Recommended: Globalization AND Politics

I have always found Politics and Business fascinating. I am particularly looking forward to focusing on Marketing, Economic Environment, Finance and European politics in much more depth at university. My interest in Politics and Business is more than just academic. I often find myself debating parts of politics at the debate society or with friends. The range of opinion in politics means that I re-evaluate my opinions. I have a love for outside reading. My favourite is 'The Globalization of World Politics' by Baylis et al. I enjoy reading the political and business news of The Guardian and The Financial Times. This aids my learning as it gives me a broader understanding of my subjects beyond that of the syllabus.
My interest in Politics and Business are linked as the economy, change and the success of business is greatly influenced by UK government, the EU and the world. The interrelated nature of different economies and countries which is due to the acceleration of globalisation, this means political and economic decisions or social issues in one country can have a huge effect on ot...

  • A PESTLE Analysis of the UK Hospitality Industry

    1490 Words  | 3 Pages

    The political element in PESTLE represents how the government can influence the economy by setting rules and regulations which they have to adhere. An example of this is that the national minimum wage increases and now due to a new law in place, companies must provide pensions to eligible employees and every company needs to comply with this and stay within the law. Another factor is the political unrest in certain countries. This can take effect on the hospitality industry which can in turn affect the economy and business environment. The threats of terrorism are still very much alive; an example of this was the terror attacks in London on the 7th of July 2005 where the suicide attacks left more than 700 people injured according to The Guardian (2005) which brought concern for the people and the economy. It leaves a fear in people’s minds and the way the marketers can adapt to this is by promoting UK based hotels and holidays companies, with the increased threat of terrorism and political instability people will be more concern about their safety and decide not to travel abroad.

  • Essay On Being A Democrat

    460 Words  | 1 Pages

    I didn't start off as a Liberal when I was younger, I identified with being a Democrat. I think the only reason why I used to identify as being a Democrat because as an African-American I thought that was the right thing to be. In black community’s young black children are taught to be only Democrat because being a Republican is only for rich white people. As I got older and began to do my research about both the Democratic and Republican Party I soon realized that there was a lot of things that I didn't like about either party. While I do tend to agree more with Democrats I still can't fully commit to being a Democrat. When I was younger, I didn't know that there was such a thing as being a liberal I always thought that you only have two choices Democrat or Republican. But that all changed when one day in my history class in high school we talked about the different political parties. We of course talked about Democrats and Republicans, which I already knew about, but then my teacher started to explain what a liberal was. My teacher

    Many people fail to realise the importance of our economy, how diverse and interactive it is to our daily lives and the distinct role it plays in our constantly evolving economic climate. My initial interest stemmed from my lack of knowledge about the UK economy; resulting in the research about our recent financial crisis and from there it grew tenfold. I began to observe the situations around me from a different perspective, and with the help of micro and macroeconomic objectives, which are the fundamental foundations; I have been able to pursue this social science in far greater depth and understanding. It is a growing ambition of mine to explore what effect daily transactions and the conduct of millions of people like me has on our future in a domestic and global aspect. Further developing my study of economics will ensure I am able to explore such views to a higher level.

  • Personal Statement For Public Administration

    1480 Words  | 3 Pages

    Two years ago, I was writing my letter of intent for my application to the Master of Public Administration (MPA) with a concentration in Healthcare Administration revealing my failures, and most significantly, that I lost my passion and didn’t know where to start. I also conceded that I was relatively unaware of the field of Public Administration (PA). Little did I know, examining PA theories would enable me to connect the final dots in the big picture of my life, where I came from, who I’d come to be, what choices I’d made, the relationships I nurtured, and my dreams and desires for the future. Although confidence came slowly and awkwardly, I discovered my desire to contribute to the advancement of public health policies. I am writing to express my interest in continuing to the Doctoral program in the School of Public Administration at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO). I am absolutely interested in the commitment to the advancement of knowledge, and confident my experience in higher education and academic research will contribute to my successful completion of the Ph.D. program, in the specialization area of public policy.

    “A means by which individuals and interest groups compete to shape government’s impact on society’s problems and goals.” Politics is easily defined. It is the concept behind the words that is more difficult to understand. Though politics is the primary method of communicating with government, this is not the only time politics are used. Immediate, individual interests, wants, and needs must be satisfied, as well as societal problems. The pursuit of interest is the purpose and initiation of political behavior.
