From the Paper
"Immigration developed as a major factor in American politics during the late 19th century, due to the large scale of immigration, the new and more diverse origins of the immigrants and the resulting social and economic tensions. Immigration contributed to the growth of big-city political machines and after World War I fear of immigrant radicals triggered the first great Red scare in American national politics. Thus, immigration and the fear of immigration and immigrants played a major role in ... "

Abstract
This paper applies the identity theory to the case of immigration in the United States. It asks if the United States should continue to allow Immigrants to enter the U.S. seeking refuge and citizenship, when the nations states are already overly populated? It questions whether immigrants should be allowed to enter the U.S. and work when there are hundreds of citizens and native-born Americans already unemployed and desperately searching for work. It uses these questions as example of the conflicting messages immigrants and their children face in modern day society, and explains how they add to the increasingly complex problem of finding identity in a torn nation.
From the Paper
"The United States is world known for its ethnic diversity, due in part to the immigration allowed over several years. Many people however, fail to find a means to foster inter-racial and ethnic identities, thus causing much conflict and a lack of a uniform sense of identity. The social issue relates to finding a common identity in a nation of multi-ethnicities. Children of immigrants are now coming of age, and from a social psychological stand will make the most lasting impression on society. The character of society will be shaped by their experiences."

Race and Immigration in Early 20th Century America, 2008.
A discussion of race and immigration in late 19th and early 20th century America, focussing on the case of "United States v. Bhagat Singh Thind," and the 1924 Immigration Act.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper examines how, during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, a national debate regarding the immigration of several ethnic groups to the United States led to two major legal decisions, Thind v. United States (1923) which attempted to clarify the "Meaning of White," and the Immigration Act of 1924. Thind, a native inhabitant of India, was found ineligible for American citizenship because his physical appearance was "distinctively different" from what was defined as being white. The writer explains that this and many other racially-biased opinions were further propagated and supported by the Immigration Act of 1924. The paper concludes that, although the act was revised in 1952, it nonetheless strengthened purely racially-based viewpoints on people from different cultures and on immigration into the United States.
From the Paper
"In essence, the racial/immigration debate in American society in the early days of the 20th century centered on one very simple question--what exactly is an American? With the first question, part of the answer appears to revolve around labor and employment, for in 1908, Samuel Gompers, one of the founders and original leaders of the AFL (American Federation of Labor) points out that white Americans were losing thousands of jobs to Asians, especially the Chinese and those whom he calls "Mongolian." Gomper's main argument is that "Mongolians" have made it nearly impossible for white Americans to obtain jobs involving menial labor, such as working in a factory or some other type of industry that manufactures household goods and clothing."

Johnson & Johnson, 2005.
This paper discusses the Johnson & Johnson company especially its major brand-drug Tylenol.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper explains that, since the 1885 partnership of the Johnson brothers, Johnson & Johnson has had a remarkable growth, world-wide especially, after World War II, when a plan of decentralizing operations was introduced, dividing the consumer market under the brand Johnson & Johnson and the professional markets under the current Ethicon brand label. The author points out that the Tylenol product not only has had problem with product tampering, which led to the introduction of tamper-proof packaging, but also this drug is deemed as having a narrower range between therapeutic and toxic than any other non-prescription drug especially for children. The paper concludes that, today, Johnson & Johnson is (1) a stable company with acceptable growth, but not as venturesome or dynamic in product innovations as some of its rivals and (2) is know as a family-friendly place to work with opportunities, especially for women and minorities.
From the Paper
"Saachi & Saatchi, one of the world's largest advertising agencies, handles some of Johnson & Johnson's consumer products advertising. Tylenol continues its campaign to promote its products as being used and recommended by health care professionals and used in hospitals more than any other "pain reliever". Pepcid AC has a strong campaign, positioned against other antacids as being able to be taken BEFORE a meal, as well as after. Feminine hygiene products are advertised most frequently in soap operas and other programming, aimed at women, of course. It is likely that in the coming year, the Nicorette brand anti-smoking products will increase their coverage, being outspent by rival Nicoderm. Rumors of a Nicorette product (perhaps a chewing gum) aimed at helping teens to stop smoking are not confirmed by the company."

Abstract
This paper is a stock analysis of Johnson & Johnson, Inc. and their efforts at reducing costs, increasing market share, meeting their shareholders and stakeholders as well as industry expectations while still fulfilling the very high levels of quality demanded by their customers. The author uses the Capital Asset Pricing Model, which takes into consideration the inherent risk that is associated with any investment and the rates of return, to determine that Johnson & Johnson's return on investment must be greater than a return of 6.07 percent. The paper concludes that, through new acquisitions, novel business strategies and a regular migration to cheaper labor pools, Johnson & Johnson Inc has become a strong force to be reckoned with in the highly competitive major drugs and healthcare industry; the author recommends a buy order at $60.

