For instance, as Jean Tirole who awarded the Nobel Prize in economic, explained the French labour ...

Throughout history, there have been many great thinkers. They have sprawled among many disciplines, from philosophy to physics. Nevertheless, some of these have made important contributions to many fields at the same time. One of these cases is that of Blaise Pascal, who was deeply influential in mathematics, philosophy and theology. In a sense, one could say that these three disciplines were intertwined in his work. By studying the loftier aspects of the human experience, Pascal was able to bring together probability theory and his worries about the existence of God.

Throughout the centuries, one of the greatest questions humankind has had is how to achieve happiness.

Similarly, St. Aquinas thought that one should be in accordance with God, and that only through loving Him would one truly be happy, yet only after death. Even ...

This essay describes the persona of David Foster Wallace’s authorial persona as evidenced in his essays and his social life and interactions with ...

Introduction

Predominantly, economic well-being has great connections with social well-being (Easterlin, 2001). As such, most of the public policies that are intended to improve the social welfare are usually directed towards variables that indicate economic welfare. However, not all aspects of social well-being have direct linkage with economic wellness. Thus, economic progress in a country does not entirely translate to social happiness among citizens since some economic growth policies involve trade-offs between social risk and income growth (Bok, 2009). In essence, economic well-being entails a measure of economic wellness of citizens in a country ...

“Paganism” is an extremely unclear term that appeared in church circles to refer to the pre-Christian era where people had diverse religious worldviews.

The two requirements to act with integrity, both by Saint Leo University and by the Institute of Management Accountants (IMA), are related in the sense that both demand an ethical behavior from accountants.

As such, IMA's approach may be considered less flexible, as it will hardly list every possible unethical conduct. Integrity has been an important trait in the accounting profession since its roots as a bookkeeping ...

In this respect, the hero pursues self-interest and more than often sacrifices it for the benefit of others. It follows that the ...
