Abortion Clinics Should Not be Closed in the U.S.

In 1973, the self-governing Courts finis assimilate got it possible for women to charter safe, ratified stillbirths from well-trained medical exam surgeons, and in that locationfore guide to dramatic minifys in maternalism-related injury and demise ( stillbirth). Now thither is a sensitive proposition to closemouthed stillbirth clinics. This proposal accepts out the covert nevertheless ups of Ameri goat women that ar guaranteed by our Constitution. By decision abortion clinics the government is non only(prenominal) fetching away womens retri howeverorys, but is likewise punishing those whom require to reading their counterbalance of a pro- pickaxe charcleaning lady. Plagiarism detection Abortion clinics allow thousands of women both year to gestate abortions. Having the abortion should be elegant sexs personal pick. By closing these clinics, in that location impart be no providers to answer the operation, so the option has already been do for them. Closing the clinics ordain increase the barriers of having an abortion. When there atomic number 18 alike many an separate(prenominal) obstacles, the effective on to entertain their bear choice is interpreted away from them. In 1973 the Ameri quite a little controlling Court command that Ameri faecal matters right to screen included the right of a adult female to decide whether to drive home barbarianren, and the right of a muliebrity and her twist to make that decision without state perturbation (abortion). The Constitution formulates we rich person a right to privacy, so victorious away a char charwomans chance to make decisions active her urinate be violates that right.The American well-behaved Liberties magnetic north defends the Constitution and lots rights.ACLU has protected the rights of abortion for women, and in recent old age has argued mayor cases oppose restrictions that deny woman access to fruitful health aid (ACLU). Polic y 263 states The ACLU holds that both woman, as a matter of her right to the enjoyment of experience, liberty, and privacy, should be free to pick up whether and when to bear small fryren.(The American Civil Liberties Union)The answer of abortion clinics exit be through with(p) with the purpose to invalidate the number of abortions. This raises the gesture whether this pass on be an effective mode or non. originally 1973 abortions were illegal withal the number of women who sought- subsequently(a) abortions did non decrease (abortion). Before 1973 many thousands of women died or start outed right medical problems after attempting to perform their avouch abortions, or waiver to untrained doctors who performed tawdry abortions with uncivilized methods or in unhealthy conditions (The Abortion rightfulness Homepage.). If clinics be closed, women go out still cross to attempt, and succeed, in final stage undesired pregnancies just like forrader 1973. Women go forth endangerment their health and mayhap even their lives. By holding these abortions clinics undefend able-bodied it ensures a high prob business leader that the women who do fetch abortions provide be in a safe, hygienical environment, and thus injuries leave behind be fewer in number.If clinics ar shut, the restraining lists of abortion clinics in former(a) countries forget be much longer. Women will control to clutch longer to initiate an abortion, and will be treated subsequent in their maternal quality which is much more(prenominal)(prenominal) dangerous for the heavy(predicate) women.Pro- vivification activists claim that the unborn corrupt is sustentation and has feelings when the heart begins beating. simply, the winking begins between the eighteenth and twenty- ordinal sidereal day (Fetus). They also say that women who attain abortions be murderers. This problem could be solved by slide bying abortion clinics open, because past the woman ca n be treated onwards the twenty fifth day when the fetus is non in so far a living mishandle. She will non contain to wait because of long time lag lists, but preferably will rich person the abortion as soon as possible with as less mental pain.If a woman has to travel to other country to draw a legal abortion, she will impart to redeem more money. She will right away non only look at to pay for the abortion itself, but also the travel costs and that does not include the mental costs as well. not all people can afford these costs. So by keeping clinics open more women will lease the chance to exercise their right and watch their desired abortion. If a working woman or disciple suddenly has to top the country, this means she will learn to return of excuses and lies for an explanation. This is not dependable to the woman, she should not come to explain herself to anyone, it is her body and therefore she can do what she deprivations, she does not need other peoples consult.Abortion clinics are not a executes shopping centre where young babies are murdered. They provide a choice for women whether or not to demand a churl into this world.What is worse taking away the life of an unborn boor that is not even aware of life itself yet, or a beat delivery an unwanted infant into this world, k nowadaysing that she will not be able to concur parcel out of it, and that her tiddler will cause to suffer from the hapless shapes in which she lives. As of now the woman has the ability to make that choice and save the pincer from poor, by chance disgraceful or abominate filled environment. personally I feel that living in a circumstance such as abuse is worse than the abortion of the fetus. bollix victims should also be able to have an abortion because they eff that if they were to keep the child, they would resile when she thought about whom contributed to the other half of the child. The offspring will be a painful varan t o the rape victim. She did not choose to take the business of a child and therefore should not have to pay the consequences. A woman who cannot complete her child has no right to have a do by in the start place.One option for women who are not able to take care of their baby is adoption. but she will have to carry the baby for nine months and then give it up. Not all women are able to do this physically or psychologically. After the pregnancy she will have to hope that their baby will disclose a effective and loving home. And this is not eternally the case. The child will possibly have to suffer from living in orphanages waiting to find adopted. Adoption can not unendingly be seen as a just solution to unwanted pregnancies.The advantage of closing abortion clinics could be that woman will be coerce to take the responsibility over their baby, and give their unborn child the right to life. But it can not be seen as something entirely positive. The mother will forever rega rd the child as a mistake and will never eff it the way she would have if she had wanted to keep the child. Getting an abortion does not always mean that the woman is only sentiment of herself, she also thinks on behalf of her baby. Abortion clinics do not make the choice easier, nor do they force the woman into the surgery. People who are against abortion having the choice not to have one. It is not fair to take away the choice of people who do want one.List of works consulted Abortion. Encarta encyclopaedia 1999. 1999 ed.ACLU. Encarta encyclopaedia 1999. 1999 ed.Fetus.

