A state has been perceived as a vital component of social and economic development. Most people regard effective administration as a main agent in the implementation, as well as the formulation of development programs. In the 1950s, several developing countries embraced various mechanisms for delivering political and economic benefits to people. This led to the expansion of public administration (Shafritz, Russell, & Borick, 2015). Additionally, the States took a leading role in accelerating development. The theories of public administration also developed during this time. However, tracing the point at which theory and practice of public administration began is not possible. ...

Product Introduction and the Market

The CSR Pyramid encapsulates the four levels of responsibilities that a business organization must ideally ...

Social Responsibility of Business

Introduction The belief advanced by Milton Friedman connotes that the directors of a business must engage in business actions that bring only profits to the given business shareholders. In reference to notions of business ethics, the executive management of a business corporation must earn profits for the business owners within the rules of the game. Further, about corporate social responsibility, the business management mandate is to conduct business activities in such a way that they do not commit business resources to social responsibility activities, like charity, that have the potential of reducing business profits (Watson and Prevos, 2009).

While sexuality remains a talking point in the modern society, many people are still being discriminated based on their sexual identities. It is essential to note that several people have become victims of racial discrimination as well as heterosexism in the modern society. While many people have fought to change the perception of the offenders, the battle against lesbianism is still alive in the society as many individuals do not consider it a cultural norm. Culturally acceptable codes of behavior have dictated that a particular behavior has to be observed by the members of the society to help nurture ...

Although the times of oppression related to gender, class, and race seem to have gone by, the issues of discrimination still matter in our country even nowadays when people finally seem to understand that diversity should be celebrated.

This paper focuses on three issues related to how the subject should be dealt with in the modern context: intersection, or overlapping of different ingredients ...

Child neglect and abuse are serious issues that may induce lasting adverse effects on the victims. In the US, nearly five kids die daily at the hands of abusers (Child Help, 2012). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2010), over 3 million cases of child neglect and abuse were filed in 2008. As the numbers continue to rise, however, the incidences reported in nursing appear to decline. In a review of cases of child mistreatment reported by healthcare providers, researchers mentioned that twenty-one percent of all suspected cases were never reported (Eads, 2013). Thus, child ...

Understanding society, and indeed the world, is a complex task that is unlikely to ever be fully achieved. There are various social theories that work to explain the workings of society, three of which are structural functionalism, conflict theory, and symbolic interactionism. The structural functional approach works on the idea that society is made up of systems that are beneficial to all concerned. However, there are substantial problems with this theory, as it does not acknowledge that certain structures need to change even if they seem to be working for the majority. Conflict theory asserts that society functions based ...

In turn, companies feel inclined to legitimate their practices to society. The interest is connected with the moral aspect of pursuing profit and implementing regulations of companies’ activities. Such practices reveal the idea of corporate social responsibility (CSR) which presents a complex area as it centers on issues of humanity, sustainability, and environmental responsibility (Crane, Matten, and Spence, 2013, pp. 3-4; Fleming, Roberts, and Garsten, 2013, p. 340; Wright, 2010, p. 1).

Theories of Religion

The Functionalism theory was coined by Durkheim whereby the theory views religion from a societal platform based on the way it influences the thinking and behaviour of people.

Religion is viewed as an aspect that fosters good health and society continuation in general. It is a platform that helps societies to affirm their common beliefs and cultural values on a regular basis while also ensuring that societal order and cohesion is enhanced. The essay looks into ...

The use of social categories to rationalizing or justifying the treatment of one group over another In America before the 1880, social categories were the norm. They found use in rationalizing and justifying the treatment of one group over another. An excellent example of this is evident in slavery, as well as, the slave trade that thrived during this period. Social categories were used to justify the need for Africans drawn from Africa into the new world. It is estimated that about 10 to 11 million African slaves were drawn from Africa and brought to the new world in ...

In perhaps the most bizarre outcome of the Second World War, the removal of the German-led Axis Powers as a common enemy paved the way for the emergence of the capitalist and the communist ideologies that created the Western and Eastern bloc respectively. The unity witnessed between the Soviet Union and the United States as part of the Allied Powers ended with World War II as the former claimed a lead in advocating communism while the latter supported capitalism in the name of democracy (Foner, 2014, p.709). The different stands plunged the two nations and their allies into the ...

Abstract Keywords: exercise, nutrition, physiotherapy, obesity, diet.

These forms of immigration can be seen as quite different to each other at face value; however, when looked at in ...

My perspective

Conflicts between moral norms and public health goals are indeed commonplace and often hard to avoid. The disparities between the goals of public health and the societal expectations often times collide leading to medical dilemmas amongst medics. Evidence of such conflicts is portrayed by the existence of bioethics discipline through which medics mediate moral dilemmas in the course of their practice.

In functionalism, the society, and its inhabitants are significant requirements for particular services and products. Therefore, there is a need for a government and justice system, and the production of services and goods is also important. In the same respect, interactionism ...

Organizations, whether for-profit or not-for-profit, need to plan strategically so as to fulfill their mandate, achieve their mission, and create public value.

Effectively, they can only achieve such through strategic planning. The essence of ...

The debate on whether minors should be held in the same stature as adults for equal crimes is one that has been raging on for a long period. The debate is occasioned by the enticing argument that any form of societal and criminal misconduct should always be tackled by undertaking tougher punishments on offenders regardless of age. However, applying the same metric of punishment to juveniles as adults is not the solution. It is especially the case considering that research indicates that minors that receive adult sentences become more likely repeat offenders as opposed to those that go through ...

Racial inequality has always been rampant in many societies, as it is reflected in white privilege seen not only in the United States but also in Canada, Australia, Israel, and in many countries in Asia and Africa.

However, being a social issue, other members of the society, specifically religious leaders, argue against abortion. For those against abortion, they say that it is only ethical not to terminate the child’s life as that may ...

People behave the way they do because of personality that is determined by genes that are inherited from the parents. Besides the inherited characteristics, the environment has a significant role in the shaping of an individual's behavior. For instance, the behavior of a child is determined by his upbringing before age five. Also, peer pressure has a role in shaping the behavior of an individual. It is important to note that some of the traits either inherited or from the environment can be reinforced positively or negatively so as to develop the personality of the child.
