The Conscription of Wealth: Mass Warfare and the Demand for Progressive Taxation (2010) by Kenneth Scheve and David Stasavage.

Scheve and Stasavage assert that redistribution of wealthy through progressive taxation has remained a major concern for governments for many years. Most governments adopt tax policies, which support the use of progressive taxation to lower income disparity, promote investment and minimize collective sacrifice and suffrage of citizens in warfare (Scheve & Stasavage 529). However, the increase in demand for progressive taxation is fuelled by existence of political parties, which mobilize mass to participate in warfare and the establishment of ...

International business refers to cross-border trade between different political jurisdictions. International business can either be carried out by private businesses or the private companies. Since the dawn of the western civilization, nations have been trading with each other to supplement the commodities that were missing in their jurisdictions. The works of neoliberal economist influenced the nature of economic trade between nations. Globalization added to liberalization of the economy. Private business enterprises were allowed to enter the market. International business posed many risks to businesses that were quick to enter the global market without taking the risks into considerations. Cross ...

The article that will be reviewed is “Close Reading in Elementary Schools”. The article is about a qualitative research on close reading and how it can be adapted by elementary schools.

The hypothesis that is being tested is whether close reading is an appropriate instructional routine for elementary students. The research methodology used by the authors is the observation of teachers from different grade levels, who taught different subjects and who are willing to explore close reading. The results of the study reveal the key features that must be addressed if close reading is to be implemented in elementary ...

The article “Explaining Development and Change in Organizations,” written by Ven and Poole (1995), explains changes within organizations through introducing four basic organization development theories. The authors use those theories to explain why changes in organizations occur, and they identify the circumstances in which those theories are applicable to describe an organization’s change and development. All theories are different and focus on observing different determinants of business development and change. For example, the life-cycle theory focuses on logical and sequenced factors, such as institutional rules or programs, to explain business development while the teleological theory suggests ...

Economics is the study of how human beings use the scarce resources in the environment to satisfy their unlimited wants. Various economies in the world have been analyzed by financial and economic analysts who have the knowledge in economics. Some of the analysis has been put into writing in articles as well as journals. This has been important in evaluating the causes and impacts of the changes in economic activities in the world. “American Trends in Oil: Less of a Menace from Oil” is one of the articles analyzing the economic activities in the United States of America.

Article Summary

The article of Baller & Richardson explains that the theory of Durkheim regarding suicide can be attributed to geographic space, social integration, and imitation (Baller & Richardson 873). The risk of suicide is high that can be based on the neighboring areas since it is man’s reflection of how he perceived the behaviour of other people that has a tendency influence his own actions. The replication of another person’s action is the powerful force that will drive another to act in a certain way. The article has shown that the hypotheses of Durkheim and Tarde are correct to a certain degree. The ...

Introduction of the Research

Sign languages have two noticeably distinct types of morphological structure, one is sequential, and the other is simultaneous. Other than this there are two common sign languages being used, American and Israeli. Both of the languages fall in simultaneous morphology and are very similar, but when it comes to sequential morphology they differ, and are also derivational. There are different types of inflectional morphology that are discussed briefly in the paper. This research was also done to bring in the similarities between sign language and spoken languages all along; in 1970s and 1980s which are the starting days of ...

Marriage has changed in the last century. Divorce rates are at all tie highs. Though divorce rates are up and this causes some people to think that there is are increased marriage crisis, Eli J. Finkel believes that this could be interpreted as a positive thing for the institution of marriage. She writes “though marriage has experienced disruptive changes like higher divorce rates, such developments are a sign that the institution has evolved to better respect individual autonomy, particularly for women” (Finkel, 1). In the past marriage as an institution did not hold women as equal partners in the arrangement. In ...

Introduction
In the late 1820’s, the Northern Carolina became more industrialized as the Southern remained non-developed. The Congress had passed a high protective tariff in 1828 that made the southern states more furious because they thought the tariff only benefited the northern states. The southern claimed that high tariff on imports were imposed to them leading to increased costs of importing products. Bradley Hays saw the Southern states sympathy to South Carolina’s position on the tariff rejected as the cause of federalism (Hays 221). Eventually, the doctrine of nullification was introduced that provided an insight to the ...