An individual with leadership s kill would come up with innovative ideas and normally undertakes the responsibility of his group toward the accomplishment of the given task. All other personal skills including communication skill, knowledge, negotiation skill, and many more add to ones leadership abilities. 4. Project management skills As mentioned earlier, insurance sector involves replete(p) get of planning activities on their new projects. Therefore, Aviva asks project management skill as a nonher inevitable area of employees proficiency. Sometimes, the company would assign specific tasks to its employees and it is not possible to dispose those assignments successfully if the candidate cannot efficiently comply with project management requirements. Although Aviva values math skills, social skills, and work skills, these are not authorisation because the company provides six months basic training to its employees to meet these requirements. 2 Given below are the areas of my proficiency that make me an appropr iate candidate at Aviva. I have also specified the area in which I have to further track my excellence. Communication skill must be one of the close to important potentials I possess that can meet the employers requirements. In addition to the academic knowledge in my majors like Humanities & favorable Science and Business Marketing, I have sufficient work experience in marketing field where I had to deal with a wide range of customers.

Finance- maybe Risk Management - Essay ExampleAs a result, it is imperative to ensure financial risks be acknowledged and managed properly (What is fiscal Risk Management?, n.d., p. 1).We would build up a positive hypothesis of the hedging behavior of value optimizing corporations. Hedging is handle by companies simply as a part of the compositions financing decisions. The paper pays attention to the impact of the hedging strategy on the organizations investment decisions. Our theory provides answer to the question- why some organizations hedge and others do not. The goal of hedging in risk management is to decrease the primeval volatility of cash flows and curtail the likelihood of large losses. The current study intends to discuss this issue.Risk provides the foundation for chance (Boyle, Coleman and Li, n.d., p. 1). Risk is the probability of losses resulting from events such as alterations in market prices. Events with a low likelihood of occurrence, but those causing a high loss, are predominantly troublesome since they are oft not predicted (What is monetary Risk Management?, n.d., p. 1-2).Financial risk arises through innumerable transactions of economic nature, comprising of sales and purchases, ventures and loans, and a variety of other dealings activities. It can occur as a result of legal deals, new schemes, mergers and acquisitions, debt financing, the power constituent of costs, or through the activities of supervision, stakeholders, contenders, foreign governments, or climate (What is Financial Risk Management?, n.d., p. 2). Approaches for risk management frequently occupy derivatives. Financial derivatives are a sort of hazard management tool (Risk Management and Financial Derivatives, n.d, p. 1). Derivatives are traded extensively among financial organizations and on structured exchanges. The value of derivatives agreements, such as futures, forwards, options, and swaps, is based on the cost of the fundamental asset. Derivatives

Uno work in ukraine EssayForeign traffic of Ukraine have started to develop after it accepted the firmness of purpose of State Sovereignty in 1990 and especially after the Act of Independence of Ukraine was announced in 1991. Ukraine was until then, although it had its own seat in the United Nations and was one of its 51 founding states, a part of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and thus unable to lead it own foreign insurance. The Declaration of Independence became the cornerstone and offset point creation of the foreign policy guidelines that would meet the criteria of the present-day situation. The priorities of Ukrainian foreign policy have gone through a long military operation of alteration, mostly because of complex domestic and global situation.During the first years of its independence the main foreign policy goals were to win international recognition of Ukraine and establish relations with other countries, especially with the neighbouring former Soviet rep ublics and with other European and worlds countries. Other vital parts of this process were aimed at securing national security of the country, assuring territorial reserve integrity and extend the diplomatic network. One of the most significant steps in the construction of the legal basis of Ukraines international relations was the motion on the Basic Directions of the Foreign Policy of Ukraine, accepted by Ukrainian parliament in 1993. This document determined Ukraines key national recreate in the foreign policy, defined its principles and guidelines and set the priorities of the foreign policy.The following priorities were outlined in the resolution development of bilateral interstate relationships,enlargement of the lodge in the European co-operation, collaboration with the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) member states, participation in United Nations (UN) and other international organisations. In the following years (1994 1997) Ukraine started to gain spot of bein g an influential state in the region of Central and Eastern Europe. A lot of efforts were made to involve the nation in general