Business Strategy in the Global Marketplace
International, Multinational, Global and Transnational Corporate Strategies
International, multinational, global and transnational corporate strategies differ in various ways. The various levels of companies employ these strategies in their business operations to maximize their output or to remain in continual business operations. Under multinational strategies, the subsidiaries of the firm in the involved foreign country enjoy strong local autonomies of business regarding decision-making (Nirav, n.d.). Under the global strategies, the governance of the business is central and in a strong manner in order to reap the economies of scale through various global manufacturing and standardized ...

Dixon and Wilkinson’s article “An Alternative Paradigm for Marketing Theory” advances the idea that marketing, as all the sciences, is in a continuous change and transformation, based on older paradigms inserted in new research models for developing an emerging functionalism. The article explain that when “normal science”, enrooted in the accepted paradigms that serve as theories, is challenged, because paradigms that support it are no longer adequate, scientific revolution occurs and older paradigms are updated, and this is how the Kuhn’s Paradigm is described.
Further the article explores Alderson’s General Living System Theory, which supports that ...

In the world of Jane Austen adaptations, Joe Wright’s 2005 film Pride and Prejudice proves itself incredibly innovative in its approach. Prior attempts at adapting Austen works, including Pride, focus on a clean-cut, ornate and incredibly stately world of Victorian England, with upper-class characters spending the entire film in eloquent settings and speaking in decidedly unapproachable manners. Wright, along with screenwriter Deborah Moggach, eschew this aesthetic in order to provide their adaptation of Pride and Prejudice with a more casual, approachable take on the classic Jane Austen romance, complete with a greater emphasis on naturalism, grit and approachability.

In the English-speaking cinematography, 1995 was the year of Jane Austen. As if trying to celebrate the 220th anniversary of the writer, who since the 20th century became to some extent even a cult figure, the filmmakers created just three versions of her novels “Sense and Sensibility”, “Pride and Prejudice” and “Emma”. I like the Jane Austen’s creativity and read almost all her books. I saw a lot of different adaptations of the book “Pride and Prejudice”, and by and large I like all of them. After seeing the film adaptation of “Sense and Sensibility”, directed by Ang ...

Marketing Paradigm - Third Millennium

In the past, the business environment was oriented towards the industry, but a half century ago the focus shifted from industry to firm, underlying the microeconomic approach, which allowed the market evaluation in terms of demand and cost, identifying various conditions that generated elasticity demands (Dixon & Wilkinson, year, p. 62).
This marketing paradigm, therefore, was the incipient conceptualization of the commercial relationship between the business and different customers, wherein the business adapts its offer to various demand levels.
The paradigm identified by Robinson (1933, in Dixon & Wilkinson, 1989, p. 62) as the division of market in sub-markets, ranging ...

Adaptation to the Pace of Change

Change has become the order of the day in present day management. Organizations have to continuously adapt to new challenges and objectives by the day. Change in an organization setting can only be initiated by the management. Managers know the objectives of the organization more than any other individual in the organization. The work force in the organization must be made to adapt to new changes within the shortest time. Therefore, the work force can be compared to the mythical Proteus.However; changes can only be made to give optimal results if they are managed properly. The management has the ...

Literature on the effect of environmental stress caused by changes in the climate is more relevant today than it has been before, especially in the context of global warming (Beniston 2010). Schulte (2014) and Somero (2010) published articles on environmental stress and climate change respectively. Reading the two articles offers an understanding of how the two variables are interrelated and the effect that they have on living organisms. The manner in which the arguments are constructed presents with various positives and negatives. This critique will highlight the positives and negatives with the help of literature from other scholars.

Introduction This paper outlines and in details explains how the modern –day Holmes applies or extends the cinematic concepts borrowed from the early classical conventions of Conan Doyle. The comparison and contrast are crucial in understanding whether changes, extensions or imitation of the previous works have altered or improved the literature. Therefore, this rhetorical analysis is geared towards examining the characters, scenes, settings, plots, themes, and literature style of the two chronologically divided works. Because written texts and TV series are meant to satisfy the target audience, the bottom-line of scenic details is to pass the messages to the ...

