Essays on Deception

In Soviet Deception in the Cuban Missile Crisis, James Hansen argues that Moscow’s central tenet has always been “to prevent an adversary from discovering Russian intentions by deceiving him about the nature, scope, and timing of an operation,” conceding the idea that there exists a pattern of covert political or militaristic tactics at work in the world. The clandestine affairs nature of world affairs, politics, and strategic military moves between superpowers has always raised curiosity of how individuals act, plan, and engage behaviors that intertwine uncertain outcomes. In the case of the Cuban Missile Crisis, according to the ...

In order for us to discuss academic integrity at “xx University”, we must first understand what it means to be part of a community. In simplistic terms, community is defined as a group of people. Usually this group of people share similar values, governance (laws and expectations), hobbies, interests, live in the same area, etc. We are all members of multiple communities.

What is intriguing about the FDA timeline on the content of sales and drugs is how misleading advertisments effectively persuade people. According to FDA, misleading information must not be tolerated because the people can be easily deceived due to their lack of background information in medicines and drugs. However, the problem is that FDA found out that many people still trusts advertisements despite their lack of medical credibility (“The Bad Ad Program and Prescription Drug Promotion”). It is intriguing enough because even if there are complaints surrounding the advertised drugs, some companies still make ways to turn around the ...

Autonomous State vs. State of Agency

Two opinionated states of affairs, “state of autonomy” and “state of agency” are positioned in distinction to each other as both are entirely dissimilar from each other. The difference in both the state of affairs typically takes place by methodology implemented by the government and perception of the general public about these two supremacy systems. With the initiation of the 19th century, autonomous and state of the agency came into view as a two system of domination. As it is explained in chapter 15 that Hitler and his policies had disturbed the lives of common Germans, his follower's Nazis ...

Even though her works were exemplary, she was little known to the world; after all, Marie de France was not her original name. All her fame came from her distinct poetic works. Information about her birth place remain scanty, however, there is a strong belief that she was French born but raised up in England; all this is disputed for one reason or another (Bloch 160). It is believed that Marie lived in the 12th century. Putting her debatable biographic information aside, her poetic works remain iconic; in fact, they are an everyday inspiration for upcoming poets.

1. The main difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation is that the first type originates from outside of the person’s aspiration, i.e. somebody perform the action just for the sake of pleasure to do it. On the other hand, extrinsic motivation is explained by the aspiration to get a reward or to avoid punishment for an action. 2.

Legal Perspective of Human Trafficking

        According to Pruellage (2015), human trafficking can be regarded as the contemporary version of slavery. The said victims are forced to work without much regards to their will or choices or sexually exploited. The victims likewise view themselves as part of the crime, making it harder to combat human trafficking because the victims do not want to get caught due to the fear for their safety. As such, from a perspective that wishes to end human trafficking, the victims’ cooperation is vital. A uniform international perspective on human trafficking is important in order to effectively defeat human trafficking since ...

“Good Country People”, the 1955 short story written by Flannery O’Connor, delves on the lives of Mrs. Hopewell and her daughter, Joy or Hulga, their maidservant Mrs. Freeman, and the Bible salesman, Manley Pointer.

As such, despite of Hulga’s high educational background she still seems naïve to life’s harsh realities, in that Manley is able to deceive her using his manly charms to eventually steal Hulga’ ...

In the Western world, the Utilitarian theory that happiness derives from the most amount of pleasure minus the least amount of pain, has really taken off in the last 50 years (with advertising suggesting that instant and temporary satisfaction ...

This is a significant aspect that should be applicable even in circumstances where the negotiator is dealing with an individual whose honesty is under a cloud of doubt. As postulated by Chris Provis, giving a warning to the negotiating partner in the effect that ...

More specifically, “food styling” is the process of dressing up a plate to look more appetizing and photograph in a more appealing way.

The latest financial crises experienced not only in the United States but other developed and developing countries were the result of naivety. There was the assumption that the value of real estate and other asset classes ...

Many authors regard their work as being a single standalone piece of art. By this logic, it can be safe to assume that the authors work their literary pieces to stand out against similar genres of works. However, in some cases many different stories end up sharing the same motif and theme.

When forming their stories, authors use society around them to develop their characters, settings, and such so in ...
