Report on Amcor Technologies Introduction Learning is not just about how one talks or dresses or furnishes their home; it is also not about what type of job the person does are how much money the person makes, or even not on whether the individual is an A grade student or someone who merely have gone to schools. Adult learners learn the best through personal experience throughout their long life. In this assignment, there are brief discussions on the Elaine Cox cross-culture competency reflections, organizational cultural environment, and managerial work motivation, followed by a relevant conclusion.

In an attempt that we made to explore to…

Death of Abraham Lincoln by Walt Whitman and Deportations from Europe by Hannah Arendt Regarding the two pieces of writing, Death of Abraham Lincoln by Walt Whitman and Deportations from Europe by Hannah Arendt, the exhibition of historical narrative is evident. However, it is essential to underscore that Adolf Eichmann is left out of the historical narrative as compared to Abraham Lincoln, whose narrative dominates the lecture by Walt Whitman. While Abraham Lincoln’s historical narrative touches on the massive contribution of the president, especially during the civil war, Adolf Eichmann has no such significant contribution apart from been an executioner of the orders from the central agencies of Berlin. For instance, upon the realization of the unreliability of Werner Best in carrying out the required orders, Eichmann had to send one of the best men from his office – Rolf Gunther to Denmark to complete the unfinished business regarding the Jewish deportation. This is an indication of the caliber of roles that were entrusted with Adolf Eichmann. His roles and actions were even opposed by some of the German officials…

Anthropological Theory             During the initial years of anthropology, the current perception of anthropologists and the other existing scholars was that culture evolves or develops progressively and uniformly. Evolutionists built upon the success that Charles Darwin presented by his theory of evolution, but they did not draw inspiration from the central contribution of this idea of natural selection(Long & Chakvow). Instead, they opted to track how culture develops with time. In the same way, it is thought that species evolve into complex forms, cultures were also thought to increase progressively from simple states to complex states(Ingold, 2016). Previously, many scholars thought that most of the societies have the same series of stages that they pass through to arrive where they are today(Enke, 2018). It was thought that change principally originated from the culture and therefore development was determined internally. One of the theories in anthropology that explains the existence of culture exhaustively is social evolution, which is addressed in the foregoing paragraphs. Since the enlightenment, people accepted the evolutionary progression of societies. Both Scottish and French moral and social philosophers…

Stylistic analysis on Toni Morrison: Commencement Address, Wellesley College, 2004 Smith (1992: 75) spoke succinctly to the concern about loss of intelligibility across varieties: ‘My response … is that for at least the last two hundred years there have been English-speaking people in some parts of the world who have (c) 2011 Hong Kong University Press. All Rights Reserved. not been intelligible to other English-speaking people in other parts of the world. It is a natural phenomenon when any language becomes so widespread.’ By adopting this commonsense and empirically arguable stance on the issue, Smith does away with recourse to emotional sorts of reactions to the spread of English. The reflexive cry ‘something must be done!’ is set aside in favour of a reasoned exploration. Holistic approaches to intelligibility are difficult to carry off: it becomes clear, as illustrated in the examples above, that there are various levels of language and of the perception of language at work in communicating with other speakers of English. Strevens’ proposal of separating accent from the other layers of language was a step in…

Non-white voices are becoming increasingly heard             There is a lot of authority and respect given to the whites in the current century as compared to the non-white. In simple terms, the non-whites are the minority as far as the media is concerned. A lot of attention gets given to the people of white origin because of various reasons. It is a norm that the current society is trying to run away from. The difference between these two groups is evident in the upper and middle classes. The exclusion of the non-whites people from the media covers their voicers, making them not get heard by the general society.
