Contemporary Diversity Issues in Communication

If there is one particularly adverse effect of globalization, that is the homogenization of culture and the subservience of minority or ethnic cultures and languages under the dominant one. It is a phenomenon that if allowed to continue unabated can lead to the extinction of minority languages and culture, which in effect can lead to the loss of the uniqueness that renders individuals with their own creative individuality. In a world that purports to celebrate diversity, it is ironic that communication seems to be leaning towards homogenization or standardization of forms.Globalization necessitates the need for the homogenization of communication because in an age of international businesses, language diversity can hinder trade relations and transactions. Using one form of communication facilitates interaction and leaves very little room for misinterpretation. Languages develop out of the user’s need to express themselves. As such, it is fair to say that all languages are equa l. This equality means that all languages, regardless of their characteristics and linguistic qualities, all meet the social and psychological needs of the users. (Crystal, 1987, p.6)They are tailor made to the unique circumstances of the people and culture that created them. In the face of unrelenting globalization, these unique languages and cultures are giving way to a standard form. The standard form imposes itself upon other languages in the form of linguistic prescription or prescriptive norms in culture, defining a standard form or ways of doing for a specific purpose or activity. Prescriptive norms serve as a controlling force that is exerted by the community over its members (Punder 2000, p. 141), and globalization imposes the homogenization of language and culture to facilitate communication and relations.While the usefulness and convenience of having a standard language or culture, particularly in a business environment, cannot be dismissed, this way of thinking brings to the table a lot of complications; not the least of which is stereotyping and its resultant complications like cultural and political discrimination. As John Fought (2007) once said, â€Å"Language has always helped to signify who we are in society, sometimes serving as a basis for exclusion. † The determination of the use of a standard language is largely a function of political and economic power, in an act of acknowledgment of a certain culture’s dominance over the rest.A standard form of language and culture will be of no use when there is no variation in the first place. There is a need to standardize because the diversity in our languages requires us to lessen the confusion and make for efficient transaction of our ordinary activities and important businesses. Because language is a fundamental aspect of culture, it is therefore only natural that we become defined or identified by our native language. Difficulties can arise if we are not fluent in the standard lan guage being used in a particular place.In such cases, when we do not know the standard form of communication, we are immediately labeled as â€Å"foreigners†, or not born native to the place, a label that carries with it an entirely new set of biases and stereotypes that limits the opportunities that would have otherwise been available to the individual. The need to conform is related to the prestige that is associated with being able to act and communicate according to the dominant language or culture. (Abrams et al 2005, p. 120) Related to the issue of race is the issue of social class.There are some people who have more linguistic powers at their disposal and are able to use this fluency to their advantage. (Bonfiglio, 2002, p. 12) Fluency in language often connotes good breeding and education. Conversely, if you have difficulties in the standard language, other people will consider it as a statement of weakness or lack of social status. Of course it should also be said th at the bias also goes the other way. In most third-world countries, those who speak a foreign language or have foreign accents are considered first class citizens and are given preferential treatment in all aspects of their functional activities.What we speak and how we speak, reflects our history as an individual. How we speak makes a statement about who we are as a person and a measure of who we could be Either way, these stereotyping based on one’s communication style is very counter-productive and corrosive to the individual. Aside from discrimination and stereotyping, homogenization of communication is also adversely affecting the rich diversity of our world’s languages, particularly on dialects.As prescriptive norms of standardized communication forms threaten the extinction of minority languages and dialects, it also slows language change. Language change is a natural process in the evolution of our languages. Language is constantly in flux, ever adapting to the needs and realities of the times. It ever-changing and shifting its form, evolving in a process that is very much akin to natural selection. Language change is not so much a preference over one language variant, but the removal of a language that is socially inappropriate or no longer useful, for some reason or another.  (Lippi-Green, 1997, p. 173)With the presence of a homogenized form of communication and culture, the normal evolution that should have taken place to strengthen local languages and make them constantly relevant has been forcefully suppressed by the imposition of a uniform language or code that is universal to all situations. In light of this, language change becomes almost unnecessary because the homogenized form of communication has removed the necessity for the local language to adapt because the change has been imposed artificially by the dominant culture.Globalization presupposes the interaction of various cultures. Over man’s collective history, cultu re exchange has resulted in the constant evolution of cultures as it gets constantly exposed to another culture. This is a two-way process that enriches the culture of all those involved. In a process called acculturation, a certain group of people imbibe new ways of doing without necessarily changing their distinct identity. Acculturation represents the adaptation of a certain culture to change but keeping their culture uniquely their own.However, in this age of homogenization, acculturation has come to mean the slow erosion and subservience of the ethnic culture under the dominant one. (Castro 2003, p. 19) Thus, acculturation can be considered as a process of culture change where the foreigners or minorities must adapt in order to survive. In other words, this refers to the homogenization of communication and culture in order to flourish in a global community. This discourse does not mean to present language and cultural homogenization in a bad light.In some cases, such homogeniza tion is truly necessary to facilitate communication and exchange similar to what a standard currency will do. What is important to remember is that a standard form of communication can be learned without having to sacrifice our own native languages and culture. Our ability to learn a language is elastic, and we can speak as many variations without necessarily affecting the other. To learn one form of language does not necessarily mean that we have to supplant the old one..In an era of globalization where the language of trade becomes the dominant form, the ability to communicate in the standard language is a definite advantage. However with that being said, the value of the mother tongue should never be forgotten. The respect that we have for our own cultural heritage renders us with our own unique identities. And in an era of globalization, where everything is being homogenized we need to hang on to that identity or stand to lose everything about ourselves that makes us special, an d thus indispensible to our community.

