For my assignment I choose the following text:
Furutan, Omid. Corruption in Slovakia - ethical issues from a
systematic point of view in Journal of Academic and Business Ethics,
2011, Vol 3, January 2011, Florida, FD: Academic and Business Research
Institute, 2011. p 10 [Cited 20120229]. Pdf. Available from: <
http://www.aabri.com/manuscripts/10533.pdf>
The text speaks about the corruption in Slovakia. Corruption is
present at all level and it is threats for stability and development of the
civil society. Even if European Union and Western countries are not escape
of it, the most problematic situation it is in Eastern Europe. Before the
millennium, the Slovak government decided to put the fight against
corruption on its agenda with high priority, with public participation of the
Prime Minister, and creation of an Anticorruption Steering Committee for a
National Programme for the Fight against Corruption. But, study showed
“that from 1997 to 2005 the level of corruption in Slovakia has risen”.
Corruption remained in all sectors of the society as education, courts,
police and health care, sector the most in contact with Slovak society.
But one of the main problem, it is that in general and world will
definition of corruption does not existed apart the one defined by the
United Nations. In fact, it is easier to identify the problems that the
causes. The elimination of administrative barriers as subjectivism in
decision-making with a long term goal can be a help, instead an
authoritarian approach on a sort term goals. As the text concluded, “one
sign of the failure of this approach in Slovakia is the level of tolerance
Slovaks have for accepting corruption as part of life”.
The major issue here it is that it was done three main errors. The
European Union focus on the corruption problems as one of the main issue
in the enlargement process too late and some time after enlargement.

This document discusses the challenges of e-governance and participation in the context of social media. It notes that social media and Web 2.0 technologies are spurring new forms of participation through citizen engagement and the creation of social networks. However, both citizens and governments face challenges in leveraging these technologies, such as empowering citizens, ensuring transparency, and managing new forms of collaboration and knowledge sharing.Youth at risk

The document discusses the challenges facing civil society leadership and how civil society can take a more proactive role in driving change. It addresses five major challenges: coordination across borders, increasing capacity through skills development, achieving financial sustainability, improving governance, and enhancing reputation. Various civil society leaders provide their views on developing leadership to address these challenges, emphasizing the need for collaboration, creativity, and adapting leadership styles to the modern era. They argue civil society can become a new driving force for development in Europe if it overcomes these challenges.

Vulnerable groups have been particularly impacted. The report explores how social enterprises, which aim to achieve both social and economic goals, can help address these issues through activities like providing services, generating employment, and building social cohesion. It presents case studies and recommendations but notes the potential role of social enterprises is still underdeveloped in the region compared to Western Europe.

This document summarizes a book that examines the relationship between civil society organizations and global governance institutions. It finds that CSOs have had mixed success in increasing the accountability of global organizations. While CSOs have improved transparency and evaluation, they have been less able to influence policies or ensure equal representation, especially for developing countries. The book also notes limitations of CSOs, such as conforming to existing power structures. It argues that truly democratic global accountability requires challenging the priorities of capitalism.

Report on social media 04 - 26 - 2013
The document provides an overview of social media use among associations based on an online survey of 123 association executives and focus groups with 10 communication directors. It finds that while most associations are active on social media, especially Twitter and Facebook, dedicated resources are limited, usually less than 10 hours per week. Associations primarily use social media for communication and information gathering. Measurement of impact is still developing, relying mainly on follower counts with few conducting in-depth analysis. Twitter is seen as having the greatest potential for positive influence while Facebook may pose more risks. The report concludes with recommendations for associations to develop effective social media strategies.

This document proposes that securing decent work for all people should be the primary goal of the International Labour Organization (ILO) during this period of global economic transition. It discusses how globalization and changes in the world of work have impacted the ILO's constituents and transformed the economic and social environment. However, these challenges also present opportunities for the ILO to renew its focus on promoting fundamental principles and rights at work, employment, social protection, and social dialogue to help shape policies that ensure decent and productive work worldwide. To achieve this goal, the ILO will need to set clear priorities, strengthen consensus among its tripartite members, and adapt its programs and capabilities to respond to regional realities during this time of widespread economic adjustment

Four Case Studies on Corporate Social Responsibility:
Do Conflicts Affect a Company’s Corporate Social
Responsibility Policy?

