Its board has just approve a plan to expand operations in two locations in the world whose local populations are overwhelmingly Hindu.

What about you? Put yourself in the position of the Atlanta educators whose dilemma is described in the case. If there was a real possibility that you’d lose your job because your students performed badly, how would assess your situation and your options? What if there were a real possibility that you’d lose a pay raise and promotion? How about the possibility that you’d be reassigned to a much less desirable school? Be prepared to argue either side of your case.

The students are multi-lingual and multi-ethnic and a reflection of the community.

- .Assume that you are a high level manager for a shoe manufacturer. You know that your firm could increase its profit margin by producing shoes in Indonesia, where you could hire women for $40 a month to assemble them. You also know, however, that a competing shoe manufacturer recently was accused by human rights advocates of engaging in exploitative labor practices because the manufacturer shipped shoes made by Indonesian women working for similarly low wages. You personally do not believe that paying $40 a month to Indonesian women is unethical, because you know that in that impoverished country, $40 a month is a better than average wage rate. Assuming that the decision is yours to make, should you have the shoes manufactured in Indonesia and make higher profits for your company?

In Chapter 6, he further elaborates upon his proposal, arguing that democratic socialism is up to the challenge of addressing the six crises. Evaluate Adler's argument. Some questions you might consider are: are there any obstacles to democratic socialism which Adler does not address? Are there any which he does not effectively respond to? What social or economic forces are at the heart of his democratic socialist society--how is this thing supposed to work? What's the logic of that system? For a given crisis which you care about and think needs to be solved, how successful is Adler in demonstrating that democratic socialism is the solution.arrow_forwardProvide a critical analysis using Porter’s Five Forces Model by taking a company of your choice.arrow_forward