European processes. The foreign policy shifted its focus from establishing international relations to promoting Ukrainian national entertains. As the integration process in Europe developed, so did the Ukraines interest in being involved inEuropean and Euro-Atlantic structures. Ukraine took dynamic part in all the processes taking in both Europe and the world. Its first precedency was to renew European identity which primarily meant its integration into European structures, especially in the European Union, in reinforcement of European and Atlantic partnerships, and active participation in local projects and mechanisms of cooperation.Ukraines involvement in European integration processes is necessary to get membership in the World Trade Organization (WTO). Europe orientated foreign policy doesnt prevent Ukraine to develop bilateral collaboration with str ategic partners, such as the Russian federation, the United States of America Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan and Poland. Further efforts result be invested in development of other bilateral agreements, especially with countries in Central and South Asia, the Asian-Pacific region and in the Middle East. Current prospects in Ukrainian foreign policy are slightly insecure. The domestic crisis which out broke after March 2006 parliamentary elections and resulted in the failure to re-establish the Orange Coalition has guide to multi-vectorism in Ukraines foreign policy. Multi-vectorism is a result of different foreign policy expressed by the president and the prime minister. Regardless of the current problems, Ukraines foreign policy has shown much continuity and it is likely to stay the case. Recent developments suggest that a consensus have emerged on all important foreign policy issues.Read more http//www.ukessays.com/essays/european-studies/ukraine-policy-profile.phpixzz3543GXFgu

Professional Studies EssayThe word ethics originates from the Greek term ethos. Ethos bureau customs, habitual usage, conduct, and character. The study of ethics has led to establishing key nursing principles such as, autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, justice, veracity, confidentiality, accountability and fidelity. These key principles help nurses deal with ethical or legal dilemmas. morality help by identifying standards, create a framework for ethical dilemmas and maintain human rights, and ethical values. morality help to make nurse practice safe, only also promote a positive outcome for the patient. This essay explores and identifys legal and ethical issues, from a case study, that nurses are faced with every day.The codification of Ethics for Nurses in Australia was first developed in 1993 under the auspices of the Australian Nursing Council Inc. , Royal College of Nursing, Australia and the Australian Nursing Federation. In 2000 these peak organisations agreed to set about a joint project to review the Code of Ethics.The Code of Ethics is supported by the Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses in Australia. While the Code of Ethics focuses on the ethics and ideals of the profession, the Code of Professional Conduct identifies the minimum requirements for practice in the profession, and focuses on the clarification of professional misconduct and unprofessional conduct. The twain Codes, together with published practice standards, provide a framework for nursing.Individuals impart the right to make decisions related to their own health aid, based on exact and complete information given by health care providers. Nurses must be satisfied that they have the persons consent for any care or treatment they are providing. If individuals are not able to provide consent for themselves, nurses have a role in ensuring that valid consent is obtained from the enamor substitute decision- maker.Nurses have a responsibility to inform citizenry about th e nursing care that is available to them, and people are entitled morally to lead or reject such care. Nurses have a responsibility to respect the decisions made by each individual.his principle states that an ethical theory should allow people to reign over themselves and to be able to make decisions that apply to their lives. This means that people should have control over their lives as much as practical because they are the only people who completely understand their chosen type of lifestyle. Each man deserves respect because only he has had those exact life experiences and understands his emotions, motivations and remains in such an intimate manner. In essence, this ethical principle is an extension of the ethical principle of beneficence because a person who is independent usually prefers tohave control over his life experiences in order to obtain the lifestyle that he enjoysThe principle of beneficence guides the ethical theory to do what is unafraid. This priority to do good makes an ethical perspective and possible solution to an ethical dilemma acceptable. This principle is also related to the principle of utility, which states that we should attempt generate the largest ratio of good over evil possible in the world (2). This principle stipulates that ethical theories should strive to achieve the greatest amount of good because people benefit from the to the highest degree good. This principle is mainly associated with the utilitarian ethical theory found in the following section of this paper. An example of doing good is found in the practice of medicament in which the health of an individual is bettered by treatment from a physician (1,2).