The two dangerous assumptions that are held in the research in gender different include the following. The assumption that, if we find a sex differences in some ability or kind of behavior, that means that all males do a particular thing and all females do some quite different thing ( for example, all men are aggressive, and all females are passive and peace-loving). Test scores of males and females overlap and thus, finding a sex difference does not mean that all women are one way and all men are one way. Therefore, knowing ones sex cannot possibly be used to predict the behavior ...

Introduction

Leadership and motivation are concepts that are inherent in any achievement of desired goals. Every individual or organization with personal or corporate objectives respectively needs to apply leadership and motivation concepts. Leadership goes hand in hand with the amount of influence that a given person can impact on his followers. The ability to convince followers towards a common goal determines a leader’s performance. In my opinion, motivation is the basis for all achievements in all aspects. Leadership influences the performance of any individual or organization. In addition, it influences how parties involved in an organization’s activities are motivated towards the ...

The research problem in the article is, “Do people behave indiscernibly different ways when they are deceitful compared with when they are telling the truth?” Thus, the research aims to find out if people behave differently while telling the truth or when they are lying. The research methodology used was the literature search procedures that were recommended by Cooper (1998). They conducted computer-based searches of psychological abstracts and examined the reference lists from several reviews.
Their finding was that when one was telling lies, they tend to press their lips compared to those ones who are telling the ...

Globalization comes into mind when barter of goods and services take place. In any trading or business-related scenario, separate parties must always ensure fairness when exchanging respective assets and goods. There are two economic theories analyzing the scenario of trading goods and resources, and these two theories are known as comparative advantage and absolute advantage. Comparative advantage focuses on enhancing the quality of produced goods, while absolute advantage determines the capabilities of a company to produce at a highly quantified rate. Choosing a theoretical economic approach may vary depending on the priorities and necessities of concerned parties. However, it is important to ...

The article in question here discusses the risk of date rape on college and university campuses. Because protection motivation theory proposes that people have a few priorities regarding their personal health and wellness-- that people consider the potential occurrence of an event, their vulnerability to an event, self-efficacy and the effectiveness of preventative behavior-- all these things must be considered when considering implementing protection motivation theory.
This article talks about the relationships that exist between “dating activity, social competency, and type of information provided with the dependents variables of date rape related protection behavior (intent), belief, and knowledge” (Singh ...

Leadership Theories
Leadership is a process that a group or an individual impacts a group of individuals to reach a certain or common goal (Parent et. al., n.d.). According to Parent et. al., (n.d.) the literature concerning leadership has transformed from the trait or behavioral approach to the transformational. This change also includes the transactional and charismatic leadership approaches (Parent et. al., n.d.).
According to Kouzes & Posner (2007), on the other hand, Leadership is a chance that can occur at any place or any time. It may happen in a huge or small house, the mall, the school, or in any group. This ...

Leadership traits are a very important necessity in the present corporate environment. This review would focus on certain Organizational Behavior concepts in the article by Alan Murray by analyzing and applying these concepts to illustrations in the article.
In his article, Murray illustrates the five basic traits of leadership along with additional traits as identified in the Implicit Leadership Theory. For instance, Murray gives the examples of Lincoln and Socrates as leaders who possessed all the five basic leadership traits and fit into the ‘leadership prototype’ concept. As per Joan Collins, these leaders had the masculine (personal will) and ...

Introduction

This paper is an article review of the scholarly journal “Strategic Management: Is it an Academic Discipline?” Strategic Management is a necessary facet of modern day administration. It is a discipline that is used by managers to conduct business with a certain foresight. It is comparatively a new field of research and therefore has a lot of potential in terms of academic research as well as innovative amendments. However, critics believe that Strategic Management is not exactly an academic discipline and therefore can be learnt easily on the job based upon the theories and extensive literature. There is also a danger to the academic researchers ...

The psychoanalytic theory elaborates the functioning of the human being with a large emphasis on the effect the psyche (personality) on the physical body. Freud’s theory of psychoanalysis is underpinned by the notion that a human being is always in conflict between the demand or the society and the drives emanating from his psyche. The psyche or personality of a person is made up of three distinct aspects namely, the id, ego, and superego. These aspects of a human personality accord to him some level of dynamism that is as a result of motivation, anxiety, defense mechanism, dreams and parapraxes (Bornstein, 2010).

