...Etch-A-Sketch Ethics. Summary. The case describes the decision by Etch-A-Sketch to move its production from Ohio to China. The Ohio Art Company was perhaps well known to be one of the top selling toys producing company of all time. In the 1990s, Etch-A-Sketch, the maker of the popular drawing board, was faced with a sluggish toy market and strong pressure to keep prices low. Consequently, the company made the unpopular decision to outsource production in December of 2000 to Kin Ki Industrial, a leading Chinese toy maker, laying off 100 U.S workers in the process. The closure of the company was expected by the employees but the thought of it moving was not emotionally easy since the company was the one holding the community together. The small Ohio town of Bryan where the manufacturing took place faced significant effects from the outsourcing. The population declined heavily and the tax base of Bryan, Ohio was severely eroded. Homes were also on auction and there were notices of foreclosures on the local paper. The rationale behind the decision for outsourcing was mainly cost saving. First and foremost the company wanted to lower their wages. Chinese factory workers made $75 per month compared to $1500 per month for U.S factory workers. On top of that, there were also low overhead costs for plants, maintenance, electricity and health benefits. All in all, they had to keep the cost of Etch-A-Sketch under $10 in order to compete with big retailers such as Walmart and Toy “R”...

...Case Study 2: Etch A Sketch Ethics MGT 214 – Managerial Foundations 6/12/2013 1. Was it ethical of the Ohio Art Company to move production to China? What were the economic and social costs and benefits of this decision? What would have happened if production had not been moved? In my professional opinion, I believe the Ohio Art Company’s decision to move the production of their Etch-A-Sketch product to China was ethically sound. The Ohio Art Company was losing money while manufacturing in Bryan, Ohio. Even though outsourcing resulted in layoffs in Ohio, it also saved the jobs of many other employees by keeping the company profitable. Furthermore, even though outsourcing may result in lost jobs in the USA, it does provide employment for people in other countries. If the Ohio Art Company hadn’t moved production, it may have been forced out of business due to high manufacturing costs and immense pressure from distributors to keep prices low. 2. Assuming that the description of working conditions given in The New York Times article is correct, is it ethical for the Ohio Art Company to continue using Kin Ki to manufacture Etch-A-Sketch toys? Continuing to use Kin Ki would be highly unethical, assuming that the New York Times article is correct and that Kin Ki would not immediately resolve the issue. According to the case study, Kin Ki was misrepresenting numerous aspects of their operation. These aspects included wages, hours worked, work conditions, and living...

...Washington Irving “Little minds are tamed and subdued by misfortune; but great minds rise above them.” Washington Irving, a well-known short story author in the nineteenth century, spoke these words of wisdom. Washington Irving became famous in America for his fine works from The Specter Bridegroom to Rip Van Winkle to The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. These satirical sketches are all based on the local areas in New York where Irving resided. His adventures through life spread the word of his writings and he became one of the first renowned short story writers in Europe. Washington Irving was born in New York, New York on April 3, 1783. His mother, Sarah, and father, William Irving, Sr., had eleven children including Washington. He was named after the United States first president, George Washington who was sought to be the greatest hero of all time to his parents. “… He attended the first presidential inauguration of his namesake in 1789” (Biography Channel). Irving was privately schooled and later went to study law in New York after his return from travelling Europe. In 1804 he travelled to France and Italy, while writing journals and letters. When he returned in 1805, Irving continued law school but did poorly for he barely passed the bar exam. (Biography Channel). After Irving finished his studies, he went on to write humorous essay with his older brother William Irving, Jr., and James Kirke Paulding. The Salamagundi papers published the essays in 1807 to 1808....

...The True Meaning of Rip Van Winkle In order for a prosperous future to occur, the present must be secure and the past must not be forgotten. Much can be said though, about the advance of mankind throughout the ages, with complete disregard to the woes and struggles of the past. Furthermore, while it would appear that the brawls of the present are almost always shaped to lend perception of a greater future, history dictates that this is not always true. In this vein, the story of America is not that much different than other epics from our past. From great reason, our ancestors sought significant change. Change brought about revolution both in the literal and intrinsic sense, and soon broader horizons quickly unfolded into an unprecedented amalgamation of opinion, social action and success. Throughout this time however, America has not been absent its critics, nor has it been isolated from internal critique either. One such example of this internal American critique can be found in Washington Irving’s, “Rip Van Winkle.” Therefore, the purpose of this brief work is to discuss the theme of Irving’s timeless masterpiece and offer critical insight as to its deeper meanings. The tale of Rip Van Winkle is set in the whimsical wilderness of the Catskill Mountains in pre-revolutionary America. As the story portrays, Rip is a simple man caught between his own ferocious hedonistic motivations, and the insurmountable demands of his condescending and oppressive wife (Perkins). ...

