Adolf Loos: Background and Key Themes The link between form and function has been the central argument of architecture since it was represented by Sullivan in 1896.[1] While the opinions regarding the degree of connection between the two have been varying for decades, the general concept of architecture works as a delicate balance between form and function had been persistent for a while. A strikingly different perspective on the subject matter, however, was introduced into the realm of architecture once Adolf Loos’s creative genius became globally renowned. Viewing architecture as an art form, Loos took Sullivan’s principle to its extreme and stated that “the building’s identity resides in the ornament.”[2] Despite the fact that Kantner Bar and Steiner House, which are two of the landmark art pieces created by Loss, were built on the same time slot, they represent by comparison a significant shift in Loss’s artistic paradigm from incorporating certain elements of the Art Nouveau genre to defining the further evolution thereof and using a minimalist approach to promote the importance of function as the essential elements of design. Therefore, Kantner Bar and Steiner House should be explored from the perspective of the artistic and personal evolution of the architect. Although built roughly within the same time period, the two art pieces are strikingly different from each other in their adherence to the primary principles of design simplicity heralded by Loos as the defining characteristics of the style. As a result, Steiner House has a much more definitive and complete look than Karntner Bar, which resembles a rehearsal before the grand creation. Kantner Bar: Art Nouveau in All Its Glory When considering the most memorable examples of Art Nouveau that are clearly representative of the genre, one must mention the Kantner Bar located in Vienna; it incorporates traditional elements and characteristics of the Art Nouveau style. For instance, the fact that it was built using rich yet simple materials deserves to be mentioned as an essential characteristic.[3] The specified choice of materials allows making the look of the building, including both the interior and exterior, rather cosmopolitan.[4] As a result, the building meets the criteria of the Art Nouveau style quite accurately (see Appendix A). The Kantner Bar, therefore, should be regarded as a step in the right direction on Loos’s way of exploring the formalist approach to architecture. Nevertheless, the building has the seal of Art Nouveau’s predecessors in every element of its design. For instance, the choice of artistic elements such as decorative items points to Loos’s willingness to reduce their impact on the aesthetic characteristics of architecture artworks, yet Loos was clearly not ready to refrain from using ornaments in his work completely. Indeed, a closer look at some of the decorative elements will reveal that, while being rather smooth
Administration, managers, governing bodies, and employees are essential contributors to the sufficient functioning of a long-term care facility. A primary goal of this paper is to describe the substantial functions, relationships, and legal responsibilities of various stakeholders. It is vital to show the complexity of these relationships and determine the occurrence of the problem with the assistance of the real world case. Some synergies and conflicts, which occur during the relationships, will be evaluated and discussed. Various Functions of Stakeholders and Legal Responsibilities It is necessary to describe the duties of each stakeholder before starting the analysis. The administration is responsible for paying the attention whether all employees follow all of the aspects outlined in the Union Contract (Singh, 2010). In general, the administrator is responsible for maintaining the long-term care facility is to preserve sustainable interrelationships between the workers. It is obligatory to have governing bodies in the long-term care facilities, and these institutions are represented by the board of directors. The board is fully responsible for the actions of the organization such as providing the facility with a mission and distributing the resources (Singh, 2010). It could be said that the board is legally responsible for all the actions and operations related to the hospital activities (Shi & Singh, 2011). It is apparent that the governing body has to establish a sufficient scheme to sustain the flow of everyday activities. Lastly, the board has to make a final choice while hiring the personnel (Shi & Singh, 2011). As for departmental managers, their primary duty is to maintain the sufficient relationships between different members of the department. However, they have also to contribute to building a team spirit and enhancing the flow of information (Singh, 2010). It is clear that departmental managers have to act in agreement with the law, pay attention to schedules of the personnel in order to act in accordance with the Code of Ethics. Speaking of the consultants, their primary duty is to enhance the relationships between different members of the facility with the help of the training programs for the managers and employees (Singh, 2010). As for the employees, their primary function is to provide high-quality services to the patients. In this case, beneficiaries are the ones, who receive the care and financial support from the benefactor, such as Medicare (Singh, 2010). It is apparent that medical institution is legally obliged to contribute to the improvement to a state of a beneficiary (Shi & Singh, 2011). Relationships between Different Stakeholders Governing body and stakeholder have to share the responsibilities with the administr
Introduction Despite heavy criticism concerning animal rights activists as well as other groups, corrida, the Spanish name for bullfighting, is still one of the symbols of Spain, but will we and our children watch mouth-opened the skilled matador defeating the courageous and dangerous bull? Analysis When tourists, as well as Spanish people, name things they associate with Spain, bullfighting is among the first three things. This is often referred to as art, tradition, love, passion, risk, and something larger than life. At the same time, some people argue that bullfighting is the torture and slaughter, barbarism and archaism or even national disgrace. There is no consensus on the matter, but people agree that it is a complex issue that may differently affect people’s lives. “This is barbaric torture of innocent animals that are bred to be killed slowly and painfully just for fun!” claims Anna, 24, an animal rights activist. She has been to bullfighting once in her life, and that changed her life. She says, “I was shocked to see the suffering of the poor bull that was slowly dying.” Anna is not alone in her attitude