"On seeing England for the first time" AND Milgram, S. (2011). Behavioural study of obedience. Answers: The article "We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families" by Gourevitch reminds us of the tragic incident of Rwandan genocide which happened in 1994 (Gourevitch Stewart 2015). There were two populations in Rwanda namely Tutsi and Hutu. In this incident, the Tutsi's population were brutally killed by the Hutu's population (Weitz 2015). Both the population were similar in their identity had same language and culture and were historically same but it was the hatred for Tutsi population about economic issues that led to this massacre. The first part of the book reveals about the survivors conditions, about being threatened, their escape and how they lost their families in front of them. The second part deals with the post experiences of people after the genocide where the people who survived had drastic experiences about the incident and after that also for many years they had to live under threat and danger that they might not be killed (Thompson et al., 201 6). The article "Behavioral study of obedience" is related to the psychology. It is the universal element of nature which exists in every individual but nowadays it is overshadowed by the conformity. This article shows that obedience being the powerful element in one life but people emphasize more on their priorities. Being obedience requires that people should love towards themselves and to the other people and to their cultures, beliefs and practices which the people are not so (Baumrind 2013). These two articles differ in the individuals principles towards their life. In the first article people killed other people just for the sake of economic issues and different race (Mamdani, (2014). where person are taking the life of another without even giving a second thought, they all are the same and such race discrimination should not affect their lives but all was in vain. There was a massacre killing which led to a horrendous incident. Where as the second article shows that every individual should be obedient towards other and help them in every way out. The article summarizes that obedience is that tool which shows a persons character and by employing this in life one can get very successful as it helps them to cooperate and lead a peaceful life but the people has denied this and has given up their lives in the hands of their nerves to lead a materialistic and luxurious life rather than to live a life of obedience and peaceful. The article Unrepentant Whore reveals the life of a sex worker that these people dont have any sorts of protection for their entire life, and they are forced to the end of the society to live a life of unwanted and unfit (Pheterson 2015). The author through this article wants to convey that the government of such cities should make some policies for these workers so that they can lead a better life as they are also humans created by God and the author also emphasized that a people doesn't become a sex worker by its own, but the situations in his life make him do so. The making of the policies struck the author's mind when a drastic murder and abduction of the sex workers were taking place in many parts of Canada. The sex workers were either being killed, or they were missing from their homes. There was the scenario that someone was killing them because they were the sex workers. Thus, the life of the sex workers was not safe in Canada, and the women were brutally killed (Stardust 201 5). The article Professions for Women basically focuses on the life of women who want to have some profession in their life so that they can make their identity of themselves (Wolf 2013). But to do so for them was very difficult as they had to go through many obstacles to have a profession. In those days when many famous women like Fanny Burney, Aphra Behn made the path easier for women to have a profession and social world yet they were not given so because they were thought to please the population of men only (Singh et al., 2014). The author of the article says that she was just a writer who started writing from home sitting in the four corners of the wall without any investment but still she had to face many problems and at that time the Angel in the House used to bother her, trouble her she became the phantom for the author and at last the author killed her and the second experience the author shares was that though she became the novelist yet she had not been overcome the obstacles in her life as some prevailed because the society is dominated by the men where women need time to overspread. Both the articles have a similar idea which is about the women. The first article says about the story of a sex worker where a woman does not to want to go into this profession but she is forced by the society and when she enters this her life is not secure and at threat. The second article says that a woman who is in a writing profession also faces many obstacles in her life to get success as the male population does not let her do so (Evans-Lacko et al., 2013). So the women whether a sex worker or a normal writer confined in a room, are not safe and does not have much freedom to do of their own as they are dominated by the society of males. The article On Seeing England for the first time" the author Kincaid reveals about the views she had of England during her child hood days when she was in school. She has seen England for the very first time on the map and was very much fascinated by it (Mortimer 2013). Since her childhood, she had to accept the fact that England was the master in her life for everything as she used to live in the British colony. She compares England with her childhood experiences and when she grew up. In the phase of growing up, she saw the England changing too as it became the dictator in her life as her whole life was controlled by it. When she went to England for the first time after marriage she saw that people were rude, they were disobedient towards everything. The article "Behavioral Study of Obedience" by Milgram is a study on the people obedience towards themselves and also to the other people or situations in the life. The author says that in earlier days obedience was a tool for people personality, and people used to flaunt this through their activities and personality but with the passage of time this word became obsolete, and now no longer people are working on it but rather they have engrossed in this materialistic world and to the luxuries of it that they no longer require being obedient towards anyone. Nowadays people have become the slaves of their desires and their thoughts where they want to do that which they like or want and not what the society demands. So the author made a survey that how obedience affects the people through this study (Riva et al., 2014 ). Both the article has an underlying hidden idea which is obedience and respect for people or the society in which one is living. In the first article, the author imagined that England was a good place because she was made to learn so in her childhood days and from that time she imagined England in that way but when she grew up she saw that England had become a dictator for her which controlled her throughout though she dint had a chance to visit England, but when she went there after her marriage she was surprised to see that England is not the same as she thought to be. The customs, the people were selfish, they made discriminations against the people, and they dint even spare the monuments. The people dint show respect to the historic monuments and were disobedient in all respects. The view for England changed for the author as she grew up and it turned to full hatred when she saw the people behaviour towards her. The second article behavioral study of obedience reflects on the fact that no matter what people should be obedient towards their life or to anyone. They should not overlook this fact that being obedient makes people a better one and they can succeed in their life. By conducting the experiment on the obedience pattern, the author wants to show that there are the fewer number of people who are still obedient and wants to live their life that way, but they are curbed by the majority of those people who are disobedient and have given up their life in the hands of luxury and materialism. Thus, the two articles revolve around the same idea that people should be obedient and respectful towards everyone and all things in their life. References: Baumrind, D. (2013).
