Abstract
This paper discusses the nature of Indian economic, financial market and banking system reforms. According to this paper, the majority of these reforms were began in 1991 following India's decision to open up its economy to free-market principals and to liberalize its capital markets. These moves necessitate deep and substantial changes to India's banking system.
From the Paper
"It could be said that India's current monetary and fiscal policy began in the early 1990s following the government's determination to change from a heavily autocratic, socialist type governmental policy to a more open, free market, capital system. India's monetary and fiscal policy, which is based on the Rupee, was tasked by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to affect several changes on fiscal policy in order liberalize its economy: 1) increase petroleum product prices, 2) increase net taxes, 3) improve tax compliance, 4) unload up to 20% of equity in public enterprises, 5) cuts subsidies, 6) reduce defense expenditures and 7) exercise restraint on GDP expenditures (Desai 25)."

Abstract
This paper looks at modernity and how architectural modernism captures the economic, cultural and political phenomena re-making India in the twenty-first century. The paper focuses on the architectural work of Joseph Allen Stein and discusses how his work encapsulates the new virility and promise of post-colonial India as it unshackled itself from generations of British rule after the end of World War II. The paper suggests that the key to India can be seen in the monuments it builds to itself.
From the Paper
"At the same time, modernist architecture survives as a political statement insofar as it also masks infelicities that Indians may not want outsiders to see. For example, the city of Bombay is a modern city organized like few others - but that modern image of looming skyscrapers and cleverly-conceived infrastructure merely papers over elements of nativism and communalism that threaten Bombay's gleaming international image (Prakash, 2006). Therefore, just as modern-day India uses impressive modernist structures to announce its arrival on the world stage, it also uses those same structures and architectural embellishments to hide from view darker national traditions and vestiges of its past it wishes to remain unseen."

Post-Modernism, Post-War Critical Theory and Marxism, 2003.
A comparative analysis of post-modernist theories with post-war critical theory.

Abstract
This paper embarks on an examination of the work of post-war critical theorists Adorno, Horkheimer and Marcuse who capture the dominant themes of post-war Critical Theory well. It proceeds to show how many parallels are evident between post-war Critical Theory and the more recently formulated postmodernist theories. An examination of postmodernist theories then ensues, taking as exemplars the work of Baudrillard, Jameson and Harvey. It concludes by arguing that postmodernist theories do indeed revisit the critique of modern culture, which post-war Critical Theory began and they do so without the political commitment to Marxism. An explanation for this follows, discussing the events which ?shattered a whole generation of French intellectual?s beliefs in the moral supremacy of Marxism? and sheds light on the climate which ultimately paved way for the emergence of postmodernism.
From the Paper
"Advertising encourages individuals to view themselves primarily as consumers, and under the guise of entertainment, audiences are manipulated into accepting and conforming to existing society. Kellner captures this sentiment well claiming ?advertising progressively fuses in style and technique with the entertainment of the culture industry, which in turn can be read as a series of advertisements for existing society and the established way of life? (1989:33). The culture industry is designed to discourage individuals from challenging the given order, to think critically and indeed, think for themselves. ?The need, which might resist control, has already been suppressed by the control of individual consciousness? (1995: 121). Adorno and Horkheimer show how the products of the culture industry are similar to those produced in a factory, sharing their belief that ?under monopoly all mass culture is identical?. (1995: 121)."

Canadian Employment Prospects, 2007.
This paper looks at employment prospects for university graduates in Canada.

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses the employment prospects of university graduates. Among some of the applicable data addressed are overall employment figures related to unemployment rates, characteristics of the labor force and employment by sector. The conclusion is that while technology is one of the most promising prospects to take university training in, it is also one of the most susceptible to the global employment strategies of offshoring and outsourcing. However, the writer points out that the majority of industries in the Canadian economy rely on sectors that typically require university training or graduation. The writer concludes that while there are certainly other avenues towards developing valuable skills applicable in the marketplace, increasingly, one of the best places to acquire those skills is in the university setting and certainly through graduation from a structured academic program in a given field or industry.
Outline:
Overview
Employment Trends
Prospects by Industry
Employment Outlook
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Recent trends in the Canadian employment sector reveal an active employment market for university graduates who are graduating from certain fields and concentrations. The inverse of these observations is that university graduates who graduate in fields or concentrations that have little relevance to the economic activity driving the overall market, are at a disadvantage and quickly develop a detachment from the workforce as research at the University of Alberta has indicated. However, simply having completed a university program through graduation does seem to imply that the employment prospects for the individual doing so are more promising than those who have not."

