Introduction

The world’s view of the image of a woman is subjected to different directions due to cultural and perceptional variations. The women situation is not yet better even though the world has made a remarkable progress in terms socialization. At different geographical areas of the world, the position of women is always undermined (Johnson & Wilson, 1995). Without a respect to their various economic and political statuses, women always bear the negative consequences of being a ‘woman’. It is evident that no customs or cultural values that favor feminism. Even though some women fall into middle or upper echelons of the society, they ...

Introduction

Organizations, instead of running themselves, require employees with a diverse mix of “abilities, intrinsic gifts, skills, knowledge, experience, intelligence, judgment, attitude, character, drive, and ability to learn and grow; collectively called talent” (Michaels et al., 2001, cited in Beechler & Woodward, 2009, p. 274)” to do the same. However, “sustaining this talent is more challenging than creating it, considering the dynamically complex and perilous global business environment, that most of the companies operate in, thus, necessitating a carefully crafted talent strategy or talent management process, on their part, that precedes every other organizational strategy, 24*7, regardless of the prevalent business conditions” ( ...

Background

The inclusion of learners with special needs is gradually becoming a major concern to various governments (Holt, 2004). With the enactment of the Disability Discrimination act of 1992 and changes in community perceptions towards individuals with disability in Australia, mainstream primary educational institutions have had to prioritize children with disabilities’ inclusion (Forbes, 2007). Holt (2004) gives a social model definition of disability as the disadvantage or restriction of activity resulting from contemporary social organization which takes either little or no account of individuals with physical impairments thereby excluding them from mainstream social activities. Generally, children are considered learning disabled if they ...

Introduction

In more ways than one, the conceptualized constructs demarcating the means by which money exchange takes place within the contemporary world economy are profuse than they might actually appear. The ideology of a contemporary capitalism culture can be split two ways; the thinking of a financializer versus that of a technologist. This paper will take on a triangulation approach at trying to deconstruct the ideals of contemporary capitalism. By cross-referencing different theorizations, the two loudly acclaimed arrangements of abstraction – financialization and technological abstraction – shall be extrapolated and used to establish the actual stand concerning the doctrine of capitalism today.

Human Rights and Obligation

There is a sheer need to balance out rights and obligation in the Australian context. Human beings have the basic urge to demand their own rights, but when it come to provide rights to other, the attitude remains indifferent. Citizens should be made aware of the notion that with every kind of benefit, it comes a sense of responsibility. Human rights are the rights inherent to all people equally irrespective of their caste, creed, race, sex, nationality, religion or any other status. Every human being is entitled to human rights without any discrimination. These rights are indivisible, interdependent and ...

Media Capital: A Critique

The media capital is a new cultural analysis concept proposed by Curtin (2003). In lieu of conventional analysis of media and, for that matter, cultural patterns based on national boundaries, media capital is used. Given how an increasing number of capitals are adopting multi-channel satellite networks for broadcasting glocal TV content, media capital can be employed to better analyze TV content becoming increasingly uncategorizable as of one national character or another. The provided examples of Hollywood, Chicago and Hong Kong (Curtin) represent only an initial step into using media capital as an analytical method for media / cultural analysis. ...

Hume defined the problem of the being and spirit as unsolvable ones. In fact, he denied the objective nature of the concept of causality and substance.

Analysis of James Joyce’s ‘Dubliners’

Quite a few of the short stories in the Dubliners collection of James Joyce are more of his personal memories as well as various sentiments that he holds. The Sisters, The Araby, and Evelin, are all stories which are more of a characterization of his later works. The narrators of all the stories of Joyce tend to disband into the language out of which they actually evolve.
In these stories, rather than having speakers who relate themselves to the readers of the stories, the readers are actually seen being related to the language spoken by the narrators and the ...

Question one

The nature versus nurture concept attracts a series of controversies from various psychologists such as J.S. Mill. Consequently, the concept of nature implies that biological factors and genetic inheritance determine human’s behavior and thoughts. On the other hand, the concept of nurture signifies that external factors and environment of a child such as learning experience would dictate the child’s behavior and way of thought. The nature vs nurture controversy, therefore regards the contribution of the two influences towards human behavior. Mill, for instance, states “. ready to learn and to unlearn either from its own thoughts and the ...

The nature versus nurture debate has been raging for decades and even today, it still elicits mixed reactions from different people. This concept presents the cosmic conflict between ethics and environmental surroundings and influences as the essential aspects that govern and determine a person’s behavioral conduct. One side proposes that at birth, the brain is a clean slate that is open to a great deal of influences, and it is these surrounding influences that govern a person’s behavioral traits. The contrasting side proposes that a person’s behavioral capabilities are encoded in the person’s DNA. This person is limited to a given ...

INTRODUCTION

In broad terms, the concept of sustainable economic growth is an attempt to combine growing concerns about a range of environmental issues with socio-economic issues (Bill Hopwood, Mary Mellor and Geoff O’Brien, 2005). However, the phrase sustainable economic growth or development has many meanings attached to it. Sustainability itself (as a strategic concept originated in the Brundtland report in the year 1987) means a degree of growth which can be retained without creating other substantial economic or environmental problems for future generations. In other words, it is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future ...

A Very Brief History of Franchising

Most of the historians consider that the concept of franchising started in the middle ages, at the time when the feudal aristocrats have started to sell the rights of collecting taxes and operating markets to others on their behalf. This is however representing franchising as a political activity instead of the business activity. Moreover, according to some historians the very first example of the franchising indicating a method of conducting business is traced back in the mid nineteenth century in Germany where the contact was made with the tavern/bar owners in order to sell beer entirely in taverns. But, in the ...

Angela Carter prominently retells the fairy tale story of Little Red Riding Hood, with more vivid and gruesome details as to the horrors of monstrosity. In The Company of Wolves, she first describes in detail the attitudes and machinations of wolves, providing examples using the concept of a werewolf compared to the anthropomorphized wolf in the original tale. Through Carter’s retelling, she envisions a tale of love that more closely resembles what could have happened in reality. Through this, the dichotomy of humanity and monstrosity is blurred when both exhibit traits that are supposedly exclusive of the other.

It seems difficult to analyze democratic transition from the standpoint of international dimension both theoretically and practically because not so much literatures that discuss about what the external environment actually is and how it might contribute to domestic change (Cavatorta 2005).