Cartoon Endorsement

Prepared by: Fariha Tazin, Lecturer, Faculty of Business Studies (Marketing) Proposed Title: CARTOON ENDORSEMENT: Efficacy on Kids Market Abstract: Kids are bombarded with various forms of promotional activities by marketers of food products. Today’s kids are very much aware of the fashion trend and who’s ever has taken them to market has been observed the marketing power of the popular cartoon characters. The purpose of this research study will be to find out whether cartoon strengthens children to buy more or not. Qualitative research approach will be used to carry out this research study.This study will set out to find the amount of influence that cartoon endorsers have on children. As there have been few academic literatures on the topic of the effectiveness and usefulness of cartoon endorsement in the field of advertising, It has been set as the main goal of this research studies to explore the weight of cartoon endorsement as a promotional technique in Bangladeshi markets. 1. Introduction: A child wakes up in his Disney character pajamas, rolls out of his Barney sheets, his toothbrush, toothpaste and perhaps even his soap covered in cute licensed characters.Gathering up his Pokemon cards and strapping on his Doraemon backpack, he heads off to school. But the Commercialism does not stop even in the schoolyard. Leveraging the endorsement of products by popular cartoons, as a marketing practice, is a common phenomenon. Cartoon endorsement concept has been derived from the idea of celebrity endorsement. The retailing segment is displaying immense business potential for these younger segments. Retailing for kids, be it branded or unbranded, has emerged as a tremendous market in Bangladesh.The kids retail market is immense, with a huge variety available in the clothing, accessories and footwear sections. Some of the products that are available in the kid’s accessories segment include fashion accessories, watches and even kids’ design er jewellery, not to mention toys, books, games, electronics, education aids. Dora the Explorer, Mickey Mouse and all the other staples of morning TV are part of the world’s greatest sales team — because when they’re on the package, kids start yelling for it. 2. Aim: to examine the effect of Cartoon endorsement on kids market. . Objective: a. To find out that whether there is a relationship between cartoon endorsement and the buying behavior of children. b. To analyze the benefits of having cartoon endorsement on products. 4. Research Questions: a. How retailers use cartoons on their variety of products? b. How kids respond to these endorsed products? c. How unbranded products are having benefited from this Cartoon endorsement of children market? d. Is there any negative outcome of this marketing that can badly affect children? 5. Literature Review:Advertisers often choose celebrities who are physically attractive allowing them to get benefit both from the statu s and physical appeal of different celebrities (Singer 1983). Most of the advertisements which get on air contain characters that are attractive. It has been observed that consumers often form positive opinions about such characters. Apart from this, it is seen that attractive communicators are doing well in changing the beliefs of the consumers (Baker and Churchill 1977; Chaiken 1979; Debevec and Kernan 1984) and increasing the purchase intents (Friedman et aI. 976; Petroshius and Crocker 1989; Petty and Cacioppo 1980) as compared to those characters that are unattractive. In one of the study by Story and French revealed that 75% of the purchase requests take place in a supermarket environment. 6. Methodology: The data will be collected using the questionnaires. For this purpose different school, neighborhoods and shopping malls will be visited to collect the data. This research will be conducted by taking the perspective of the parent’s that how they their children behaves when they encounter the cartoon endorsed product.The sample size for carrying out this research consisted of 50 respondents. 6. 1 Data Collection a) Primary Data Collection In this research study the primary data will be collected through survey questionnaires. For this purpose questionnaires will be distributed to those parents whose children lies between the ages of 3 to 8 years. So it is possible to define that age group of children who are dependent on their parents for buying decisions. b) Secondary Data Collection Secondary data will help us in determining the various dimensions of the variables under study.The secondary data for this research study will be collected from different journals, books, researches and websites. Mostly the data will be collected from previously published journals and researches. 7. Conclusion Young children, in particular, have difficulty in distinguishing between advertising and reality in ads, and ads can distort their view of the world. Additiona lly children are unable to evaluate advertising claims. Children represent an important demographic to marketers because they have their own purchasing power, they influence their parents' buying decisions and they're the adult consumers of the future.Marketer tries to draw children’s attention through various means like TV, Magazines, Stickers, etc. Obviously attracted children by the marketing practices; get adversely affected most of the time. I expect this research to contribute to debates of the idea will be to find out the relationship between the cartoon endorsement and children impulse buying behavior, more specifically that whether those products are bought more impulsively by the children which have their favorite cartoon characters on them.References: Edward Martin, â€Å"Cartoon characters influence kids† [online], Health Revelations, 2009-2010 [cited July. 16, 2010], available from World Wide Web: http://healthrevelations. com/2010/07/16/cartoons-endorse-f ood/ a.

