Abstract
The paper discusses how Canada currently enjoys many advantages over other nations, but faces challenges that are bound inextricably with Canada continuing to strengthen its ties to the United States. The paper explains that with Canada's economy and security being more tightly bound to the United States, there is a risk of taking on more of the American problems as well. The paper asserts that Canada would be better off if it looked to other countries for new trade and investment. The paper is of the opinion that with more economic independence, political independence will follow and Canada's international image will be less coloured by the United States' foreign policy and the acrimony it generates.

From the Paper
"With the growing forces of globalization and market liberalization, modern leaders face new challenges. For once, there is the fact that foreign companies are able to penetrate national markets and compete against the local organizations. In numerous instances, the competitors revealed several comparative advantages - such as technological superiority, cost effective labor force or an abundance of natural resources. Additionally, some states subsidize some of their sectors with the declared scope of increasing exports. To the host country, this translates into cheap imports, which, despite the good they do for the consumer, help demise the national industries, which are no longer able to compete. All these lead to the indubitable conclusion that competition in the twenty-first century is as fierce as it has ever been.
"Aside from the threat of cheap imports, the modern leaders also fear the possibility of losing their best staff members. Again, the forces of globalization have allowed a free circulation of not only commodities, but also human resource. Given that a company invests in the professional formation of its personnel, it is possible that the employees leave the organization for a better paid job within another global region. In this order of ideas, it can be concluded that competition for human resource is also increased. The same can be said about financial opportunities, in the meaning that national investors might find a foreign country to be a better suited investment destination than a national company."

Abstract
The paper refers to several concepts from the Analects and other Confucian thought that would help many individuals living in the West in the early 21st century. The paper addresses the orientation of otherness, how one conducts oneself in relation to others, serving the less fortunate, making sure one's orientation is quietly outward; observing consumerism and materialism and the harmful subcultures they have created.
From the Paper
"This paper examines Confucian ethics as having ideas of use to moral philosophy and education, in the present day. The Analects of Confucius have had a powerful influence on Chinese civilization, for centuries, and have concepts to help human beings, in general, far from East Asia. This inspiring is in contrast with much to upset human life and happiness in post-modern societies of great individual focus, wrong kinds of competition, consumerism and nearly constant thinking on money-making activity or else escapes into entertainment. In 2008, world events cause..."

Abstract
This paper proposes a framework for 21st-century schools that fosters innovation and flexibility, enabling them to adapt to the rapid and unforeseen change characteristic of the global environment.

From the Paper
"Schools in the 21st century face challenges that were virtually unknown in previous centuries, except during times of war or other social upheaval. Although schools in past centuries enjoyed relative stability and consistency of subject matter and approach, today's schools must be prepared for rapid and unforeseen changes in subject matter requirements, educational and business technology and myriad other facets of the culture that can undergo rapid change. To achieve this preparation, schools need to build in flexibility..."

Abstract
In researching various modes on 21st century policing and discretion, various sources arise that are debated. For instance, during the tales of Franz Kafka, there is a kingdom that is ruled by nobles and the laws seem to be made up as incidents occur. The people in the kingdom fear the unknown, simply because there is no guidance or they don't know beforehand what they have done. Yet, the consequence is punishable by extreme discipline to include death. It is the power of the nobles that scare the people in the kingdom. It seems that the same would apply to police officers patrolling various cities and states.

Abstract
This paper reviews Drucker's book on management challenges. The paper details the focus of Drucker's book and the change management techniques described by Drucker that are designed to deal with unpredictable and global and competitive changes.
From the Paper
"As is suggested by the title, Peter Drucker uses this book to explain how and why management will be challenged by the "brave new world" of economics and business we are facing in the 21st century. Many management paradigms (defined as "basic assumptions of reality a social science or discipline focuses on) are going to either be flexible enough to change in a faster paced and dynamic environment facilitated by ever-increasing advances in information and other technologies, or they will need to be abandoned completely."
