MANAGEMENT TYPOLOGY FOR COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS

Introduction
Community based organizations (CBOs) are responsible for improving the lives of people within local communities. According to Mike Hudson (2009), CBOs possess a unique model of transactions when compared to the public and private sector. These organizations provide services to the public while the service users enjoy the privilege of not having to pay for anything. However, not all CBOs are able to offer the same quality of service. In this regard, one way to compare them to each other is by creating a typology grid that can compare and contrast them with one another. This will help potential ...

It is worth to record, without fear of retribution from the public opinion that Edgar Allan Poe was one of the founder writers of detective series. In the inaugural work The Murders in the Rue Morgue he author introduces the detective C. Auguste Dupin, who did a marvellous job in trying to put matters into perspective to unravel the mysteries around the murder that occurred. Later on, Sir Arthur Canon Doyle followed in the footsteps of Edgar Allan Poe, in terms of thematic and literary approach (Doyle, 3). A practical instance is in the book titled Conan Doyle's text A ...

Watson appreciates the test from a chemical point of view, but fails to see any practical utilization of it. His doubts are quickly shattered by Holmes’s explanation of the test’s significance in a crime investigation as he points out that: “had this test been invented, there are hundreds of men now walking the earth who would long ago have paid the penalty of their crimes” (Doyle, ASIS 16). Given the fact that branches of Forensics medicine such as blood stain pattern analysis or forensics toxicology arose in the second half of the nineteenth century (“forensic medicine”), Holmes is a fictional ...

Inductive theory of research – involves a researcher starting from very specific data and then proceeding towards more general information about the research. For example, studying the culture of a person to understand the culture of the clan from which the person comes.
Deductive theory of research – works in reverse to the inductive theory. I.e. the research begins from a broad perspective and narrows down to individuals as it proceeds.
Epistemological considerations of research try to define the origin nature and scope of knowledge. It uses both positivist approach (scientific study of knowledge) and interpretive approach which deals with how a person ...

The Hudson River Valley region is thickly populated today, and it is hard to imagine that the region had lesser than 100,000 Native Americans before the arrival of the Europeans. French fur trappers and traders found their way into the region by the middle of the sixteenth century. When Henry Hudson explored the land and named the river as Hudson, he claimed the land for the Dutch. Later, the tiny Dutch settlement surrendered to the Royal Navy and attracted a large number of settlers from New England. Local natives and traders allied themselves with the new developments but ...

Discussion Questions

In what direction was Henry Hudson initially ordered to travel? What direction does he ultimately take? What does this say about Hudson’s personality?
Hudson was initially ordered to travel for the northeast. In fact, it was strongly recommended for him to do so. However, the man disobeyed and decided to travel in a totally different direction. He was three thousand miles in the opposite direction as he was sailing towards the northwest. The fact that Hudson disobeyed and chose his own way shows that he was very ambitious, risk taking and persistent. He knew what he wanted and ...

The Hudson River Valley region was not what it looks like today. Changes began during the nineteenth century, when the industrialization era, still in its nascent stage was starting to take its hold away from the valley in the Great Britain. The River Valley was seen as a great natural resource because of its abundance of natural beauty and rich history. There were exquisite landscapes and indigenous farms dotting the Valley region that attracted both tradesmen and tourists. Famous painters and writers represented the valley in a dramatic way in their works (Kealy 157). The agriculturally rich Hudson River ...

Introduction

The trapping of beavers for their fur in Canada played an important role in shaping of the native and subsequent cultures. The introduction of the fur trade brought about notable drastic changes in our native ways of life. In the end, these changes ultimately led to the erosion of a greater part of the native customs and culture and eventually led to the formation of a completely new hybrid culture with new and distinct customs. During the early periods of the European traders’ settlement in Canada, there was very little interaction between the fur traders and us. During these periods of ...

A Research Proposal First Draft

Abstract
While many researchers and practitioners alike are still finding that it is possible to help children develop creative thinking skills, we are also finding that this practice isn't being incorporated for all our kindergarten and pre-school children. The purpose of this paper will therefore be to investigate the ways in which children at the preschool/kindergarten level are being supported in the development of creative thinking skills, as well as the particular role this has played in helping kindergarten students. After initiating a review of the literature to guide the study, the methodology will involve data collection—interviews with ...

It is difficult to imagine that the thickly populated Hudson River Valley region of today was sparsely populated before the Europeans arrived. The river is named after Henry Hudson, who explored the land that later attracted a large number of settlers from New England. Needless to say, Great Britain left a significant impact on the Economy of the Hudson River and its Valley in the 18th Century. The Valley area gathered much attention of both the Americans and the British. The Hudson River itself played a significant role in the quest for independence as the Americans used the river ...

Ninety percent of the population in the Arab world belong to Islamic religion, while the remaining ten percent belong to other religions, for example, Christian and Jewish religions. The idea of unifying the Arab nations started with the formation of the Arab League in 1945. Most Arab states gained their independence from British and French colonialists in this era. The Arab League allowed the independent states to maintain their sovereignty as ...

