Can Enterprise Microblogging Replace Email?
No full textOver the past few years, microblogging has become an integral part of business communication, following the increased popularity and reliance on social networks in daily life. Previous research on microblogging platforms has mainly focused on the blog itself or bloggers, but there is little research on the role of microblogging in streamlining business processes and improving productivity. The objective of this research is to attain a more thorough understanding of the benefits of intra-office microblogging as compared to other modern methods of communication, especially email, by analyzing the differences in user interface, knowledge and task management, and facilitating dialogue.
This paper presents the findings of a qualitative study between microblogging and email, paying close attention the behaviors and needs of platform users. The author intends to demonstrate the ways in which microblogging is superior to email in terms of productivity, and can even improve upon intra-office communication. The theoretical framework will be based on the concept of Enterprise 2.0, or the use of emergent social software platforms within companies. This paper will compare microblogging and email as intra-office communication with the three principles of Web 2.0 technology in Enterprise 2.0: simple and flexible platforms of self-expression, customizable platform structure, and easy message management. The findings will assist executives, managers and employees understand how workers are likely to use microblogging in an enterprise

Racial Discrimination in Boaz Yakin's Remember The Titans (2000) : A Marxist Approach
No full textThe major problem of this study is to reveal the racial discrimination in Remember the Titans (2000) movie. The objective of this study is to analyze the movie based on its structural elements and based on Marxist approach.
In analyzing Remember the Titans (2000), the writer uses qualitative method and Marxist approach. The object of the study is the theme that is played by the all characters in Remember the Titans movie published in 2000, written, co-produced, and co-edited by Boaz Yakin. The primary data source is the script, and the secondary data sources are the other data related to the analysis such as the author‟s biography and some reference books. The method of data collection is library research by collecting and recording both of the primary and secondary data. The technique of data analysis used in this study is descriptive analysis.
The findings of the study show that. First, Remember the Titans Movie illustrates the racial discrimination to the black people, the condition of aristocracy and lower or working class. This different stratification creates a problem, that is the gap between them and the insulation to the lower rank by the higher one. The social relation have to hold on the equal rank of both sides, between men and women and this condition needs to be criticized further.Second Boaz Yakin in this movie “reconstructs” or re-presents the social condition at Virginia in 1971 a in order to reflect a similar issue of social relation and at the same time criticizes it. He tries to bridge the gap between the higher and the lower levels of social class by rebelling against the social stratification. The break of the stratification is symbolized in the love affair between the major characters
Reading Ruth : towards a postmodernist, literary and womanist analysis
No full textBibliography: leaves 132-140.This dissertation examines the book of Ruth from a postmodemist, literary and womanist perspective. The main methodology is postmodemist literary criticism, but it employs intertextual and autobiographical approaches as well. Chapter 1 is an exploration of the plot of Ruth and reveals that in order for the end goal of the plot to be achieved "emptiness has to return to fullness." It is shown that Ruth's action (her decision to return with Naomi) is the catalyst that begins the process that ultimately leads to the denouement of the plot. The fact that it is the two women, Ruth and Naomi, who drive the plot forward, indicates that the Book of Ruth is a woman's story. Chapter 2 demonstrates that the significance of narrative time for any literary analysis lies in the fact that the amount of time allowed for the retelling of the events rarely corresponds to the time it took for the events to happen. Since Ruth is a short story, the choice of what to tell, what to omit as well as how long to dwell on details are indeed significant. In other words it is shown that literary time is only spent on those aspects which are crucial for the advancement of the narrative. Since the reader's main goal is to see how the conflicts are resolved, the literary time spent on the resolution of the conflicts is an indication of where the weight of the story needs to lie. In this case, it is certainly with Ruth and Naomi judging from the amount of time spent on dialogues between the two women. They are therefore the ones that contribute to the resolution of the conflicts of the plot. Chapter 3 reveals that in the book of Ruth the narrative voice or the perspective of attitudes, conceptions and worldview are those of a woman. The fact that the book of Ruth is named after a woman; the fact that at the very outset all the males in the story die and it is the women that take over the narrative; the fact that in the end the women of Bethlehem declare that Ruth is better to Naomi than seven sons are just some of the reasons that substantiate the argument that the narrative voice in the book of Ruth was that of a woman. It is also shown that this narrative voice (whether overt or covert) subverts gender and ethnic expectations. Chapter 4 outlines the way in which biblical characters are portrayed. The subsections of chapter 4 deal with the characterisation of each major character: Naomi, Boaz, and Ruth. Chapter 4 is the longest chapter since it is difficult to evaluate characterisation without engaging the other facets of literary criticism as well, such as plot and dialogue
Governance and economic growth
No full textBecause protection of property rights cannot be appropriated by any individual, it is widely recognized as being the state's responsibility. Moreover, recent empirical evidence suggests that protection of property rights leads to higher investment levels and faster growth. The extent of property rights protection differs significantly across countries. The author integrates the emergence of property rights within a simple growth framework. Drawing on North (1990), he presents a model where economic performance and enforcement of property rights may reinforce each other.Initial conditions determine the economy's convergence to a high-income or a low-income steady state. Existing empirical evidence offers tentative support for this theory.Judicial System Reform,Labor Policies,Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Common Property Resource Development,Economic Theory&Research,Inequality,Common Property Resource Development,Environmental Economics&Policies,Governance Indicators
