...The purpose of this essay is to compare and contrast the case for and against an organization adopting an ethical approach. This essay will look into the two sides of the argument in depth using relevant theories, examples and case studies. The first part of this essay will look into why an organization adopting an ethical approach to management could ultimately benefit the firm. The essay will look at various strengths that could be achieved by an organization, these theories and ideas will be backed up with possible case studies and real life examples. The second part of this essay will look at the case against a firm adopting an ethical approach to management. Again various reasons will be analyzed and will be backed up using relevant theories, case studies and real life examples. After looking at both sides of the argument this essay hopes to come to a conclusion perhaps suggesting that it would be important for organizations to act ethically to a certain extent. Before going into the first side of the argument it will be important to define what is meant by an ‘ethical approach to management’, so this section of the essay will compare and contrast various definitions. One definition suggests that ‘ethics are the moral principles that should underpin decision-making. A decision made on ethics might reject the most profitable solution in favour of one of greater benefit to society as well as the firm’ (Marcouse, 2003). The key words used in definition are ‘moral principles’...

The Hope for Child Beggars Conclusion Bibliography Chapter I Introduction In the Philippines’ current condition the populations live below poverty level. The basic cost of foods and transportations are growing rapidly while employment opportunities remain low. It is not surprising that children are often forced by circumstances to help their family in eking out a living or fend for their selves to live in the street, that’s why they engage in begging. They are also ‘engage in begging to help their parents in eking out the subsistence of the family.’As they remain in the streets begging they remain ‘unschooled, unskilled and with no future, if they don’t beg, they will starve’and probably begging is their last resort to live. In the Philippines, especially in the Quezon City, beggars are common sight, especially the children. Child beggars in the streets of Quezon City are...

...L5N2J2, CA Dear Katrina, I have read your essay throughly. I need to mention the fact that it has traces of plagiarism in it. The reason why I said this is because you have just paraphrased someone else’s work and shown it as your own. I appreciate and would stress also that you don’t use plagiarism in your assignments. To avoid it you can use the material and facts as a source only. Give your own point of view and try to be original. It will be very helpful for this and your future assignments if you will cite your sources. If you don’t follow this guideline your work will be marked as zero and you won’t get any credit. In order to improve your essays I would suggest that you rewrite it and cite all your sources which were previously mentioned in this essay. I would explain to you that why I believe your essay to be a case of plagiarism .If you take a look at a definition of Middle English by C.Hugh Holman’s A Handbook to Literature: “English as spoken and written in the period following the Norman Conquest and preceding the Modern English period beginning at the Renaissance. The dates most commonly given are 1100 to 1500, though both are approximate dates, as the Norman Conquest came in 1066 and some writings earlier than 1500 (e.g., Malory’s Le Morte D’arthur) may properly be called “modern” English.” You will notice that what you have written is just the paraphrasing of the above definition. From there on even you could tell that this work...

...focuses on individual definitions of happiness. For this writing assignment, you will prepare and conduct interviews with two people about their definition of happiness, how they gained this view, and whether they feel happiness is achievable. Choose two people who vary in age and experience. Only one of the subjects can be someone you know well. This is an opportunity to learn about acquaintances and strangers as well. These should be face-to-face interviews. Introduce this assignment by introducing each subject one at a time. Who are they? What is the nature of your relationship? Next, ask a variety of questions to get them to consider not just their definition of happiness, but its origins and development. You can use these sample questions to get you started, but should add more questions or change the interview as it develops: Has your definition of happiness changed over time? What experiences have influenced your definition? Do you expect the definition to change again? Follow the Unit 4 template for this assignment in DocSharing. It includes submitting a transcript of your interviews, including your questions, so take notes or record the discussion. Finally, you should draw conclusions about the process and the answers that were given. Compare and contrast the results of the interviews. Discuss what was similar or different in the replies, whether the subjects were honest, or if the concept of happiness was difficult to define. The essay should be at least...

...What Is Politics On hearing the word politics, what usually springs to mind are images of government, politicians and their policies or more negatively the idea of corruption and dirty tricks. The actual definition seems to have been obscured and almost lost by such representations and clichés that tend not to pinpoint the true essence, which defines this thing, called politics. In order to make an attempt at a definition of politics a systematic approach is required. To begin with, a brief historical overview will be considered, to understand the origins of politics. Following this, different core concepts, which are imperative to a definition of politics, will be discussed, in the hope to discover a true and fair interpretation of the word politics. The word politics comes from the Greek word "polis", meaning the state or community as a whole. The concept of the "polis" was an ideal state and came from the writings of great political thinkers such as Plato and Aristotle. In his novel "The Republic", Plato describes the ideal state and the means to achieve it. Hence, the word politics originally has connotations in the ways in which to create the ideal society. An ideal society is in practice a rather difficult aim and even an impossible aim to achieve. Politics implies measures which could and should, in the views of their devisor, be implemented in the hope to create a better society, than that which is already present. The very...

...Essay August 6, 2011 Written by Joseph Prabagar There Is No Hope of Doing Perfect Research (Griffiths, 1998, P97) Do You Agree? When I was asked to write an essay on the statement above, I went to Google to get an idea. What I found amazed and belittled me all the same. Hundreds of essays were already available on this very statement! And I, having read countless books, had not encountered this declaration made by Morwenna Griffiths on page 97 in her book entitled, Educational Research for Social Justice: Getting off the Fence… until now. Majority of the uploaded essays on the web began by quoting the definition of the word ‘research’ and then elaborated on the definitions before proceeding to agree with the ‘no perfect research’ doctrine proclaimed by Griffiths. One particular essay that was published in TermPaper Warehouse – The Term Paper Factory, caught my attention. It was simple, direct and made absolute sense. The opening paragraph of this essay summarized Morwenna Griffiths’ statement as a realization that, as humans we have the capacity do our best research but we must also accept that it cannot be perfect (Asymphonical termpaperwarehouse.com). Do I agree? Yes absolutely. I recollect the term paper that I did for a Sociology course in college some years ago. The subject matter was on Heavy Metal and the misunderstood fans. My research for the term paper was primarily based on questionnaires, interviews, introspection and observations. As there was a...

