The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte was written by Karl Marx. This book is a logical continuation of his previous works that examined the history of the 1848 Revolution in France. The chronotope of the writing reveals the periodization of the history of this event, and the author considers the political occurrences that led to the takeover (Sperber 101). Notably, the issues raised in this reading are of an existential nature. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the main idea of the book by Karl Marx as well as the argumentation provided by the writer in proving his claims. Main Argument In general, the book is devoted to explaining the origin of the state turnover in France as well as its causes. However, the main idea of the work could be concluded to an understanding that the historical person standing at the center of this event was not distinguished by any outstanding opportunities and did not possess such influence to provoke the unfolding of events of such a historical scale (Broers 71). In particular, the author of the book emphasized that the capabilities of Bonaparte did not coincide with the actions that he had been able to perform in 1851. In this discrepancy, there were certain historical contradictions, which Marx tried to explicate. Claims Marx justified his position regarding the contradictory nature of Bonaparte’s role in initiating the revolution by considering the main aspects of this event. He argued that the revolution was the result of an aggravation of class antagonisms (Marx 63). Also, the intensification of the counter-revolutionary nature of the bourgeoisie was of great importance in the emergence of this process. The class renounced the form of their domination because of the fear they had in relation to the proletariat. In order to preserve their exploitative capabilities, the bourgeoisie was ready to give up their power to Bonaparte. Marx also described the course of Bonaparte’s political action in order to explain that he supported the counterrevolutionary elements solely. For instance, the writer argued that the populist alliance encouraged by Bonaparte was distinguished by such traits as maneuvering between the classes and demagoguery. In addition, Marx characterized his activities as corrupted and noted that the leader used the tools of the criminal world (for example, blackmail, bribery, and so on) (Marx 45). Moreover, Bonapartism lobbied the interests of the bourgeoisie and resorted to terror. In particular, having analyzed the first months of this regime, the author had already noted these characteristics and contradictions in the Bonaparte’s course of action. In addition, Marx reviewed the situation of the peasantry during this period. The group encompassed numerous amounts of people, which suggested great political opportunities for Bonaparte if he enlisted the support of this population group (Marx 6). Despite the fact that the peasants supported a conservative position, they also experienced revolutionary moods. People wanted to move from the conditions in which they were living and thought that they could solve their problems by giving
List and describe basic requirements for VMware ESXi and vCentre server Before installing VMware ESXi and vCentre server, fundamental requirements must be met (Ferguson, 2014). VMware ESXi servers require a 64-bit x86 processors. The servers also need a minimum of 2 GB RAM. In addition, the servers need a minimum of 10GB Ethernet controllers. On the other hand, the vCentre server requires 2.0GHz or faster Intel AMD 64 processor. Processor requirements can be greater if the database operates on the same computer. vCentre server also requires a minimum of 4GB RAM (Ferguson, 2014). Memory requirements can greater if the database operates on the same computer. Equally, the server requires disk storage of at least 4GB, and a Gigabit connection. Identify and list the procedures for upgrading vSpere Distributed Switch Upgrading of vSphere Distributed Switch can improve its functionalities. The improvement enables the switch to exploit functionalities, which are available only in the advanced versions (Ferguson, 2014). The upgrade of the device is a non-disruptive process. The above imply that the process does not have any downtime on the hosts and virtual machines connected to the device. The procedures for upgrading the device are listed below:  1. Open the vSphere web client  2. Navigate to the distributed switch  3. Right-click the distributed switch  4. Click on the upgrade Distributed Switch  5. Chose the vSphere Distributed Switch version you desire to advance to and click  6. Thereafter, click next  7. Evaluate host compatibility and click next  8. Evaluate your settings and click finish After the advancement of vSphere Distributed Switch, the device cannot be lapsed to its earlier version (Mishchenko, 2010). Similarly, VMware ESX server hosts running on a former discordant version with the new device version cannot be added. Detail various roles needed for vCentre and ESXi ESXi and vCenter servers offer default roles. The roles cluster privileges for mutual areas of duty in a vSphere setting. The default roles are utilized in allocating permissions in vSphere setting environment (Ferguson, 2014). They are also utilized as models when coming up with other roles. The system roles comprise of no access, read-only, and administrator. No access role is used in canceling permission, which could otherwise be broadcasted to an object from a source object. The read-only role allows the user to access every tab panel in the vSphere Client, with the exception of the console tab (Guthrie & Lowe, 2011). The administrator roles enable the user to enhance, eliminate, and regulate access privileges for the vCentre server operators and every virtual object i
The Constitution is the fundamental document following which the entire state functions, its most necessary aspects. Thanks to this document, the United States was finally settled in the form that the state has at the moment. On the one hand, the importance of such a text cannot be denied because, without it, the current United States could not exist. However, this document is more than 200 years old. Given how much the surrounding world has changed over the years, the question arises: does the Constitution retain its relevance in a modern government? From my point of view, even despite the extended period, the basis of this text is still relevant even in the modern world. First of all, it is worth noting that the Constitution should be considered together with all 27 amendments that are currently in place. The original text of the Constitution was not perfect, and not even all delegates were ready to sign this document due to the lack of a bill of rights (“The Constitution,” n.d.). However, through the joint work of politicians and philosophers, additional rights were formed, which people still refer to to this day. For example, the first amendment provides the protection of freedom of speech and press, facts that remain relevant to this day, especially in the light of certain scandalous events. In addition, the importance of the Constitution and its relevance to government is expressed in the preamble, which refers to the guarantees of justice and order and the protection of freedom. Naturally, this document is not ideal, but it was not meant to be such. Even Dr. Franklin admitted mistakes in the text but hoped for a better society and future improvements (“The importance of Constitution Day,” n.d.). Thus, much of the Constitution is still relevant today, and the government should endeavor to implement it as diligently as it did during its creation. However, it should be noted that recently some actions of the government and authorities have run counter to the fundamental principles of the country. Nevertheless, the problem lies not in the relevance of the Constitution to power, since the document is correct, but in the government’s failure to comply with some of its provisions, which generates injustice and infringement of freedoms.
