worldwide. CSR has become an integral part of today’s business environment. Despite the growing trend towards the implementation of CSR, the United States seems to be lagging behind other countries, such as the United Kingdom and those in the European Union, in the depth and impact of their CSR commitments and actions. This gap may be attributed to the different political, social, and economic cultures present in the institutional frameworks of other nations. The idea of social responsibility…
world’s citizens. It was clear that stubborn positions of nationalism had not only feed the beast that was Nazis Germany, but had also prevented capable, neighboring powers in Europe from coming together quickly enough to halt the blitz early on. European economies, militaries, and citizens were left horribly ravished, displaced and war-torn. Only an astonishing 20 years had passed between the end of the First World War and the start of the second; without doubt drastic changes would need to…
The European Union was concerned about beef from cattle that have been given growth hormones because it might lead to health problems if human consume it. Scientists used hormones to increase the growth rate of livestock, reduce fat, and increase milk production. Bovine somatotropin (BST), a hormone produced in cattle, was synthesized by biotechnology firm Genetech. The injections of BST increased the hormone production and growth rate of animals. This became popular among farmers because it cut…
The United States is known as a “melting pot” because there is such a diverse population in today’s world. The question whether or not the United states should have an official language has been around for decades. The English Only association says, “The U.S. Congress and individual states should adopt legislation making English the official language of the government so that government business must be conducted in English, with common-sense exceptions for services related to health and safety”…
Africa. This adds up to almost 3,000,000 migrants: those who are genuine refugees and those who are pretending to be refugees. All of these people are attempting to reach the shores of Europe. This is a controversial issue and one that has challenged European morality and responsibility to a level that has rarely been seen. There has been no single solution to this crisis and this is largely because of the range of reaction from different countries from the open door policies to closing the…
The European Union is one of the most idealistic and promising entities on the planet. It is a beacon of coming togetherness in order to promote an international wellness. However,such a political organisation will not exist without its flaws. The EUs flaws are in how its internal politics work. While the EU does try to promote a stronger Europe, sometimes this is at the cost of individual countries. The ‘one country one vote system’ that is present incentivises votes that promote the general…
brutalities that the war between different actors has caused. This paper will use a constructivist theory to help us make sense of the reasons for Europe’s inability to provide an efficient united response to the refugee crisis. Primarily, because the European…
It is estimated that a million people left the European Content during the years 1887 and 1888 alone. Roughly twenty million men and women entered the United States during the forty-one year period The Huddled Masses covers. The push pull factors for the people entering America are numerous.

Globalisation is the "integration of the political, economic and cultural activities of geographically and/or nationally separated people" (US Department of Defence, 1999, p1) which results in the widespread economic interdependence of nations across continents through the exchange of: capital and goods; information and ideas; people and environmental substances. This massively increased scale of trade and cultural interchange has been aided by a variety of processes: Improvements in…
B) The prevention and management of aging people Why does Europe have an aging population? The aging population of Europe is due to the decrease of fertility, the decrease of mortality rate, and the higher life expectancy of Europeans. Indeed at the beginning of the 60th the feminization of the work market delayed the age for having a child, and so it directly limited the number of children per women. Also the values and the culture based of family changed in Europe. The increase of…