...| Plagiarism | Universtiy | Jane Doe | | | | Hello my name is Jane Doe and today I would like to briefly talk about plagiarism. This essay will be about what plagiarism is, the original meaning of it, and the legal aspect of it. I hope that this essay is informative and persuasive and it gives a meaning of plagiarism. Plagiarism is the wrongful appropriation of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions and the representation of them as one's own original. It can also be considered academic dishonesty and a breach of journalistic ethics. It is subject to sanctions like expulsion and in some cases you can be kicked out of the classes. Plagiarism has many more different definitions in higher learning educations but I just chose these for a few. The original meaning of plagiarism is “kidnapper” in the Latin word and it was formed in the 1st century. The Roman poet Martial, whom complained about another poet “kidnapped his verses, pioneered this word. This word was introduced to the English in 1601 by dramatist Ben Jonson and he described this word as plagiary, which means someone guilty of literary theft. The word plagiarism was introduced to the English around 1620. There are many different legal aspects to plagiarism. For example, plagiarism is not a crime per se but in academics and industry it is a serious ethical offense and cases of plagiarism can constitute copyright infringement. Although plagiarism in some contexts is considered...

...Euthyphro In this essay I will explain the concept of the holiness emerges and why it takes a prominent position in the conversation between Socrates and Euthyphro. I will also explain the three definitions that Euthyphro uses in his response to Socrates and then present Socrates’s refutation of each of Euthyphro definitions. Also this essay will test my ability to develop my own argument as to what I think Socrates’s goal is in this dialogue. How do you know that is his goal? What features of the dialogue align his goals? I will also give own definition of piety/holiness and then take on the role of Socrates and respond to my own definition as I think he would. Plato conversation set close to the king Archon court were Socrates and Euthrophy cross words. The conversation surround Socrates trying to understand the concept of how gods see piety and impious in mankind. The debate between Socrates and Euthrophy is that Socrates wants a new form of definition for pious and impious needs to man needs to be judge by man not from god’s justice. The concept of holiness explain how to be devout religiously not the act of being love. The conversation emphasize the true meaning of piety and impiety, and important conversation between Socrates and Euthrophy took place because Socrates does not believe in tales mythology and Socrates would like a more reasonable answer to all his questions. At the end of the conversation both Socrates and Euthrypho concluded that holiness as something...

...your passage on Middle English, in your essay on Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, is plagiarized. First of all, I do not believe that you intentionally plagiarized it although based off of the sentence structure it is a paraphrase of C. Hugh Holman’s definition of Middle English from A Handbook to Literature. You did reword your passage, but in terms of each sentence of your passage, they contain identical information compared to the sentences C. Hugh Holman’s passage about Middle English, in the exact same order as well. Since you did not cite your passage, the penalty would be to receive a grade of zero on the entire assignment. Although, I do believe you when you say it is common knowledge, and I also do believe that you did this unintentionally and not on purpose, so I shall instead disregard that specific passage Middle English, and not evaluate that section. For future reference, there are many techniques that you can use in order to avoid plagiarism. To begin, if you plan on summarizing, paraphrasing, or quoting, you must create a citation no matter what. Aside from those things, to avoid plagiarism in the first place you should record all of your sources when you make your notes, or create a summary of something that you plan on using and then when you are actually writing in your essay, and then write based off of the summary. I hope you understand my reasoning of why I believe that your passage was plagiarized, and I hope that you do not make that mistake again...

...begins with a general description of essay writing and moves to a discussion of common essay genres students may encounter across the curriculum. The four genres of essays (description, narration, exposition, and argumentation) are common paper assignments you may encounter in your writing classes. Although these genres, also known as the modes of discourse, have been criticized by some composition scholars, the Purdue OWL recognizes the wide spread use of these genres and students’ need to understand and produce these types of essays. We hope these resources will help. Overview The essay is a commonly assigned form of writing that every student will encounter while in academia. Therefore, it is wise for the student to become capable and comfortable with this type of writing early on in her training. Essays can be a rewarding and challenging type of writing and are often assigned either to be done in class, which requires previous planning and practice (and a bit of creativity) on the part of the student, or as homework, which likewise demands a certain amount of preparation. Many poorly crafted essays have been produced on account of a lack of preparation and confidence. However, students can avoid the discomfort often associated with essay writing by understanding some common genres within essay writing. Before delving into its various genres, let’s begin with a basic definition of the essay. What is an essay? Though the word essay has come to be understood as a type...

...Everyone has their own definition of success but many people will define success as earning a lot of money. My definition of success is being happy. Being happy means being emotionally and financially successful. By setting goals for myself and working hard I can acheive my definition of success. Currently, I am a freshman in college and hope to pursue a career in dental hygiene. This is one of the many goals I have set for the future. But, with any goal comes hard work and setbacks, otherwise it wouldn’t be a goal. Although we can never strictly predict the future and where we are headed, there have been many attempts at it. Does the future include robots, flying cars, mind reading technology? Quite possibly, but we aren’t certain of anything....
