Around the word many people has been creating ethnic differences between themselves, this is why we say that this is a common topic that can be seen in today’s society.
How discrimination, religion and prejudice can create ethnic conflicts. Base on differences like social status, economical status, and ethnic conflicts. Sometimes the social status gets affected because people believe that if someone has more money that person becomes superior to the other one. On the other hand there are other people that see differences between them just because they have a different accent, physical expressions, style of living, etc. In reference to the movie Crash (2010), that shows us how we can commonly find discrimination in the word. There was a scene where a Mexican guy worked as a locksmith and he was prejudging as a gang member or a thief. Buy a negligent women who had a high social status and this was because someone came to steal her house.
The movie shows us how is the real life in USA, a nation that was created mostly by immigrants. People usually tend to judge before knowing the other person. I remember a scene in the movie were they show that the accumulation of stress can guide us to become a violent person. Basically the scene show us were a police guy was trying to help a guy who abused of his authority previously in the movie.
Moreover, people create which the limits of the territories mark the diference of razes, because if you are from Nicaragua and me from Costa Rica, in this case there is a diference , even more. Jus because community think that Nicaraguans are citizens who steals , who don’t know like us, but theses things are visualizations from a group of Ticos who received a bad action, so then , they discriminated to Nicaraguans , and other persons generalize , constantly. Although there are bad Nicaraguans, like there are Bad Ticos , bad gringos; there are good people in wherever place, so the way to generalize is wrong. We should to see the people not like group fate like a person , and try to know them, and finally create an image.
A way to reduce incident of ethnic conflicts is asking ourselves “What if?” asking ourselves that question will make it more easy to understand someone else point of view or state of mind. As it was explained in the previous ideas ethnic conflicts are very common; do to that misunderstanding whenever you ask your selves what if the other guy is from another religion? What if he has another point of view? Prejudice takes another role in ethnic conflicts; most of us tend to judge base on person lucks, style of living, etc. We need to have an open mind mentality and be able to understand and accept people ethnic differences.

Globalization of Infection Diseases

Globalization is a series of complex process which includes the exchange of cultures. Globalization is causing the destruction of people cultures; this is because we have a consumer mentality, everyone wants to get more and more material stuff. We always are thinking to get the latest devices like cellphones, LCD TV, computers, video games, etc.; instead of thinking how help others that need food, water, and clothes. As a result of the globalization, each country has part of other nations. As a consequence of this exchange of culture, also there are things which don’t want to be transmitted outside, like infection diseases (ID) that can be easily spread around the world. whenever a person travels to another country , it is possible that he or she are infected with a command disease that can affect a huge population, but they don’t know; so, when they have a direct contact with other persons, and in this moment is potential some possibility to transmit an infectious disease. The exchange among cultures spread infections easily and fast; for example, AIDS, cholera, diarrhea, yellow fever etc.
The exchange of cultures is a big way to meet people, but is a big way to come down with infectious diseases, why? Because citizens in the moment when they interact between them, is very probably who they have diseases, in cases like unprotected sexual intercourse. The most dangerous infectious diseases about unprotected sexual intercourse is the HIV/AIDS, (this condition progressively reduces the effectiveness of the immune system and leaves individuals susceptible to opportunistic infections and tumors. HIV is transmitted through direct contact with a bodily fluid, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluid, preseminal fluid and breast milk, as a consequence of this practice without protection. On the other hand there is prostitution, that create an opportunity to get different kinds of diseases, because they are unprotected to the society, by the way, they get different costumers who can be transmitted to HIV. Also do to poverty, prostitution is very common in different countries, because is one of the few jobs that people can be do, even thought this is a dangerous employment.
Historically infectious diseases have been the most important contributor to human mortality. The term infectious diseases does not refer to any kind of illness; just imagine that in high income countries dead from infectious diseases (ID) can be commonly caused by diarrhea, HIV/AIDS, etc. Meanwhile other countries in Africa (third world countries) there is more mortality do to ID; is commonly caused by hunger, consuming contaminated food, even polluted water, germs etc. The process of globalization potentially influences a broad range of biological, environmental factors. An infection occurs when a microorganism survives and multiplies whiten another usually larger organism. The infected organism (human being) usually called the host.
