Abstract
This paper evaluates a capitalistic market (the U.S.), a socialist/capitalistic market (Canada), and a developing market (Brazil), which can be broadly classified based on political, social, and cultural issues, to conceptually and practically understand the markets and the competition. The author points out that the generic pharmaceutical industry is flourishing in Canada; it accounts for approximately 15% of the sales of drugs in the country.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Social science, economic, corporate and business strategy, public and government policies all are considered to play a significant role in the success or failure of an organization at any location around the world. In the modern marketplace, no fixed or definitive strategy can be assumed to be most effective. What may be appropriate for one company in the same industry may not exactly work for another company. Contemporary management theories place great emphasis on these variables; consequently, marketing strategies also use many of these theories to understand and evaluate the market for the product and services of the organization."

Abstract
This paper reviews and discusses "Gryphon" by Charles Baxter, "The Use Of Force" by William Carlos Williams and "A Small, Good Thing" by Raymond Carver. The paper focuses specifically on the use of irony to dramatize conflict in these three tales. According to the paper, conflict is the essence of all good storytelling.
From the Paper
"William Carlos William's short story "The Use of Force" also ironically depicts someone who must be cruel, only to be kind. The conflict of the story centers on a young child with a fever, and the doctor who is trying to save the little girl. The irony of the story is that the doctor must examine the child's throat, but the child regards the doctor as an intruder, and the doctor must force himself, violently, upon the child, to help her live. Irony is also manifest in the child's perspective, because the child quite reasonably sees the strange man who wishes to look at her throat as a dangerous intruder. Her parents, filled with love for Mathilda, have not forced her to open her mouth. The medical professional, in contrast, is capable of some objectivity in the situation. He tries at first, like the parents, to coax her, but to no avail. "Such a nice man, put in the mother. Look how kind he is to you. Come on, do what he tells you to. He won't hurt you."

Baxter Healthcare Corporation
From the Paper
"Not only hospital management, but also manufacturing organizations have taken responsibility for becoming familiar with customers and their needs (Ragsdell, 2002). Here also the communicative role of healthcare management is vitally important. Hospital management should thus conduct surveys among patients to ensure that all needs are met. If there is a need that could be met by improved manufacturing techniques, these should be communicated to the manufacturing organization. In this way the entire system works together in order to focus on the requirements of the customer."

From the Paper
"Competition is very intense in the modern day organization. Companies are increasingly striving to differentiate their products and services in the market in order to gain higher profits and a greater market share. Portfolio management, product life cycle management, decision analysis and risk analysis are becoming some of the strategies that have to be used by managers and executives all over the world. For-profit organizations are investing a lot of money and human resources to help identify variables that can make their organizations competitive in their respective markets. Failure in managing any one variable can result in the overall failure of the organization."
