property.
Explanation:
Luella has clearly trespassed on the private property of Merchandise Mart and the security guard is well within their rights to detain such person in the absence of the police.
<u>So the Merchandise Mart may put up a case for trespassing and civic disturbance during the hours of work, if they can prove that the premises entered are indeed private property </u>and not public access in which case Luella may have a right to defend themselves.
