Explain the terms of this formulation and why it is an appropriate rule for determining the  morality of an action; and use it to evaluate whether telling a lie is morally justifiable. 

1. Mill argues in chapter 2 of Utilitarianism that the greatest happiness principle does not involve a  denigration of humanity; that utilitarianism is importantly different from selfish egoism; and that  whether an action is moral or not does not have to do with the agent’s motives.

2. What is the categorical imperative? Choose one of the two following formulations of the  categorical imperative that Kant provides in the Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals: a. “Act as if the maxim of your action were to become through your will a universal law” (Kant, Grounding, 30).

b. “Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person  of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means” (Kant,  Grounding, 36).

Explain the terms of this formulation and why it is an appropriate rule for determining the  morality of an action; and use it to evaluate whether telling a lie is morally justifiable.

Explain the challenges in recruiting and selecting the best candidates for a Public Organization.

Generate Best Practices for Recruitment and Selection
consider the challenges in recruiting and selecting the best candidates for Public Organization X. Then, choose an organization to examine and apply this week’s concepts. Pick any public organization of your choice for this assignment, but choose wisely and make sure the information you are seeking is readily available.
Give a brief background on your selected organization and its employees, and then produce an in-depth guideline on recruitment and selection best practices for yourself to use when you take over as Director of Personnel Administration of Organization X at the end of your training. You may assume the organization you choose to examine is in the same field as Organization X. This is a great practice, especially since sometimes you get the best ideas from outside research! Just remember, your document should contain best practices specifically related to recruiting and candidate selection.

 

Legal Environmental Analysis for Brazil.

Legal Environmental Analysis for Brazil

As an emerging (and the world’s twelfth largest) economy, Brazil’s legal environment is complex and deep, particularly when it comes to foreign direct investment. Over the past two decades, the United States has grown to become Brazil’s second largest trading partner, hence the Agreement on Trade and Economic Cooperation (ATEC), signed in 2011. Even so, Brazilian policy on investors from outside the country continues to strongly mediate operations, including those driven by American investors. While there are no notable subsidies or benefits for Americans looking to do business in Brazil, they should leverage the increased ease of doing business and capitalize on Brazil’s rapid economic growth to grow their investments within the country.

Question: : Wilson’s postwar novel gives us the characters Tom and Betsy Rath. From the pages you read, how would you describe this pair? What do they value? What do you think they represent? Next, put them in dialogue with a work by or featuring Jackson Pollock from class. How could we discuss the Raths and Pollock in relation to one another? In other words, how do the Raths help us understand the radicality (or lack thereof) of Pollock?

The aim of these papers is to give you practice in situating works of art in their historical contexts and/or within the larger field of art history. What can the ambitions of an artist—as outlined in an artist statement— or the responses of critics—as articulated in a review—tell us about the priorities or values of a particular historical moment; and then how can we deploy that information in offering our own accounts of what is happening in a week of art? How can we assess the work of scholars who came before us and then position our thought in relation to theirs?