Abstract
This paper takes a look at the quality of work life as reported by African-Americans to be "plagued by inequality and lack of opportunity or stability" and examines the relationships that exist between familial influences, job market prospects and the environment. This paper intends to evaluate the impacts family rearing and environmental influence have on African-Americans' perceived job market opportunities and self reported quality of work life.
Contents:
Introduction
Need for the Study
Preliminary Review of the Literature
Methodology and Research Design
Discussion/Conclusions
From the Paper
"Many African Americans report their work life includes less than optimal working conditions, meager earnings, little autonomy and much instability which often results in decreased job satisfaction and perceived job opportunities (Riley, 2005). Still other research related to social psychology suggests "quality of work life may have pervasive consequences on one's sense of worth and sense of control" and that perceived job satisfaction can "spillover and influence behaviors in other spheres of life" (Riley, 1) Hence social psychological outcomes are affected by job related perceptions and self evaluation as well as general life satisfaction (Riley, 1).
The purpose of this research proposal is an evaluation of the impacts family rearing and environmental influence have on African American's perceived job market opportunities and self reported quality of work life. As an aside the researcher will also evaluate whether familial and environmental factors impact African American's perceived self esteem and subsequent success on the job and at home. To accomplish this the researcher will evaluate the following questions: (1) what if any familial influences determine job satisfaction and employment opportunities, (2) what if any environmental influences are likely to contribute to job status and perceived quality of work life, (3) whether other factors contribute to job status and self reported measures of self worth and self esteem and whether (4) self esteem directly or indirectly influences job status, environment or familial relationships among African American adults.

Abstract
This paper discusses how at first glance, the economic prospects in Saudi Arabia might seem exceptional. After all Saudi Arabia is home to one of the largest reserves of oil in the world. The paper goes on to say that the industrial world quite literally turns on the oil that is produced in Saudi Arabia and some of its neighboring nations. Given that fact, it would seem that Saudi Arabians should be living well with a bright future ahead of them.
From the Paper
" While the current government has certainly taken great strides towards improving the economic situation in the nation, there are still significant troubles in Saudi Arabia, ones that will not easily be surmounted despite a recent surge in economic growth. One of biggest economic changes that has occurred in Saudi Arabia has happened over the past twenty or thirty years regarding per capita income."

"Introduction
Brazil is the giant of Latin America, with over half its population and a larger economy than the rest of the continent combined. Even by global standards it is a giant, with one of the ten largest world economies and the fifth-largest land area (Hoover's Handbook, 1993, p. 520). The potentials and problems of the Brazilian economy are in proportion to the country itself. Brazil possesses great potential natural wealth, with a broad range of resources. The Brazilian economy can also lay claim to a thriving high-tech sector, and its arms industry has achieved notable success in export markets. "

"FREE MARKET REFORMS IN RUSSIA
This research reviews free market reforms in the Russian Federation. Where appropriate, the focus of this review is on the banking industry.
The emergence of the Russian Republic as an international player in its own right has occurred since 1991. With the demise of the Soviet Union, the former Soviet Socialist Republics became politically sovereign nations, among which was the Russian Federation, which includes the Republic of Russia and other autonomous republics. Hopes and dreams ran high in newly independent Russia, where the citizenry expected foreign investors to set up factories that would transform cheap raw materials from Russia into manufactured goods for export to other European countries. As is true of most dreams, things look different in the.."

Abstract
A good home is clearly a basic human need. This fact is clearly stated in Article 25 of the Universal Declaration of Human rights adopted by the United Nations Organization (UNO) in 1948. This paper examines both the causes of the global hosing crises and its impact on the environment as well as on the health of the people. Also examined in this paper are the steps taken to address this global problem in various countries. Outline Introduction Causes of the Global Housing Crises Population Growth Urbanization Natural and Political Disasters Poverty and Economic Stagnation The Impact of the Global Housing Crises Poor Housing and Health Poor Housing and Environmental Pollution
From the Paper
"The economic situation in a country could also affect the state of housing in that country. In some countries, a lot of people are so poor that they could barely afford the basic necessities of life such as food and clothing. It is thus an uphill task for people under this category to afford descent living places. High interest rates and inflation push bank loan payments far out of reach of many families, and soaring utility costs make it difficult for people to get ahead. Unemployment rates as high as 20 per cent in some lands make it almost impossible to make ends meet. These and other factors has forced hundreds of millions in every corner of the earth to settle for substandard housing. People live in old buses, shipping containers, and cardboard boxes. "

The succeeding pages will also examine the impact of casino gaming upon the local community in terms of its economic impact and in terms of its impact socially in the areas of crime, addiction and mental health. Finally, the paper will conclude with a summation of the available evidence and a recommendation on the direction the City of Toronto should take."

The Prospects of Power in the Pacific, 2005.
An examination of the changing nature of the U.S.-Japanese alliance as it relates to Japanese militarization and the contemporary world order.

Abstract
After World War II, Japan signed a constitution prohibiting it from establishing a military force limited to self-defense and incapable of regional or global power projection. However, in recent years, Article 9 of the Japanese constitution, which prevents it from having a major military force, has been continuously reinterpreted to allow for a greater role for the Japanese military in world affairs. This paper shows that the rising threat that China may pose to Japan's regional preeminence, and Japan's own desires to attain global political and military power to match its economic power may lead Japan to an ever more militarily aggressive foreign policy. What this means for the future of the U.S.-Japanese alliance, and in particular its role as a counterbalance to Chinese assertiveness, is the subject of this paper.
From the Paper
"Japan faces regional threats not unlike those of the Cold War from China and North Korea, but the most significant change in Japanese foreign policy as it relates to the US-Japanese alliance is in the aspirations of Japan as a nation and its role to the international system. In recent time, Japan has been campaigning to gain a permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council. The significance of attaining this position is immense firstly because it would put Japan on an equal footing with the other permanent members - the US, United Kingdom, France, Russia and China - and give it veto rights on Security Council resolutions. Many analysts see this as a major step in the equalization of Japan's international economic and political power."
