...Comparison and Contrast between the Disciplined and Controlled Societies Sociology Theorizing Introduction According to Deleuze disciplinary societies existed in the 18th and the 19th centuries. He explains that these societies were located by Foucault. Deleuze explained that the disciplinary societies were much evidenced in the 20th century which according to him was the time when the practice reached its peak. According to him in this system the individuals were operating enclosed environments. Such environments were having the laws to be followed closely by the people. These enclosed environments included the family, the school, the barracks, and the factory and the hospital that people would visit from time to time. Still another enclosed environment was the prison which was seen as an analogical model of laborers who were treated as prisoners. He uses the exclamations of the heroine of Rossellini’s Europa ’51 whom at the sight of some laborers was reported to have thought that she was seeing convicts. Analyzing such environments enclosure in the context of a factory Foucault explained that the major goals of a factory is to concentrate, distribute in space, order in time, compose a force of production within the dimensions of both space and time to ensure grater effect than that of the sum of its component forces. Comparison and Contrast of the Disciplined Society with Controlled Society In discipline societies an individual passes through different enclosures...

...Question 1 With reference to the case study, it is noted that various countries were involved in the Blackberry controversy. Frustration arose for countries like India, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Indonesia as the government considered the phone and system to be a national security threat due to strong encryption of the Blackberry system that guaranteed customers privacy. Local governments had difficulty to intercept or monitor conversations (regarding illegal or terrorists activities), as the information did not pass through domestic servers. The case study points out that the UAE had intentions to ban Blackberry in 2010 following arrests of several youths that organized a peaceful protest using Blackberry Messenger. It was believed that the attackers of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh, senior leader of Hamas (Palestinian militant group), in Dubai, is allegedly a team of Israeli intelligence agency in 2010 communicated securely on their Blackberry phones. The regulators in UAE argued that some features operated by Blackberry fell outside the country’s laws, therefore causing judicial, social and national security concerns. This overshadowed the initial considerations of the freedom protection of the population. Saudi Arabia intentions to ban the Blackberry arose as government claimed that the Blackberry services did not meet the regulatory requirements and posed a national security threat. The country, which is RIM’s biggest Middle East market, also believed that...

...Chapter 10 Why employees frequently unionize? It is because they feel that individually, they will be unable to exercise the power regarding their employment conditions at any particular employer. The treatment and benefits they receive depend in large part on how their employers view their worth of the organization. It should be pointed out that some employees join unions because of the union shop provisions of the collective agreement that require employees to join as a condition of their employment. Others join because the employer is a closed shop—only members of a union will hire—or because they choose to under an open shop provision. Even when forced to join, many employees eventually accept the concept of unionism. The sections that follow look at some of the more specific reasons people unionize and what role and/or organization plays in the unionization process. Whether or not, a union can become the bargaining agent for a group of employees will be influenced by the employees’ degree of dissatisfaction, if any, with their overall employment conditions. For example, employees may feel their concerns about health and safety are ignored or they may be required to wear uniforms without being reimbursed for the cost. It will also depend on whether the employees perceive the unions as likely to be effective in improving these conditions. Employee may seek unionization when they perceive that managerial practices regarding promotion, transfer, shift assignment, or other...

...Nowadays, with the economic crisis going around the world, being a profitable company is hard, but being a profitable and social responsible corporation is even harder. In the Barrick mining company case, one may notice there are many problems confronting the firm ranging from property vandals, trespass, sexual assaults, and deaths to fraudulence conducted by Tanzanian police. Many may argue that as long as the region is plagued by unemployment and poverty, violent conflicts will continue to intensify. This, however, does not hold true because the area is poor to begin with. In fact, since Barrick’s arrival, the community has gained accessed to electricity, roads, employments, hospitals… etc. (Regent, p.1) Looking at a bigger picture, it all comes down to one core problem that the villagers do not feel Barrick has done enough to the community comparing to the profit it has gained. In other words, the residents feel they are being ripped off because they benefit little to nothing from these mining activities. Even worse, the villagers living around the mine suffer the pollution and the climate of fear of violence that the company has created. In addition, Barrick’s failure to honour its promises of demarcating an area for small scale miners and setting aside money equivalent to one percent of the company’s income fuels the intension. Therefore, violence will continue as long as villages’ dissatisfactions remain unsolved. There are two possible options Barrick can attempt to...

...Proposed Tourism Development in: _______Intramuros______ TM09306: Tourism Planning and Development __________________________________________________________________Final Report ABSTRACT A historical place called Intramuros that is once a center for government religion and military superiority during the Spanish era, During the time it was called a walled city because of the tall walls that covered all over the place. But during the 2nd World War it was heavily damage due to bombings and also, the Japanese used it for their prison barracks. This paper shows the profile of the case study area which consist of Geographic Characteristics, Socio-economic, and Political profile. This explains the current status of Intramuros in terms of population, environmental quality, economic condition, and the educational institutions in the area. Political profile is one of the most important factors to consider since the government is the one who gives financial support to accomplish certain projects or plans. The city of Intramuros has many things to offer.

