Reciprocity of Marketing & Culture

The growing interdependence of global markets has made a more compelling case for culture as an increasingly significant variable in marketing efforts.

INDIGENOUS RIGHTS IN AFRICA: THEORY AND APPLICATION

Abstract
The question of “indigeneity” is a vital issue in Africa. According to the Commission, all Africans are indigenous to Africa and no particular social formation can claim for the indigenous status. People often talk about ‘Western’ or ‘European’ concept of human rights, and thus compare ‘African’ and ‘Western’ thoughts. This issue occupies an important place in the vast literature that seeks to articulate an African approach towards the rights of the Indigenous people and thus compare such view with the Western concept. Despite the uprising of the consciousness of the African nations, many Africans have not made efforts ...

Introduction

The world is currently experiencing a rapid pace of globalization. Globalization, in general, offers a more positive than negative set of effects to society. It makes countries more interconnected. The actual advantages of this worldwide phenomenon, in fact, come from the international interconnectivity that it creates.
With a more globalized international marketplace, trade between two or more countries regardless of their geographical location becomes a lot easier. At some point, it may also become cheaper as more and more infrastructure projects get developed in anticipation of the emergence of a world that is so interconnected that countries cannot, especially ...

The contemporary art itself means an art that has been created in the post- WWII period. It appeared after the modern art, which started emerging in the pre-war cubist painting as a way of silencing the hostility (Kraus). However, it has come through a hard process of its establishing, starting from the 1900ies and this process continues till nowadays. The contemporary art may be defined as a philosophical art, which has no shape, which has no rules. It is a type of art, which asks – “What is art?”; however, it still remains as a self-defying kind of art. (Dumbadze, ...

PART 1

In the question as to whether the US government should prohibit trade with countries that have poor records on human rights, it becomes apparent from the numerous research materials reviewed that indeed, trade barriers should be put in place, where a country fails to honour its human rights. Although no particular country in the world has a completely clean record on human rights, there are countries that have evidently crossed the line between the imperfect, but allowable human rights and the gross disrespect to human rights that can end up classifying the country as a ‘no go zone’ (Abbott, 2006, p.17), ...

Abstract

Revolution refers to the drastic changes in the governmental institution, which is carried out by the non-institutional forces. According to Theda Skocpol’s model of revolutions, the revolutions begin with the “Crisis of State” that is initiated by diverse international factors including the security and economic competition from the world. This condition of “crisis of state” is augmented by a second factor that involves the “Class Dominance” that identifies that which group will exploit the situation of revolution. These two basic factors bring about the social revolution. This research will highlight that the model elucidated by Skocpol is an appropriate ...
