Write a 13 pages paper on trans-national corporations and their host governments. Basically, TNCs’ aggregate yearly sales would correspond to or are greater than the annual gross domestic product (GDP) of most countries. A classic example would be Itochu Corporation’s sales which exceed the gross domestic product of Austria, while those of Royal Dutch/Shell run parallel with Iran’s GDP. Together, the sales of Mitsui and General Motors are greater than the GDPs of Denmark, Portugal, and Turkey combined, and US$50 billion more than all the GDPs of the countries in sub-Saharan Africa (UNCTAD 1994).

Because of their considerable size, TNCs are likely to control and dictate in industries where output and markets are oligopolistic or converged in the hands of a comparatively small number of firms. The top five car and truck manufacturers are responsible for nearly 60% of motor vehicles’ global revenues. The five leading oil companies account for over 40% of the industry’s world market share (The Economist 1993).

TNCs’ operations cover the whole world. however, they are based for the most part in Western Europe, North America, and Japan. The Swiss electrical engineering giant ABB has facilities in 140 nations, while Royal Dutch/Shell digs up for oil in 50 countries, conducts refining activities in 34 homelands, and markets its products in 100 nation-states. Offices of the US food processing firm H.J. Heinz cover six continents and Cargill, the US’s largest grain company operates in 54 countries. Britain’s major chemical firm ICI has manufacturing operations in 40 nations and sales affiliates in 150 countries (Hoover 1993).

The term transnational corporation means a “for-profit enterprise” which is explicitly identified by two salient features — 1) engages in enough business activities — including sales, distribution, extraction, manufacturing, and research and development — outside the country of origin so that it is dependent financially on operations in two or&nbsp.more countries. 2) management decisions are made based on regional or global alternatives (Hadari 1973).&nbsp.

I need some assistance with these assignment. analysis of medical malpractice Thank you in advance for the help! Mr. Smith signed a consent form but only agreed to the operation because Mrs. Smith had privately threatened to divorce him if he did not. ?As a result of the operation (which was competently performed), Mr. Smith’s tear drainage improved, but he suffered a side effect of poor night vision. The risk of night vision problems was 2 percent, but many doctors consider it a minor problem as it has a limited adverse effect (due to the fact that people are usually asleep at ? night) and the operation is highly effective at improving tear drainage. Mr. Smith is a taxi driver and insists that he would not have had the operation had he known the risk. He is no longer able to work at night and has suffered a loss of income. ?In July, Mr. Smith visited Dr. Zeus, his GP, complaining that his left eye was still sore. Dr. Zeus suspected cancer of the eyelid. The computers were down so Dr. Zeus wrote a note to his receptionist asking him to request a referral to a specialist for Mr. Smith, but the note got lost. As a result, the referral was delayed by 4 weeks. ?In August, Mr. Smith was seen by Dr. Foster who diagnosed an aggressive malignant eyelid cancer (which was unrelated to Mr. Smith’s previous tear drainage problem). Expert evidence is that symptoms of the eyelid cancer would have been visible to a reasonably competent ophthalmologist when the tear drainage surgery was performed.