Abstract

Racial and ethnic stereotyping often links individuals and certain groups of persons from the public with suspicious activities most of which are criminal related. Hence, there will be profiling of individuals linked to such activities. For example, after the September 11 terrorist bombing in the United States, there was profiling of virtually all the Arabs and Muslims living, working, and immigrating to America. This is because the suspects were of Muslim and Arab origin (Bjerk; American Civil Liberties Union).
Persons and institutions charged with the responsibility of ensuring public security and safety mostly do racial profiling. However, as ( ...

Education has done little to improve social mobility. To what extent does this statement provide an accurate reflection of the role of education in contemporary Britain?

Introduction

The impact of education on equal opportunities and social mobility has been an important concern thoroughly explored in the field of sociology. An early British sociologist of education, Olive Banks, systematically tackled the issue of how an educational institution that establish hierarchy in schools in accordance to a hierarchical labour market could bring about 'parity of prestige' or, in simple term, equal opportunity (Irvin, 2008). There are conclusive sociological findings which reveal how ...

Future success of rock and roll

The four artists I believe will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in about 25 years are Beyonce, Chris Brown, Katy Perry, and Taylor swift. This may be supported by their contribution, endurance (remaining relevant), popularity, and success in the music industry.

Introduction

Sex offence legislation and policies have always relied on the sex registry to control the occurrence of sexual offences in the state. The sex registry has always elicited mixed reaction from the stakeholders with some of the views that are effective and some parties with the view that it has more negative than positive effects. The sex registry is a rich source of public information on sexual offenders but is the registry as effective as the state portray?

Thesis

The registry helps the state to have adequate information on sex offenders and occurrence of sexual offences, although it does not seem ...

Introduction

The fur trade has formed a remarkable part of the history of Canada. The fur trade greatly developed into western Canada until 1870 following the founding of the Hudson’s Bay and the North West Companies around 1670’s. This was a unique trade since during that time, it was the only industry that allowed the exchange of goods between two groups of people who were very different (that is, the Europeans and the Indians). According to several historians, the fur trade was an exploitation of gullible Indians by their European counterparts in the trade. Some of these historians such as ...

Despite the redistributive powers granted to courts in matters related to divorce, there is a limited statutory regime that offers adequate governance of financial consequences on cases. Therefore, the majority agrees that the current form of constructive trust in family affairs remains unsatisfactory. In this regard, the constructive trust in family law is associated with risk of injustice posed by the litigants. Tension between legal objectives arises when the courts attempt to combine various principles of law to provide justice. Also, a huge amount of legal waste is generated when judicial manipulation is applied to ensure fairness in justice ...

Human trafficking is the use of force or coercion to transfer, harbor, or otherwise recruit persons against their will to perform acts that may or may not be illegal in nature. It is a vile practice that robs human beings of their free will and degrades them in ways that are unimaginable to any thinking being. Unfortunately, it is also one of the most lucrative and easy practices that those who make a living exploiting others can imagine. While method and practices have been set into place across international borders to keep better tabs on such a horrific ...

Art of the 20th century is universally regarded as Modern Art. Modern Art comprised paintings that are revolutionary in forms and representations. Revolution in the sense of modern paintings is a way to describe the alterations done by modern artists to the common aspects and traditional representations of art on canvas. Among such brave, intelligent, and creative minds that dared the conventions of traditional painting and brought innovation to the art on canvases were Pablo Picasso and Jackson Pollock. Both became known for their own styles as well as for the tumultuous aspects of their lives such as relationships with ...

Theodore Gericault’s The Raft of Medusa is a canonical piece of art created in the early 19th century – in the wake of Romanticism in France. Romanticism was not a style, nor was it a manifestation of a singular idea. Instead, Romanticism was a movement, characterized by artists’ transfer of personality and mind onto their painting, including social criticism in the best way it could be presented in an art work.
French Romanticism closely followed the Neoclassical movement, which explains Gericault’s being strongly influenced by Michelangelo’s work (Durbin). Many critics also stated that the painting was influenced by the work of ...

Elizabeth Gaskell (1810 – 1865) and Arthur Conan Doyle (1859 – 1930) have both written novels that demonstrate how violence and prejudice disrupt the social order although their perspective is very different. Gaskell’s novel North and South (published in 1855) took place mostly in northern England and dealt with the complex issues of the social upheaval at the start of the Industrial Revolution. Doyle’s novel The Sign of the Four (published in 1890) had settings in both India and England. The Sign of the Four narrative takes place during the time of upheaval and social disorder when the East ...

Internet and Marketing

Marketing is a process that is used when determining the kinds of services and products that are interesting to customers, as well as the strategy that should be used in communications, sales and business development (Kotler et al., 2008). Marketing defines the strategy for sales and is always one of the main constituents of the companies’ success. It is possible to build efficient customer relationships only if the company has well-developed marketing strategy and employs professionals.

