Introduction The period of 1965 to 1970 recorded significant historical marks emergent from Chicano Movement. Very notably was the struggle by young people to attain communal identity, acquire unique power. The desire for youths to be engaged explorations formed fundamental roots for the beginning of youth Chicano-radicalism in the US. Very prominent in the lead to the movement was Carlos Munoz, who lead the movement in the Nineteen Sixties and gave the movement a broad political image that sank quickly into the lifestyle of Mexicans through to their children in the United States. Restructured throughout the United State’s history, the quest for youth to have a place in power and public identity has subsumed America’s political protest. This contributed very significantly to the traditional growth and popularity of the Chicano Movement. This paper will review elaborately three different newspaper issues on the topic of the Chicano Movement (1965-1970) with a particular interest in imagery, constructability, identity, and idealism as presented by the paper. History of the Chicano Movement Latin America’s Political and civil rights activism in America has a notable history traceable to the 1848 Northern-Mexico-annexation. Shortly after the time, Americans of Mexican descent adopted the use of labor unions, defense organizations, and courts to fight racism of all forms which Jim Crow had contended with. Towards the end of the 1960s, there sprang a new form of battle racism as young activists conducted themselves into a Chicana and Chicano file absorbing energy from Chavez Caesar. During the time, the movement waxed with heat, very strongly and consequently created new forms of the struggle such as the movement that emerged from the integration of farmworkers. The impact of the movement on Washington was huge. The population of farmworkers had swollen resultant of the ‘bracero’ influx at the time of the Second World War. Soon, the movement had split into Yakima Valley and Seattle. A clear reflection of the split geographically was a brace of campaigns and support which the groups enjoyed. Major groups were Brown Berets, UMAS, MWChA, KDNA, and several others. The Chicano Youth Movement in the Northwest Black American students constituted themselves into a union (BSU) at the University of Washington to effect military activities that promoted Chicano greatly on campus. Elements of the movement, on the 20th day of May in 1968 betrothed the office of Charles Odegaard, the president of
The architecture of the eighteenth century is extremely complex and diverse. Moreover, the architecture of this century has given the world several significant styles and magnificent works of art. Thus, in the second half of the eighteenth century, the neoclassical style was widely popular in Europe (Gontar, 2003). The effects of the Renaissance prompted a renewed interest in concepts such as antiquity, harmony, and simplicity. In this context, it becomes important to note the traditional architectural works of this style. The Church of Saint-Geneviève is a prime example of an eighteenth-century neoclassical building. In this style, its simplicity and a certain flatness are important. Thus, the Church of Saint-Geneviève and all the other works of this time are extremely simple. The projections, bas-reliefs, and forms are made more flatly than in the other styles of this century. If neoclassicism in its works refers to the origins of ancient art, Romanticism reinterprets it. Romanticism in architecture meant the reinterpretation of medieval and ancient styles and their expression in new forms (Galitz, 2003). However, initially romanticism arose within the framework of the literature. Only closer to the 19th century, Romanticism began to manifest itself in architecture, continuing to refer to romantic poems and novels (Harris et al., 2015). In this vein, it becomes important to note the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, England, created by John Nash (Partington, 2015). It is this work of architecture that expresses the whole meaning of the Romanticism of England of that era. Finally, the Brighton Pavilion has found its inspiration in the literary works of such writers as Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Beckford, and many others. Finally, the Rococo style is some late variation of the Borocco and is similar in some details to it. The Rococo architectural style appeared in Europe in the eighteenth century, beginning in France during the regency of Philip of Orleans. This style contradicted the coldness and simplicity of neoclassicism. Moreover, Rococo tries to combine playfulness, lightness, and elegance in architecture. Finally, for Rococo, correctness and clarity of forms are unprincipled, as well as expediency and symmetry. Thus, despite the fact that Rococo is considered to be a continuation of Borocco, it still managed to b
The development of technology and the quickening pace of globalization impose significant challenges on the sphere of healthcare, forcing it to change. These processes do not encourage or enable their urge and require modern medicine and care deliverers to adopt new practices that suit current circumstances. The adoption of new technology, such as electronic health records, changes the daily operation inevitably as reported in a qualitative study on nursing professionals (Wu et al., 2017). The process of change requires careful management because change may otherwise become chaotic. Violation of the established routine often causes time losses and occasionally misconducts which in the sphere of healthcare may cost lives and direly affect patient’s health. The latter is one of the main reasons for the change in the health sphere as the invention of new practices, protocols, and technologies is aimed at delivering better quality care. A need for change does not necessarily mean that established practices work poorly, but the current level of scientific and technological