electoral systems reform process in the early decades of the twentieth century The study of the electoral systems reform process in the early decades of the twentieth century and the embracing of proportional representation by some nations have been in the middle of comparative research lately (Leemann & Mares, 2014, 461). Although electoral refinement persists to be a live issue in Canada at both the provincial and federal levels, there has been a slight meticulous and methodical work on what proportional representation would signify for Canada’s party system as well as the formation of governments (Lavergne, 2017, 1). Proportional representation is an electoral system whereby the allocation of seats in parliament should be equivalent to the cast votes. For instance, if a particular political party has attained a 30% of the total votes cast, 30% of the number of seats allocated in the House of Representatives should be from that particular party. The electoral system used in Canada is known as “first past the post” system. In this system, the elected candidate is the one who gets the most votes…

 arguments on the intersectionality of race and sex The intersection is defined as the interconnected nature of social categorizations such as race, gender and class as they apply to a specific group, regarded as creating independent and overlapping systems of disadvantage. The main idea in the reading is to convey how black women are discriminated in society despite being in minority groups of sex and race. Although women are distinguished in the US, black women experience adverse levels of discriminations when compared to white women. This is evidenced in the case of DeGraffenreid v General Motors, when a lawsuit against black women, discrimination was dismissed as sex discrimination because the company was employing white women. In relation to race, black women also experience adverse discrimination compared to black males. Generally, the article presents arguments on the intersectionality of race and sex. The author, Crenshaw, presents her arguments in four sections, with each section presenting a specific argument supporting the main argument of the article. The author organizes her work in this mode for easy identification of the main argument in…

The structure of a Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium Model (DSGE) helps us to understand…

Discussion: Patient Preferences and Decision Making The engagement of patients in healthcare is not a new occurrence, although it was not initially a component of the healthcare system as also indicated by Sherman (2014).  Currently, patients want to have an input in the clinical procedures used in managing their conditions and they also want to highlight the endpoints that are best suited for their health care needs (Levitan, 2017). It means that further research on patient preference must be conducted to determine how and when to incorporate patient preferences when making health decisions in managing patient conditions. Altarum (2019) indicates that the incorporation of patient preference in healthcare goes beyond the conventional informed consent and is now an interdependent, interpersonal undertaking that comprises patient-provider collaboration in making patient care decisions. The effect of such collaboration reflects the expertise of the providers as well as the distinguished preferences of the patient, hence leading to better health outcomes and reduced costs of care. Such outcomes include reduced medical errors as well as improved patient safety. The critical aspects needed in ensuring the…

Risk Assessment: Toothpaste Tablets in India Risk Analysis Introduction Currently, toothpaste tubes cannot be recycled. Colgate, a well-known global giant in the production of toothpaste, has been developing a recyclable container for five years and is planning to unveil it in 2020 (Suja, 2007). But Lindsay McCormick, the creator and CEO of Bite finds this move as insufficient. Her company is committed to being the most sustainable oral care business in the world, revolutionizing the industry entirely. The Bite produces low-waste, tubing-free oral care bites, which aren100% gluten-free, vegan, and free of harmful chemicals. Try one before you brush, and you will realize that the minty pellet has the same effect as regular toothpaste while brushing your teeth to refresh your breath. The bites are encased inside supportable, recyclable packaging glass bottles, and refills are sold in compostable sachets. Brush by Bites. Another advantage is that the customer gets to receive their purchase on a zero-plastic packaging (Harish, 2009). However, in the case of India, most of these companies are offering online purchases and still earning the right amount of…

The growing investment by luxury brands in the direct distribution channels Luxury brands are mostly sold through wholesale mode, and they have focussed less on direct selling over the past few years. According to the study by Bain & Co. in their Global Luxury Report 2019, they noted that there was a rise in the retail buyers of luxury brands (BAIN & Co. – Global Luxury Report 2019. Page 15). Luxury brands such as Cartier have continuously ignored retail selling, and they have decided to focus on wholesale selling and advertising. In the recent past, however, the brands have started focusing on the direct distribution channels. The reason they have previously targeted the wholesale model of selling and marketing is because of the nature of their products, which is for luxury and not the everyday household and daily use. The prices and the fame of the products make them out of reach of the ordinary person, thus the decision to focus on the wholesale model of marketing. This, however, has started changing with the focus on the direct distribution channels,…
