Loyalty Within A Group Of People

Obedience to people in authority is a deep-rooted trait that we all possess by virtue of our upbringing, and as Milgram put it, “it is only the person dwelling in isolation who is not forced to respond, with defiance or submission, to the commands of others” (Milgram 1974). This trait is exhibited every day in family circles, workplace and school. People are most likely to obey instructions from people they perceive their authority to be legal or moral. We see people obeying their pastors, leaders in various societies and other people they see as higher to them; and they obey anything they are being told even if it involves killing another human being. They justify their actions, however wrong, on obedience to authority.

The main points in the article “Their Best Way to Show Loyalty” published on March 6, 1942 is to remove all Japanese people out of military zones until the war is over, give Japanese as much time as they can to find a place to go, and to make it as easy as possible for them to go and stay until the war is over.

Japanese people were in danger living where they were, and if they would have stayed there would have been real danger arising.

Adam Hochschild proposed a great question in regards to loyalty. “What should any human being be most loyal to? Country? Military duty? Or the idea of international brother hood?” (p. viii) Adam Hochschild’s To End All Wars: A Story of Loyalty and Rebellion, 1914-1918 focuses on World War I but what makes his book different from other books about World War I is that it does not focus on the history of the military instead “this book is the story of some of these war resisters and of the example they set.” (p. xvii)

- Loyalty and friendship: we can see true examples of loyalty when the “good ones” decide to help each other and stick together no matter what even when they were in much less number and also we can see how Jim feels when he abandons his fellows, this shows loyalty and also shows the friendship existing between them. A different kind of friendship is the one that exists between pirates that is not a real friendship but one that is only for when they need, at any moment they can go and kill each other. - Values and manners: Relations between characters are a big issue in this book because the impression the elements take from each other depends on the values they have and the way they talk and treat the others. The biggest proof of this is

The playwright and novelist Oscar Wilde one stated that “Morality is simply the attitude we adopt towards people whom we personally dislike.” People who do not conform to our own idea of morality are all together considered immoral by our own rationalizations. Sometimes people do things that they know are most likely immoral, but yet they still have a reason to justify what they did as being not that immoral. In certain situations people are quick to give judgement based on what someone does and will decide if the person is right for how they handle a situation. For instance, doing or selling drugs is immoral and is something that should not be done. Yet if someone does drugs and has a reasonable answer for doing them, it then sort of makes

Their friendship shows loyalty. For example, when David and Alan had a warrant for their arrest, David could have left Alan because his name wasn’t mentioned.

This thesis explores an analytical and conceptual framework on the possibility of employee- ownership influence on organizational loyalty as it applies to the modus operandi of John Lewis’ Partnership. There are divergent views about the influence of employee- ownership on organizational loyalty. Research suggests that ownership may influence organizational loyalty (e.g. Taylor, 2011) but it is not completely clear how, thereby prompting various researches and scientific experimentation on the subject matter. Scholars (e.g. Lampel et al, 2010) reviewing the performance differences between companies that practice employee- ownership framework and other forms, like State-owned Enterprises (SOE) have provisioned mixed results. On the average, these investigation by various scholars and academia opined that employee- ownership and privatization usually results in improved loyalty and financial performance (e.g., Andrew and Dowling (1998); Martin and Parker (1997), Lioukas and Kouremenos (1989)).