development may come up with something that performs better and allows for saving more lives. This consideration is the key reason why seeking change and adapting to it is critical in health care. It appears that the situation when no person on earth needs medical help is a utopia that brings forward the idea of increasing the capacity of hospitals and care workers to provide as many high-quality services to the population as possible. In light of this, the significance of change can be explained through the universal need for care and the imperative to save as effectively as one could manage. The transitional process from the status quo to the assimilation of a new practice or technology often needs a clear vision that could be transferred to both patients and health care providers (Kueny, Shever, Mackin, & Titler, 2015). Given that, the role of leadership increases its pertinence as communication of a proper motivation to co-workers and subordinates increases the chances of success. In addition to that, if care deliverers assist the management in surviving the transition it invokes fewer complications and, consequently, fewer lives lost and health issues generated. The maturation of a professional with age may also come with increased change resistance as he or she may be accustomed to a certain manner of practice. Change resistance in such workers may undermine the transition or at least decelerate its onset, which again underlines the critical nature of leadership in facilitating change. Conversely, as changes happen more rapidly, there arises a standing need for effective leadership and specialists who can assist organizations in establishing new stan
Introduction This essay exhaustively describes the movie ‘Boomerang’ in an analyzed way so that it can help the reader comprehend the concept that was laid in the film. It also elaborates on the acts that were being emphasized in the different scenes by discussing the moral dilemma that was presented to the District Attorney Harvey. Also, the essay portrays the dilemma from a Humean perspective and a Kantian perspective. As a result, this will elaborate on the idea that was being depicted in the film in a more elucidated approach. Humean perspective The movie shows the moral dilemma that is presented by Marcus (a successful advertising executive), he woos and pursues women. After a company merger, he finds out that his new boss treats him the same way he treats othe
Toyota and the Australian market Like other major Players in the Australian automotive industry, Toyota Motor Corporation Australia Limited is foreign-owned. It is a subsidiary wholly owned by the Japanese Toyota Motor Corporation. The firm is headquartered in Alton, Victoria, while the sales and marketing operations are based in Sydney (Toyota Motor Corporation Australia Limited, 2008). In general, the company is a global leader in the automotive manufacture, assembly as well as distribution. The backbone of the company’s good performance is a very effective management style that it uses. There are numerous other outstanding factors that have contributed to the achievement of the leading position including research and development activities. Differentiation strategy supported by innovation has enabled the company to produce different varieties of vehicles ranging from trucks to cars exhibiting technological savvy of a high degree. The market structure Toyota operates in cannot be definitely described. For some, it might appear as a monopoly. The reason is that the firm is a dominant player in both the local market and international market. Indeed, the differentiation strategy embraced has made it enjoy nearly a monopolistic presence in some developed nations as well as developing nations. Then again, the market structure might appear as an oligopoly to some people. The reason is that there are other major players like Ford Motors, General Motors and Volkswagen who are peer competitors. Specifically, the Australia market has three major competitors which include GM Holden Limited, Ford Motor Company of Australia Limited and Toyota Motor Corporation Australia Limited (Federal Chamber of Automotive Industry, 2008). There are also other foreign-owned and local companies, although their significance is low when compared to the three. The fact is that each of these competitors is in the race to increase the market share at both local and international levels. One of the marketing areas they are focusing on is the digital marketing or e-marketing which has proved to be most effective as noted by Kasavana (2001). Toyota is therefore keen to observe what its competitors are doing and ensuring that it reacts to their activities in a manner that promise its market leadership. Toyota’s current marketing strategies Madhani (2012) is of the opinion that an effective marketing strategy originates from three elements: segmentation, targeting and positioning. In fact, these three elements define the marketing strategy as either direct or indirect in nature. Indirect marketing is an effort by all departments starting from R&D, manufacturing, sales and marketing among other departments to drive sales. Direct marketing is an effort of the sales and marketing department whereby the major focus is on increasing customer awareness. It can be argued that Toyota uses both direct and indirect ma
