  Fear Conditioning - Training...

  Fear conditioning is a psychological phenomenon in which individuals learn to associate fear with a specific stimulus. This process is a form of classical conditioning, where a neutral stimulus becomes linked to an aversive experience, causing a conditioned fear response. Fear conditioning is fundamental to human and animal behavior, playing a crucial role in survival, but it can also contribute to anxiety disorders, phobias, and social manipulation. 
  The foundation of fear conditioning was laid by Ivan Pavlov’s classical conditioning experiments, later expanded by John B. Watson in his controversial “Little Albert” study. In this experiment, a young child was conditioned to fear a white rat by pairing its presence with a loud, frightening noise. This research demonstrated how fear responses could be artificially created and generalized to other stimuli. The brain plays a central role in this process, particularly the amygdala, which is responsible for processing emotional reactions and linking experiences with fear. 
  Fear conditioning occurs in many aspects of life, from early childhood experiences to societal influences. Parents, teachers, and authority figures may unintentionally condition children to associate certain actions, places, or people with fear, shaping their behavior and worldview. For example, a child punished harshly for speaking out may develop a lifelong fear of confrontation. Similarly, fear conditioning is a powerful tool used in politics, advertising, and the media to influence public perception and behavior.

  Founding Fanatics - Extremism...

  Scholars and citizens have often assumed that dispassionate rationality, reciprocity, and nonviolent tolerance are necessary conditions for the sustained development of democracy. Accordingly, they reject oppositional parties that spurn consensus and terms of mutual respect—and often use force to accomplish their political goals—denouncing extremists as antidemocratic.Founding Fanatics questions this understanding, examining how moments of tension, violence, and extremism in the US have sometimes served the pursuit of political equality. Noah Eber-Schmid focuses his analysis on the American Founding era, presenting case studies of the early memorialization of the Boston Massacre, popular debates over Shays' Rebellion, the thought and practices of the Democratic Societies, and the use of the French Revolution in political discourse. From this account of popular politics in the Founding era, Eber-Schmid draws new insights for theoretical approaches to contemporary American democracy, challenging assumptions that extremism is always a negative or antidemocratic force. By recognizing the role that democratic extremism has played in the development of American popular democracy, political theorists and citizens will better understand how such movements may contribute to the struggle to deepen and expand political equality and participation that continues today.

  Teachers and Translators: Enhancing their Reading and Writing Skills recommends that language teachers incorporate the reading and writing connection together with the influence of L1 culture as essential elements to achieve textual competence in the target language. The use of challenging magazine and newspaper articles with post-intermediate and advanced language learners has always been a priority in ESP (English for Specific Purposes). The purpose is to activate students' background knowledge, consolidate their critical thinking skills, raise their awareness in relation to varieties of English, figures of speech and coinages and, at the same time, encourage classroom research in such fields as journalese, legal and business English. Expository essay-writing is also incorporated in the course, following such patterns as the Comparison and Contrast essay and the Classification form
