Abstract
This paper explains that, with the decline of communism and the plummeting of socialism in nearly every region of the globe, globalization, privatization, and economic liberalization have become the leading forces molding societies and economies across the globe. The author points out that, even though the term 'outsourcing' was thought to be new to business, the methodology is old because, traditionally, corporations have often enlisted the assistance of external specialists, such as legal and financial specialists. The paper concludes that the current employment problems are genuine because American companies are sending job to foreign lands.

How Outsourcing and Globalization Impacts the American Worker
From the Paper
"Such economic liberalization aggravates the widening gap between rich and poor amidst all the developing countries. Simultaneously, the other components of globalization have growing inequalities of political power and influence, as well as signifying new dimensions of inequality. One group of nation visualizes the globalization as an element that results in erosion of the consistency and practicability of the state. But other countries feel strengthened with the process of globalization, as they are better tunes to familiarize themselves and take advantage of new opportunities. Moreover, the widespread inequality of the authorities enjoyed by the states is quite significant and more pronounced to be an increasing volume of far-reaching rules, rights, and values that are being affirmed and exerted worldwide."

Abstract
This paper reviews the way six juvenile offenders were brutalized by guards, deprived of basic rights and kept sequestered in solitary confinement. The author illustrates the dangers of not properly screening applicants for positions, which put the successful candidates in positions of great power over others, such as juvenile offenders. The paper also points out how this case brings into sharp relief the need for better oversight of privately-run facilities across America. The paper concludes that events, such as these, should not happen; therefore, it is imperative that government, regulatory bodies and organizations have in place strict compliance guidelines that protect inmates from unscrupulous associates, administrators and prison staff.
From the Paper
"To give a full understanding of the depravity of those who abused these young people, it is worth noting that one of the victims was actually compelled to lie on the floor (on his stomach) with a guard's boot pressed squarely against his back. At first glance, that does not seem like a "big deal" - but the victim was recovering from gunshot wounds and was wearing a colostomy bag at the time. Suffice it to say, the pressure exerted upon his back was enough to cause him excruciating pain."

39253-Human-Resources-Motivation.doc, 2008.

Abstract
This paper discusses the lack of job satisfaction in the Human Resource Strategies Branch of the Federal Government, and the Furniture and Appliance Department of the John Highfield Company. Although the situations are very different the author draws comparison between the demotivation of the employees, which he suggests is mainly due to poor supervision, and suggests some methods to resolve the problem.
From the Paper
"In the case of the Human Resource Strategies Branch, the company faces two problems. One problem is that, in general, conditions are such that employees are bound to be demotivated due to the unsatisfactory way that they are supervised, the lack of clarity around policies and processes, downsizing and increased demands. The other more specific problem is that the Branch is in danger of losing Samantha, due to her high level of job dissatisfaction following the poor treatment from Jack, her Manager. This is a serious threat, as Samantha is a highly qualified professional - she is university trained in HRM, and also holds national certification as a Human Resources Professional. Such people cannot be lightly lost. As Prof. Brian Becker, of the University of Buffalo School of Management, puts it: "the business environment has changed - and altered HR's role along with it. Compared to earlier periods in our economic history, intellectual capital - for the first time - has a great deal of value" (Lin Grensing-Pophal, March, 1999, on web page cited). It would therefore be a good thing for the HR Strategies Branch to retain Samantha, rather than allow her to become so dissatisfied that she leaves."

73008.doc, 2007.
This paper reviews, chapter by chapter, the book "Lessons from the Future" by Stan Davis.

Abstract
This paper explains that Stan Davis' "Lessons from the Future" is a collection of essays, mainly selections or essay excerpts from his previous work. The author points out that, in most of Part One ("Ideas"), Davis breaks down the process of thinking, especially the need to identify the question and the ideal area for future direction, which helps the individual focus his or her thoughts. The paper relates that, where privacy was the greatest concern for the information economy and pollution was the greatest threat in the industrial economy, ethics will cause the most problems and necessitate new solutions in the bioeconomy.
From the Paper
"Explaining the "architecture" of information, Davis outlines form and function in relation to information. The form of information includes the shape and how it is structured. The function part refers to the activities carried out for the sake of information. Information in the current economy comes in the four forms of data, text, sound, and image. These inputs make the senses of sight and hearing more important than the others. Davis suggests that, in the future bioeconomy, the other senses may play a greater role."

This is an admissions essay for prospective law students.

From the Paper
"This opportunity to finally put my abilities as a lawyer to the test was pivotal for me. Although I had never prepared a case for a real trial before, I was excited and optimistic. By examining every aspect of the case's documentation, gaining full insight into Russian taxation legislation, and applying my logical reasoning and judgement, I was able to prepare a strong argument supported by the statutes to prove that the actions of the Revenue Board were in fact unlawful."

From the Paper
"This study will examine the characterization of Doc in John Steinbeck's novel Cannery Row. The novel is a celebration of life, including the grime and the glory, and Doc's character is meant to personify this broadly inclusive philosophy. As we read of Cannery Row's people:
Its inhabitants are, as the man once said, "whores, pimps. gamblers, and sons of bitches," by which he meant Everybody. Had the man looked through another peephole he might have said, "Saints and angels and martyrs and holy men," and he would have meant the same thing (1).
Doc is a scientific man, to be sure, but he is also a man grounded in the pleasures of everyday life. We first see him leaving his Western Biological Laboratory to buy five quarts of ..."

Philip Hayes Dean's "The Sty of the Blind Pig" (1971), 2004.

Abstract
This paper explains that, although the audience is cognizant that social change is on the horizon, the characters themselves, at first ,are only concerned with their immediate, personal changes and struggles. The author points out that the antagonist of the play is the character?s collective lack of movement and motion: Jordan is ?stuck? in his own way, in a quest for a woman long lost; Weedy and Alberta are ?stuck? in their apartment; and Uncle Doc is mired in a life of gambling. The paper determines that the three main members of the family all represent different, but ineffective, pre-civil rights ways of black Americans to cope with societal and institutionalized racism: religion in the form of Weedy; self-sacrifice and self-denial in the form of Alberta; and a recourse to get-rich-quick schemes and the drug of gambling in the form of Uncle Doc.
From the Paper
"Weedy?s brother, Alberta?s Uncle Doc, often visits both women. Doc is a gambler and a bad one at that, but his humor and animation seem to bring life to the room, even though he walks in a shuffling, difficult fashion. He seems to fill the room even though the audience knows his designs upon the two women are usually purely financial in nature, in a valiant and quixotic attempt, as amongst all down-on-his-luck gamblers, to get more money to waste in dubious ventures."

"Light in August", 2003.
An analysis of the theme of existentialism in William Faulkner's "Light in August".

Abstract
This paper examines how the novel, "Light in August," represents two groups of people who clearly hold different viewpoints on free will and the role of God in their lives. The religious fanatics, like Doc Hines and McEachern, see themselves constantly influenced by the will of God and, at times, guided by His very hand. It looks at how Faulkner projects existentialism's philosophy through the characters of Christmas and Hightower, who represent a dramatic transformation at the end of the novel.
From the Paper
"Christmas' life is not without the influence left upon him by the essence before existence philosophy. The District Attorney, Gavin Stevens, states, "the black blood drove [Joe] first to the negro cabin. And then the white blood drove him out of there" (449). Stevens fully accepts the notion of the "one-drop rule," and represents the mindset of those who would have an influence upon Christmas in regard to his racial identity. During much of the novel Joe is following this rule and the notion of maintaining the purity of white women by telling the prostitutes he is with that he is part black and expects their disgust."