Introduction The change taking place in the world in terms of business processes makes firms transform towards universal mindset. This is because of the increase in the need for worldwide business. The demands caused by global operations, global customers, global resources, global products, and global cooperation. Transnational strategy demands for the reliance of contemporary technologies so as to make a firm integrate their international commerce activities hence, the strategy focuses on standalone and decentralisation systems (Gorindarajan & Gupta 2003, p. 123). Thus, a firm changing their strategy from a global to a transitional strategy confronted with some significant challenges. The paper identifies and explains some of the important challenges that a firm may confront when implanting the change from global to transnational strategy. In addition, the essay discusses ways in which the firm may overcome the challenges that arise during the change. Change from global to a transnational strategy Global strategy is regionally decentralised as the strategy geared towards an assortment of transnational and international strategy. The strategy incorporates the use of worldwide standards and common systems. Therefore, change to transnational strategy from global strategy confronted with challenges. Transnational strategy offers enterprises with a chance to connected through Internet and allocate the business systems and worldwide date to be common and integrated. The strategy adopts centralisation and decentralisation systems in promoting specialisation and interdependence of units. Transnational strategy standards and policies are similar in most nations (Marulanda 2010). The advantage of transnational strategy is that it empowers an overseas enterprise unit to transform to a powerhouse of an expert modernisation. Additionally, strong points of international and multi-domestic approaches are pooled and shortcomings are reduced in international approaches. Challenges in implementing the change Achieving international approach is difficult as the approach puts contradictory obligations on companies to amalgamate actions in all their divisions as
The Event, Key Dates, and Description Key Individuals Involved Martin Luther King Jr. was the leader of the civil rights movement in the United States. He led the fight for civil rights by example, speaking to the public and organizing massive peaceful protests. Despite the arrest and imprisonment of King Jr.’s direct killer, James Earl Ray, the potential sponsors of the murder have never been identified. It is logical to assume that these were people who had power and who were against the changes that the victory of the civil rights movement promised. Public Opinion of the Event Of the 10% of Minnesota survey participants who felt guilty or responsible, 68% said that whites or they themselves did not do enough to address racial issues and improve conditions for the Negroes (“Assassination Nation,” 2018). Another 27% believed that all whites were responsible for the situation because of the prejudice and acts of racial discrimination prevailing in society. Survey participants who did not consider themselves involved, guilty or responsible for King’s death stated that “no involvement with assassination or with Negro problem is general” (28%), “I am not prejudiced against Negroes, have supported civil rights” (23 %), and “King’s (Negroes’) own fault was just stirring up trouble” (11%) (“Assassination Nation,” 2018, par. 5). Effects of the Event The assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. dealt a blow to the ideology of nonviolence and love that underpinned King’s philosophy and which he sought to make basic ideas for the civil rights movement. Congress for Mass Equality Director Floyd McKissick made the famous speech on the night after King’s assassination that “racial equality is a dead philosophy because it was killed by white racists” (Love, 2021, par. 7). Some civil rights advocates such as Stokely Carmichael suggested that the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr., who encouraged the movement for nonviolent marches and tried to teach the people to show love and compassion, made a big mistake. According to Carmichael, in this way, the killers declared war on the members of the movement, among whom there were no others like Martin Luther King Jr.
Differences between liquidated corporations dissolved corporations Although many people do not recognize the difference between corporate liquidation and dissolution, the truth of the matter is that there is a fine line between the definitions of the two. The difference between the two emanates from their definitions in relation to tax. Under business law, liquidation is a process through which a company (or a fraction of the company) stops its normal operations and assets transferred to shareholders. Consequently, shareholders will then share all assets and properties belonging to the company according to number of individual shares. Very many factors may force the company or a fraction of a company to undergo liquidation. Chief among these factors is when the country’s body charged with collecting and safeguarding custom duties resolves the final computation and discovers massive hitches in the company’s entry. The body will then force the company to undergo liquidation to prevent it from collapsing. There are two types of liquidation: creditor’s liquidation (or compulsory liquidation) and shareholder’s liquidation (sometimes called voluntary liquidation). Each of this occurs on dissimilar grounds (Guardino, 1990, p. 1-2). On the other hand, corporate dissolution is the final stage of terminating a corporation. Just like liquidation, dissolution is either compulsory or voluntary. For instance, the corporation might agree to dissolve voluntarily through a resolution, where they will redistribute assets, reimburse any existing debts, and finally send the dissolution credentials to the Secretary of State. On the other hand, dissolution can be compulsory following a state suspension imposed when the corporation fails to pay its taxes or when the state exercises its jurisdiction to control certain factors. When a company decided to halt its normal business operations, it automatically undergoes a flurry of legal processes. The legal process in corporate liquidation is much more stringent as compared to corporate dissolution. According to tax code 334 (IRC 334), the corporate will redistribute assets under liquidation to the shareholders or owners, of course, by meeting statutory requirements. Under liquidation, the corporation targets cash from the sale of its assets and inventory. The corporation will use the cash realized from these sales to payout debts and other commitments as required by the law or court (Guardino, 1990, p.3-4). On the other hand, corporate dissolution is the process of closing a legal entity, that is, to shut down a business legitimately. According to tax code IRC 346, the corporation that intends to dissolve will then apply for federal o
