Summary/Abstract |
How people react to information that runs counter to their opinions is useful for understanding their opinion consistency. This pilot study examined the consistency of students' opinions concerning the invasion and occupation of Iraq. Initial views of US policy and the role of the United Nations were elicited from 100 students. The participants were then exposed to dissonant inputs in the form of scenarios and prompt items. We predicted that opinion shift would occur as participants tried to manage the conflicting information. Constraint was measured using McNemar and chi-square tests. Anti-US policy opinion shifted significantly, but pro-UN opinion did not.

Summary/Abstract |
Globalization, climate change, and geopolitical concerns have become interwoven at the top of the world in ways unanticipated at the end of the Cold War. Even though the Arctic is a relatively small are on the planet, the entire region is becoming integrated with the rest of the global economy, primarily through exploration and development of a large, untapped storehouse of natural resources.

Summary/Abstract |
Barack Obama took office as President of the United States of America on 20 January, 2009. At a time when the United States is in crisis, becuase of the Bush doctrine, the strategic blunder (in Obama's words) of the Iraqui war and the disasters caused by the financial turmoil, the American people place a lot of hope o the new President, and the international community also has expectations in varying degrees of him. Those who are interested in international affirs are all closely following what he says and does in the hope to discern the trend of his foreing policy.
