Abstract

The historic incident of the U.S attack on the Iraqi Ba’arthist troops headed by Saddam Hussein on 1991 and the annexation of the country in 2003 have generated different debates on the actual intention of the stakeholders. Critics in favor of America’s action opine that these incidents were actually moral projects undertaken by America in order to release the Iraqi civilians from the claustrophobic ambiance prevailing in the country because of the dictatorship of Saddam Hussein. These critics believe that America took over the ethical duty to organize the law and order of Iraq and establish a democratic ...

Introduction People often associate art with beauty such that art forms appeal to the audience because of their aesthetic qualities. Nonetheless, as we explore various theories, concepts, and approaches in art design, we discover that beauty is diverse. As the famous saying goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, which means that the standard and quality of beauty differs based on varying constructs and views of beauty. The conflict and exchange between perfection and imperfection, for instance, illustrates the variability of beauty as a construct in art design (Bailey & Peoples, 2010). Beauty is not merely a creation or ...

The time is March 2004 and the place is Paraguay. It is there, where a group of hunter-gatherers, quite possibly one of the few willingly isolated societies in the planet, came running out of the forest in northern Paraguay, escaping from ranchers' earthmovers.

The new introductory lectures by Sigmund Freud are organized in a way that helps to carry the discussion on psychological analysis from one point to the other. The lectures are systematic, and start off by discussing the aspect of consciousness, which is where a person’s psychological framework starts. To these, he states the contradicting nature of the mental process and unconsciousness and cites that the psychological analysis is going to be based on that. He establishes that consciousness does occur in a mental state but that there are some aspects of the state that depict unconsciousness. The state of consciousness is ...

Introduction

There are fundamental gender differences in organizational management styles, values, leadership strategies and policy preferences, which constitute barriers to women’s ascendancy to the highest levels of leadership. These differences not only condition women’s leadership/managerial styles, but also shape the effectiveness of any such styles, which in turn reflect on their participation in public administration. This paper distils the existent conceptual, theoretical and empirical models on public administration, gender disparities, and underlying factors that prevent women’s upward mobility as well as the subsequent effect on organizational outcomes. Ultimately, however, management and leadership styles in any context continue ...

There have been several studies done on the benefits of adult education (Demidenko, 2007; Grace, 2012; Nordlund, 2013, Reese, 2012; Roehrig, 2010; Jensen, 2007). Grace (2012) provides a comprehensive analysis of the benefits of adult education. This author argues that education has a significant role in societal transformation. In the past, education was valued by a few, a reason why a large percentage of the old generation in modern society is uneducated or partially educated. Supporting this perception, Nordlund (2013) clarifies that education has undergone rapid transformation recently.

“Psycho” is one of the most horrifying movies by Alfred Hitchcock.

Hitchcock introduces the viewers to the film’s characters and invites them to enter their world through consistent close up shots. By doing so, the audience establishes a much closer contact with the character and they seem to observe his/her experience ...

Winston Churchill, in his "We Shall Fight on the Beaches" speech, and Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech still stand as monumental calls to action. Both men use rhetorical strategies that underscore their persuasive abilities, and both men speak authoritatively and convincingly. However, it is King whose gift of rhetorical craft and persuasive ability outdoes Churchill, because of his balanced approach to ethos, logos, and pathos. In both speeches, King and Churchill establish a strong foundation of ethos from the beginning. For example, Churchill is very specific about details from Great Britain's battles in Belgium against advancing Nazi ...

The ideal and real roles of women depicted in the plays The Comedy of Errors by William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare and The Rivals by Richard Brinsley Sheridan Women have been the subject of greater literary interest since times immemorial.

Abrams’ serialized television drama LOST follows the stories of a group of survivors of a violent airplane crash on a deserted island, stuck without any hope of rescue and beholden to the mysterious forces that govern their new home.

When palliative care was first introduced in healthcare, the focus of care delivery was exclusively on cancer patients and their families, but it eventually expanded to other types of terminal illness (Zimmermann et al., 2008). At the moment, the World Health Organization (WHO, 2014) defines palliative care as a multidisciplinary approach to healthcare for patients that are diagnosed with life-threatening conditions. A different definition describes palliative care as an intervention aiming to mitigate suffering instead of curing an illness (Becker, 2008). All definitions agree that the purpose of palliative care is to provide relief from pain, enhance the quality of ...

With every step that the government takes to generate more information regarding innocent citizens, so does our faith in it continue to diminish. This paper will examine ...

Chapter 1 The purpose of this research is to analyze the process creating, SB 4, the legislation on hydraulic fracking as an opportunity to understand how and why the fracking issue gained enough momentum to reach the level of legislative decision.

The factors and actors that worked together to put ‘fracking’ on the agenda of the California Assembly and Senate are interesting because of the wide range of opinions held by the proponents ...

The Mayan apocalyptic predictions of 2012 have long since passed, and civilization has essentially moved on from its portents of doom and gloom. However, with Gregg Braden’s Fractal Time: The Secret of 2012 and a New World Age, elements of self-help spiritualism and pseudo-math are combined to create a work of New Age spiritualism that, while certainly illuminating to the converted, will not successfully convince those looking for philosophies to the universe that require greater rigor. Looking at the book through an air of skepticism, Fractal Time fails to convince, poorly using its own research and loosely connecting information together ...

In today’s information age, more and more details about people’s personal and professional lives are available than ever before.

Standardization connotes ‘uniformity of procedures’ in administering and scoring tests. Standardized tests are for the purpose of comparing scores received by different persons.

Social structure refers to the pattern within the culture organization through which social action takes place. It is also defined as the arrangement of roles, organizations, institutions, and cultural symbols that are stable over time, often unnoticed and are changing more invisibly.

Many men in the society usually strive to achieve recognition of their manhood whilst some even do the unthinkable in a bid to attain manhood. Consequently, some people think that one can only achieve manhood through being violent, controlling, inconsiderate, and unkind. Nevertheless, some men are blinded by their pride and hatred and thus fail to realize that real manhood can also be achieved through the greatest acts of humility and humanity. In trying to understand this concept, Theodore Roethke’s poem “my papa’s waltz” and Faulkner’s “Barn Burning” will be used in this paper. Roethke’s “my ...

Initial Thought: The word ‘Control’ has a number of connotations, and when it comes to business circles, ‘control’ signifies authority. A police force will use whatever is necessary to ‘control’ unruly crowds, and use of force could be one of them. An introduction to controls would suggest power and authority, because control is something that keeps things under check. In business the term has significance with regard to employee relationships, and when an organization is able to control a number of people in an organization, it would mean that the management has power to maintain authority over decision-making, which in managerial ...