1. Introduction
1.1. Background and objectives
This article will discuss the different Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) issues that emerged within
four multinationals (Apple, Canon, Coca-Cola and Walmart). There is no clear definition of CSR. In
Corporate Social Responsibility, Legal and semi-legal frameworks supporting CSR Lambooy gives an
overview of several definitions of CSR.1 The European Commission defines CSR as ‘the responsibility
of enterprises for their impacts on society’.2 This is the definition which is the most suitable for the
context of the article’s research question. As this article will focus on companies from the US and Japan,
the authors also provide an overview of the focus on CSR from the US and Japanese perspective. In the
US there is no governmental regulation regarding CSR or business best practices. Instead, according
to findings from Bennett American, companies have a marked tendency to use codes of conduct.3 The
American CSR perspective could be described as following a principles-based approach, with codes of
conduct that prescribe values and principles which company members as a whole should aspire to follow.
In contrast, Japanese companies prefer to focus on areas where their contributions can be statistically
measured. Interest in social aspects of CSR is significantly less pronounced than in other industrialized
countries.4 In Japan there are no specific provisions regulating CSR. However, the 1988 law that promotes
specific non-profit activities is of major significance in this context.5
Early notions of CSR on an academic level can be traced back to the 1960s. In 1991 Carroll presented
CSR as a multi-layered concept that consists of four interrelated aspects: economic, legal, ethical and
philanthropic responsibilities.6 Carroll proposed a pyramid that analyses the dimension of CSR. It starts

The document discusses Moldova's membership in international organizations and the fees associated with that membership. It notes that while Moldova has joined over 60 international bodies, the enthusiasm for joining has not always considered the costs and benefits to Moldova. Membership fees to these organizations total around 50 million lei annually. The document evaluates Moldova's participation in terms of efficiency, highlighting organizations like the UN, Council of Europe, WTO, and OSCE as providing clear benefits that outweigh their membership costs, such as advancing human rights, resolving trade disputes, and supporting development. However, it also notes there are some memberships where the usefulness is less clear when considering Moldova's limited resources.

The document discusses the role of criminology and the criminal justice system in addressing and solving crime. It argues that learning criminology helps understand the root causes of criminal behavior in order to develop effective prevention and rehabilitation approaches. An efficient criminal justice system that involves law enforcement, corrections, courts, and the community working together can prevent crime, punish offenders, rehabilitate criminals, and maintain peace. Regular assessment of community awareness and professional development for authorities ensures the criminal justice system adapts to solve crime effectively. Overall, the document advocates for a holistic approach involving education, criminal justice institutions, and community partnerships to address the complex social problem of crime.

In reality, many countries take education as the top priority to develop the country. Education is a prerequisite to help decide whether the country's economy develops or not, whether the society is stable or not, whether the country has many talents to serve or not. Therefore, education today plays a great role in the development of the country. That’s why we present here a case study on negative aspects of Vietnam education including: a criminal case study of posting fake news of Thanhnien.vn and Tuoitre.vn (online newspapers) in Vietnam. Next we present critical points on case of fake Professor – Tran Van Tho in State Professor Council (Trần Thọ Đạt -HĐGSNN) in limiting researches of scientists. As their behaviors are considered to violate privacy and science laws, their untruth news online has caused many troubles, disorder and misleading community and society. This study also shows directions of President Ho Chi Minh to presents some ideologies on publishing activities for educating students in journalism, this study also make some suggestions from European approaches.

Ethical Leadership. Solidarity, Respect and Dialogue: Essential Values to Fue...Corporate Excellence - Centre for Reputation Leadership
This document was developed by Corporate Excellence – Centre for Reputation Leadership and among other sources contains references to the statements made by Federico Mayor Zaragoza, Chairman of the Scientific Council at Fundación Ramón Areces; Adela Cortina, Professor at the University of Valencia; José Luis Monzón, President of CIRIEC; Charles Fombrun, PChairman at Reputation Institute and José Manuel Pérez Díaz-Pericles,Founder of the training project Entrepreneurship Training Chain, during the semminary Economía y valores that took place in Madrid, on February 19 and 20, 2015.
In the institutional area, the academic field and private sector a new framework is demanded for economy to grow and develop itself and to give more importance to objectives of sustainable growth for the long-term, including issues of general interest both for companies and stakeholders. Ethics seem to be the backbone of a new system based on two big pillars: social and environmental ethics, able to develop an efficient economic system, which is favourable to business development and investments.
New Institutional Economics (NIE) doesn't mean to break away from the market economy but to apply new formulas to solve problems arising from it.
Institutions need to be able to guarantee social justice, environmental sustainability and long-term economic growth. The current economic scenario and institutional crisis turns the spotlight on legitimizing those institutions that will have to make considerable further efforts to respond to the interests and demands of everyone, companies and citizens.
The current context of social economy represents a useful tool that includes ethical principles to the business plan, so that the company stakeholders perceive the actions of the organization as something positive and favourable for the context where it happens. It is true that the model suggested by social economy can't be completely transposed to capital companies but it can add value to the business model through human resources and corporate social responsibility policies.
In the current scenario, both companies and citizens are required to create new models of ethical leadership. Nowadays, states have lost influence in favour of civil society. The current position of companies and citizens is critical as a way out of the crisis. Thus, it is fundamental to take new responsibilities based on their new role.
Citizens must assume this responsibility and adopt such values as solidarity, respect and, specially, dialogue.
It is impossible to apprehend the full complexity of the transformative power of current citizenry without understanding the key elements of this new context: the reputation economy, a context where people pay more and more attention to the companies that are behind the products and services they consume. In this sense, reputation management becomes the management of the relationship with the company's stakeholders.Discussion 1Supportive Living Retirement Arrangement [WLO 4] [C