Defense Support of Civil Authorities and its importance Defense Support of Civil Authorities (DSCA) denotes the process through which the US military can be deployed to undertake tasks that are meant for the civil authorities (Tussing & McCreight, 2014). Conventionally, the military is charged with the responsibility of defending the US territories against intrusion by foreigners. However, in the contemporary times, the role of the US military has changed greatly due to increased terrorist activities. The US military now works with the civil authorities in mitigating domestic crimes and in other rescue missions during disasters. The DSCA is headed by The Directorate of Military Support for Domestic Operations (DOMS) and each state has a single DOMS. The DOMS is responsible for discharging military equipments and personnel to areas of disasters when called to do so by the office of emergency management. The basic roles, functions, missions, and capabilities of the National Guard The National Guard is a special military reserve unit established at around 1636 (Buchalter, 2007). It is composed of citizen-soldiers and they are mandated to serve in the army while preserving their civilian lives. The National Guard is made up of two branches, viz. the Air National Guard and the Army National Guard. The National Guard’s personnel are skilled men and women who provide technical support to the military in times of special needs. The mission of the National Guard is primarily to offer support to the military in times of active warfare. Initially, such support was only afforded in active warfare involving the US and a foreign country. However, the mission is changing with the changing nature of attacks within the US territories. Terrorist attacks have increased tremendously within the US, thus facilitating the deployment of the National Guard in the homeland security. In pursuance of this mission, the National Guard was employed during the Second World War to contain the Soviet Union. The National Guard’s main responsibility is to provide professional support to the active soldiers in times of war (Buchalter, 2007). With the introduction of the “Total Force Concept” in the 1970s, the role of the National Guard has changed greatly (Tussing & McCreight, 2014). The concept was launched by Melvin Laird, the then secretary of defense. The move followed concerns from the public over excessive expenditure on the Vietnam War. The total force concept requires cooperation amongst all elements of the forces. In other words, the concept increased the National Guard’s involvement in the US security. The National Guard also assists in the homeland security (Buchalter, 2007

The official language in the country is Czech while Slovak is also officially recognized. The currency for the Czech Republic is the Czech crown which was introduced in 1993 after the country was separated from Slovakia. ‘The finance ministry has revised its economic forecasts for 2008 and 2009, which are less optimistic about the national outlook. Real GDP growth has been written down to 4.7% from 4.9% for this year and to 4.7% to 5.1% in 2009.’ (‘Risk Summary: Czech Republic’, 2008) The business environment in the region is very positive as the country is facing economic growth in the region. Moreover, th
Introduction Quality assurance can be referred to as a set of activities taken to ensure that healthcare organizations’ standards are maintained. It also entails evaluating the situation to improve performance. The ultimate goal is to provide effective and safe care. The Healthcare industry is characterized by an exorbitant amount of protocols. Quality assurance (QA) programs are therefore used to monitor and ensure services offered are of quality standard. QA programs are key areas in healthcare organizations and are thus emphasized. The department of the same is managed by a dedicated team of professionals headed by the medical director.QA program department is responsible for analyzing healthcare requirements and ensuring protocols are observed within the organization. To meet their goals as a department, the team employs a quantitative approach to collecting and analyzing data necessary for the task (Nelson, et al ., 1999). QA Program in Hospitals and their Importance QA programs have been the center of attention for many healthcare organizations. This has seen most of them lay workers off. They have concentrated on this department at th
Introduction The argument of whether or not the new marketing paradigm exists seems quite odd, to say the least. The global market is changing, the economies are gravitating towards more efficient practices, and so do the marketing strategies. The following work aims at further expanding on the subject of the new marketing paradigm and explaining some of its features based on the example of a global company compared with a New Zealand-based one. New marketing paradigm The new paradigm explained Where the old ways and terms do not apply, the new ones evidence the paradigm shifts, although they do not nullify the experience of the past. For one, the new paradigm goes from contact-making to asset-building. The old paradigm mostly operated with outreach and frequency, while overlooking the fact that some contacts were harder to reach than the others. The new principle leverages the outreach by applying new techniques like brand engagement and content marketing, with heavy use of digital technology. Second, the new paradigm disposes of campaign marketing and switch to platforms, where the products are less broadcasted and more personalized. Third, a very important paradigm shift has emerged in the way brand-consumer interaction happens. Today, brands actively interact with their consumers, giving