From the Paper
"The company has a long history of innovation and success. The founders created the first 'ready-made, ready-to-use surgical dressings' and initiated the way for 'application of the theory of antiseptic wound treatment' in the mid-1880's. These new products and services concepts literally reduced the threat of infection and disease in postoperative victims and helped save many lives in the early days of modern medicine. "The story begins with the discoveries of Sir Joseph Lister, a noted English surgeon, who identified airborne germs as a source of infection in the operating room. He called them, with grim aptness, the "invisible assassins." Medical science was beginning to understand, however imperfectly, the need for greater care in protecting the wound area."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"JNJ's move into markets that require more sophistication in drug development and production is also exemplified by their move into the market for medications to treat Schizophrenia, an area of their business that made up 18% of total 2006 pharmaceutical revenues. The anemia market is another source of challenge for the company as price erosion has been necessary to stem market share losses. We assume revenue erosion in the mid-single digits over the next 3 years with continued competition from Amgen and some modest negative effects from Roche's Cera, expected to launch in May 2007. The anemia franchise (Procrit/Eprex) made up 14% of JNJ's pharmaceutical sales in 2006.
The MD&D division has enjoyed industry leadership, particularly at the company's Cordis business. This previously fast-growing business made up 20% of JNJ's MD&D sales in 2006 and a significant proportion of its profit. Noteworthy competition from Boston Scientific, Abbott, and Medtronic is likely to erode market share beginning in 2007, driving Cordis sales declines in the range of 4% to 19% in 2007-10. The Conor acquisition is expected to be successful.The Consumer division should benefit from the recent acquisition of Pfizer's consumer line."

"On the basis of information provided by Hoover?s (2003), in 1885, in Brunswick, NJ, James and Edward Mead Johnson founded their medical products company and were soon joined by their brother, Robert in 1886. Robert had developed an antiseptic surgical dressing that he wanted to have produced through the company. This represented the beginnings of one of the leading companies in a multitude of industries, including pharmaceutical manufacturing, medical devices and diagnostics manufacturing, and consumer products manufacturing. As Johnson & Johnson moved into the 20th century, the company continued to develop and manufacture products that would long come to be associated its? name."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"As demonstrated above, J&J allows a great deal of operating freedom to its division Presidents. It is similar to the best practices in industry, such as those at Baxter, Abbott and GE, in identifying and encouraging managers to develop. J&J states that one of the advantages of its independent division structure is its ability to give a lot of responsibility to top operating managers quickly. Although the managers have a lot of operating freedom, they must nevertheless respond to corporate cultural values; this is a central condition for promotion of division executives."

From the Paper
"Johnson and Johnson does business within the healthcare sector and has industry membership in the major drug field. Because of the nature of this industry and the risk involved with drug manufacture, it can be very difficult to gage and predict its performance over time. Right now the drug industry is suffering the fallout from the recall of Celebrex. There are also other warnings being recently about other drugs such as Strattera. There has been much media scrutiny of the FDA and its prior approval of drugs like Accutane. What does this mean for the market and its companies? For the future, it may mean increased drug testing, which can be extremely costly, and time consuming."

Abstract
The paper defines rational organizations as those which seek to develop structure and coordinate their activities in response to technical requirements and in relation to the complexity of the task environment they face. The paper shows how 'Johnson & Johnson' has established its mission and vision by putting in place a rational organizational structure, defining reporting relationships, establishing a project management methodology and infrastructure, developing a communications plan in support of the group's global leadership role, creating position descriptions, and recruiting. A history of the company is also discussed.
From the Paper
"Johnson & Johnson attributes the success of its organization structure to its management of each separate part as part of a functioning, single entity. By grouping its global affiliates into three business segments and then overlaying each segment and its affiliates with a transparent structure of alignment, Johnson & Johnson has created a unique organization structure."

Abstract
This paper argues that Johnson & Johnson is a prime example of a company directed by "virtue ethics." As evidenced by the Tylenol crises, J&J executives do not resort to a moral calculus (Utilitarianism) or a deontological (rule-based) method of ethical decision making (Kant). The paper evaluates the company in terms of corporate control devices, stakeholder theory, the CSR pyramid, Kohlberg's theory of moral development and ethical theory.

"When all was said and done the recall of Tylenol* alone cost Johnson & Johnson over $100 million. Prior to the crisis, Tylenol held a 37% market share, outselling its four nearest competitors combined. Within weeks after the crisis its market share had dropped to 7%. When asked about the future of Tylenol, Madison Avenue guru Jerry Della Femina told a New York Times reporter "I don't think they (J&J) can ever sell another product under that name.""

"Johnson and Johnson" and "Exxon": Public Relations, 1999.

From the Paper
"In 1982, the Johnson and Johnson Corporation suffered a major blow when one of their top selling products, Tylenol, was laced with cyanide while on store shelves and resulted in seven deaths in the Chicago area. The company responded immediately to the problem and launched a highly successful public relations campaign which averted any long-lasting damage to the company's image. On the other hand, after the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska, Exxon responded so poorly and so slowly that the company still has not recovered its public image. This paper will look at the two disasters, how each company responded, and suggest a public relations strategy which will work for any major corporation placed in this situation.
In March of 1989, the Exxon Valdez, an oil tanker, ran aground on Bligh Reef, dumping 11 million gallons of crude oil..."
