.... Many economists point to Great Britain’s economic lengthy recession of the 1920s as beginning (if not triggering) the worldwide Great Depression of the 1930s. In our present day, the continued economic slide of Japan, the world’s second largest economy, is the single biggest threat posed to the global economy. Another similarity exists between modern day Japan and Great Britain of the 1920s. In both cases, monetary policy has been blamed for contributing to sinking of these economic Titanics. With this in mind, the purpose of this paper is to explore the failure of Japanese monetary policy to deal with its present economic crisis. Background and the Problem .....

.... the only difference being race and/or sex. What we have here is a case of predetermined preference. The two candidates in question are equal in all ways, except race. The black applicant is selected, not because of skills or qualifications (in that case the white man would have provided the same result), but for his skin color. This seems to be blatant discrimination, but many believe it is justified. Some feel retribution for years of discrimination is reason enough, but that issue will be discussed later. First, lets focus on why this is not a solution to creating an unbiased society. Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream: "I have a dream that my four li .....

.... 1991, 18]. "In today's world setting, international migration is a discretionary action that is regulated by the specific actions of the governments of individual nation-states." There is no international obligation for any nation to allow others to enter or to work, in fact, most nations do not admit immigrants for permanent settlement Mass immigration has played a significant role in the economic history of the United States, nevertheless the harsh fact is that what may be necessary and beneficial at one time, may not be so at another. The demand for labor is being affected by "restructuring forces stemming from the nature and pace of technological change .....

.... resolved before a company can even consider entering uncharted foreign waters. This becomes very evident as one begins to study the international cola wars. The domestic cola war between Coca-Cola and Pepsi is still raging. However, the two soft-drink giants also recognize that opportunities for growth in many of the mature markets have slowed. Both Coca- Cola, which sold 10 billion cases of soft-drinks in 1992, and Pepsi now find themselves asking, "Where will sales of the next 10 billion cases come from?" The answer lies in the developing world, where income levels and appetites for Western products are at an all time high. Often, the company that gets .....

.... accidents from happening. However, some see it very unnecessary to drug test a man who sweeps the floor of a supermarket. When applying for any type of job involving the use or supervision of complicated machinery, one is prompted to take random drug tests. The usual method of drug testing in such a case is urinalysis. By forcing employees to take these random tests, employers are often accused of taking away employees' rights. Though a place of work is not exactly a democracy, it is true to an extent. The rights of American citizens include something called probable cause. In the United States Constitution, it is stated that no one shall have t .....

.... the populous" (Leveler, 16). Many people felt as if their current hardships could be blamed on the communists and their economic policies, specifically their "Core-Periphery" plan. The communist sponsored "Core-Periphery" economic policy that was evident in Russia was quite simplistic in nature. The theory, traditionally used to describe inter-continental trading and production, was adapted for use in the Russian economic zones. The theory was as follows; Areas which surround the capital (core region), usually rich in one material or another, would be used for the extraction of raw materials. These materials would then be shipped back to the capital .....

.... deeper than the surface issues to make a complete and just decision. An examination of the history of asbestos’ manufacturing and health hazards, using contrasting ethical theories, justifies the actions of early asbestos manufacturers As early as 1932, the dangers of asbestos were known by the industry that produced it. It was in this year that the British first documented the occupational hazards of asbestos dust inhalation. In 1935, there was correspondence between the editor of the trade journal Asbestos and Summer Simpson, president of Raybestos-Manhattan. This correspondence consisted of the editor asking permission to print an article about the d .....

.... of the underlying inefficient "human" factors in the market equation is necessary in order to account for the flaw in Efficient Market Theory. Efficient Market Theory: A Contradiction of Terms Efficient Market Theory (EMT) is based on the premise that, given the efficiency of information technology and market dynamics, the value of the normal investment stock at any given time accurately reflects the real value of that stock. The price for a stock reflects its actual underlying value, financial managers cannot time stock and bond sales to take advantage of "insider" information, sales of stocks and bonds will not depress prices, and companies can .....