Introduction

Essentialism or the idea of an essentialist in gender is founded on the belief of the late 1960’s that women should be minors and their jobs primarily relating to housewives, they included saying nursing say teaching. This is called an idea or the belief of an essentialist because people assumed that women, being women had limited skill sets that were present by their gender. Carole Vance looks at this idea of a social constructionist theory, and then looks at it again against the essentialist theory in the setting or the background of feminism. Essentialism as a tool of identification is. ...

Studies show that odor perception is directly related to the condition and functioning of the orbitofrontal cortex. The olfactory abilities of an otherwise normal human being can be largely impaired by neurological diseases as well as brain injuries. Moreover, scientists have also found that the ability to identify smells is often closely linked to functional brain activity levels. Killgore and Associates (2007) conducted a study to showcase the effectiveness of odor detection tests in predicting susceptibility to sleep deprivation as measured through Personality Tests. This experiment sought to prove that a small olfactory test can be a good predictor of emotional and ...

David Kolb developed the Experiential Learning Cycle theory in 1984. In his theory, Kolb explained that learning happens in four stage cycles and four separate learning styles where the recipient learns by undergoing the different knowledge phases from experience to reflection, followed by conceptualizing and ends with Action.
The Experiential learning theory according to Kolb outlines learning as the process of gaining, assimilating, transforming and owning knowledge by interacting with the environment (Kolb, 1984, p. 41). These interactions include abstract, concrete, reflective and active participation forms of learning.

The learning process follows this basic model (Saul McLeod, 2013)

As indicated in the model. Kolb’s learning model follows a ...

Introduction

This paper aims at critically analyzing the role played by the knowledge possessed by nurses and how it helps in the delivery of services in health cares. The research also seeks to highlight the importance of the resources used by nurses to acquire the much-needed knowledge (Barker, 2009). The staffing crisis problem occurs when knowledge in the provision of care is limited in nursing. When nurses lack inadequate knowledge in providing care, it is equal to not having enough staff. The costs of healthcare are very high, which means that patients need to get the best form of care ...

Instruction

Respondeat superior can be explained as the doctrine that affirms the responsibility of an employer over the employee. In particular, the doctrine states that a master is liable for torts committed by the servants in the course of their service (Pozgar, 2012). Pozgar (2012) elaborates that; respondeat superior dose not purge random negligence doctrine and neither is it exculpatory. As such, the employer remains predisposed to any negligence of its own that can be easily proved without respondeat superior doctrine being involved i.e. negligence in supervision or hiring. Correspondingly, the employee remains liable to the victim of the tort to ...

Summary
Notably, scholars have studied the human brain with efforts to understand the wonders behind its functionality. Over recent decades, scholars in the field of psychiatry have discovered groundbreaking understanding of the human brain. One of those areas is in the field of cognitive and motor brain mechanisms. Hesslow (2002) suggests that there is a close connection between imaging and perception in how the brain reacts. It can be explained through the simulation hypothesis, which states that thinking consists of simulated interaction with the environment and rest upon three assumptions. The assumptions include simulation of actions, simulation of perception, ...

‘Suicide Rates Rise Sharply in U.S.’
Life is generally considered to be the greatest gift to all of mankind. This is why the birth of a human being into the world is usually received with tremendous joy and happiness. However, the value of the same life is put under scrutiny when incidences of individuals taking their own lives are observed to be on the rise. Over the previous decade, it was observed that cases of suicide particularly among middle-aged persons had been on an upward trend. This has raised serious concern particularly since the modern society is exposed to ...

Section 1 of the DAA: Context of the Journal

I chose the article titled ‘Managerial-Enacted Empowerment: The Dimensionality and Effects on the Wellbeing and Performance of Service Workers’ by Michal Biron and Bamberger. Workers’ freedom of choice may be boosted to prevent the hurting of working effectiveness. The variables used are the dimensionality, effects on the well-being, and performance of social workers. Dimensionality is the dependent variable while social workers’ well-being and their performance are the independent variables. The well-being of social workers cannot be measured and hence it is a nominal variable. Conversely, performance of the social workers can be measured because it is a scalar quantity. For instance, ...

Commentary:

- Consciousness is a much debated yet less known topic that has been debated by both science and philosophy. However most of our knowledge about consciousness stems from introspection and behaviour analysis. This paper helps us move away from the psychological intuitions of consciousness.
- Through well-designed examples, the author allows us to understand that we cannot be the judge of our own consciousness.
- We may think that we see the full picture but our consciousness consists of a small fraction of what is actually in front of us. This theory is well explained ...

