The great example of the economic policy in realist context is Russian gas policy. Currently Russia uses its neighbor Ukraine to deliver gas to Europe, however the emergence of new projects for Russian gas exports to Europe provoked the gas conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which began at the turn of 2005-2006. Then Ukraine created obstacles to the free transit of Russian gas to Europe. Particularly acute gas war was at the turn of 2008-2009.

Abstract

The U.S position in respect to prestige, stature, reputation and respect has declined in a dramatic way especially in Latin America. To some extent, the weakening of this relationship can be associated with the economic competition that the United States has been facing from other fast developing and developed countries. The U.S military invasion of countries in Latin America leaves those countries more stable but weakens the relation U.S-Latin America relation. The economic gains that U.S has been obtaining in this region have reduced even with the policies that have established by the Whitehouse Occupants. The U.S needs to re-establish ...

Introduction

One of the most prominent and probably the most transparent categories in the society is gender. Both the males and females play significant roles in the society and they are are defined by the nature of responsibilities and social obligations that each gender undertakes. Aaron Devor, the author of “Becoming Members of Society: Learning the Social Meanings of Gender” and Reihan Salam, the author of “The Death of Macho” have illustrated gender in contrasting ways. One author believes that the time of male dominance has to come to an end while the other one describes gender as an identity ...

Introduction

The aim of this is to conduct a critical synthesis on a particular problem that has plagued the society for quite some time. This is the problem of childhood obesity.

In fact, every kid who exhibits obesity tendencies is often thought of as an excessive eater. Is this assumption justified? Is it true that obesity in kids is primarily due to excessive eating especially that of unhealthy foods commonly referred to as “junk food”? The assumption that the ...

The business environment is a constantly changing environment where new business ventures erupt with new ideologies. These new businesses might either flop or remain relevant to the industry with their new ideologies and economies of scope.

Technological advancements are the most dynamic economic ventures. New businesses and business ideas are constantly developed in the industry to ensure that new inventions are made to satisfy the constant needs of the customers. However, ...

Hoop Dreams: Job Discrimination

Question #1:
When it comes to determining compensation an employee deserves, several factors would have to be taken into consideration. First of all, the need of the company for an employee to perform a particular job must be balanced with the cost factor, the realistic amount the company is able to afford. The skill requirement for the job must be considered, because if the job is a difficult one requiring a lot of education, experience, and so forth, it will be harder to find, attract, and keep employees who have these skills.

Introduction:

It is no main feat to discover that the institutions of the state, the corporation and the family are institutionally masculinist especially in societies where the patriarch is of a dominant nature. This is certainly the case in the film, ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
