Saudi Labor Force: Challenges and Ambitions             Notably, Saudi Arabia has considerably changed its economic structure from nomadism to oil-based. Currently, the country is undergoing significant economic transformations, which are intended to address issues like overreliance on the oil sector and labor challenges. A fundamental problem facing Saudi Arabia is the low labor participation by its citizens. At the initial stages of oil discovery, the working population was largely composed of Saudi nationals. However, in the 1970s, reliance on foreign laborers surpassed that of locals (Al-Asmari, 2008). At the time, foreign labor was mainly from regional Arab countries, but later changed to incorporate workers from across the globe. The high number of expatriate workers is attributed to the expansion of the private sector, the small Saudi population, restriction of women, and the high number of young people. The percentage of women in the Saudi workforce is significantly low, in comparison with the rest of the world. Although Saudi Arabia experiences an increasing demand for labor, the country’s economic system has continuously restricted women’s participation. While males account for 54.4 percent…

Sovereignty paper Short Answer Section 1 Question 1 Sovereignty refers to the absolute rights which states have over their decisions to act, determine as well as follow their individual self-interest in relation to matters regarding domestic conduct. The current world is globalized hence an enormous increase in the movement of capital, people, and technology, without forgetting massive international trade growth. With the increase in global trade, sovereignty is evident through the overlapping national claims, as well as the surge in nationalism. Furthermore, sovereignty has created room for political and social fabric, including taxation, different culture, human rights, and even education.

Public Service Motivation and Organizational Performance  Throughout history, individuals develop particular attributes, motives, and aspirations before determining the occupation that would help them achieve their goals. Even though individuals may have the drive towards working in a particular industry or organization, different factors, including the reward system, leadership style, organizational climate, and the work structure, often influence the motivation of the individual. Public service motivation is an employment factor or attribute that explains the desire among individuals to serve other people while linking personal actions with the interest of the public.

Geostrategic             From the mid-1800s, the United States, along with other colonial countries, laid their claims to the South China Sea because of its vast resourcefulness. These countries faced little or no resistance at the time because they had naval superiority. However, different countries, especially those around the South China Sea, have continued to improve their marine prowess. As a result, the superpowers that initially claimed the area are facing resistance from the upcoming countries. This resistance is because these countries, such as China, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Taiwan, have realized that the area could give them massive benefits that would help them experience significant growth. These countries demand ownership of the land based on ancestral history and ties. The sea borders their countries, and they believe that they have control over the area because it is part of their country. They claim that the area was forcefully taken from them back when they could not fight for what was theirs. Based on the geographic locations, these countries have more substantial claims to the area than the United States. According…

Anomie and Strain Theories The term anomie began to appear in social theories from the works of French theorist Emile Durkheim. It started as a concept that explains the abnormal division of labor. It has become a significant idea in explaining the social consequences of huge, heterogeneous, and urban societies such as the United States. According to Durkheim, self-interest, limitless ambitions, and an insatiable desire for success directs the behavior of human. Therefore, it is essential to constrain human behavior to guarantee healthy coexistence in society. As a result, regulation is necessary to create clarity, security, and order in society. Therefore, for Durkheim, anomie means the breakdown of social order as well as an individual and collective loss According to Deflem (2015), anomie is a Greek word meaning lack of the law. Durkheim’s ideas have a significant influence on Robert Merton and strain theory and modern theories about punishment for criminal activities. Merton introduced the anomie theory to the American population for the study of crime and deviance. Therefore, the initial ideas about anomie were a departure from the early…

 poverty is a predictable and acquired condition In the United States, so many people are convinced that poverty is a predictable and acquired condition, especially when one is from a particular section of society. This is a misleading stereotype that has led to the conception of the underclass in the country. The existence of the underclass is primarily a social construction and is often used as a political weapon (Ruggles, 175). Mostly, this concept is intrinsically linked to poverty and is commonly used to symbolize the elucidation of these state of affairs. Most of the problems surrounding the idea of the underclass revolve around the public understanding of poverty. For instance, poverty may be defined in a behavioral aspect where the people in this class are believed to be morally contaminated with no ambitions, and thus an economic burden (Rodgers, 13). This understanding of poverty makes it harder to find solutions for the poor in society. Therefore, the concept of the underclass of poverty is an ideological construction. Like many ideological constructions, it is not a permanent concept and may…

FEDERALIST 51 Question 1 Power separation in government aims at reducing conflicts hence jeopardizing a country’s operations. For instance, whenever two branches in government are working on different issues, the likelihood of engaging in a conflict is minimal. As such, the system to separate power forces government branches to focus on key issues that need to be addressed. Question 2 Madison articulated that only the constitution granted the power to every branch of government hence did not believe in the complete separation. So, Madison believed that only honorable ambitions to work for the people’s interests would help attain a complete power separation (Madison, 1788). Question 3 Madison’s comments on the need to take auxiliary precautions were castigated by his fear of the great difficulty of founding. Madison outlines that any government must develop strong institutional power in order to control the governed (Madison, 1788). Furthermore, the auxiliary precautions included the separation of power between the three branches of government, including executive, legislature, and executive. Secondly, the division of power and federalism serves as another form of auxiliary precaution. The separation…
