Background

The Multifibre Agreement was developed in 1974 and governed the world’s textile sector until 2004 when it was phased-out. The accord inflicted quotas on the amount developing countries could export to the developed world. It was meant to help the developed countries adjust to existing absolute advantage that the developing countries have in the textile industry. The existence of the agreement allowed the Bangladesh textile industry to flourish in the 20th century and early 21st century. It was highly expected that the phase-out of the MFA would greatly affect Bangladesh negatively as the country was highly dependent on ...

The establishment of the modern national education system in Malaysia is one of the major effects of the post-colonial development within the nation (Zohar, 2004).

After the colonial period in the 1950s, the education system reform was implemented on the nation and segregated linguistic ethnic streams which comprise their population. The period of the end of the colonial rule in Malaysia also marks the ...

YOURNAMEHERE

YOURSCHOOLHERE C13 Economics Assignment 08 Part 1 Monopolies develop in several ways (Vandewetering, n.d.). There are “natural” monopolies that emerge from the scales of some businesses. Electric generation utilities, for example, require multi-million dollar investments in the plant and more millions to build the distribution infrastructure. At these levels of entry costs, virtually no competition can develop. Some monopolies develop around ownership of a scarce resource. The DeBeers company, for example, controls a large percentage of the world’s supply of diamonds. The third form of monopoly is the result of government action. For example, patent and copyright protection ...

Question 1: Race, Racialization and the Law

Asian Americans were always viewed in the context of “Asian immigrants”. This is for several reasons. First of all, the history of the United States rising as a prosperous nation happened from the east coast. And for various reasons, the first colonies created in the 1600s were made up almost exclusively of migrants from the British Isles. However, as time went on, the colonies expanded ...

Feminism and women empowerment are growing across oceans at different levels. Today, in the 21st century, the issue of violence against women, inequities between men and women, among many other injustices are becoming a popular advocacy not only in the West but also in the developing countries. Women and feminist movements are even gaining its grounds in the grassroots. However, despite this development especially today in the 21st century, there are still countries that are lagging behind. Middle Eastern countries are now one of the hot spots regarding the regression of women empowerment. The dominion of patriarchy is still ...

Carbon credit refers to a permit allowing a company or state to emit a ton of carbon dioxide awarded to firms that have decreased the emission of greenhouse gasses below their quota. It follows that a country that produces carbon beyond its quota needs to purchase carbon credits from the energy-efficient ones (those producing less) in what economists call “cap-and-trade.” Although most people believe that the cap-and-trade on carbon emission works, I think this is a false assumption. Some economists opine that funds raised from trading on carbon credits would help them come up with alternative fuels reducing the ...

One of the problems that Vietnam faced entering its third Five-Year Plan (1981-1985) had to do with producing enough food to feed the nation (Porter). This is why the Vietnamese Communist Party made solving food production problems a major priority at its 1982 meeting. However, the party at the time reaffirmed its commitment to keeping industry and agriculture combined as far as efforts went, because both were considered foundational to growth of the other, and Vietnam remained committed to developing an economy based on industry (Tan). Interestingly, the whole idea of agricultural development serving as an element of socialist ...

The campaign dubbed “healthier you” (HY) seeks to bring together various stakeholders from the Northeastern University to fight unhealthy eating and especially obesity. The realization that the university’s dining halls do not offer the students healthy food choices informs the campaign. The dining halls are filled with junk foods which are likely to make the students obese. The root of the problem of unhealthy eating in the university can be traced back to the policies that the university applies when renting out university space. Over the years, the policies look into whether an individual or an organization renting ...

Japan and Tariff-Free U.S. Rice In 2015, Japan proposed a set of 70,000-ton import quota for tariff-free U.S. rice. This quota is substantially lower than what the United States had demanded. The United States quota was 175,000 tons. Rice is one of the key issues remaining between Tokyo and Washington. Currently, Japan imports 770,000 tons of tariff-free rice on year. This is approximately 7 percent of the total amount of rice consumed. Of that volume, only 100,000 tons of rice is bought for actual consumption. The rest of the rice is designated for its use ...

Question 1: does distributed file systems eliminate need for backup

Distributed file systems are implemented over several computer servers that are located in different places enabling sharing of data across the various computer networks. The file system allows implementation of replication and access transparencies. However, the distribution process does not eliminate the need for data backup. Data backup is necessary because in distributed file systems data being shared may exist only in one computer and if lost, all other computers will not be able to access the same data (Girone, 2015). Distributed file system share data when needed by another computer, however, this does not provide for data redundancy. ...

Statement of Purpose and Academic Motivation

Intercultural management practices and competence has been poorly explored by the academic community from the perspective of multicultural Finnish professional life (Weber, Festing & Dowling, 2013).

It has to be reckoned that there has been an ongoing debate that essentially focuses on the position of the two genders in workplace.

One can very well be reminiscent of the struggle of the women of the world society for gaining right to suffrage- something that testifies to the discriminatory standards of the society ...

A quota is a trade restriction imposed by the government that limits the amount or value of goods imported or exported into a country (Carbaugh, 2010, p. 151). An import quota affects the consumers, producers and the national welfare. Firstly, a quota reduces the supply of a commodity in the importing country’s domestic market. The reduction in supply causes an increase in market price thus leading to a decline in consumer surplus (Carbaugh, 2010, p. 151). However, the increase in market price benefits both foreign and domestic traders hence producer surplus increases (Carbaugh, 2010, p. 151). However, the ...

The foreign contractors in the country number 110,000 individuals. The critical role played by the foreign contractors is in supporting various military operations. Lack of adequate contract management can prevent troops from receiving support and can also lead to wasteful spending (Schwartz 2009, p. 3). The ...

The point that fascinated me the most is, the use of scales is to present information numerically to facilitate the interpretation of data either as analysis, or in presenting the findings of research. The purpose is though apparently very simple but the real part depends on the type of scale chosen to represent it. Nominal, ordinal, interval and the ration, these four types of scales are the real storyteller that how the data will be selected and interpreted. All these kinds of scales are different in strength, weakness, and ...

This is because while businesses like Comerci, Walmart’s main competitor, chose to make a profit out of the differences the lower tariffs made, Walmart ...
