Research Hypotheses to be Tested………………………………………………… Sample Populations/Subjects………………………………………………………. Procedures and Research Methods of Proposed Study…………………………….. Ethical Considerations of Proposed Study………………………………………….. References………………………………………………………………………….4 Chapter I: Introduction Statement of the Problem For anyone that is familiar with Canadian politics, especially in the Canadian Senate, corruption is a common theme. Richard Gwyn proposed that Canada’s political integrity was near perfect up until 1975, where political transgressions became prominent in the news. What Gwyn fails to note is the many smaller transgressions that have surfaced prior to 1975, which may not fall into the category of noteworthy (Gibbons & Rowat, 1975). The empirical evidence that must be stated with response to Canada’s political corruption is what is considered by many to be political integrity. What questions must also be answered; are what is considered shabby politics? Is Canada’s political integrity really as spotless as it seems, or are some transgressions overlooked because of what some people actually consider corruption? Purpose of the Proposed Research Study The proposed study will examine what citizens really consider to be political corruption. A sample population will be given a questionnaire...

...TOPIC: Impact of Different Cartoon Shows on the Academic Performance of Grade Seven Pupils Cartoons: A cartoon is a form of two-dimensional illustrated visual art. While the specific definition has changed over time, modern usage refers to a typically non-realistic or semi-realistic drawing or painting intended forsatire, caricature, or humor, or to the artistic style of such works. An artist who creates cartoons is called a cartoonist. The term originated in the Middle Ages and first described a preparatory drawing for a piece of art, such as a painting, fresco, tapestry, or stained glass window. In the 19th century, it came to refer to humorous illustrations in magazines and newspapers, and in the early 20th century and onward it referred to comic strips and animated films. Author Unknown. Cartoons . Retrieved September 1, 2004, from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartoon Television Viewing has been found to affect the way children think about various occupations and their beliefs about how one should behave in order to succeed in life. Heavy viewers, for instance, are more likely to believe that self confidence is of great importance. They are also most likely to pay attention to the outward signs of social status and to agree with statements such as “You can tell how important a man is from the way he dressed.” In general, heavy viewers are more stereo typed in their thinking mas media refer more frequently to specific reasons why a person would behave in a particular...

Khalil Al-Hyari, Muhammed Alnsour and Ghazi Al-Weshah 155 Al-Balqa’ Applied University, Al-Salt, Jordan, and Mohamed Haffar Received 28 March 2011 Accepted 8 June 2011 Brunel University, Uxbridge, UK Abstract Purpose – In a constantly changing and increasingly globalised world, religions still play a significant role in influencing social and consumer behavior. The purpose of this paper is to develop a conceptual model that explores the link between religious beliefs and consumers’ boycotts towards particular products. Certain important concepts are linked to boycott, these include: conspicuous consumption of global brands, animosity and country of origin. Design/methodology/approach – First, a critical literature review on empirical consumer animosity, conspicuous consumption, religion, and consumption studies is undertaken. Second, qualitative techniques are used to collect the primary data. This is undertaken with reference to the case study of boycotting of the international Danish brands in Saudi Arabia, in order to highlight the relative emphasis of each of the factors that may influence consumer purchase behaviour of global brands. Findings – The findings of this study show that there is a strong relationship and a clear link between religiosity in Arabic/Islamic collectivist cultures and consumer behaviour (mainly boycotting). It also shows that consumers in such societies are collectively influenced by these factors when formulating their purchase...

...Chapter 16 Chapter Review Questions 1. The American economy thrived because of federal involvement, not the lack of it. How did the federal government actively promote industrial and agricultural development in this period? High tariffs which prevented competition, granted land to Railroad companies, removed Indians for farmers and mining company 2. Why were railroads so important to America’s second industrial revolution? What events demonstrate their influence on society and politics as well as the economy? Spurred by private investment and massive grants of land and money by federal, state, and local governments, the number of miles of railroad track in the US tripled between 1860 and 1880 and tripled again by 1920, opening vast new areas to commercial farming and creating truly national market for manufactured goods, essential elements of a modern industrial economy. The railroads created five transcontinental lines and four time zones throughout the nation. 3. Why did organized efforts of farmers, workers, and local reformers largely fail to achieve substantive change in the Gilded Age? In order to achieve substantive change in the Gilded Age, farmers, workers, and local reformers sought to bring up protests and strikes; however, the government would respond with force in attempt to prevent further labor difficulties and keep the focus on local corporations. Unions were crushed by big industrialists with force rather than to seek compromise, which effected the...