them useful advice on how to make the most of the product. Finally, and most critically to market competitiveness, the companies stop raising awareness about the product and start to increase the consumers’ participation through various media, mainly the digital ones (Peppers & Rogers, 2006). The new paradigm and market competition The fourth and final component of the new paradigm pertains directly to the competition in the market. The companies used to broadcast to blind their customers with the marketing message and the urge to buy. The simple fact was that they promoted a category of a certain product rather than a specific item, while other companies had a chance to cleverly retarget the broadcasting and get more consumers. The media activation is the key to increasing competitiveness, thus changing its role from mere voice-sharing to making the customers engaged with a familiar product that is, at the same time, new. The adverts, however cleverly they were designed, had to be reviewed and structured anew to meet the new requirements. Adverts have ceased to be a message concentrated on itself. Rather, it is a means of motivating the customer to act back. The more engaging the ads are, the higher the competitive factor of every individual establishment. Different views There is quite a body of research where different authors express their views on each of the components of the paradigm. For instance, Chandler and Lush (2015) support the alignment of channels as assets for a
Summary In this course of history, Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) has been critical for serving the educational and social needs of people living in Richmond (Ray 8). To a great extent, it contributed to the economic development of this community. However, this organization currently faces several critical challenges that can impair its growth in the long term. In particular, there is a significant decrease in the enrollment of African-American students, even if one speaks about undergraduate programs (Kapsideus par. 1). Furthermore, the percentage of black educators in VCU also tends to decline. Thus, some learners and educators may believe that they are marginalized. To some degree, these examples suggest that this university should develop more inclusive policies that can effectively support the needs of people who may represent difficult cultures, races, ethnicities, or linguistic groups. Moreover, one should understand what kind of challenges minority students may face. This task has become particularly important during the last decade during which VCU began to attract a greater number of international students. This is one of the details that should be stressed. Furthermore, the organization strongly relies on the work of adjunct professors. It should be mentioned that these people hold only part-time posts, and their wages are lower in comparison with tenured faculty. Admittedly, the strategy can reduce the costs of VCU. However, the key problem is that the quality of education can be impaired since many teache
Introduction As a result of the widespread interest and the need to support the alignment of agencies, there is need to teach the Aboriginal students how to read and write (SW DET, 2008 p. 73). Such interventions can help in outlining and solving the challenges faced by parents, principles, community members, teachers and educational support members in addressing the numerous inequalities among the Aboriginal students (SW DET, 2008 p. 73). To achieve equitable outcomes in addressing the inequalities the Aboriginal face, the following aspects are considered necessary;  1. The practice of classroom teaching  2. Relationship nature between the school and home  3. The teachers’ knowledge in understanding their respective Aboriginal students  4. The significance of dealing with the Aboriginal people Classroom teaching practices The classroom teaching practices determines the attainment of the basic skills for the Aboriginal students (SW DET, 2008: p. 73). Therefore, improving the literacy as well as numeracy results among the Aboriginal students is the main and urgent aspect that needs to be resolved. The parents’ involvement, early assessment and relevant interventions are the initial steps in supporting the Aboriginal students (SW DET, 2008 p. 74). In order to develop and achieve the implementation of an explicit literacy as well as numeracy programs for the identified Aboriginal students, there is need to apply the data vs. evidence-based research approach (SW DET, 2008 p. 74). Careful identification of what is already known to be working in the classroom is the integral attempt. There is need to identify and understand whatever happens within the classrooms in meeting the Aboriginal learners’ needs, prior to embarking on any intervention programs (SW DET, 2008 p. 74). Among the literacy programs that designed to enable the students at lower primary as additional support include; Reading recovery Early Literacy Initiative (ELI) The Early Literacy Initiative provides an intensive and professional development support required by the teachers as from Kindergarten to the final year of study (SW DET, 2008: p. 74). It implements the beginning with an assessment program in gathering the data that enables teachers in making some informed judgments concerning the literacy achievements of their students, hence them to identify such students who are in need of any further support (SW DET, 2008 p. 74). The following are some of relevant strategies that improve the Aboriginal students’ skills;  1. Talking as well as listening programs, particularly in Kindergarten facilitating the home language of the Aboriginal students  2. Training and providing support to teacher