The esophagus is simply a tube that transports food to the stomach after being swallowed from the mouth (Cleveland Clinic, 1). Swallowing ensures that epiglottis in the throat is closed hence the food moves down the esophagus, preventing it from moving down through windpipe to the lungs. The contraction and relaxation of the muscles within the esophagus enables the food to move down hence this serves as its anatomical adaptation. This paper traces the pathway of food from the esophagus to the stomach, indicating the anatomical adaptations of each organ involved (Cleveland Clinic, 1).

Genetic counselling is defined as the information, guidance, and support provided by a genetic counsellor or medical geneticist to an individual, a couple, or a family about a genetic condition. The information may help the client (affected individual or family) understand how a gene variant underlies an observed phenotype, disease prognosis, and the probability of transmission to progeny. Apart from information to help the client make informed decisions about lifestyle, treatment, and reproduction, a counsellor provides psychosocial support to minimize the adverse psychological, intrafamilial, and social consequences of genetic testing. Therefore, genetic counselling has an educational as well as ...

Modern research apparatuses indicate the adaptation of the old fashion to the contemporary clothing. These resources provide us with the historical images presenting the previous dress models that the current world adopted. The 19th century happened to be a significant period, which marked radical changes in the manner of dressing and fashion, as a whole. During the 1820s and 1830s, women’s dresses took a gradual shift to reveal the actual shape of an individual’s body. The waistline excavated, thereby changing to a lower position. Several trends ...

Multi-various Religious thoughts and language usages existing in developing nations are an issue leading to conflicts. The Mahayana Buddhism and Shintoism predominantly followed religions in Japan in its pathway has prescribed the mind to apply moral values in every walk of life; whether it is a work place, family or the society.
The concept of the Japanese word ‘Wa’ advocates the mind in principles of harmony in togetherness, to keep away from the selfish individualistic thoughts obstructing the good values in ‘team spirit’ and productive ‘team work’ strengths. Likewise, words like ‘Kao’, ‘Omoiyari’ are positive thoughts promoting practices relating ...

Introduction

Metatheatre is a word that was first used by Lionel Abel in 1963; he introduced a new way of and look at post modern-drama, which at the very least adds more language to the to the ones that are usually spoken in theatres. The description of Meta itself constitutes a meaning describing above or after and about or upon. On the other hand, Samuel Beckett, an Irish Dramatist changed the traditional drama as shown in his work in “Waiting for Godot”. The change in his style was due to his dissatisfaction of the earlier dramatist. Beckett’s work featuring the characters Vladimir ...

Management is about making decision. Just as there are different styles of leadership, there are different styles for making decision. Making a decision not only involves quantitative analysis but it also calls for qualitative analysis. Decision making is defined as mental processes that result in a course of action or a given opinion among several options that have been presented. Every decision made by a manager bears in mind that there will be a certain outcome in the future. There are various factors that come into play when making a decision but these factors can be divided into two categories: quantitative and qualitative factors. The ...

The establishment of the modern national education system in Malaysia is one of the major effects of the post-colonial development within the nation (Zohar, 2004). During the British colonial rule in Malaysia, education system could be considered socially and academically narrow since it did not confine multicultural dynamics of the Malaysian society as well as the demographics of the nation. After the colonial period in the 1950s, the education system reform was implemented on the nation and segregated linguistic ethnic streams which comprise their population. The period of the end of the colonial rule in Malaysia also marks the ...