This document discusses the importance of revealing social responsibility in generating high-quality financial reports. It defines social responsibility and accounting for social responsibility. Disclosure of social impacts and benefits is considered vital for evaluating an organization's social performance. Increased disclosure allows users to better understand an organization's financial position and results. High-quality financial reports should contain sufficient information on an organization's social activities and contributions to the community.
Corruption in the UK: overview and policy recommendation
This document summarizes the key findings of extensive research on corruption in the UK conducted by Transparency International UK. Some of the main points are:
1. The research finds that corruption may be a greater problem in the UK than previously recognized, and that the UK lacks a coherent and coordinated approach to tackling it.
2. Surveys found that over half of respondents believe corruption has increased in the UK in recent years. However, less than one-third would know how to report corruption.
3. Several sectors and institutions, such as prisons, political parties, and sport, show weaknesses in preventing corruption. There are also concerns about the growing influence of organized crime networks in facilitating illegal activities through corruption.
Corruption
This document appears to be a project report on the topic of whether corruption is morally bad but economically beneficial for a nation's prosperity. It includes an acknowledgements section, abstract, table of contents, and introduction. The introduction provides background on corruption in India, defines corruption, and outlines how the report will analyze corruption from an ethical and moral perspective. It will examine causes and effects of corruption and propose principles to reduce corruption by drawing from ethics, culture, and practices used in other countries.

1. Introduction
1.1. Background and objectives
This article will discuss the different Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) issues that emerged within
four multinationals (Apple, Canon, Coca-Cola and Walmart). There is no clear definition of CSR. In
Corporate Social Responsibility, Legal and semi-legal frameworks supporting CSR Lambooy gives an
overview of several definitions of CSR.1 The European Commission defines CSR as ‘the responsibility
of enterprises for their impacts on society’.2 This is the definition which is the most suitable for the
context of the article’s research question. As this article will focus on companies from the US and Japan,
the authors also provide an overview of the focus on CSR from the US and Japanese perspective. In the
US there is no governmental regulation regarding CSR or business best practices. Instead, according
to findings from Bennett American, companies have a marked tendency to use codes of conduct.3 The
American CSR perspective could be described as following a principles-based approach, with codes of
conduct that prescribe values and principles which company members as a whole should aspire to follow.
In contrast, Japanese companies prefer to focus on areas where their contributions can be statistically
measured. Interest in social aspects of CSR is significantly less pronounced than in other industrialized
countries.4 In Japan there are no specific provisions regulating CSR. However, the 1988 law that promotes
specific non-profit activities is of major significance in this context.5
Early notions of CSR on an academic level can be traced back to the 1960s. In 1991 Carroll presented
CSR as a multi-layered concept that consists of four interrelated aspects: economic, legal, ethical and
philanthropic responsibilities.6 Carroll proposed a pyramid that analyses the dimension of CSR. It starts

The document discusses Moldova's membership in international organizations and the fees associated with that membership. It notes that while Moldova has joined over 60 international bodies, the enthusiasm for joining has not always considered the costs and benefits to Moldova. Membership fees to these organizations total around 50 million lei annually. The document evaluates Moldova's participation in terms of efficiency, highlighting organizations like the UN, Council of Europe, WTO, and OSCE as providing clear benefits that outweigh their membership costs, such as advancing human rights, resolving trade disputes, and supporting development. However, it also notes there are some memberships where the usefulness is less clear when considering Moldova's limited resources.

The document discusses the role of criminology and the criminal justice system in addressing and solving crime. It argues that learning criminology helps understand the root causes of criminal behavior in order to develop effective prevention and rehabilitation approaches. An efficient criminal justice system that involves law enforcement, corrections, courts, and the community working together can prevent crime, punish offenders, rehabilitate criminals, and maintain peace. Regular assessment of community awareness and professional development for authorities ensures the criminal justice system adapts to solve crime effectively. Overall, the document advocates for a holistic approach involving education, criminal justice institutions, and community partnerships to address the complex social problem of crime.

