...BACKGROUND Who does not know Toshiba? One of the biggest electronic company in the world. Toshiba was formed in 1939 by a merger of two highly innovative Japanese companies: Shibaura Seisakusho Works, which manufactured transformers, electrical motors, hydroelectric generators, and X-ray tubes; and Tokyo Electric Company, which produced light bulbs, radio receivers, and cathode ray tubes. The first company in Japan to make fluorescent lamps (1940), radar (1942), broadcasting equipment (1952), and digital computers (1954), Toshiba became the first in the world to produce the powerful one-megabit DRAM2 chip in 1985. The first laptop computer, the T3100, was also unveiled by Toshiba, in 1985.3 In 1995, Toshiba was an electronics giant, third in Japan behind Hitachi and Matsushita,4 posting sales of $47.9 billion and a net profit of $447 million. The information and communication systems and electronic devices division, which included notebook PCs, accounted for 52% of the company’s total sales. By 1995, Toshiba had produced more than 5 million portable PCs since it introduced the first laptop a decade earlier. The market for portable PCs was one of the most dynamic and rapidly expanding segments of the computer industry, as increasingly mobile professionals demanded powerful, light-weight machines packed with features. In total, 2.85 million notebook computers were sold in the U.S. in 1994, and sales in 1995 were projected to exceed 3.6 million units. In the first quarter of 1995...

...miserable and stressful. In this paper, I will be discussing the types of conflict, approaches to conflict resolution, and how to deal with conflict. Introduction We resolve conflicts every day without even realizing it. It can be something as small as arguing over what color the sky is to something as major as a car accident. Everyone deals with issues that come up in different ways. Nelson & Quick (2013) defined conflict as “any situation in which incompatible goals, attitudes, emotions, or behaviors lead to disagreement or opposition for two or more parties” (p. 472). Resolution was then defined as “a decision or determination; the act determining an action or course of action, method, procedure, etc” (“Resolution, 2014). In 2013, Ome summed up conflict resolution as “a variety of approaches aimed at terminating conflicts through the constructive solving of problems” (p. 5512). Types of Conflict Nelson & Quick (2013) broke down the types of conflicts for us to better understand and distinguish. Functional conflict is a healthy, constructive disagreement between two or more people (p. 472). It can produce more ideas and build growth between individuals. Working relationships are improved, a feeling of accomplishment comes over all parties involved, and the morale of the environment improves. Dysfunctional conflict is an unhealthy, destructive disagreement between two or more people (p. 472). This conflict drains the energy out of people and the origin is usually...

...Shelby's Asymmetry Theory It seems that one of the most controversial opinions Tommie Shelby presents in his book Dark Ghettos is the idea that men should not be obligated to take care of their biological children, if they had explicitly expressed that they did not want children. I also believe that this is one of the most important arguments Shelby makes. According to Shelby, explicit expression of not wanting a child for men could include actively avoiding pregnancy by using contraception (Shelby, 153). One reason Shelby gives for his view is “even if the mother finds her parental role difficult to shoulder alone, this does not mean that the biological father is to blame for her burdens” (Shelby, 161). Furthermore, “[s]ome of these fathers,...

...A Critical Review of Keynes’ General Theory of Employment, Interest & Money By:- Deepika Rana Priyanka Gupta Biographical Account John Maynard Keynes is doubtlessly one of the most important figures in the entire history of economics. He revolutionized economics with his classic book, The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (1936), regarded as probably the most influential social science treatise of the 20th Century. The son of the Cambridge economist and logician John Neville Keynes, John Maynard Keynes, born in 1883, was bred in British elite institutions - Eton and then King's College Cambridge. During his freshman year at Cambridge, Keynes was invited to join an intellectual group called "The Apostles" that met periodically to discuss literary, philosophical, political, and aesthetic questions. Through his association with the Apostles, Keynes became introduced to the philosophy of G. E. Moore; critics note the pervasive influence of Moore's Principia Ethica on Keynes's A Treatise on Probability, his only philosophical work, as well as on his economic methodology. His first book on Indian currency (1913) was directly related to his experience at the India office. From 1914 to 1918, J.M.K. was called to the UK Treasury to assist with the financing of the British war economy. He excelled at his job and the influence he gained earned him a position with the British delegation to the Versailles Peace Conference in 1918. J.M.K was appalled at the vindictive...