Critical Thinking and Language

Critical Thinking and Language

Efficient communication implies structural knowledge of a common communication language, but also the understanding, through empathic abilities, of the non – verbal communication: perceiving the gestures, tics, mimic of the face, expressions or even silence as sources of communication. Language is directly linked with critical thinking because in a communication process the actors involved in the process need to think to what they want to say to their communication partners, to filter the information and based on what they understood to create an answer. This process implies structuring words, based on a critical thinking process. The communication actors need ...

Mathematics is a creative and reasoning activity engaging generalization and abstraction to recognize, define and use relationships and pattern. Math’s symbolic nature gives a powerful, concise and precise means of communication. Mathematical concepts have progressed across all humanities from ancient times and are always advancing. It is essential to technological and scientific development in many arenas of endeavor. Moreover, to its applied usage, learning mathematics is a valuable quest in its own right, giving opportunities for challenge, originality, and leisure (Board of Studies NSW, 2012). To learn mathematics, students must be taught with a curriculum or syllabus that gives skills, knowledge, and ...

Analysis of Shakespearean Plays

Ethnicity is often a source of conflict in most aspects of society; Victorian era notwithstanding. This is evident in two of Shakespeare’s dark characters (pun not intended) Aaron in Titus Andronicus and Othello. Considering the context of racial discrimination during this time, it may be safely assumed that both characters suffered prejudiced treatment. However, the use of ethnicity as a plot device differed with these two characters. One is used literally to show the racial discrimination suffered by the character and trigger the consequences that followed while the latter is a figurative representation of abstract ideas.

In the play of Titus ...

Jean Piaget's cognitive theory is an extrapolation of developmental psychology in children that explains the stages through which children develop. The theory is defined by a tripartite composition of; schemas, adaptation processes, and stages of development. Schemas, the building blocks of knowledge, are the settings of the brain for absorption of knowledge, a kind of a page where a child writes new information. Adaptation processes include assimilation and accommodation of information, whereby, assimilation happens when new information can be easily absorbed by an existing schema. In the case where new information cannot be absorbed in an existing schema, the ...

The importance of primates for evolutionary theory can hardly be overstated. The applications of the traits – the foundation of the distinction between primates and other organisms – are widespread and profound in anthropology as well as basic biology. Primates are a diverse class of organisms that share a suite of derived traits (characteristics primates inherited from their common primate ancestor) that separates them from other organisms (Ryan). For instance, primates share several inherited primeval traits with other animals from a distant mammalian common ancestor such as having body hair (fur) and being warm-blooded and even more distant terrestrial vertebrate predecessors ...

Plastic surgery can be viewed differently depending on the person considering the surgery. Some people like to think of it as a right to adjust their body the way that they would like or see as ideal because they can. This is called viewing plastic surgery as an assertion of agency. In this view, the choice to get plastic surgery is more about “asserting power” (Webster). Some doctors believe that patients who wish to change themselves have this right as long as they are making an educated decision (Braun). Others, however, view plastic surgery as a menace and a ...

New theoretical approaches to the study of history have led to a major shift in the way we perceive political history leading social scientists to question the findings based on the old approaches.
The new approaches have revolutionized our study of history, further proving that history in itself is not merely a study of the past but is also a living art subjected to the changes that occur within those affected by it. These new approaches have evolved perhaps due to the need to ensure that even generations that did not partake in the major historical events of the ...

The terms ‘Organizational Learning’ and ‘Learning Organization’ sound so similar. Both involve learning. Learning organization is the process to change. Organizational learning is having the process and strategies and implementing change throughout an organization. Thus the former becomes the plan, to which the latter is the action.
According to Fiol, (1985) Organizational Learning is “the process of improving actions through better knowledge and understanding”. Where as, an organisation that facilitates the learning of all its members and continuously transforms itself (Peddler, Boydell & Burgoyne, 1997) is a learning organisation. “Learning organization can develop structures and strategies to maximise the learning ...