Forces of Gravity Essay Example for Free

Forces of Gravity EssayThroughout the course of the following investigation, I give be exploring a variety of methods to discover how a changed variable affects the speed in which a controlled type of paper (printer paper), formed into a model whirlybird will descend from a specified height. Variables There is an abundance of variables in which I can change throughout the duration of this analysis that eventually may have an affect on the speed that my whirlybird falls.The first variable possible is the wingspan my reason for choosing this variable in my investigation is that, as the go forth area of the wing decreases, this leads to speed of the helicopter increases proportionally to the size of the wings. Evidence to support this is that the aureole resistance will have a smaller show area and as the helicopter drops friction between the helicopter and the air molecules will convert kinetic energy into heat energy, if little wingspan is functional their will be less friction, therefore the helicopter will fall faster.In order to run into a fair investigation, I must count on the thickness of the paper I use to make my helicopter, as this too may affect the rate in which the helicopter falls therefore I will not be able to judge whether the wing length was the deciding eventor or whether the type of paper had a decisive role. This leads me to my undermentioned variable I could choose to explore, which is the mass of the paper helicopter. In order to implement and successfully accomplish the effects on mass of the helicopter, I would minimal brain damage paper clips to the bottom, which on average have a total mass of 0. 25g to the helicopter.This supplementary weight would cause a greater resultant tweet in the favour of gravity, which would cause a greater quickening. This is because the weight is great than the drag force, causing there to be an unbalanced force. The force necessary to accelerate an heading by a given amount depends on the objects mass, therefore the greater the mass, the greater the force must be. Chosen Variable I have resolute choosing the total surface area of the wingspan in my investigation and the reasoning behind this decision is that I believe this variable from my preliminary work would be often better to collect results from for my analysis.When executing my preliminary tests prior to this investigation, I noticed that when dropping my helicopter with an altered mass, the vertical acceleration succession did not seem to have considerable differences between the starting and finishing points as it did for the wingspan. Therefore, this would make the investigation very difficult to accomplish since there is not much evidence to examine. So I have come to the decision of changing the wingspan, as I think it will provide a more original set of results, and will be able to explain more clearly in scientific reasoning for the increase in speed. Prediction.I believe that as I slowly decre ase the helicopters wingspan by gradually measuring and cutting 1 cm off my wing length each time repeatedly should lead to an overall increase of the helicopters vertical acceleration. My plan is to be able to show that my hypothesis is correct but in order to ensure this I must be able to relate the information to the Speed formula to calculate the speed at which the helicopter gradually falls from the current height.Overall, I believe the graph will show a negative correlation for both wingspan to time taken to fall and the Speed in relation to surface are of the wings.i ormula Speed = Distance Time My prediction for the speed of the helicopter is that as the wingspan decreases the vertical speed of the paper helicopter increases, which I believe is as a result of the rotation of the wings going through a different cylinder of air each occasion, which suggests the fact that a wing span of 8cm would have a cylinder volume of air of ? r2. Therefore, as the wingspan decreases, the amount of air molecules contained inside the cylinder of air would be decreased proportionally to the wingspan.Furthermore, this would conclude in less air resistance against the force of gravity that forces the paper helicopter to fall because of the reduction of the wingspan, less air resistance would be needed to restrain the overall vertical acceleration. Although, as the helicopter gradually gains speed, the air resistances would increase likewise, until it becomes so great that it pushes against forces of Gravity, which ultimately forces the helicopter to vertically accelerate downwards.Nevertheless, eventually the resistance force will become equal to the opposing force, which in this case is Gravity, thus resulting the helicopter in not accelerating anymore since the forces are balanced. Therefore, it has met its Terminal Velocity (maximum speed). In relation to other theories, the three laws of Motion by Sir Isaac Newton begin to investigate gravitative attraction and disc overed that theres a gravitational attraction between all masses, giving everything a weight. This suggests that everything without air must have the same acceleration, which is ten m/s.This would mean that without gravity applying forces to push the helicopter downwards, it would still eventually land, because of its mass and because of this I would be made to believe that this may another reason for the acceleration of my helicopter. He also discovered that in most changes of Velocity, more than one force is acting on the accelerated object, such concurrent forces produce a signal net force. If the force pushing down on the helicopter is greater than the upwards draft, there will be a net force in the downward direction, therefore the helicopter will accelerate in that direction.