1.1 Background and Rationale of the Research
The industry of construction is not only a key player in the national economic growth; but also a crucial sector affecting the economic and social welfare of citizenry, particularly in its primary function in providing reliable and decent shelter. It is viewed as one of the most essential sector to highly contribute to the growth of an entire economy at the provincial, national and international levels (Artto & Kujala, 2008). In the recent years, cost modelling and estimation for construction projects have attracted major attention of several research scholars. ...

All countries in the world are unique in so many ways, and that is the reason they are regarded as different. They have adopted different cultural, social, economical and political spaces that define the lives of their citizens. On matters of education, every country has taken up an education system that it deems suitable for their citizens. China and Canada are among those countries that have devised education systems that each of the two countries thinks best suit their citizens. The two have embraced a different approach to education that makes significant disparities between the two, and the major ...

During the 1960s and the 1970s, there was high demand for compact, low cost cars in the US. Ford Motor Company was threatened by stiff competition from Volkswagen Beetle. Consequently, it rushed its then newly designed Ford Pinto into the market with blatant disregard for the safety of its customers. The car became notorious for accidents occasioned by rare-end collisions at a speed of over 30 miles per hour. The fuel tank would rupture and burst into flames leading to casualties and in some cases fatalities among the passengers (Tenbrunsel & Bazerman, 2011). It took so long for the decision ...

Global warming consequences have been mainly focused on the impacts they have and will in the future have on the global human population. The less focus is on the impact on the animal and plant species that are even more vulnerable, since they cannot adapt to quick changes as humans can. They are not the main culprit for the climate changes and yet they will suffer the most. One of the animal species that is being threatened by the global climate change are also polar bears that inhabit the polar region. They are playing an important role ...

The research problem will be to investigate whether the patrimonial political systems of Singapore and South Korea are democracies that surpass their liberal Western analogues in terms of national growth and even democratization in some ways. It appears that, contrary to the popular misperception, democracy is not necessarily a lack of restraint and complete discretion or at least a range of freedom like the right to media. Sometimes, states like Singapore being low on resources and facing external threats decide on less liberal norms and behaviors bordering on authoritarianism in specific aspects. Regulated merit-based selection practices and disciplining norms ...

The theme about the relationship between the public employees and the First Amendment to the United States Constitution is as old as the origin of these two concepts is.
According to David Hudson “more than 20 million Americans work for federal, state and local governments.” (Hudson, 1) which represents a substantial part of the American society whose work has a great impact over the normal functioning of all federal, state and local authorities. Along with their official duties they, as ordinary citizens, they have their constitutional rights which sometimes oppose each other.
The question whether the First Amendment denies ...

The Little Fourteen–Year–Old Dancer is an adored impressionist piece sculptured by Edgar Degas. Degas presented the piece at the sixth impressionist exhibition in the spring of 1881, and public exhibition he ever did. Originally named by the artist, Petite Danseuse de Quatorze Ans, the piece has become one of the most acclaimed artworks of well-known bronze casts produced after the artist’s death. She did not attract much admiration in her first appearance. Many know Degas as an artist of dance, and some critics originally dismissed his sculptures, claiming that lacked the quality of good art. Most ...

The Siege of Vicksburg also called Battle of Vicksburg was the zenith of a naval campaign and long land campaign by Union forces to attain a critical strategic position during the period of American Civil War. The president then, Abraham Lincoln, recognized the importance of the town that was located above the Mississippi River. Abraham Lincoln said that the city was very instrumental, and the war was not going to end unless the “key” was in their pockets (Johnston, 2010). Seizing Vicksburg was imperative in severing the Trans-Mississippi Confederacy from the east of Mississippi River. It was to open the river ...

Not very long ago, employees concerned with job security in America’s largest corporations had little other than periodic downturns in the domestic economy to worry about. The idea that jobs could be sent overseas by the thousands seemed to be little more than alarmist political rhetoric. However, the rapid growth in communications technology and the “internationalization” of commercial and financial activities has turned an improbability into reality. Today, the idea of corporate growth has expanded far beyond the confines of one’s country, with significantly more money to be made by approaching merger as an international opportunity, no ...

In the last few decades, the use of social media has taken over peoples’ lives. In fact, it is hard to believe that several years ago there was no Facebook or Twitter. It is worth mentioning that three decades ago, cell phones were only available to the wealthy members of society and the commoners only waited to hear from each other through telegraphs, letters, and other outdated methods. Today, social media sites such as MySpace, Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn as well as virtual world’s such as Second Life, Sims, Club Penguin, and video sites such as YouTube and blogs ...

Research is essential for the advancement of any field of study. Nevertheless, this becomes complicated when the object of the investigation is a human, as there is an accepted guideline that one should not do harm onto a person. In order to assure proper treatment of humans, ethical committees have arisen in many parts of the world, limiting the research that may be done. However, this comes into tension when one also takes into account the notion of liberty, as the two could contradict each other.
In this sense, some would argue that ethics committees should not interfere in ...