...discovery that his wife is dead. In time, Rip’s daughter, son, and several villagers identify him, and he is accepted by the others. One of Irving’s major points is the tumultuous change occurring over the twenty years that the story encompasses. Rip’s little Dutch village had remained the same for generations and symbolized rural peace and prosperity. On his return, everything has drastically changed. The village has grown much larger, new houses stand in place of old ones, and a Yankee hotel occupies the spot where the old Dutch inn once stood. The people are different, too. Gone are the phlegmatic burghers, replaced by active, concerned citizens. Rip returns as an alien to a place that once considered him important; he discovers that life has passed on without his...

...In Washington Irving’s Rip Van Winkle, one may think the story is for entertainment, but there is also the key point of Politics which is of more importance and can be reflected on with a better perspective. Rip Van Winkle was a gracious and charitable man whom many people from his village admire with sincere respect. He had a caring heart for both people his age, and for children, but did not have a good home life. He was constantly nagged by his wife and was lazy. Unlike working, Rip spent his days away from home fishing and hunting. According to Wyman, Rip ventures out to the mountain to hunt, encounters the ghosts of Henry Hudson’s Half Moon crew, joins in their revealing, and falls unconscious. After his twenty-year sleep, Rip experiences...

...Washington Irving was born in 1783 after George Washington, which he later met and was blessed him. Encouraged by his brothers to pursue writing at early age.

...Irving’s tale, written in 1820, also works with antiquity, but in a different manner: it lives out colonial cultural anxieties of Irving’s present, as he seems to be concerned with constructing archetypes of folk and with placing folk culture in the new American literary landscape. Examining the two versions of the tale, then, provides a fascinating peek into the transformation of concerns and values in America from Irving’s nineteenth century landscape to Burton’s twentieth (on the verge of twenty-first) century. Burton makes several significant moves that modify the basics of Irving’s tale, frequently at the cost of the folk elements of Irving’s version. The frame narrative of Irving’s story—the tale, part of a series titled “The Sketch Book,” begins with the preface “Found among the papers of the Late Diedrich Knickerbocker—is completely done away with (Irving 41). What is more, the second narrator of the story, who is narrating to Knickerbocker “at the corporation meeting of the ancient city of the Manhattoes,” is also disposed of (Irving 61). There is no narrator at all in Burton’s film, and the action that...

...with his dog and meets a group of people who he drinks with; then falls asleep and wakes up 18 years later. What Tom and Rip both failed to realize is that their decisions came with grave consequences in the end. They both ended up in terrible situations that they thought would not happen. Tom Walker’s outcome was far worse than Rip Van Winkle’s. Tom made a deal with the devil shortly after his wife had died. The devil ended up coming for him years later. The devil put him on a horse and took him back to the swamp to finally kill him (Irving 10-15). Tom failed to realize that his decisions would come with grave consequences in the end. Rip Van winkle set out for the woods with his rifle and dog because he wanted to get away from his home life. When he was out, he encountered a group of inhumane beings and drank liquor with them. When Rip woke up, he then found out that 18 years had passed and most of his family had been dead or gone off somewhere, except for a daughter and his grandchild (Irving 13-23).He was happy he still had family. Although Rip’s outcome was not as bad as Tom’s; they both did not realize that when they made their decision, it would come back and haunt them later. Rip’s decision was running from home and drinking with inhuman beings; and Tom’s decision of making a deal with the...

In the story, “Rip Van Winkle” Washington Irving created the American Mythology. The ideas, characters, setting, and mood help us to enjoy this story. I think my favorite part was how they explain the death of Dame Van Winkle. You would expect someone like her to die in that way. I was happy to see that Rip was reunited with his family. He was able to enjoy once again his lazy life. ...

...Irving uses satire in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow to blur the line of fantasy and story. Many stories during the time focused on the idolized hero. A hero that the everyday man could not measure up to. Irving decided to take the normal hero story and turn it on his head. He introduced a hero that didn’t get the girl, didn’t fight for love, and didn’t defeat the monster. Throughout The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Irving satirizes the the refined American and thus helps define the “new” American nation. The many cases of satire in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow come through the character is Ichabod Crane. Crane is a refined and intelligent man who comes to Sleepy Hollow for a teaching job. Even though, he is intelligent and outwardly respectable, he still believes in the unknown or supernatural and this where Irving begins to define the new nation. Crane’s interest or belief in the supernatural is creating a flaw that having too much knowledge can lead to a sense of false logic. Irving imagines a nation where Americans have the perfect balance of common sense and book sense. By creating a hero with such a flaw he shows what being to intelligent can do to you and your surroundings. Especially in a town that is “ "given to all kinds of marvellous beliefs; are subject to trances and visions; and frequently see strange sights, and hear music and voices in the air” ( 6 ). Another specific case of satire in Ichabod Crane is shown in his horse ride to the Van Tessel party. Irving describes...