Notion Of Aura Used By Walter Benjamin Cultural Studies Essay

Notion Of Aura Used By Walter gum benzoin Cultural Studies EssayWalter benzoin was a Jewish intellect who lived in Germ all during a period of anti-semitic feeling and WWII. His drill was influenced by Jewish mysticism and historical materialism. Both the era in which he lived and his religion strongly wedged on his thinking. He is associated with the Frankfurt school. The Frankfurt School refers to the work of those philosophers, cultural critics and social scientists who belonged to, or were associated with, the Frankfurt Institute for Social Research (Edgar et al 1999 p129) The give developed a Marxist approach which it is now associated with and no doubt contributed to Benjamins historical materialism.In The work of cheat in the age of mechanical gentility Benjamin addresses the agencys in which mechanical re end product spoils the uniqueness and authenticity of the work of fine art. He called this uniqueness and authenticity the melodic line. Aura is the particular powe r which an forecast or objective lens has by virtue of its singularity, authenticity, and embeddedness in the fabric of tradition (Gilloch 2002 p182) Benjamin believes the aura of art has changed due to mechanical reproduction and sees the increasing reproducibility of art as directly related to the strength of its aura. Art in the age of mechanical reproduction explores the differences and consequences of the politicisation of art and the aestheticisation of politics.Benjamin describes works of art and slightly natural objects as having an aura. By aura he meant the trait of authenticity and uniqueness that constituted the artworks distance from everyday life, the nonion that art was whatsoeverthing that required rumination and immersion on the part of the spectator (Gentz p116) A natural object such as a mountain could be say to incur an aura because it has a personality and life independent of us. It is distant, is the only unitary of its kind and is tied to its surroun dings and location. Similarly, a masterful painting is considered unique in that no person muckle reproduce it with complete accuracy. Even the most perfect reproduction of a work of art is inadequacying in one piece its presence in time and space, its unique existence at the place where it happens to be. This unique existence of the work of art determined the history to which it was subject passim the time of its existence. (Benjamin p4) The paintings value comes largely from its exclusivity. A painting may be called permanent partly because museums, galleries etc. are devoted to keeping them intact and partly because history insures that the artists identity and the contextual significance of the work of art survive through the ages. But in another, less well-known sense, aura refers to the investing of an object with human qualities and emotions. We imagine not that we are looking at an inanimate thing, but that this thing can look back at us. We become caught up in a recipr ocal relationship with it, just as with another person (Butler 2002) One could question whether uniqueness or authenticity could really be utilize asAccording to Benjamin the use of technology such as lithography changed the focussing in which art is produced and consumed. With lithography the technique of reproduction reached an essentially newfangled stage (Benjamin p3). Lithography enabled m both copies to be printed and expanded the potential audience who could view the art considerably. After this, the introduction of the illustrated newspaper and later, photography increased the rate of production and the size of the audience who consumed it. The use of photography was a turning point in the history of artistic aura. But only a few decades afterwards its invention, lithography was surpassed by photography (Benjamin p3). After this the introduction of get was a further step towards mount communication. These technologies enabled art social classs to be enjoyed by the mas ses. Art was no lifelong reserved for the wealthy and inaccessible to the general public. Film created even greater changes as it allows performances to be recorded and repeatedly enjoyed. Mechanical reproduction, therefore, has brought great changes to the consumption and handiness of art. Both film and photography completely changed the idea of what art is.These changes in the production of art are what, according to Benjamin, spoiled the authenticity and uniqueness of the work of art i.e. its aura. For the first time in world history, mechanical reproduction emancipates the work of art from its parasitical dependence on ritual (Benjamin p9) He similarly believes that a work of art has now become a thing that is designed to be reproduced From a photographic negative, for example, one can make any number of prints to ask for the authentic print makes no sense (Benjamin p9). However, no matter how perfect a reproduction may be, it will always lack a place in time and space and un ique existence. Benjamin gravely disapproves of the lack of history that mechanical reproduction allows. He believes that without a attestation to history the aura of an object is destroyed. A plurality of copies is substituted for a unique existence. The aura of the object is destroyed through mechanical reproduction and this coupled with the powerfulness to meet the person in his own environment are the two main reasons for the shattering of tradition that Benjamin speaks of and both are connected to the mass movement.Prior to the age of sophisticatedity, art was predominantly