However, over the years, dancing in the Hip Hop culture gradually lost its significance as it became “cultural fad” and was replaced with a “take away product of hip hop,” which is the CD (Gorney 2). In recent years, hip hop dance has enjoyed a “huge resurgence” (Gorney 2). This resurgence of cultural expression has manifested itself in multiple “forms” (Gorney 2). However, it is this form of cultural expression is in danger of being “ ...

“Budgetary control is part of overall organisation control and is concerned primarily with the control of performance. The use of budgetary control in performance management has of late taken on greater importance especially as a more integrative control mechanism for the organisation”. Critically evaluate this claim, supporting your discussion with both theoretical arguments and practical examples.

Introduction

The primary objective of budgetary control is to plan and control an organization’s activities in the short-term as opposed to the long-term corporate and strategic planning with broad objectives. While the short-term plan may be for the objectives for the subsequent accounting year, ...

The Native American history and culture as we know it is rich and vibrant. Often mistaken for savages who had nothing better to do than scalp intruders and run naked through the woods, Native Americans were more civilized than first documented .
