Abstract This paper explains that Carl Jung's collectiveunconscious theory basically states that there are many layers to the conscious mind. The author points out that Jung embraced a Darwin style belief and attributed Jung's archetypes to a biological base, which were inherited much in the same manner that having blue eyes is inherited. The paper relates that this theory, in later years, was ridiculed by many in the profession; however, modern investigations into false memories, memories from post traumatic stress syndrome and biological components of the brain lend credibility to this theory of collectiveunconscious. The paper includes two charts.

From the Paper "Taking the step one level further, the world of mental health has uncovered something that is referred to as false memory syndrome. This is where someone has a memory and it comes forth and the therapist and the person begin to work on it as if it is a memory of an actual event. Medical science has decided that sometimes they are false memories that are being brought forth and there is a definite biological component to their existence. This helps provide evidence of the biological factor or archtypes that are referred to in Jung's theory."
Abstract In this article, the writer discusses the collectiveunconscious and comunally shared ideas and looks at how this relates to myths. The writer compares the various beliefs of Freud and Jung in this regard. The writer notes that unlike the personal ideas of the area of the unconscious that are specific to the individual, the idea of the collectiveunconscious suggests that the human community shares certain specific, particular concepts or stories known as myths. Further, the writer points out that although these ideas are not articulated upon the surface, they are made evident in the myths and stories produced by the community.
From the Paper "Unlike the personal ideas of the area of the unconscious that are specific to the individual, the idea of the collective unconscious suggests that the human community shares certain specific, particular concepts or stories known as myths. Although these ideas not articulated upon the surface, they are made evident in the myths and stories produced by the community. Jung might note that Freud's chose a myth to express the idea of the Oedipus complex, or the hostility of child-parent relations between the child and the parent of the same sex. Rather than a tale of the Greek classical belief in the unavoidability of fate, as the surface meaning of the Oedipus story might seem to express, the tale becomes an expression of the entire human community."
Abstract This paper analyzes the life and work of psychological theorist Carl Jung. The author summarizes Jung's major work in the establishment of the collectiveunconscious, human archetypes, "the complex" and synchronicity, and discusses Jung's separation from Freudian psychoanalytic theory with his exploration of dreams, philosophy, religion and literature.

Carl Gustav Jung Today
From the Paper Carl Gustav Jung today stands as one of the most popular and influential psychologists whose perspectives have extended its influence well beyond the traditional confines of psychiatry. Jung's work has been criticized as being imprecise and numinous (Atkinson, 1993, p.545).
"The consequences of Jung's work have influenced significantly our way of thinking. Freudians have called Jung's theories as mysticism or religious in nature but Jung is remembered more fondly versus Freudian theories. Jung's theories have influenced motivational programs like the Alcoholics Anonymous as well as paved the way for a positivist approach in personality testing such as the popular Myer's-Briggs Test.
Jung was not afraid to study together scientific psychology and mysticism, religion and parapsychology, a traditional taboo of his field. However, because of his initiatives in this field, we are realizing more about ourselves and extending our realities. If one is to admire another for one's determination and open mindedness, then Jung certainly is a person to be admired.
Abstract This paper presents an overview and discussion on several theories of the unconscious. The author uses different psychologist theories to explain how the unconscious affects thinking, conditioning and life.
Abstract This paper discusses three articles on data collection and analysis tools and their applications. This includes data mining, data warehousing and software packages used in the collection. This paper also analyzes the needs of the business upon which the correct data collection and analysis tools are selected.
From the Paper "Business today has more and more need for external consultants to use data collection and analysis tools in order to make assessment of business operations and processes. Many of the methods used today are computer-based, including software that does much of the job but still requires an able human operator to make decisions and input the correct information. Various analysts have made assessments of these methods to see how they are used and how effective they may be. Such tools are also used for analyzing performance in education, for assessing public programs, and for other tasks requiring a decision as to the value of a program or process. Bielski (2001) discusses the use of CRM, or Customer Resource Management system, which is used to track customer purchases while providing access to customer information using the computer. "
Abstract This essay discusses collective bargaining at the European level. The paper answers three questions posed by the customer: What are the main challenges to collective bargaining at the European level, what are the main legal challenges at the European level and finally, is collective bargaining at the European level possible today and in the future and if not, why not.
From the Paper "European nations have made a lot of progress in recent year in moving toward a more unified Europe. The countries have already converted to a single currency, the euro. Now as they state to think about increasing globalization even further, many trade unions from the differing countries would have and interest in coming together and collective bargaining jointly. However, there several hurdles in the way of this goal."