BOURDIEUSIAN THEORIES
The very famous French sociologist & philosopher, Bourdieu, gave theoretical ideas with researches done, that relates to everyday life. His theories were the ones meant for practice and his contributions to sociology were incredible as it was both theoretical & had practical evidences.
When it came to people or groups he refused any idea other than uniting the society & its people. He was completely against the idea of giving someone extraordinary importance vision, that usually comes into a picture imposing itself whenever it comes to a discussion between individual & society. Being a writer means inserting oneself completely into the literary ...

Introduction:

In the introduction, Clunas insists that Chinese art is quite a recent invention, in actual fact, not more than a hundred years old. Although the textiles, pieces of calligraphy, paintings, sculptures, ceramics and other works of art date from over 5,000 years old, the idea of grouping Chinese art is a much more recent phenomenon. The book is purposely called ‘Art in China’ and not Chinese art since it is principally written out of a major distrust of the existence of unifying principles that bring together art from a particular country.
There are several abrupt decisions that have been made in the ...

Power and empowerment are important intertwining issues in nursing. Nurses need empowerment for them to be effective in discharging their duties in the workplace. This is because their work involves daily interaction with physicians, patients and other healthcare professionals. Patients also need empowerment for them to self-manage their health. There are various approaches to power and they include critical social theory, organizational, management theories, and social psychological theories.
Critical social theory suggests that the group that has control possess more power than the oppressed group. This means that for the oppressed group to have the power, they must ...

In an intuitive investigation, Christiane Wilke seeks to reevaluate the significance of memorials in a multifaceted manner. His pursuit is hinged on getting the answers to three questions which revolve around the impact that memorials should have on us; with the ultimate goal of initiating a conversation around transitional justice and the need to incorporate theories of complex identities while ascribing specific relevance to memorials. His research is aimed at providing relevant evidence about the need to be cautious when setting up memorials because more often, their defined purpose ignores the existence of overlapping and congruent scenarios leading to their installation. ...

Introduction

In both qualitative and quantitative research, the close association between research and theory can basically be explained by the research components. The first impetus for the research is search for a theory. This means that development of theory depends on research, and also research depends on the theory. A number of researchers characterize this relationship as dialectic that is, a relationship where theory defines the data to be collected and the findings from research provide challenges to the accepted theories. It is thus correct to argue that research is the vehicle for development of theory. For that reason, this paper centers ...

Many nurses believe that they offer holistic care to the patients at the hospitals yet the level of holistic care that they offer remains unknown to most of the nurses. No known variable can attach to the relation between the family, friends, nurses and the patients during the medical attention and the holistic care (Geri &Haber, 2003).

The article by Maria and Daniel evaluates the informal support of children by parents after separation. According to the authors, researchers have focused more on the formal support where people have fixed amount of income and hence men are required to send a given amount of money to the children. In the case of low income earners and those who have incomes that vary from one time to another, the case is different and researchers have not looked at the effects of this on the fairness issue. Researchers have also ignored the informal support of children when mothers are remarried ...

Performance monitoring plays a crucial role in management practices to both practioners and government agencies. It is credited as a factor that improves government responsibility and not merely an accountability metric. In the recent days, the performance is taken as a policy development strategy rather than a management factor. Therefore, perfortmance management can be undertaken as a democratic force that interlinks government and citizens. This helps to bring unity and operation efficiency in a specific state. ...

THESIS: Laws on gun control are emplaced purely on cause and effect basis. When in actual fact more importance should be attached to the right to own a gun as opposed to the potential harm gun ownership can inflict.

(P1) Gun control laws are increased or decreased in regards to their relationship with crime. If gun control decreases gun violence which common sense may dictate it should be increased but if it doesn’t it’s useless.
(P2) Gun controls effect on crime is arguable either way as countries like the UK has a complete ban on hand guns and ...

The American hospital system is in a state of crisis. On the one hand there is competition to increase the profits that hospitals generate. On the other hand there is a concerted effort to improve the quality of care that is delivered by them. In some sense, these are competing values insofar as quality healthcare is an expensive proposition. Medical error accounts for a large portion of the failure in quality as well as the perceived lack of quality in care. In some respects, medical error is unavoidable. Physicians are humans and they will make mistakes. Furthermore, many hospitals are also teaching ...
