The Shocking Truth about Big Pharma

Zoey Fraisers

The story of Big Pharma begins with the evolution of medicine from small-scale, localized practices to a global, multibillion-dollar industry. The roots of modern pharmaceuticals can be traced back to ancient apothecaries, where remedies were crafted from natural ingredients like herbs and minerals. These early pharmacists laid the groundwork for scientific exploration, yet their operations were often informal, relying on traditional knowledge rather than rigorous testing. 
The 19th century marked a pivotal turning point with the rise of industrialization and the advent of chemical synthesis. Pioneers in chemistry discovered how to isolate active compounds, such as aspirin from willow bark, transforming medicine from an art into a science. This period saw the birth of pharmaceutical companies that began producing standardized drugs on a large scale, laying the foundation for today’s industry. 
As the field advanced, so did the pursuit of patents. Patents were initially intended to protect innovation and encourage research, but they also introduced the potential for monopolization. By securing exclusive rights to produce and sell certain medications, pharmaceutical companies gained unprecedented power over pricing and distribution. While patents incentivized progress, they also set the stage for conflicts between public health needs and corporate profits.

The Politics of Urban...

Lyric Vale

Urban development has long been a critical component of economic and social growth worldwide. As populations continue to increase and cities expand, the planning, management, and policies surrounding urban spaces become ever more complex. Urban development encompasses the physical, economic, and social transformation of cities, focusing on housing, infrastructure, transportation, and public spaces, while also addressing broader issues such as economic disparity, environmental sustainability, and social justice. 
Historically, urbanization has been driven by industrialization, technological advancements, and shifts in global economic patterns. The migration of people from rural to urban areas in search of better job opportunities and living conditions has accelerated this process. As a result, cities have grown in both size and importance, becoming hubs for innovation, culture, and commerce. However, this growth has not come without challenges. Rapid urbanization often leads to overcrowded living conditions, increased pollution, traffic congestion, and the strain of public services. 
At the heart of urban development is the relationship between power, policy, and planning. Political decisions and governmental priorities often shape the trajectory of cities, influencing everything from zoning laws and land use to infrastructure development and housing affordability. In this context, urban planning becomes not just a technical exercise, but a deeply political one, with differing interests—ranging from developers and business leaders to community groups and activists—competing for influence. The way these decisions are made can either foster inclusivity and equity or exacerbate social inequalities.
