Education essay

What to talk about education?
I don't know very well, but I know that education always is a controvertial theme here in Chile.
In my opinion the education is the most fundamental value to the people en the world. I think, that, with education the world can reaches the peace.
but now talking about the education in Chile I believe that also education is fundamental for our society, because with education we can progress and go forward, with intagration and justice. I also believe that the education, has to be afforded by the state and with the cooperation of the privates, because, thinking the education, as a inversion on human capital has to be also supported by the privates.
The privates support can be achieved by the tax rates and states educationals programmes with the privates cooperation.
In shortly that's what I think about the education, a strongly state intervention (about quality and fairness) and responsibles privates.
Goodbye, good luck in your exams and have a good holidays!!!

FINAL TASK: "SUMMARY" (task 7)

My final task for the course, it’s about, a personal and favourite theme, The Legal Theory, of Ronald Dworkin. This subject pursuit my since I enter to the university, my first approach with this theme was in the law introduction class. Now I’m going to present you a summary about an interesting website about it.

http://www.jasononline.com/law/juris.htm

Summary:

He criticizes legal positivism, principally about three main ideas:

· He rejects the idea that in hard cases (normally the cases where rules do not apply) exist total discretion for the judges to decide. For the contrary, he thinks that there is always a right answer to the specific case.
This right answer can be achieved by the application of moral principles.

· Related with the previous part, leads us to his second critic to the positivism: that all laws reduce to positive law. For him that is wrong, because, he thinks instead that moral principles constitute a fundamental part of legal theory.

· He opposes to Hart’s Rule of Recognition, which is the conception that exists a Master Rule in every legal system that identifies valid laws; because it supposes an uncontroversial of identifying law.
In Dworkin’s theory, on the other hand, this process can be controversial, because the judge always has to interpret law and weigh the different principles in dispute.

Finally, with Dworkin’s theory, the judge always reaches the answer for the concrete case in particular, using law and principles.

A song that i like

The song is "Virtual Insanity" of Jamiroquai, I found it very good, because it has a very good and truly lyric, besides the rythm is nice and easy to hear. I find the song really pleasant and also has a great video.
The band: J-kay is the leader of Jamiroquai, they play funk music, but also they fusion funk/ethnical and funk/pop. They usually play songs you can relax to or excite you, they handle very well the changes, pauses and fusions.

I hope you like it!!!

JAMIROQUAI

"VIRTUAL INSANITY"

Oh yeah what we're living in (let me tell ya)
It' a wonder man can eat at all
When things are big
That should be small
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us.
And I'm giving all my love to this world
Only to be told
I can't see, I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's gonna change the way we live
Cuz we can always take and never give
And now that things are changing for the worse,
See, it's a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these

Futures made of virtual insanity
now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh now there is no sound for we all live underground

And I'm thinking in what a mess we're in
Hard to know when to begin
If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
And now every mother can choose the color of her child
That's not nature's way
Well that's what they said yesterday
There's nothing left to do but pray
I think it's time I found a new religion
Whoaaa it's so insane to synthesize another strain
There's something in these futures that we have to be told.

Futures made of virtual insanity
now always seem, to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting of our then new technology
Oh now there is no sound for we all live underground

Now there's no sound if we all live underground
And now it's virtual insanity
Forget your virtual reality
Oh, there's nothing so bad, I know yeah
(Bridge)
Oh, this virtual insanity, we're living in,
Has got to change, yeah
Things will never be the same
And I can't go on
While we're living in oh, oh virtual insanity
Oh, this world has got to change
Cos I just, I just can't keep going on, it was virtual,
Virtual insanity that we're living in, that we're living in
That virtual insanity is what it is

Chorus x2:

Futures made of virtual insanity
now always seem to be governed by this love we have
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Oh there is no sound for we all live underground

Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity
Living - Virtual Insanity

Virtual Insanity is what we're living in