Write 5 pages thesis on the topic conduct an historical and stylistic analysis. Bowman. This paper will&nbsp.analyse&nbsp.both the historical and stylistic analysis of the old Greeley Court also called the Weld County Courthouse and Guggenheim Hall. The Weld County Courthouse&nbsp.was constructed&nbsp.by two general contractors known as Varnum of Denver and Seerie between 1915 and 1917. Bowman Creation (2) note that its construction occurred during the&nbsp.period&nbsp.when Weld County was the second wealthiest County in Colorado State. It has a rich history complimented by its&nbsp.remarkable,&nbsp.architectural style classified as Beaux-Arts style, widely used for public buildings and other&nbsp.outstanding&nbsp.structures in the 1900s (Munsterberg 2007). Bowman, the designer, got his inspiration from the neo-classical&nbsp.style&nbsp.of architecture, which reflects the&nbsp.influence&nbsp.of the Palladian style, as well as the classical Roman and Greek architectural styles. For this reason, the Weld County Courthouse building looks quite similar to the Roman and Greek buildings from all sides. Moreover, Bowman chose the classical Revival style for Weld County Courthouse because he felt that its architectural elements reflected the simplicity,&nbsp.dignity&nbsp.of its purpose. The exterior of the&nbsp.building&nbsp.shows three-storey columns that support the cornice of the building, dominated by limestone and granite walls. In the courthouse, there is a marble staircase that leads up to the main floor (Bowman Creation 2). Source: W.N. Bowman Creation. “Weld County’s Court House: a jewel on the Plains.” Weld County Government (2007): 2. Additionally, the total&nbsp.cost&nbsp.of its construction, which included new&nbsp.wood&nbsp.furniture, was $414,302.05. The collection of the money was through taxes where for every $1,000 of taxable&nbsp.property&nbsp.that people owned, they were to pay&nbsp.tax&nbsp.of $5.25. After the collection of the money, the Weld County Courthouse&nbsp.was officially dedicated&nbsp.and paid for in cash on July 4th 1917. The court is a four-storey building, with combined ideas and elements of the Gregorian, Early Classical Revival, Adam, and the Greek revival styles. It&nbsp.is&nbsp.mainly&nbsp.built&nbsp.of Gypsum, Granite, Indiana limestone, terra cotta, marble and bricks. According to Weld Bowman Creation, (3), these are characteristics of Classical Revival Architecture and Neo-classical. The contractors used large blocks of granite in the construction of the foundation and steel trusses and riveted steel girders to&nbsp.form&nbsp.the roof&nbsp.support&nbsp.and&nbsp.floor&nbsp.respectively. In addition, the interior walls are four inches&nbsp.thick&nbsp.and built using hard-burned&nbsp.brick&nbsp.with partitions of gypsum tile. The doors at all entrances, as well as all the light fixtures and railings in the court, are bronze or solid brass. However, the contractors used&nbsp.quite&nbsp.little&nbsp.wood&nbsp.in the building of the courthouse except in the&nbsp.hand&nbsp.railings and furnishings as shown below. Source: W.N. Bowman Creation. “Weld County’s Court House: a jewel on the Plains.” Weld County Government (2007): 3. Each of the four floors portrays&nbsp.classical&nbsp.architectural elements that reflect certain influences from the Greek and Roman architecture. For instance, the ground floor consists of black and&nbsp.white&nbsp.handcrafted tile floors that have equilateral cross designs bordering the original walls. The floor has a&nbsp.crooked&nbsp.cross&nbsp.that dates as far as the Neolithic period, but it was a sign of&nbsp.success&nbsp.and excellent&nbsp.

Complete 4 pages APA formatted article: Portraying Of The Atomic Bombing Of Hiroshima In Literature. Yukio uses his book “Confessions of a Mask” that had been written in 1949 to elucidate to us about a young man named Kochan who was suffering from erotic fantasies of men, violence, and beauty. Yukio illuminates that Kochan had been raised during Japan’s epoch of Imperialism and right-wing aggressiveness and this made him to struggles from a very early age to fit into society. For that reason, Yukio has used his main character, Kochan, to describe us how socially determined masculinity roles are well-defined by male-controlled culture. The novel portrays the demonization by the society of Kochan, who scars himself emotionally and physically by retreating into a mask of heterosexuality. Subsequently, Ibuse uses his book “Black Rain” written in 1966 to elucidate to us about the life of a young girl named Yasuko. Abuse uses his novel to help us to apprehend that Yasuko hoped to be married after the war, but her health is in question due to radiation she was exposed to. Shigematsu Shizuma is the main narrator and niece to Yasuko is regretting having asked her to come to Hiroshima as this has caused his nieces problem. Therefore, this had made Shizuma compile all accounts related to the Hiroshima bombing in order to be able to convince the family and the man who will show some interest in marrying Yasuko. Therefore, this paper shall candidly examine the ways in which Ibuse and Mishima portray the soreness of isolation that Yasuko and Kochan experiences in society.

Both Abuse and Mishima have used their main character Yasuko and Kochan to designate how they have struggled passionately to fit into Japanese society. Due to their weaknesses, that has been caused by the bombing of Hiroshima, Yasuko and Kochan had faced more challenges that made them feel isolated by society.