From the Paper "The holiday season is upon us. Many consumers are currently participating in a frenzied shopping attempt to find just the right gifts for just the right purpose. It is a time of joy, a time of giving and a time of watching children's faces light up as they open their gifts. This is the way it is in most American households but for millions of children across the nation it won"t even come close. Children who live in single parent households and do not receive their child support on time or in many cases at all, will be facing a bleak holiday. And while the absence of holidays will be hard enough for these children, the struggle to pay for life itself faces their parents each and every day. Child support is not a luxury. It is the absent parent's contribution to the living needs of their children. It is rent, it is food, it is haircuts and sports, it is water, it is the phone bill and it is the braces on their teeth. Millions of non-custodial parents are currently behind in their child support payments. The government seems overwhelmed with the task of collecting the funds and private companies have begun to spring up throughout America. Is it a good idea for the government to release its hold on the child support collection issue and allow private industry to step in" Or should the government concentrate on fixing its problems and maintaining control? The best answer may be to utilize the best of both worlds and combine the two. "

Examination of the collective bargaining process in state and local government according to John Piskulich in his book "Collective Bargaining in State and Local Governments".
Abstract This paper is a review of John Piskulich's book "Collective Bargaining in State and Local Governments". The paper covers Piskulich's discussion of policymakers, the role of unions, the various dimensions of the bargaining process, the history of the policy making process and the obstacles policy makers face.
From the Paper "In his book John Piskulich attempts to uncover why and how to manage collective bargaining. "Collective Bargaining in State and Local Governments" discusses how the collective bargaining process in the public sector has grown from a state of infancy to maturity. He makes note that policymakers are currently in a state of flux, constantly changing and modifying current regulations to keep up with the dynamic environments in which they work. John Piskulich emphasizes in his work that public-sector unions act as a significant force in operating government agencies."
Abstract This paper examines whether or not it is professional and ethical for nurses to engage in collective bargaining. In particular, the paper focuses on the appropriateness of nurses going -- or threatening to go -- on strike. The paper asks whether striking is an abandonment of the patient. The paper also reviews the purpose behind collective bargaining -- what it is intended to achieve and how it functions, particularly in unions for health care professionals.
Abstract The following assignment is for a third year sociology course. The topic discussed is collective social behaviour. The collective social behavior examined in this assignment is anti-war demonstrations. The writer uses social contagion theory and emergent norm theory in order to examine the nature of anti-war demonstrations.
From the Paper "Collective behavior is a very broad area of study. For example, in Collective Behavior Erich Goode states, 'Rumors and legends, fads, and collective protest- these and other social phenomena make up the subject matter of the field of collective Behavior'. Collective behavior is the relatively spontaneous, unstructured, extra institutional behavior of a fairly large number of individuals. The fact that collective behavior is such a diverse area of study means that many activities can be used to examine it. For this paper, demonstrations against the war in Iraq or anti-war demonstrations as they are commonly called will be used to examine many of the theories about collective behavior."

From the Paper "Socrates, Aristotle and Plato opened the floor for the study of human behavior and mental life in their philosophical discourses. The fundamental question involved what motivated man to do the thighs he does and how ideas come about. Two thousand years have passed and these questions remain the driving force behind the study of the human psyche- of Psychology."
Abstract The paper provides a discussion of new historicism and theories of the unconscious as the basis for literary criticism. The paper explains new historicism as a theory of textual critique. The paper quotes Jung and Lucan.
From the Paper "Among the literary and critical theories that gained currency over the course of the ?th century, two strands of thought in particular resonate new historicism and aspects of neo psychoanalytic theory that touch on unconscious processes that operate not so much at the individual as at the social level where experience is shared and unconscious processes are collectively enacted, via encounters between and among inmates of the community to shape human experience."

Abstract This paper discusses the theories of Sigmund Freud, as both a philosopher and a medical doctor. The paper critically examines Freud's belief that "the unconscious knows no chance." It discusses his two basic principles of civilization, as well as the theories behind the principles. The paper applies his theories to dreams and determines if his hypotheses can be supported.
From the Paper "Freud used these same theories to explain how myths develop in a society. If the mind makes up these fantasies intentionally and a society is nothing more than a collection of individual fantasies then phallic symbols in art are nothing more than the collective fantasies of a society. This supports the idea of common themes in the interpretation of dreams, slips, and jokes. There are few explanations as to how myths develop. Many feel that myths are simply made up stories and that they have no basis in reality. Others feel that the stories have a basis in some real event but that the facts of been changed so that it can be remembered and retold. Of these two extremes, Freud's theories appear to be the most plausible because the stories are real, and fictional at the same time. The myth is a prime example of how the mind leaves nothing to chance. Myths are carefully constructed so that they represent the collective conscience of an entire nation or peoples."

Conclusion
From the Paper "Collective bargaining in Germany takes place at the regional level, but can also in some cases take place at the company or even at the national levels. The trade unions may sign up 'collective contracts' either with employer's associations or with individual employers, and these contracts are legally binding for everyone who has been involved in the negotiations -in part due to the principle of 'equal treatment' wherein all workers of the company are bound under any contract signed by the company after negotiations with employees and unions. The industry level collective bargaining efforts in Germany covered the construction business and the consumer non-durable business, and also the transport and communication industries, to quote a few.