Since the existence of Homo sapiens around 180,000 years ago, human activities have been on the rise most of them with diverse effects on the environment. Human activities are responsible for almost all the loss in biodiversity throughout the globe (Southeast Asian Affairs 2002, pp 56). Biodiversity is not only unevenly spread across the Earth but also follows complex processes determined by the current changes in environment, global warming, evolutionary history of the planet and geology. Global eco-regions recognize that whilst coral reefs and tropical forests harbor most biodiversity there are manifestations in boreal and temperate regions, mountain ...

According to conventional wisdom, the more the diagnosis, and especially early diagnosis, the better health and medical care treatment and management one is likely to receive, and in return the less the mortality rates. Apparently, this is not the case, according to one Dr. Gilbert Welch et al, in his book, ‘over- diagnosed making people sick in the pursuit of health’ who believes that more and more diagnosis leads to excessive treatment and that can actually have a negative impact on the patient’s health. This is because it makes people who are healthy feel less healthy and this can ...

The essence of leadership can be summed up as forming good relationships with the people you lead – both between members and with members and the leader. Collaboration is the essence of good leadership, utilizing everyone’s strengths and diminishing their weaknesses. No strategy for effective leadership is the same between two organizations or two leaders – the attitudes and strengths of each member of the team has to be taken into account, as well as the objectives and efficiencies of the organization itself.
My definition of leadership works well with good followship, which involves having members of a group who ...

According to this article, it is impossible to establish a relationship between intelligence, race and genetics. This article argues that scientists who have found this relationship did not base it on scientific analysis, but on folk taxonomies. Many scientists fail to agree on the definition of intelligence, and this, further compounds the idea of finding a relationship. Race on the other hand, is not a scientific term and does not have a scientific definition. Finding the relationship between other constructs and race would therefore not serve any scientific purpose, but rather social ends.
So far, scientists have not conclusively managed to link ...

4. The changes that the author refers to in the quote “and most men have yet to really adapt to the changes in women” center on the different roles that women play in the household nowadays. Women are the breadwinners now just as much as the men are; they have forsaken traditional homemaker roles and have more demanding lives. Thus I think the author is right. Women must balance work and family life so they are more at pressure to meet all of their responsibilities as best they can. Yet a lot of men cannot handle this aspect of marriage ...

Mack and the boys from Cannery Row place little value on extravagant material possessions. They possess no ambition other than to have very basic shelter and food; they do not compete with each other or town residents to accumulate goods or social status. The real estate salespeople in Glengarry Glen Ross, on the other hand, thrive on workplace competition to acquire possessions that will signify their success. If one accepts ...

Biological evolution is termed as any genetic change in a population that is passed on over successive generations. These genetic variations are not consistent as they may be large or small, prominent or not noticeable at all. To sum it up, biological evolution highlights how life has changed over time.

Abstract

Plasmodium falciparum is the parasite responsible for the deadly disease, malaria. The parasite is transmitted through the injection of sporozoites into the human blood stream. These sporozoites are transported in the blood stream to the liver. The sporozoites invade the hepatocytes and differentiate into merozoites. The merozoites invade the RBCs of the host; starting the blood stage of infection. The trophozoite stage ingests and degrades approximately 80% of the hemoglobin in the host cell. The hemoglobin is broken down into peptides due to enzymatic action by a metalloprotease and cysteine and aspartic proteases. Haematin is first released as a byproduct of ...

Describe the Hemoglobin Digestive Process

P. falciparum, is the parasite responsible for the malaria, a disease that causes approximately one million deaths annually. It undergoes the process of erythrocytic schizogony which is responsible for the clinical manifestations of malaria. The trophozoite ingests and degrades approximately 80% of the hemoglobin in the host cell (Brayl 2005). As the trophozoite continues to develop, its endolysosomal system takes up the cytoplasm of the host cell using cytosomes which contains host hemoglobin. Cytosomes are formed by an invagination formed from the PVM (parasitophorous vacuolar membrane) and PPM (parasite plasma membrane) from which transport vesicles are pinched off. These vesicles ...