towards tradition. Badcock (2015) notes that the Spanish society will be divided for a long time as there is no simple solution to the issue, and animal rights fighters will oppose bullfighting. At the same time, animal rights activism is only one facet of the problem. The issue has a political and economic background, and it is also associated with the issues of cultural identity. Frayer (2011) notes that the decision of Catalonia to ban bullfighting has a historical as well as political context. During the times of Franco’s dictatorship, Catalan’s culture and language were severely repressed, and the bullfighting issue is now seen as a way to resolve some national and cultural problems. People of Catalonia want to stress the difference between them and the rest of Spain. The ban on bullfighting is one of many things Catalan people do in this respect. Of course, people in Madrid dislike such attitudes, and think that Barcelona is the “capital of traitors” as Yolanda, 34, a matador’s wife puts it. “This is our tradition, our history, our passion, and this is what we are,” says Yolanda. The woman is very emotional when asked about the controversy of bullfighting. In fact, she does not see any controversy, but insists on the importance of this kind of art, as she refers to bullfighting. “Those who do not like corrida have no idea about the history of Spain and our culture, and they are national traitors!” Yolanda exclaims. The woman expresses her outrage without choosing words and notes that she is sick and tired of the debate on the matter. She believes that those who do not like bullfighting should keep away from bullrings, and everybody will be happy. The renowned anthropologist Brandes (2009, p. 783) claims that bullfighting is “Spain’s distinctive identity” and thousands of people associate it with Spain. Landborn (2015) states that Spaniards associate corrida with such concepts as courage, passion, skill, life, and death as well as the eternal conflict between nature (bull) and the human (matador).

Introduction Yemen is at present in a condition of emergency as battling between Houthi revolts and the army faithful to President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi crushes the nation. Notwithstanding the firearm fights and bombing in significant urban communities, there have been lengthy airstrikes against the Houthis by forces led by the Saudis, which have destroyed so many buildings and structures. The constant ground battling and Saudi airstrikes have likewise debilitated to degenerate the officially critical philanthropic circumstance in Yemen while the loss of life from the contention has ascended to more than 540. The present emergency originates from differences between gatherings in Yemen’s intricate political environment that began even before the overthrowing of previous President Ali Abdullah Saleh in a mutiny in 2001. The precariousness of Yemen will have awesome ramifications for its economy and the neighboring states’ economies. Saudi Arabia should spend tremendous measures of cash to decrease the impacts of Yemen shakiness. There will be an expansion of spending plan for outskirt security to decrease and keep dangers from radical activists furthermore drugs and human trafficking. The Saudis had officially multiplied the span of their border protection along the Sa’ada fringe in March 2007. The circumstance in Yemen will drive Saudi Arabia to build its fringe security abilities, which implies an expansion in the number of military and spending plan. It will need to gain more patrol guards and vehicles and other observation and authorization capacities. The neighboring nations would hope to construct displaced person camps for the normal masses of refugees which would influence the state of their economies. The significant effect on the Saudi economy will originate from the risk to its oil establishments and oil consignments that the flimsiness of Yemen would force. Yemen ignores a sea stifle point which is the Strait of Bab al-Mandab. Saudi Arabia and Yemen are two bordering nations that have a rich and convoluted history. Saudi Arabia is the leading in the world in terms of export of oil with a brilliant economy and a steady government while Yemen, on the other hand, is the inverse. It is considered to be the poorest nation in the area and has never been completely steady since its freedom from the Othman Empire in 1918. As of late, the circumstance of Yemen’s steadiness has exacerbated and it is very nearly turning into a fizzled state. There is a solid probability that administration power in the Republic of Yemen is going to disintegrate in the near future as a conseq
Critical Review of Charles Handy Born in 1932, Charles Handy is an Irish author and philosopher who has contributed immensely to the field of organizational behavior by predicting the future of work and the implications of change in organizations. He is also a theorist who has contributed significantly to the field of organizational theory and management. He has received several accolades because of his works in these fields. One notable one is a top ranking in the group of Thinkers 50 , which is a prestigious clique of influential philosophers in the management field (King & Lawley, 2016). His contributions to organizational behavior have greatly redefined how people view their careers and manage their lives. A key hallmark of his influence in organizational management is the understanding that work will have a discontinuous change, whereby few people would be confined to full-time jobs in the future (King & Lawley, 2016). His findings portray a future where discontinuous change will become a permanent fixture of working lives and organizations. Organizational adaptation to change has been at the center of Handy’s works (Pugh & Hickson, 2016). It is also going to be at the center of our research focus because, in this paper, we critically review his contributions to organizational behavior. Handy on Organizations A review of Handy’s work on organizations shows that four books written by him have been the source of his predictions about the future nature of organizations. These books include “Understanding Organizations” (first published in 1976), “The Age of Unreason” (first published in 1989), “Gods of Management” (first published in 1985), and “The Empty Raincoat” (first published in 1994). In the first book called “Understanding Organizations,”
