Ch. 8:

Greece is more of a corporatist than a pluralist state because there is a very close relationship between trade union groups and social democratic parties. In fact, the country has very high levels of political realignments in the political marketplace. However, the country has a very narrow level of tripartite bargaining because the country is yet to establish a wage package. The trade unions in Greece are very weak while employer federations are very strong. It is no wonder that the country is yet to establish a minimum wage for employees. New Social Movements have led to the formation Continue reading...

The Middle East has historically been viewed as a region of underdevelopment in almost all areas, particularly in education, recreation and real estate and infrastructure. Further, not only development in Middle East has been viewed as an anomaly in a region long known for conflict and destruction almost exclusively but also forunsustainability of development efforts particularly in areas requiring longer and insightful strategies such as education, recreation andreal estate and infrastructure. This view has recently, however, shifted given unprecedented changes inpublic policies for areas in question. This paper aims, hence, to explore recent developments in education, recreation and real Continue reading...

- Food miles and 100-mile diet
A 100-mile diet refers to a diet that consists of foods raised and grown within 100 miles of a dinner table (Tancock). Usually, food travels some 1,500 miles before reaching the dinner table in North America (Tancock). The traveling miles are called “food miles” and affect the environment, quality of food and farming practices. Food miles increase carbon emissions through the numerous planes, boats, and trucks involved in the transport of food materials. In addition, food miles promote unsafe agricultural practices because the consumers are unlikely to visit the farms Continue reading...

WHY TO EXPLORE ROMANI PEOPLE BEHAVIOR PATTERNS?
For every society or nation, providing equal social and economic opportunities for every individual in the society is one of the most important goals. However, we observe that some groups in the society are disadvantaged in many countries, and especially in the developing countries.

However, the Romani People’s characteristics are different from the other groups. They lived in many countries in Europe and Continue reading...

Dear Sir,
The following report highlights the reasons why most of the talented Egyptians soccer players fail to pursue a soccer career abroad despite being physically fit and skillful. A few past players who have had a chance to play in the Europe soccer league have been too controversial, to say the least, most of them have been too unprofessional and have shown no commitment to play by the rules.
The report will be critical in helping individuals understand the need to utilize opportunities, which most footballers are entitled Continue reading...

- Teamwork may be explained as an activity which is performed in combination with two or more individuals in order to attain effective and efficient outcomes from the performed action. A vital element for effective performance of teams is communication (Lantz, 2011).
Intra team conflict is one of the communication barriers in which every team member tries to promote their own agendas and objectives resulting in a lack of synchronization among the team members. In this the conflict results as a result of difference in opinion which may lead to the breakdown of a team (Gamero, Gonzalez-Roma & Peiro, 2008). Continue reading...

Introduction
Throughout World War II, the Nazis carried out some of the most unthinkable and horrific experiments upon human beings, often citing science as a valid reason for their actions. As accounts of these experiments began to leak out prior to and throughout the Nuremberg Trials, they had a profound effect upon people’s comprehension of man’s insatiable curiosity and his inclination towards evil. Since there is hardly any precedent or ensuing studies conducted to support the results from these experiments, it has long been conjectured as to whether their findings should be admissible in modern publications or Continue reading...

Abstract

European Gypsy moths cause severe damage to trees and shrubbery by reducing the ability of the plants to carry out photosynthesis. The moths damage the plants causing the plants to die and/or to become vulnerable to infections. Plants are defoliated forcing the plants to grow new leaves disrupting the natural growing process of the plants. The environmental damage the moths cause results in loss of wooded areas, drought and high economic costs. The carbon cycle is disrupted due to the loss of trees. Gypsy moths are regarded as the worst insect pests in the United States. The infestation started Continue reading...

. Asian gypsy moth was first recognized in North America around the port of Vancouver in British Columbia Canada in 1991. The Asian gypsy moth was introduced later for the first time to Oregon and Washington in the year 1991. They were brought about by ships from Russia infested with Asian gypsy moth eggs and were blown by the offshore wind to the shore line. Scientists believe that the docked ships with those eggs blown to the shore hatched into larvae. However, human activities like spraying to control insects like mosquitoes, ensured that the moth was eradicated. Trapping was another Continue reading...

Introduction

Marquez does not embrace the clear-cut way of narration. There is a rough sketch of happenings between the time of founding the town, time of collapse; the Buendia’s clan genesis and its destructions. Marquez keeps on moving forth and backward and does not come clear on time. He thus creates a sense of informality and mythic feeling of a history. Though in the very first episode he talks of the Macondo gypsies who bore the technological innovations that were miraculous to the people of this isolated village, it is still had to believe it for in the first Continue reading...

Nowadays, we see that many people are more inclined to accept some ideas as true and anyone opposing to this idea is considered an outsider person in the society, even if this person is right about his opposition. Generalizing this idea give us that an idea might wrong, however, if it is anonymous, it will be treated as true in society. Thomas tries to give an explanation for this by stating that “ the relevant audience might be unwilling to draw the conclusions which emerge in the course of the inquiry: either because they are in the grip of some Continue reading...

Introduction:

Film making in Italy is an intriguing subject since it has brought about change and progress in a country which was otherwise extremely backward. The rise of fascism in the pre-war decades saw a different type of cinema school emerge and some great propaganda films were produced, mostly those which glorified Mussolini and the fascist dictatorship. However Italy was actually one of the first film making countries to start an avant garde movement which flourished during the years of the First World War. Unfortunately several films from this period have been lost although there has been a substantial critical Continue reading...

The memorial for the ‘murdered Jews of Europe’ located in Berlin cost 25 million euros at its inaugural during the year 2005. Well-researched and documented history points three groups that endured suffering during the pre-Nazi, Hitler’s reign, and post Nazi regimes in Germany and Europe at large. These groups are the Jews, the Roma/Sinti, and the Gay and Lesbians. Unfortunately, more attention is directed towards the persecution of Jews. For instance, the two recently erected monuments in Berlin for the Roma/Sinti and the gays and lesbians persecuted during the Nazi reign were put up on a modest scale. Continue reading...

In the novel Cannery Row and the play Glengarry Glen Ross, authors John Steinbeck and David Mamet present characters whose approach to existence appears quite dissimilar on the surface. Mack and the boys from Cannery Row place little value on extravagant material possessions. They possess no ambition other than to have very basic shelter and food; they do not compete with each other or town residents to accumulate goods or social status. The real estate salespeople in Glengarry Glen Ross, on the other hand, thrive on workplace competition to acquire possessions that will signify their success. If one accepts Continue reading...

The Second World War of 1939-1945 is noted by historians as the war that killed many civilians from each side. The war that have started with the German invasion of Poland kick-started German leader Adolf Hitler’s rise to power, as well as his vision in ridding the Jews in massive concentration camps and executions – the Final Solution or popularly known as the Holocaust.

The current exhibition at the Norton Simon Museum is entitled “Proof: The Rise of Printmaking in Southern California.” The works of art on display present the efforts of artists who endeavored to create a renaissance in the field of lithography and ascertain different methods of printmaking as equally valuable forms of art, especially during the post-war era of the avant-garde.
The first thing that comes to mind on viewing these works of art is all the vibrant colors that seem to jump from the canvas and grab hold of its admirers. My favorites include Sam Francis’ “An 8 set – Continue reading...