In reality, many countries take education as the top priority to develop the country. Education is a prerequisite to help decide whether the country's economy develops or not, whether the society is stable or not, whether the country has many talents to serve or not. Therefore, education today plays a great role in the development of the country. That’s why we present here a case study on negative aspects of Vietnam education including: a criminal case study of posting fake news of Thanhnien.vn and Tuoitre.vn (online newspapers) in Vietnam. Next we present critical points on case of fake Professor – Tran Van Tho in State Professor Council (Trần Thọ Đạt -HĐGSNN) in limiting researches of scientists. As their behaviors are considered to violate privacy and science laws, their untruth news online has caused many troubles, disorder and misleading community and society. This study also shows directions of President Ho Chi Minh to presents some ideologies on publishing activities for educating students in journalism, this study also make some suggestions from European approaches.

Ethical Leadership. Solidarity, Respect and Dialogue: Essential Values to Fue...Corporate Excellence - Centre for Reputation Leadership
This document was developed by Corporate Excellence – Centre for Reputation Leadership and among other sources contains references to the statements made by Federico Mayor Zaragoza, Chairman of the Scientific Council at Fundación Ramón Areces; Adela Cortina, Professor at the University of Valencia; José Luis Monzón, President of CIRIEC; Charles Fombrun, PChairman at Reputation Institute and José Manuel Pérez Díaz-Pericles,Founder of the training project Entrepreneurship Training Chain, during the semminary Economía y valores that took place in Madrid, on February 19 and 20, 2015.
In the institutional area, the academic field and private sector a new framework is demanded for economy to grow and develop itself and to give more importance to objectives of sustainable growth for the long-term, including issues of general interest both for companies and stakeholders. Ethics seem to be the backbone of a new system based on two big pillars: social and environmental ethics, able to develop an efficient economic system, which is favourable to business development and investments.
New Institutional Economics (NIE) doesn't mean to break away from the market economy but to apply new formulas to solve problems arising from it.
Institutions need to be able to guarantee social justice, environmental sustainability and long-term economic growth. The current economic scenario and institutional crisis turns the spotlight on legitimizing those institutions that will have to make considerable further efforts to respond to the interests and demands of everyone, companies and citizens.
The current context of social economy represents a useful tool that includes ethical principles to the business plan, so that the company stakeholders perceive the actions of the organization as something positive and favourable for the context where it happens. It is true that the model suggested by social economy can't be completely transposed to capital companies but it can add value to the business model through human resources and corporate social responsibility policies.
In the current scenario, both companies and citizens are required to create new models of ethical leadership. Nowadays, states have lost influence in favour of civil society. The current position of companies and citizens is critical as a way out of the crisis. Thus, it is fundamental to take new responsibilities based on their new role.
Citizens must assume this responsibility and adopt such values as solidarity, respect and, specially, dialogue.
It is impossible to apprehend the full complexity of the transformative power of current citizenry without understanding the key elements of this new context: the reputation economy, a context where people pay more and more attention to the companies that are behind the products and services they consume. In this sense, reputation management becomes the management of the relationship with the company's stakeholders.Discussion 1Supportive Living Retirement Arrangement [WLO 4] [C

This document discusses the importance of revealing social responsibility in generating high-quality financial reports. It defines social responsibility and accounting for social responsibility. Disclosure of social impacts and benefits is considered vital for evaluating an organization's social performance. Increased disclosure allows users to better understand an organization's financial position and results. High-quality financial reports should contain sufficient information on an organization's social activities and contributions to the community.
Corruption in the UK: overview and policy recommendation
This document summarizes the key findings of extensive research on corruption in the UK conducted by Transparency International UK. Some of the main points are:
1. The research finds that corruption may be a greater problem in the UK than previously recognized, and that the UK lacks a coherent and coordinated approach to tackling it.
2. Surveys found that over half of respondents believe corruption has increased in the UK in recent years. However, less than one-third would know how to report corruption.
3. Several sectors and institutions, such as prisons, political parties, and sport, show weaknesses in preventing corruption. There are also concerns about the growing influence of organized crime networks in facilitating illegal activities through corruption.
Corruption
This document appears to be a project report on the topic of whether corruption is morally bad but economically beneficial for a nation's prosperity. It includes an acknowledgements section, abstract, table of contents, and introduction. The introduction provides background on corruption in India, defines corruption, and outlines how the report will analyze corruption from an ethical and moral perspective. It will examine causes and effects of corruption and propose principles to reduce corruption by drawing from ethics, culture, and practices used in other countries.