...INTRAMUROS Intramuros (Latin: within the walls) is the historic centre and oldest district of Manila, the capital city of the Philippines. Also known as the Ciudad Murada (Walled City) because of its most famous feature: a nearly three-mile-long circuit of massive stone walls and fortifications that almost completely surrounds the entire district. Understand From the city's foundation in 1571 to the end of Spanish rule in 1898, Intramuros was Manila. The Spanish conquistador Miguel López de Legazpi laid the foundations of the new capital on the former site of Maynilad, a palisaded riverside settlement ruled by a native chieftain. To protect the inhabitants from attack, in the late 1500s construction began on a series of stone walls and fortifications that would eventually enclose a pentagonal area approximately 0.67 sq km in size, within which lay a tight grid-like system of streets and a main square surrounded by government structures. The defensive curtain was more or less completed by the 1700s, although improvements and other construction work continued well into the next century. Within the protective walls rose a city of stone palaces, churches, monasteries, convents, schools, and fine courtyard houses. In the centuries that followed, Manila (meaning Intramuros) served as the capital of the Spanish East Indies - the centre of commerce, education, government, and religion in Spain's most distant imperial possession. Except for a brief period under British rule (1762-1764)...

...Book I Of the Causes of Improvement in the productive Powers of Labour, and of the Order according to which its Produce is naturally distributed among the different Ranks of the People Book I, Chapter I Of the Division of Labor*16 I.1.1 The greatest improvement*17 in the productive powers of labour, and the greater part of the skill, dexterity, and judgment with which it is any where directed, or applied, seem to have been the effects of the division of labour. I.1.2 The effects of the division of labour, in the general business of society, will be more easily understood, by considering in what manner it operates in some particular manufactures. It is commonly supposed to be carried furthest in some very trifling ones; not perhaps that it really is carried further in them than in others of more importance: but in those trifling manufactures which are destined to supply the small wants of but a small number of people, the whole number of workmen must necessarily be small; and those employed in every different branch of the work can often be collected into the same workhouse, and placed at once under the view of the spectator. In those great manufactures, on the contrary, which are destined to supply the great wants of the great body of the people, every different branch of the work employs so great a number of workmen, that it is impossible to collect them all into the same workhouse. We can seldom see more, at one time, than those employed in one single branch. Though in...

...Acknowledgments ix Acknowledgments This book owes a great deal to the mental energy of several generations of scholars. As an undergraduate at the University of Cape Town, Francis Wilson made me aware of the importance of migrant labour and Robin Hallett inspired me, and a generation of students, to study the African past. At the School of Oriental and African Studies in London I was fortunate enough to have David Birmingham as a thesis supervisor. I hope that some of his knowledge and understanding of Lusophone Africa has found its way into this book. I owe an equal debt to Shula Marks who, over the years, has provided me with criticism and inspiration. In the United States I learnt a great deal from ]eanne Penvenne, Marcia Wright and, especially, Leroy Vail. In Switzerland I benefitted from the friendship and assistance of Laurent Monier of the IUED in Geneva, Francois Iecquier of the University of Lausanne and Mariette Ouwerhand of the dépurtement évangélrlyue (the former Swiss Mission). In South Africa, Patricia Davison of the South African Museum introduced me to material culture and made me aware of the richness of difference; the late Monica Wilson taught me the fundamentals of anthropology and Andrew Spiegel and Robert Thornton struggled to keep me abreast of changes in the discipline; Sue Newton-King and Nigel Penn brought shafts of light from the eighteenthcentury to bear on early industrialism. Charles van Onselen laid a major part of the intellectual foundations on...

...At last the calm Stability comes to the PERE 50 now that franchises that were chewed up in the global financial crisis have seen their pre-crisis funds forgotten while the stronger groups have prospered via their second or third funds since then The PERE 50 ranking of private equity real estate firms, following the twisted iron wreckage of the global financial crisis of 2008, now has some shape and stability to it. Unlike last year when there were no fewer than 14 new entrants to the ranking, this time around we see just two firms making their premiere - Greystar Real Estate Partners and Almanac Realty Investors. This can be explained by the fact that the major banking franchises that used to rank so highly in this list have exited and been replaced by groups that have had the time to raise at least two significant funds since 2010 as the shakedown by investors has left the healthy apples on the trees, while the sickly have fallen. Of course, there has been no change at the very top of the chart. The Blackstone Group is out of sight having now raised more equity for opportunistic real estate investing than the GDP of 77 different countries. The only slight drama towards the top of the tree relates to second and third spot where Starwood Capital Group this year leapfrogged Lone Star Funds, having figured behind the Dallas-based firm the previous year. Starwood’s second position on the grid has a lot to do with raising its largest ever fund - Fund X. A counterintuitive...