Firstly, it is important to discuss the physical and psychological implications involved with rape. For the victim, it can be a nightmare to suffer hopelessly when someone is having forcible sex with her ‘body’ against her will. Apart from physical assault, it may sometimes take a lifetime to recover from consequent psychological trauma. The condition worsens in the absence of any contraception, as it may result in the victim getting pregnant. This issue is a little complex with different interpretations as per the perceptions of people from various cultures. In some cultures, it is strongly objected to having pregnancy without a socially acceptable partner. So, as rape breaches this principle and can make a woman pregnant in an unacceptable way, it is highly condemned. Keeping it aside, in view of the consequences for the victim, forcing a woman towards a possible undesirable pregnancy should be condemned. In the case of failed contraception, it is important to know whether the woman had sex with her interest or not. When she is willingly engaged in intercourse, it becomes her own responsibility to take necessary contraceptive measures. On the other hand, even though a person may be aware of the consequences of her deeds like long walks in midnights, it should not mean that she is ready for sex. Here, the lack of security for a specific gender should be considered more than her act. Leaving aside the abortion regulations in individual countries, the chance of abortion should be given when pregnancy results from rape. Furthermore, sex has been considered as an enjoyable holy act of creating offspring and to be done between partners. Though this concept doesn’t fit well in the current world and to this topic, it has been the main reason behind strong, sometimes controversial, opinions on rape in every culture. However, this concept has both positive and negative aspects. According to a more civilized and strongly acceptable opinion, even sex with a legal partner is called rape when it is done forcefully. In this sense, importance goes to the protection of a person’s interests and rights. It does implicate that, irrespective of the cultural interpretations about rape, forceful sex is by no means acceptable as it damages the self-respect and integrity of a person with resultant physical and psychological pain. Also, it may not always be possible to talk about rape based on cultural values only. For, there have been inevitable conflicts between standard cultures and individual lifestyles almost all over the world. One must consider culture in a broader aspect in view of the contemporary world, without just sticking to outdated values. The issue of moral values somehow resolves this conflict as it considers only those values of the culture that guarantee rights and respect for individuals, irrespective of gender. On moral grounds, any damage to self-integrity should be
Introduction Nuclear family beliefs and practices affect every aspect of a person’s life. When children grow up, personal relationships between family members determine if they will carry and develop these beliefs in their newly organized nuclear family. The effectiveness of nursing interventions depends on the understanding of these matters and the ability to adapt to non-standard family organization. The present paper examines the functional and communicational patterns inside a family with non-traditional structure and beliefs. Description of Nuclear Family The present assessment is focused on a nuclear family of a mother, a father, a daughter, and a foster son. The mother of the family, Helen, is 29 years old, and she has a bachelor’s degree in computer science. The father, Peter, is 31 years of age with a master’s degree in linguistics. He has a stable job and can fully satisfy the financial needs of the family. Katie is a one-year-old daughter with no reported abnormalities in development. Steward is a twelve-year-old boy studying in a middle school. He is a son of Helen’s deceased sister, Catherine, living as a foster child with the family for the past three years. According to developmental theory, on the one hand, the family is at stage two, a childbearing family (Friedman, Bowden, & Jones, 2003). On the other hand, the family is on stage four, as a family with a school-aged foster child. Sociocultural Data The family is all white with no recorded relatives being of racial minorities. All the members of the nuclear family follow Hindu traditions in values, celebrations, dietary habits, and healthcare beliefs. Even though not all the extended family welcome Vedic culture, there are little confrontations on a cultural or religious basis. As for the social status, the family belongs to the middle class considering the level of income. Environment The environment is friendly with no abnormalities in physical settings. The family lives in a small town in a separate three-bedroom house. Even though the house is not very large, it is comfortable and provides enough space for everyone’s privacy to be respected. The neighborhood is quiet in a cedar grove with a little park near the house. The community mostly consists of older adults, as housing in the area is comparatively cheap. In short, the outside environment of the family is peaceful with no stress coming from living conditions. Communication The communication level inside the family is optimal, as everyone is encouraged to express their feelings and judgments freely. The opinions of all the family members are valued, and the parents use e
