Reluctance within the European Union to accept genetically modified crops may hinder the benefits of this technology reaching the developing world

There has been a tendency to shift our interest in intergroup relations from a soc to a psychol'al framework- from behavior patterns or institutions to att's or beliefs, from discrimination to prejudice, from a sociol't's to a soc psychol't's view of minority-majority relations. The most influential application of psychol'al concepts to the analysis of prejudice is THE AUTH- ORITARIAN PERSONALITY by T. W. Adorno et al. The thesis of this work is that diff's in child rearing patterns have led to 2 contrasting types of personality, authoritarian & democratic, & that prejudice or the lack of it is essentially a reflection of these 2 psyches. The concentration of psychol'ts on the allegedly prejudiced person has produced a relative indifference as to what the object of prejudice may be. Unfavorable judgments that are objectively founded -such as dislike for Communistscannot be considered prejudiced. J. A. Fishman.

Tim Parks, author of Where I'm Reading From, thinks ornate books like Catton's signal the increasingly formulaic highwire act of what he calls 'the dull new global novel.' He critiques the Spanish- Argentine writer Andres Neuman's Traveler of the Century and the Briton William Boyd's Waiting for Sunrise as 'complex literary novels together with the kind of high-tension plot that can attract a wider readership.' Imagine Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice without the provincial protocols of courtship in 19th-century Hertfordshire. The current shift in the novel dovetails with-and may even respond to-another development: Prestigious English-language book prizes, once limited to writers from a handful of countries, are opening up to worldwide competition. In 2013, when the Man Booker announced it would accept non-Commonwealth books, the decision drew fierce criticism. The world's writers and publishers are now invested in that game. While some novelists pander to the broadest possible international readership, however, many great ones still tilt in the other direction. Adapted from the source document.

Accompanying the spread of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) across the globe was a proliferation in anti-Asian hate crimes and political rhetoric. These discriminatory actions mirrored the prejudice exhibited towards other groups in past pandemics, such as Jewish populations in Europe during the Black Death between 1346 and 1353. This study aimed to determine similar patterns relating to and underlying the prejudice seen in past pandemics, focusing on three categories: hate crimes, political rhetoric, and religiosity. Prejudice against Jewish people during the Bubonic plague, Immigrants in America during the 1918 Flu, and Asian Americans during COVID-19 were investigated in this study because of the historical record of existing prejudice against these groups before the start of the pandemics. Overall, this study found that there was no general pattern of hate crimes during past pandemics without accompanying political rhetoric. In addition, there was no general pattern in religiosity in the pandemics studied, suggesting that the prejudice was not fueled by religious motivations. Given the small selection of pandemics analyzed in this study, further analysis with more pandemics could present more robust conclusions.
