The Classification and Hierarchy of Values ABSTRACT: I attempt to look into the issue of the ranks of values comprehensively and progressively. Anti-values can be classified into the following six categories by ascending order: (1) the act of destroying the earth-of annihilating humankind and all other living organisms; (2) the act of mass killing of people by initiating a war or committing treason; (3) the act of murdering or causing death to a human being; (4) the act of damaging the body
Food Wastage: Literature Review According to Food and agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FOA, 2013) food waste refers to food appropriate for human consumption being that is discarded, whether or not after it is kept beyond its expiry date or spoiled. The global volume of food wastage is estimated to be 1.6 Gtonnes (one tonne is equal to 100 kilograms), while the total wastage for the edible part of food is 1.3 Gtonnes. This equals out to be One-third of all food produced in the world

environmental framing as racially driven, in which people of color (i.e. minorities) are affected disproportionately by poor environmental practices. Communities of color throughout the United States have become the dumping grounds for our nation’s waste disposal, as well as home to agricultural and/or manufacturing industries that pollute the land. Government regulations and cultural practices have all contributed to environmental racism. The government’s policies have also negatively impacted low

Definition of downward communication is occurs when information and messages flow down through an organization's formal chain of command or hierarchical structure. In other words, messages and orders start at the upper levels of the organizational hierarchy and move down toward the bottom levels. Responses to downward communications move up along the same path. The aim is to help reduce the occurrence of communication rumors (rumors) in order to foster a pleasant work atmosphere, and indirectly increase
Although Alexander Pope and Voltaire present conflicting views on the purpose of man, both Pope and Voltaire in characterize humans as greedy, egoistical and constantly dissatisfied beings. Pope and Voltaire present many aspects of life, such as social hierarchy, knowledge and religion, but they discuss them in fairly different manners and perspectives. Pope believes in the mechanical way of life; humans have a set role and position in life and should not try to rise, rather maintain and fulfill their positions
informal, communications. Formal communication, such as that established by hierarchy for which personnel must strictly adhere to, will pass information and directives to subordinates from the top down (Stojkovic et al., 2008). When this is done, there will ultimately be noise involved that will distort the original message. Unfortunately, when communication passes through complex channels, such is the case with a complicated hierarchy; there is more opportunity that message will be distorted when it is
Counihan, a doctor of anthropology, food is so important that society has constructed rules regarding its consumption. Counihan emphasizes in her 1992 Anthropology Quarterly article, “Food Rules in the United States: Individualism, Control and Hierarchy,” that these rules serve as the “means through which human beings construct reality” (Counihan, 1992, p. 55). Counihan advocates for the importance of studying food rules by explaining that knowledge about how food is viewed in our culture can do
question focuses on is the view of Aristotle’s ideal state. The distinction between hierarchy and equality is at the heart of the understanding of Aristotle’s ideal state. He claims that an ideal state ought to be arranged to maximise the happiness of its citizens. So happiness together with political action is the telos of human life. This end can be reached by living a better ethical life. However, he endorses hierarchy over equality. On one hand we have the equality which benefits everyone; on the
Many human beings have been involved in a power struggle of some sort since the beginning of time. Between power in the business world, classroom, and government it is often clear who is subordinate and who is dominant. Subordinates may at times feel powerless; however, they can gain satisfaction out of aesthetics and hidden transcripts because of the personal freedoms it represents to them. James Scott wrote an essay, "Behind the Official Story", which is a discussion of subordinates and their
Most countries have their own unique social hierarchies, shaped by the cultures and history of the people. Social hierarchies are the way individuals are classified based on their skill sets, incomes and social standing and are usually passed down for many generations. Because of the factors that shape these hierarchies, it is impossible for a country to change overnight, but it can be done over time. Some countries have very clear structured hierarchy systems with defined rules and roles. Others

a privilege you hold. Social hierarchy is just this; a ranking of individuals based on their personal factors that divide them and creates a hierarchy. Social hierarchies are part of our everyday lives because positions we hold come assigned with different tasks. Those tasks are infused with power, privilege and prestige. Those factors lead to people having power, privilege and prestige over others, therefore causing a hierarchy. In my explanation of social hierarchy, I will be touching on two concepts:

ASDA's Hierarchial Structure A hierarchical structure has many levels. Each level is controlled by one person. A hierarchical company tends to be a very big company just like ASDA is. In a hierarchical company, instructions are generally passed down from one person to another until it gets to the bottom. If there was a problem in a hierarchical structure it would move up through the structure again from one person to another until it gets to where it is supported
