The Chapters present the live instants of brutality of the administrators in power, it narrates the exploitation of the weaker by the strongest administrators that reaches its brutality. I think examining the development of the Other in political and administrative discourse is important, as it may teach a lesson to the modern administrators to stop their brutal behaviour against their Other and give them justice by exercising professional ethics. All the chapters of this book very nicely narrated by the author, how disappoint it is when the administrator and the political leader cross their limit of brutality, because they have the power, they are stronger than the other, and he gives the example how the unethical administrators and political leaders become happy by destroying the other.
The most heart touching incident narrated by the author when Henry Smith was burned in the public to turn in to the heap of ash. In chapter Six, author describes the barbarous act of the whites against the Other and narrates the story of Henery Smith, who, on the more than three thousand people lynched in the US between 1889 and 1918 (p. 69) and changed to a heap of ash in a barbarous way. The most important aspect is administrative and political systems did little to respond to the brutal murders of many of these US citizens (p. 70). In the Depiction of Negro Dilemma, the author narrates how the Administrative and Political Reaction provides a future foundation for questions related to imagery to the wellbeing of African American Males in the present era.
Chapter four is a brutal story from the author, who narrates how inhumane the European administrators were, who were making joy of the destruction of the ancient civilization of the Native American, who are identified by the author as the other, at the same time Farmbry (2009) narrates the inhumanity of the then administrators who enjoyed the death of the people who were under their administration. When in 1979, General Washington ordered General John Sullivan to destroy the Native American settlement and praised the destruction of the whole town and the settlement of hostile Indians in a very short time. The “squaw campaign” gives the exceptional brutality example in chapter 4, when the author says the Justification used by Brodhead. “…..this destruction was the savagery of Native American, a Native American savagery that Broadhead and other members of the American military argued was a result of British influence” (Farmbry, 2009, p.61)
Chapter 7 is more interesting as the foundation of administration reformation and change occurred during this time. Here the author examines the evolution of three approaches to handling the issue of immigration that surfaced during this era: assimilation, restriction and elimination. Each of these process enabled largely by the framing of the images of the immigrant as The Other in American society. Urbanization and the growth of cities witness the local and global incidents affected the immigrants contributed to their status as the Other. These three aspects, dealt with the immigrants as the Other, found themselves resurfacing during later stages of immigrant debates.
Finally, I would like to conclude that the Others should be rescued or save by the administrators and the political leaders, they (The Others) should not be brutally treated or destroyed and rejoice by them (Administrators and political leaders).