Romania's post cold war international relations [extract]
Ce travail de recherche examine les relations internationales de la Roumanie après la Révolution de 89, dans le contexte des bouleversements survenues à la proximité géographique de la Roumanie et au travers des nouveaux paradigmes des Relations Internationales misent en place à la fin de années quatre-vingt et au début du 21e siècle. En mettant l’accent sur les « forces majeures » (la géopolitique, l’histoire...) ainsi que sur les « forces variables » (la politique étrangère, la politique intérieure, la sociologie ...), ce travail a identifié trois piliers : le puissant impact des « autres », une situation d’entre-deux et la complexité de sa situation de frontière ainsi que sa situation de carrefour. Ces piliers sous-tendent les actions de la Roumanie dans ses relations internationales et influencent les décisions de sa politique étrangère. On soulignera que l'étude de cas de la Roumanie représente bien le chemin chaotique et les péripéties des Pays de l’Europe Centrale et Orientales (PECO), de même que la transformation politico-idéologique de l'Alliance Atlantique, ainsi que l'adaptation de la stratégie d'élargissement de l'Union Européenne dans l'interdépendance de l'après-guerre froide. En outre, ce travail permet de valider certaines théories dans différents domaines comme le changement en politique étrangère, les relations internationales, la géopolitique, l'interdépendance ...
Au cours de son histoire, en dépit des changements géopolitiques et nationaux, les principales options de la Roumanie dans les relations internationales restent inchangées, s'appuyant sur le système d'alliance par le biais du « balancing » (équilibrage) ou du « bandwagoning » (suivisme), mais également au travers des organisations internationales pour garantir la paix et la liberté du pays. En outre, à partir d'une constante situation d’entre-deux associés à un contexte complexe de frontières, le pays va se placer régulièrement dans une situation de carrefour. D'ailleurs, après la restructuration interne du pays, de ses alliances et de ses relations bilatérales, la Roumanie a pris un rôle actif envers les Balkans et la grande région de la mer Noire. Avec son nouveau statut, la Roumanie devient le « porte-avions » de l'OTAN et pratiquement la voix de l'UE à la frontière du sud-est Européen, comme un nouveau rôle conçu sur mesure dans le système international post-Yalta.
Romania's post cold war international relations
This work’s research examines the international relations of Romania after the 89’ Revolution, within the changing parameters in the Romania’s near shore as well the new paradigms of International Relations appeared at the end of the eighties and the dawn of the 21st century. Focusing on the ‘major forces’ (geopolitics, country’s history…) likewise ‘variable forces’ (foreign policy, domestic policy, sociology…), this work identified three pillars: the powerful impact of the 'Others', an in-between situation and the complexity of Romania’ borderland as well its crossroad situation. These pillars underline the Romanian international relations actions and impel the Romanian foreign policy decisions. It is pointed out that Romania’s case study represented the Central and Eastern European Countries’ (CEECs) path and contingencies, likewise the politico-ideological transformation of the military alliance as well the European Union enlargement strategy adaptation in the Post-Cold War Era interdependence. In addition, this work allows validating some theories in different fields as Foreign Policy Change, International Relations, Geopolitics, Interdependence...
Over its history despite the geopolitical and domestic changes, Romania's main options in the international relations remained unchanged relying on system of alliance thru balancing or bandwagoning likewise International Organizations to guaranty the country’ peace and freedom. In addition, from a constant in-between situation associated to a complex borderland context, the country will move regularly to a crossroad situation. Besides, after restructuring the country’s internal situation, its alliances and its bilateral relations, Romania took an active role towards the Balkans and the Wider Black Sea. With its new status, Romania is becoming the ‘Nato's aircraft carrier’ and practically the EU’s voice at the southeast European frontiers with a new role custom designed in the post-Yalta international system.
Module 6 - Activity 4 - Accounts of ethical dilemmas
This document contains an account of an ethical dilemma faced by the student in business in Eastern Europe following the fall of the Soviet Union. Corruption and gift-giving were common practices to gain advantages. The student refused to engage in these practices and faced solicitation for bribes and favors from government officials. Through diplomacy and sometimes legal action, the student established ethical business models and would shut down operations if needed to maintain principles.

Project Manager and Business Analyst - Allies or Ennemies
This document summarizes a presentation given by Marc Bonnemains on the relationship between project managers and business analysts. It discusses how their roles complement each other to define project scope and requirements. While project managers focus on delivering solutions through project management and business analysts focus on defining business value, they must work together closely. Their relationship requires clear roles and responsibilities, open communication, and mutual trust and respect. Understanding how their knowledge and responsibilities overlap is key to ensuring project success.