...immoral information. The paper tends to find the historical background of the internet censorship in Pakistan holding the precautionary measures taken by PTA and how the religious values are protected by blocking various anti-Islamic sites.

Introduction Censorship is the act or policy of omitting the obscene, corrupt and politically dangerous content form the books, movies/ films etc. (Wikipedia) Internet censorship is to restrict every type of content that includes immoral and offensive approach. (Wikipedia) Till 2010 in Pakistan, people had the open and unrestricted access to every kind of religious, political, social and sexual escalating content on the internet. The websites offering the critical content against Pakistani government and military are also banned. Pakistan government has not really an effective blocking system but though it has restricted some sites to protect the security of internet. (Sohail, 2007) PTCL (Pakistan Telecommunication Company Ltd) took an initiative in April 2003, to restrict the anti-Islamic and Pornographic sites, whereas it also worked on the banning of blasphemous sites on the internet to protect the religion.

...American mascot. Audience: The president of the professional sports team, president of the college or university, or local school board (all with Native American mascots) Situation: Recently Houston ISD joined a growing list of organizations that no longer allows the use of Native American names as mascots for their teams or school. Stanford University, for example, changed its mascot from the Indian to a redwood tree in 1972, and others have followed suit after an NCAA ban and public outrage over what is considered by some to be ethnically offensive stereotypes that belittle Native Americans. Others believe that these names are embraced by fans who are honoring the heritage and history of the American Indian. Your challenge is to review all of the documents in the library and determine whether Native American representations should or shouldn’t be used as team mascots. You must convince your audience of your position by using evidence from at least three of the resources in the document...

...PA R T B go online Go online to to find more case studies. CASE STUDY B Crisis management in international markets: ‘least said, soonest mended?’ John Knight, Department of Marketing, University of Otago and Bradley Mitchell, Inveratek Group Ltd 347 BACKGROUND An inevitable reality of doing business in the modern world is that crises recognise no boundaries (Fink 1986). A crisis management strategy needs to be part of the overall corporate strategy of any company operating internationally. Our chaotic times have led to some spectacular commercial crises. Sometimes these have been of companies’ own making through carelessness. A well-known example is the action of McDonald’s in promoting its sponsorship of the 1994 football World Cup by printing the flags of all competing nations on disposable packaging: the name of Allah is on the Saudi flag, and deep offence was caused by the fact that this was to be thrown away with the packaging (Starrett 1995). At other times crises have been caused by events completely outside of the control of the company. Examples of the latter include the deliberate product tampering of Tylenol products, leading to deaths by poisoning in the USA, and the massive product recall of Coca-Cola products in Belgium resulting from what appears to be a case of mass hysteria (Johnson and Peppas 2003). Furthermore, companies in the midst of a crisis may not be able to control the behaviour of others, but with proper planning and management the...

...Interestingly, the Soviet declaration of war against the Japanese is not mentioned in this recapitulate. These successes had an unforeseen consequence for the newly founded Air Force; generals had inflated expectations that influenced Washington, where political leaders worried that strategic bombing could provide amply propaganda opportunities to the enemy (p6). However, this was the exact goal of the USAF at the start of the Korean War. According to Crane, close air support did not influence the enemy’s decision making, and despite outcry by elements of the army, airmen wanted air interdiction and strategic bombing (p28). Friction between General MacArthur and General LeMay appeared, MacArthur only wanted to attack military targets, while LeMay pushed for targeting city centers. In LeMay’s opinion, this would show the Communists the seriousness of United Nations intervention and Crane pointed out that in LeMay’s defense; eventually aircraft...

...Propaganda was used by both sides in the Second World War to boost morale at home and demoralize the enemy. Recognizing the power of propaganda as a war strategy, the United States established the Office of War Information (O.W.I) in 1942. OWI was designed to “boost wartime production at home and undermine enemy morale in Europe, Asia, and Africa (Total War: The Sportpalast Speech). OWI photographers spread propaganda through photographs of home front life and women in the workforce to boost patriotism. The entertainment industry emphasized patriotism by focusing Americans on the war effort. Movies and cartoons were part of the war propaganda (Total War: The Sportpalast...
