... and to examine the various motives involved. One interesting factor, from my point of view, is how the ‘traditional’ organised economic crime has adapted to the worldwide potential of globalisation.

It means that although American society is no longer training women to be submissive, the problem is still present in our belief system. Many churches do not believe that women should be par ...
