Thus we are in need of a criticaltheory to investigate the roots of these developments and examine their historical alternatives and to analyze society in the light of its used and unused or abused capabilities for improving the human condition.Valuejudgments are involved in the theory that human life is worth living, or rather can be and ought to be made worth living, and that in a given society, specific possibilities exist for the amelioration of human life and specific ways and means of realizing these possibilities. But advanced industrial society confronts the critique with a situation that seems to deprive it of its very basis. Contemporary society is capable of containing social change – qualitative change that would establish essentially different institutions, a new direction of the productive process, new modes of human...

...Introduction This is a complex fraud and financial crime that has an element of collusion. The collusion is among individuals, Walt Palvo and his cohorts, within the organization. It is a fraud that involves a controller or sophisticated participant within the organization’s financial reporting structure. Palvo worked at MCI in the carrier’s financial unit and was one of a group of managers responsible for billing and collections for the carrier business segment. This is an organized crime and to a greater extent, a white collar crime, comprised of respected, business and professional men. These executive level individuals worked in concert (collusively) to override the system of internal controls through the sophisticated use of journal entries, other financial reporting choices and through material and unusual transactions. Due to the unique nature of this type of fraud, large dollars are involved and the damage can be devastating. 1. Discuss the internal control weaknesses that existed at MCI that contributed to the commission of this fraud. When complex fraud and financial crimes are involved, as in the case of MCI, the first thing that comes to mind is the internal control structure. This is the primary concern –that the internal controls are generally ineffective in preventing fraud and other financial crimes. MCI is not an exception. The internal control weaknesses that existed at MCI that contributed to the commission of this fraud can first of all be seen in the area...

If your module supervisor in on leave for more than 1 week you may approach ONE other team member for help during your supervisor’s absence. Should you choose this option then you have a responsibility to inform your temporary supervisor of what guidance you have previously been given. Once your original supervisor returns they immediately resume their supervisory role and you should inform them of what advice you have received in their absence. all the best with your assignment Graham 10/6/10 CASE STUDY GUIDELINES FOR NU2285 This assignment should provide evidence of theoretical understanding underpinning practice.

...Feminism and Crime Name: Course: Instructor: Institution: Date of Submission: Introduction Feminism is the belief that men and women are of equal worth and should be treated equally despite the gender. Feminism has evolved from the years. The current generation, Generation Y has a different perspective of females than the former generations. There have been three major waves of feminism evolution. The first wave was in the 1800s, women were not allowed to vote or participate in any public or political opinions. During this time, women demanded their right to vote. The second wave of feminism developed in the 1960s where females of certain marginalized groups (working class women, blacks and prisoners) felt they weren't being treated equally and fairly like men and upper-class women. The civil rights activist fought very much for their rights during this time. However, not a lot resulted during this wave which led to the third wave of feminism evolution. The third wave developed to improve the second wave short comings. This is the new generation of feminists who know their rights and what gender equality is. Society generally favored men hence the need for social movements towards females rights to be heard. Feminism and Criminology Feminist criminology evolved during the time women were being judged on their gender rather than the type they committed. Gender inequality is basically due to men trying to control women and their sexuality. Feminists insist...

...Corporate governance refers to the set of systems, principles and processes by which a company is governed. They provide the guidelines as to how the company can be directed or controlled such that it can fulfil its goals and objectives in a manner that adds to the value of the company and is also beneficial for all stakeholders in the long term. Stakeholders in this case would include everyone ranging from the board of directors, management, shareholders to customers, employees and society. The management of the company hence assumes the role of a trustee for all the others. Corporate governance is based on principles such as conducting the business with all integrity and fairness, being transparent with regard to all transactions, making all the necessary disclosures and decisions, complying with all the laws of the land, accountability and responsibility towards the stakeholders and commitment to conducting business in an ethical manner. Another point which is highlighted in the SEBI report on corporate governance is the need for those in control to be able to distinguish between what are personal and corporate funds while managing a company. Fundamentally, there is a level of confidence that is associated with a company that is known to have good corporate governance. The presence of an active group of independent directors on the board contributes a great deal towards ensuring confidence in the market. Corporate governance is known to be one of the criteria that foreign...
