The Utopia of Thomas More: a contemporary battleground

Article Abstract:

Thomas More's 'Utopia' is the result of the social factors that contributed to the degeneration of European society in the early 20th century. More wrote in the philosophical tradition of Plato and Aristotle, and an analysis of his work during the Renaissance period by Western scholars reveals the dichotomy of his work. More, through the incisive use of Socratic dialogues, examined two different cultures, thereby enabling future generations to choose the right path.

Burial of radioactive waste under the seabed

Article Abstract:

Burial of radioactive waste in the ocean bottom merits some consideration as ocean bottoms are disturbed little and that dispersal of waste in the event of canister rupture would be minimized to the sediment. Moreover, the economic benefits are enormous as risks are small.
