Kirkland, Instructor This summary will be addressing issues that involves resolving international legal disputes, practical considerations in taking legal actions, factors that will work for granting sublicensing agreements and customs and laws of an organization and local custom and laws. The issues involved in resolving legal disputes in international disputes are legal, ethical and cultural issues. The practical considerations of taking legal actions against a foreign business partner would be to respect the laws of that country because the laws of the United States are only enforced in the United States. A Forum Selection Clause should also be considered as well. The factors that could work against CadMex’s decision to grant sublicensing agreements would be lawsuits. That would leave the company and even the workers fully liable for any negligence. Which should prevail when the local customs and laws conflict with customs and laws of an organization operating abroad would be the local customs and laws of that country would prevail.

It's Week 1, and we're set to go. This course is perhaps a little different from the typical MBA course. Rather than studying the internal workings of a business, we shall instead delve into the legal, political, and social cultures of our city, nation, and world and see how these affect everything we do in business. We shall study the gamut of legal concepts, from product liability, to civil rights, to intellectual property rights, to antitrust and consumer protection. Underpinning all of these legal concepts, however, will be two foundational aspects: (a) the ethical issues within, and (b) the "world view" without. Milton Friedman, Immanual Kant, Blanchard and Peale, Laura Nash . . . these are just a few of the names of ethicists and...

...Criminology & Criminal Justice © 2006 SAGE Publications (London, Thousand Oaks & New Delhi) and the British Society of Criminology. www.sagepublications.com ISSN 1748–8958; Vol: 6(1): 39–62 DOI: 10.1177/1748895806060666 A desistance paradigm for offender management FERGUS McNEILL Universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde, UK Abstract In an influential article published in the British Journal of Social Work in 1979, Anthony Bottoms and Bill McWilliams proposed the adoption of a ‘non-treatment paradigm’ for probation practice. Their argument rested on a careful and considered analysis not only of empirical evidence about the ineffectiveness of rehabilitative treatment but also of theoretical, moral and philosophical questions about such interventions. By 1994, emerging evidence about the potential effectiveness of some intervention programmes was sufficient to lead Peter Raynor and Maurice Vanstone to suggest significant revisions to the ‘non-treatment paradigm’. In this article, it is argued that a different but equally relevant form of empirical evidence—that derived from desistance studies—suggests a need to re-evaluate these earlier paradigms for probation practice. This reevaluation is also required by the way that such studies enable us to understand and theorize both desistance itself and the role that penal professionals might play in supporting it. Ultimately, these empirical and theoretical insights drive us back to the complex interfaces between technical and moral...

...1.1 *** introduction to the course Communication Notion The subject of communication is a fundamental one for business communication, because that is exactly the purpose, and the central concept. “Communication” goes from the lat. communication – message, transmission; communicare – to make common, to link, and to talk. The term communication is used for description of diverse processes, connected with information transmission, and for the verification of presence or absence of a relation between two subjects (systems). COMMUNICATION – the exchange of meanings between individuals through a common system of symbols. The subject of communication has concerned scholars since the time of ancient Greece. Until modern times, however, the topic was usually subsumed under other disciplines and taken for granted as a natural process inherent to each. In 1928 the English literary critic and author I.A. Richards offered one of the first--and in some ways still the best--definitions of communication as a discrete aspect of human enterprise: Communication takes place when one mind so acts upon its environment that another mind is influenced, and in that other mind an experience occurs which is like the experience in the first mind, and is caused in part by that experience. Richards' definition is both general and rough, but its application to nearly all kinds of communication--including those between humans and animals (but excluding machines)--separated...