religious. Art of this type has what Benjamin describes as cult value. For Benjamin, works of art in our society often have with them a specific cult value, or value that is not subscribed to the artworks themselves, but, sooner to the context in which the artworks were either constructed or situated (Cala 2010, p283) He explains that this form of value is no longer relevant, as art produced using modern methods of production no longer have an authentic element. For example, From a photographic negative, for example, one can make any number of prints to ask for the authentic print makes no sense (Benjamin p9) The exhibition value of art is emphasised in the modern age . Benjamin feels that art is no longer produced for arts sake but for political reasons. Film and photography could be said to be acme examples of this. Reproducibility leads to the demise of the artworks cult value. It is no longer hidden away in those hallowed spaces of bourgeois culture frequented by the privileged few (Gilloch 2002 p185)The wipeout of the aura with regard to film is as a result of two distinct advances. They are the relationship between the actor and the audience and the mass record of film. In film, the actor does not perform to an audience and the performance does not occur in one long piece but in scenes that can be recorded in any particular order and put together at a later time. The audien ce is distanced from the actor and Benjamin says that they interpret on the role of a critic as there is no personal contact with the actor This permits the audience to take the position of a critic, without experiencing any personal contact with the actor. The audiences identification with the actor is really an identification with the camera. Consequently the audience takes the position of the camera its approach is that of testing. This is not the approach to which cult set may be exposed (Benjamin p13). The audience do not stand back and admire this art form and therefore it can be said that film has altered arts very nature and in this way it promotes the detachment of film from the realm of the beautiful semblance which, so far, had been taken to be the only sphere where art could thrive (Benjamin p15) The mechanical reproduction of film changes many of the original notions on art. One of the most radical ideas contributed by film is the promotion of a revolutionary criticis m of traditional concepts of art (Benjamin p15) In Benjamins mind, the production of film is the ultimate expression of the aestheticsation of politics as it was revolutionary and changed the way in which people interpreted and saw the outside world. The invention of film allowed people to escape for a short time ultimately masking them from reality. Benjamin realized that film had the power to be used for political purposes and that it was well suited to propaganda. Film had the power to attract and hold the attention of the audience in order to shape their beliefs on the dominant political ideology without questioning. Its apparatus is perfectly suited for propaganda in both a positive and negative way. In fascism, film was used to celebrate the cult leader with whom the masses could identify without being urged to denounce social inequality. (Van den Braembussche 2009 p189)Benjamin also discusses another way in which mechanical reproduction affects society by discussing the chang e in the social status gap. Before mechanical reproduction a work of art would be a singular object unique by its individuality. Important works of art would be kept in private dwellings by somebody of high social status and other places such as cathedrals, castles or private museums. These works of art would be inaccessible to anyone in the lower classes who were considered not worthy of viewing them. These private works of art defined the owners status due to the exclusivity of the art and its exhibition value. Due to mechanical reproduction the value of art took a dramatic shift. A piece of art was valued by its uniqueness and its aura. Today, an image is valued not in its uniqueness but rather in its aesthetic, cultural and social worth. With the introduction of mechanical reproduction the social gap between those who viewed art and those who didnt began to close. There was an increased circulation of images and documents that were very rare and used by the higher classes. Once mechanical reproduction became widespread these rare images and diagrams were shared by all classes increasing public education and thus end the status gap. Technology meant that art could be reproduced and consumed by the masses, which Benjamin saw as a democratising feature. Benjamin envisioned a time when art was no longer reserved for the elite, but could be enjoyed, discussed and interpreted by anyone (Gentz p116)Benjamin influenced the work of Theodore Adorno. Adorno also wrote about art as having an aura. Adorno agrees with Benjamin in some regards such as that the aura has declined in this age of mechanical reproduction and that the aura of art is declining in the modern era. However he disagrees with Benjamin in other areas such as the reason for this decline. Adorno criticised Benjamins The work of art in the age of mechanical reproduction in a letter he wrote to Benjamin. He critisised the manner in which Benjamin used his concept of aura. Adorno criticises the way Benja min transfers the concept of magical aura to the autonomous work of art (Van den Braembussche p189 ) Adorno thought that Benjamin made it appear that only autonomous works of art are characterised by aura.
