Cultural dimensions

David Icke expresses “They are our leaders, our corporate executives, our beloved Oscar-winning actors and Grammy-winning singers, and they're responsible for the Holocaust, the Oklahoma City bombings and the 9/11 attacks.” The image of a crude homosapien creating the first fire pales in comparison to The Reptilian Elite responsible for every advancement that ever occurred on our mother earth. Reptilians were even though to be present in Sumeria the earliest civilization. “Historian Professor Charles

Luke's Three Dimensions of Power "Power serves to create power. Powerlessness serves to re-enforce powerlessness"(Gaventa,1980:256). Such is the essence of the on going relationship between the Powerful and the Powerless of the Appalachian Valley where acquiescence of the repressed has become not only common practice but a way of life and a means of survival. In his novel Power and Powerlessness, John Gaventa examines the oppressive and desperate situation of the Appalachian coal miners under

The bright colors caught my eye and the image reminded me a little of my hometown. Where I come from there's a large range of ethnicity and when I saw this lithograph it brought back old memories. Of when, I guess you can call them thugs, would drive up and down the streets of Dumas in there decked out lowriders thinking they were the coolest thing since sliced bread. In my opinion I always thought low riders were absurd and that they were a mark down to the cars real stature. Luis Jimenez's lithographs

The Phenomenological Focus of Existential-Humanistic Counselling, and the Role of Bracketing A phenomenological focus in existential counselling relates to the degree in which a therapist attempts to stay with the lived experiences of the client (Spinelli, 1989). The phenomenological method, as explained by Spinelli (1989), has a foundation of three main rules to guide the therapist. The first rule of ‘epoche’, recommends putting aside any prejudices and biases, as well as expectations or pre-conceived

What Students Should Know According to the learning progressions report, coming into third grade, students know how to analyze, compare, and classify two-dimensional shapes by their properties. When students do this, they relate and combine these classifications that they have made (The Common Core Standards Writing Team, p. 13). Because the students have built a firm foundation of several shape categories, these categories can be the “raw material” for thinking about the relationships between classes

The following paper will discuss two of the major dimensions of my cultural identity, and analyze the way in which my identity holds privileges, or has exposed me to oppression. Being that I am white, I have lived a life of privilege simply because of the color of my skin. I have been afforded opportunities, and lived a life free from persecution due to my skin color. I have also lived a life that has been impacted by oppression because of my female identity. This unique position between privilege

After knowing cultural humility from Tervalon and Murray-Garcia’s research, I realize that looking at different cultures with an open mind is an essential principle in social work practice. Compared to the cultural competence, cultural humility is more about self-reflation rather a skill I need to master. Looking things from the lens of cultural humility helps me calm down to think about the differences, and I learn to treat people respectfully when I interact with diverse individuals. I am interested

I examine how cross sectional differences in national culture dimensions affect the probability of CEO turnover and its sensitivity to firm performance after cross-listing by a non-U.S. firm in the United States. I find that three of the Hofstede indexes (long Term Orientation, Power Distance, and Uncertainty Avoidance) have a significant negative effect on the probability of CEO turnover. For two of these indexes, when firms from a country with a higher (lower) index than the U.S. cross-list in

process and when these decision have been made, especially, those of the controversial nature of ones centred around the most conflict (Lukes, 1974:13) The one dimensional view of power proposed by Lukes is the most straightforward of the three dimensions. In a way, it is also the easiest to observe, as the power structure through decision-making is more translucent and has a lot of clear definable features. The two-dimensional view or second face of power discusses the non-decision making and how