Pride and Prejudice is arguably the most successful of Jane Austen’s works. After trying out different forms of writing for years, Austen identified her style through Pride and Prejudice (Worsley 100). This novel centers its story around two people in a turbulent relationship that requires them to overcome their immense pride and prejudice to accept their love for each other and marry. The two characters, Elizabeth and Darcy, were different in the background but very similar in characteristics (Awan 676). Austen is considered by some experts one of the first feminist writers in history, which allows one to explore her characters from such a perspective. Elizabeth Bennet is the character whom Austen uses to highlight the importance of treating women as equal members of society and demonstrates that females must be recognized and respected. Elizabeth Bennet Elizabeth is the second born in the Bennet family and has four sisters and no brothers. In the family, she has a reputation as the most intelligent girl, despite the fact that she did not receive a formal education (Austen 168). Austen presents Elizabeth as a person who possesses intellectual curiosity and considerable intelligence to challenge a stereotype about women not being interested in studying common during the period of the writing. Additionally, with a character such as Elizabeth, Austen demonstrates that women must not adhere to the norms established in society which require them to act in a way limiting their abilities and interests. The intelligence of Elizabeth provides her with the sense of independence and desire to avoid simply serving men,
Introduction International role has been a heritage for every nation in the world. The recent decades have seen all countries in the world anticipate becoming the key players in the international scope. International role of a nation becomes pronounced in terms of economic, social, political, and economic aspects. Over the years, Canada has played very crucial roles internationally as a result of its enthusiastic leaders and citizens, always committed to act as change models. Additionally, the nation has proved to have great potential in the international affairs, a factor that places the country among the global giants. Global giants have proved themselves through their endless interest to become more prominent as well as to dominate the economic and social society of the world. However, participation in international roles becomes a success for those countries that have set themselves apart for the sake of international development. Thus, with the modern global transformations, Canada should play a larger international role than it has done previously to enhance their participation in global affairs [1]. The discussion in this paper is aimed at establishing the fact that Canada should play a larger international. It will also provide a detailed discussion to establish how Canada should play a larger international role International role An International role is that which an individual or a nation performs for the benefit of other nations. The role need not only be played when a need arises, but at any given time and to any nation across the globe. Many countries have been enthusiastic to take part in the global development and transformation through their advancement in all aspects. Many expand industrially like china and Japan, others in terms of agrarian revolution like South-East Asia etc. However, every nation possesses a unique cultural set up, historical background as well as political and economical backgrounds. The interplay of these factors provides a ground for each country to play a distinct role internationally. Some countries like Canada are good players when it comes to the international security and peacekeeping roles [2] . Additionally, participation in international roles depends on the historical background of a nation, since it acts as a confident driving force towards anticipated success. More over, the world needs such international players, since the international roles act as instruments for global cooperation. Several roles that international players can participate in include boosting of the global economy, enhancing the global social relationships, taking part in building an ample political world as well as improving the cultures of the global nations. More over, the current world is dynamic, especially on issues regarding technological advancements [3] . Thus, nations should boost each other in order that equity in these advancements may take pre-eminence to avoid a nation’s lag behind. In addition, it takes the strategic decisi
Faith Improves the Quality of Life As a result of completing the course, I came to the conclusion that faith improves the quality of life. This quote was not chosen by chance since I noted a direct correlation in practice. In order to more accurately explain this choice, it is necessary to define what is meant by the term faith. The bottom line is that it is not so much about God or a specific denomination but about inspiration and motivation consumed from a worldview with an awareness of higher powers. It is believed that people with religious views have more developed empathy, but analytical thinking is suppressed. In fact, this is not entirely correct because there is a dependence on the priorities being set (Dockery & Wax, 2019). For example, adherence to certain vectors set by religion helps an individual to be not only a respectable person but also to maximize the effectiveness of achieving certain goals. In addition, the researchers argue that religion and science should not always be viewed as opposing forces. Many great scientists believed in God or other higher powers in one way or another, including 90% of the 21st-century Nobel laureates (Dockery & Wax, 2019, p.54). A fruitful combination of these two ways of thinking can mutually enrich them; religious feeling does not always conflict with science. Under the right circumstances, it can positively influence scientific activity by creating and developing intuition. The thinking of a religious person is formed and built on the basis of fundamental, absolute concepts, which he does not question in any way. After perception and comprehension, sensory perception is transformed into scientific enlightenment. Later, after a while, as other evidence is approved, that very knowledge about the object of belief is confirmed, and faith, an idea about this object, is even more strengthened. Then this knowledge begins to affect the mind of a person and the actions he performs. Based on the foregoing, I can confidently conclude that religion improves the overall quality of life since it helps an individual to remain both an effective worker or family member and a citizen of justice. Problem Solving It is necessary to single out religion as one of the auxiliary tools for effectively solving problems. Belief in moralistic, punitive gods interested in human affairs may have facilitated the spread and development of human societies, according to the study’s authors, published in the latest issue of the journal Nature. In this study, researchers test the hypothesis that belief in God promotes cooperation, trust and justice, thus contributing to the social expans
