world”. And in the Pan American Union, there are phrases like “deficiency in their physical and intellectual development” and “a preferential right to the protection of the public authorities”. In the national context, the first designation given to the minorities was “Non-christian tribes” or “Tribal Filipinos” during the American period. The use of the words “tribes” and “tribal” outright reflects its view of the minorities as “inferior”. Moreover, it makes it clear, that the use of “non christian”
the actual definition of social responsibility lies in the fact that not everyone can fully agree whether one action is socially responsible or not. Even today, it would be incredibly hard to state a definition that can be certainly accepted in the academic world. This issue might even go as far as saying: “We have looked for a definition and basically there isn’t one” (Jackson and Hawker, 2001). This extent is not quite the issue, but the problem lies in the variety of many definitions which are
“national development” and “sate building”. The differences between these terms are reviewed by comparing previous scholarly works. We shall also look at how the notion of “nation building” in India has differed from its Western equivalent. The paper covers a period of seventeen post-independence years (1947-1964) due to the fact that these were the years of Jawaharlal Nehru’s tenure as Prime Minister. We begin by examining the ideologies which led to the construction of various media policies in India
LITERATURE REVIEW AND THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK This chapter begins by providing a definition and understanding of the phenomena under study. The theoretical framework which differs considerable from all other reviewed works is then considered before proceeding to examine existing literature on the extent to which globalization impacts economic growth. 2.1 Defining Globalization and its Dimensions The concept of globalization has deep historical roots. The notion of an initial global economy is ascribed
interest, implies the recognition of territorial diversity and the need to build on this diversity in order to generate development. Territorial cohesion relates fundamentally to policy coherence as it is related to territory; it is an added value of cohesion policy. The ratification of Lisbon Treaty represents the moment when “Territorial Cohesion” has been added as an official policy aim of the EU to its previous aims of economic and social cohesion. Thus, the process of
Definition of Strategic Human Resource Development (SHRD) There are different versions on the HRD definition with much debate depending on the areas of activities (Garavan et al., 1995). The lack of frontiers and statistics factors is unable to firmly determine the HRD field definition process as suggested by McGoldrick et al. (2002), sharing similar sentiment as Blake (1995) who states that it is not possible to define HRD simply in ‘one box’. While current problems may resolve by one-way approach
survival and growth in the national economic evolution. Entrepreneurial activities and technological innovation have been widely recognized as crucial factors for national economic development in economies. The theorist Joseph Schumpeter [1] was praised as the “prophet of innovation” [2] since his theory of Economic development has been published. This theory was considered as the first step in the origination of theoretical instruments and concepts which examined the real economic world. The Schumpeterian
What is a disability? The Union of the Physically Impaired Against Segregation (UPIAS) was an early disability rights organisation in the United Kingdom. It established the principles that led to the development of the social model of disability (Finkelstein 2001; Barnes 2003; Barnes 2004, cited in Cameron 2010; Barnes & Halmstad 2009; Carson 2009) define: “Impairment: lacking part or all of a limb, organism or mechanism of the body. Disability: the disadvantage or restriction of activity caused
The origin of the hate crime policy could be traced back to the social movements during the 70s and 80s. The Civil Rights movement, the Women's movement, the LGBTQ movement, the victim's rights movement and many others, are significant in shaping the hate crime policies in the United States. The initial purpose of the statutes is to protect those that are victims of a bias crime, "a crime committed as an act of prejudice" (Lawrence, 2002). This condition also applies to individuals that are targeted
This chapter takes a look at core theories and methodology for the logic behind this study. It takes into consideration theoretical background on human resource management, empowerment, work life balance, competence development and employee commitment. Armstrong M (2006) defines Human Resource Management (HRM) as a strategic and coherent approach to the management of an organization’s most valued assets - the people working there who individually and collectively contributes to the achievement of
