In a utilitarian’s perspective, questions about ends are concerned with the identification of things that are desirable. For example, the utilitarian doctrine postulates that happiness is desirable. But it has been argued that questions regarding ultimate ends do not admit of proof. All first principles are incapable of proof on account of reasoning alone not only to the first premises of our knowledge but also to our conduct. But since our conduct has more to do with factual matters which appeal to our internal consciousness as well as our senses which are faculties we usually use to judge ...

Protectionism or free trade restriction helps to counteract the rise in unemployment and social tension. Cyclical development of a market economy requires government measures to restrict access to the domestic market for foreign goods and services in the interest of a speedy overcoming of the temporary reduction in demand. However, no regulation of trade is not able to increase the scale of production so we cannot say that restricting trade with foreign countries is a good way to create more jobs in the US, “trade liberalization should reduce wage inequality” (Baker 430). The level of trade restrictions can be ...

The field of health care is an extremely sensitive and critical field. Given the fact the practitioners of this field deal with the lives of people, it is of utmost importance to critically evaluate every decision and action made towards a certain case. This is because a single, small action can either make or break the condition of the patient. Which is why, I believe that the interviewee’s view that marketing food and healthcare products is the same, is actually very naïve. Health care marketing can be similar to marketing other products and services, in the sense ...

Question 1: Slavery not morally wrong until late 18th century

The slavery era was a dark period for the minority groups and especially the African American who were held as slaves. Prior to the 18th Century, slavery was considered normal as the laws by then protected the salve owners and legitimized the actions. Prior to the 18th century, the only groups that were eager and willing to talk against slavery were the Quakers, slaves, and free blacks. The people who advocated for the freedom of the slaves coupled the calls for freedom with colonization, deportation to Africa, Caribbean or to Central America. This school of thoughts was information by ...

Born in 1958 in Shanghai China, Wong pursued graphic design at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University prior to enrolling in the training programs provided by the local television station. He started his career as the screenwriter, initially in television, then in the movies, and established his debut as a director with the 1988 film As Tears Go By, in the prime of Hong Kong movies (Yeh 6). The movie, which had a gangster theme, joined genre conventions with the infrequent visual skill, representing the gift of the formal experimentation, which was still evident in the succeeding work—earning him ...

Neill Blomkamp’s allegorical sci-fi action adventure District 9 manages to fit a number of trenchant themes and issues relating to technology and politics within its unusual structure and audacious tone. Depicting a fictionalized world in which a derelict alien ship floats above Johannesburg, South Africa, with its indigent alien population (colloquially called ‘prawns’) segregated into districts and marginalized by its people, District 9 uses its setting in a powerful way to present a startling critique of the African apartheid that occurred in the late half of the twentieth century. In addition to its social criticisms about apartheid and ...

Worries about a decline in the birth rate are nothing new, at least in many developed nations. As early as 1909, Hoffman made it perfectly clear that a love for babies was not the reason that some in the U.S. fretted over the declining number of births. Rather, it was concern over the decreasing rate of births among “native white married women” while the “rate of reproduction [was] materially higher among the foreign element” (p. 676). Similar concerns are in evidence today in places such as Israel, where the comparatively high rate of births among the Arab population has ...

What is the paternalistic ground for governmental activity and why is it troublesome according to Friedman?

The freedom of men can conflict, because absolute freedom is impossible, because often, one man’s freedom must be limited in order to protect the freedom of others. The freedom of men was always implied in the United States, but women only gained the right to vote at the beginning of the 20th century. The paternalistic ground for government activity is troublesome for liberals, because it is inescapable for any group designated as not responsible. This means men a majority of whom are white, make the decisions related to all other groups of people, with little consideration of the ...

The country has however faced a perpetual trade deficit (Steers, 456-461). Total exports into the country in 2009, for instance, amounted to $49.41 billion whereas the imports were $76.2 billion. In 2014 also, according to the ECI, Romania had an export of $71.4billion compared to $75.6 billion imports.

Background

Ethical leaders encourage their followers to model their behaviours by communicating their standards and use rewards as well as discipline to promote suitable and unsuitable behaviours. Brown et al. (2005), who first quoted the above definition for ethical leadership, had implied implicitly that, the leader’s intent is never ...

The definition of leadership has been argued by many people as dependent on the fact that the leaders might be genetically related or that leadership might be a trait that is acquired from the daily knowledge acquisition.

Although the philosophy of racial and gender equality has, in essence, created “equal education opportunities” for all females, the provision of racial equity has yet to be fully realized. In reality, however, the education and economic gap between Caucasian and African women evinces that the school and professional ...

Theater is thought to have started in the 6th century BC in Athens, as a form of classical entertainment (Goldhill 54). At this time, it was predominantly for entertainment, and also to create a catalogue of historical events, or depiction of mythology.

Public schools offer ideal settings for the dissemination of interventions designed to promote physical activity and life-long healthy eating. As such, schools are the only settings where the majority of children can access the opportunity of consuming healthful meals regularly, being physically active through extracurricular activities, and receiving education on healthy living. Nonetheless, many interventions have been ineffective because they often fail to incorporate environmental factors and system-wide policies that influence the ability of schools, families, and children to alter behavior (Coleman et al., 2012). Although recent investigations have made attempts to address the shortcoming, they have yielded mixed ...
