Unocal in Burma

When Orwell was describing the burmese, he wrote “ the sneering yellow faces of young men that met me everywhere, the insults hooted after me when I was at a safe distance, got badly on my nerves”. In term of pathos, he uses language in a disgusting way and makes it known that he hates and cannot stand it where he’s at. In the documentary, there’s the positive side of spreading values, prosperity and peace and in a way, imperialism. However, even though this rhetorical piece doesn’t directly relate to the documentary, this is the negative side of Imperialism and how it can impact even the oppressor. Also, in the documentary, it just talks about spreading democracy but what we are blinded to is what happens behind. When America goes into another country to spread democracy, we rarely pay attention to what happens there or what they are actually doing there. There is less care and attention to what goes on behind than compared to attention towards the surface of spreading democracy. Not only that but, also in the text, George Orwell faced continuous mockery and embarrassment in Burma and that resulted in bad suffering for him. In Burma, even as the oppressor, he faced a constant struggle to maintain his power and his authority in front of the Burmese. As a oppressor, one would expect them to have the power and be able to maintain authority in another country but in this text, there is the opposite that is very unexpected. Overall, George Orwell’s experience in Burma represented the other side of Imperialism, which was even the one governing is affected as much as the one who is getting

Along with the benefits of the project, there are also numerous costs with Unocal moving forward with the natural gas project. Unocal knew that it was dealing with a corrupt government, so there was no guarantee that the money the government received from the project would be used in a way that would benefit the people in the country.

In the Super Project case, Crosby set out to argue that the current methodologies being utilized by General Foods Corporation to determine which capital investments to pursue did not always fit the bill. Crosby advocated using alternative methods for evaluation of Super including: 1) Incremental Basis, 2) Facilities Used Basis, and 3) Fully Allocated Basis. He provided the Corporate Budgets and Analysis management team with documentation that articulated each of the methods he used, the results obtained, discussion points, and ultimately his conclusions. As can be seen from the illustration below, each alternative provided vastly different outcomes, thus begging the question – which method should General Foods use?

The Law firm won the case in the end with the verdict that Pacific Gas & Energy had to compensate the plaintiffs in the amount of $333 million for damages (cornell.edu web site).

The utilitarian approach takes all the stakeholders into consideration and prefers the “…option that does more good than harm to stakeholders”. (Ethics Video 1) In this case, Luke must analyze which decision will create the most value and benefit for the stakeholders which include some of the following: investors, employees, ABC’s reputation and partnerships, Owen, and the person buying the house from his brother.’

Earlier this year the Havasupai Tribe and a coalition of conservation groups sued the United States Forest Service for allowing Energy Fuel Resources Inc. to operate a mine under a 1986 federal environmental review without tribal consultation. The Canyon mine was previously in non-operational status due to low uranium stock prices in 1992. Opponents of the uranium mining operation want the federal environmental review updated and

Throughout this paper I will try to prove that the proposed establishment of the Keystone XL Pipeline is a direct infringement upon the human rights of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe of North and South Dakota. In order to make this claim I shall directly address three elements: First, the evidence of possible inequality of this situation, secondly the explanatory progress of how and why this situation has come to be as it is, and finally the justice of how things ought to be (Walker, 2012).

Many of the lawsuits are for alleged human rights abuse by large corporations. There have been claims brought against ExxonMobil and Chevron for human rights abuse. Mercedes-Benz was sued on the biases of labor abuse, and Rio Tinto was sued by New Guinea residents for environmental

     Violation of Human Rights, destruction of the environment, and denial of freedom of speech and congregation are the ethical issues raised in this case. The Human Rights violations are many. The Nigerian special police force raped, tortured, and murdered hundreds who spoke out against the tyrannical government. All together they killed 2,000 Ogoni, razed 27 villages and displaced over 80,000 people who fled into the bush as refugees. The oil spills by the Shell Company, the lying of the pipeline across farmlands, and

Premier 's share price had dramatically underperformed the market for several years due to no clear strategy, a restrictive capital structure and the involvement in Burma was not being managed. Especially, the military dictatorship controlled the business all the time. The second issue is whether Total will reverse their bad reputation by operating business in Burma. Total had never had a good reputation for Corporate Social Responsibility (CRS). Total was marked as a part of not taking CRS issues seriously. Even though it is been pleased by Total 's adoption of a more public commitment to social responsibility, how to ensure their implementation on it? The third issue is risk and profit in Burma. Since Burma is a military dictatorship system, the regular results of democratic elections are not accepted. Summary arrest, force labour and torture were widely reported. It will affect a company 's profit by doing business in a pariah company.
