Anti-modernism

The ethnic revival is thus a complex affair, combining ideological strands of anti-modernism, anti-elitism, cultural conservatism, and vaguely articulated class-based grievances. As Micaela di Leonardo has argued, it also represents a distinctly post-civil rights brand of mobilization, in which, ironically, key expressions of white resentment were couched in language consciously and unconsciously copied from blacks themselves. 4... 

Anti. Modern usage is to describe relative configuration of two stereogenic centers along a chain. The chain is drawn in zigzag form, and if two substituents are on opposite sides of the plane of the paper, they are designated anti. See also "syn", "antiperiplanar", and "anticlinal". 

National Socialism s social-revolutionary agenda was highly contradictory. It simultaneously espoused modern and anti-modern sentiment revolutionary in a political sense, at the level of the transformation of society it was inconsistent. While putting forward an anti-urban, anti-industrial, anti-feminist vision, at the same time it can be argued that Nazi Germany was the apotheosis of the modern, technological state. The only consistent policy was that of extreme racist nationalism, and it is the commitment to racial purity that was the only truly revolutionary element of National Socialism. 

Thehaine stands at the other end of the series from morphine and is a convulsant poison rather than a narcotic (see table, p. 261). Hildebrandt states that it excites the reflexes of cold-blooded animals but in dogs it exerts a narcotic and anti-emetic effect resembling that of morphine rather than that of chloromorphide. The alkaloid is scarcely used in medicine as such, but is a primary material for the preparation of certain of the modern morphine derivatives, such as hydroxydihj dro-codeinone and methyldihydromorphinor.e. 

The fears of car safety and pollution in the 1960s were followed by the sudden oil crisis of the early 1970s. The anti-car lobby viewed the car as a bad symbol of modern life to be attacked rather than adored but in the 1950s there was an optimism and exuberance that pushed the design of automobiles beyond aesthetic limits. The oil crisis produced a movement towards economy and utility, as manufacturers moved to make cars more functional. Style was succeeded by aero aesthetics mainly for fuel efficiency. Manufacturers found themselves working with more regulations and safety related data. 

The opioid analgesics, such os codeine, tramadol and fentanyl may cause drowsiness. Sumatriptan, which is a serotonin agonist, also tends to cause drowsiness. Modern non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as diclofenac, do not cause drowsiness. 

Several condensed systems, especially those combined with pyridine rings, show biological activity, e.g., in the field of crop protection and as anti-virus and anti-cancer compounds. Aza-Wittig reactions in particular should make several novel heterocyclic rings available. The aza-Wittig reaction of iminophosphoranes has to be considered as a major principle in modern synthetic chemistry, as was wisely foreseen by Staudinger and Meyer as early as 1919. 

Millions of people died of infection before the discovery of antibiotics. During the early twentieth century and before, infectious diseases were cured by using potions and plant extracts. Patients were quarantined to keep the infections from spreading. At first, several scientists started their research by keeping records of the infectious diseases. As a result of this work, pioneers like Joseph Lister, Louis Pasteur, and Robert Koch have proven the existence of microbes and the way they are responsible for infections. Their use of disinfectants, antitoxins, vaccination and anti-infectives laid the foundation for modern day therapy of infectious diseases.

There are many ways, other than the use of anti-anxiety drugs, to control the symptoms of anxiety. Although some of these methods may be outside the mainstream of modern medicine, many of them are gaining respect as viable alternatives to the use of drugs. 

Masamune s descriptors syn and anti, appealing because of their conformity with modern customs of writing formulas, are currently widely in use. But, assuming they are used according to definition, they suffer from exactly the same fundamental limitations as c-erythrojc-threo or any other soft descriptor. Unfortunately, Masamune did not exhaust the area of an unambiguous soft description by restricting the simply defined models to C-C(HX)-C(HY)-C rather than C —C(XY) —C(XZ) —C (see Table 10). 

Although the role of the terpenes in the plants that produce them is still a matter of debate, evidence of an anti-herbivore function for many of them is accumulating. Modern DNA technology, gene splicing, and cloning techniques will undoubtedly make it possible to incorporate suitable defensive allelochemlcals into selected crop plants in order to minimise crop devastation by insect herbivores. However, it is necessary to understand the fund-... 

Many of the drugs used in modern anaesthetic practice have an effect on the CT7 and vomiting centre either directly or indirectly, e.g. stimulation of the vestibular apparatus, stimulation of the CTZ by opioid agonist drugs, and an anti-emetic effect of propofol or emetogenic effect of nitrous oxide. Propofol...