Evidence Based Practice For Victims Of Human Trafficking

Evidence-Based Practice in Nursing for Victims of Human Trafficking Human trafficking, commonly known as modern day slavery, is a secretive crime that has generated billions of dollars worldwide and currently enslaves more than twice the total number of people involved in the 350-year African Slave Trade (Bates Soodalter, 2009 cited in Richards, 2014). Approximately 800,000 people are trafficked across international borders and 14,500 to 17,500 of those individuals are being trafficked within and across the United States border annually (Richards, 2014). Trafficked individuals experience many health issues and nurses are one of the first health professionals to be in contact with trafficked individuals during their captivity and upon their release (Holland, 2014). The researchers are gathering information to educate nurses on evidence based practice for victims of human trafficking and the key health assessment techniques. Providing community resources and patient and family educati on are topics that will be discussed pertaining to the nurse’s role in intervention. With the assistance of the Colorado Human Trafficking Council, the researchers were in contact with a local registered nurse involved and human trafficking advocate. The findings will be discussed.

Of Mice and Men Essay on Loneliness - 1318 Words

Honors English 9 10 March 2014 Of Mice and Men Literary Analysis Essay on Loneliness â€Å"Actually, feeling lonely has little to do with how many friends you have. It s the way you feel inside. Some people who feel lonely may rarely interact with people and others who are surrounded by people but don t feel connected† (Karyn Hall 2013). Truthfully, loneliness is something almost all people fear. It s a deeper feeling then just being isolated. It s feeling distant or disconnected from others. Loneliness is so much more than just feeling secluded, it s feeling rejected by society, or even like an outcast. In Of Mice and Men, John Steinbeck suggests that there is a deeper meaning to being lonely than just the superficial sense of†¦show more content†¦He tells George that he does not have any relatives, so he would be able to give all of his money to him and Lennie. That is if they let him in on their dream to buy their own house. This shows just how bad Candy wants to get out of that ranch and that h e will do anything to not be lonely. Loneliness is shown through Candy because he feels like he does not belong and because he has no other friends except his dog, so he feels secluded from the others. An additional character who portrays loneliness throughout the book is Curley s Wife. She feels lonely and isolated because nobody wants to be around her in fear of Curley seeing them with her, so she thinks that she has no one to talk to; this leads to a deep, fathomless feeling of loneliness. When she finally does find someone she can talk to, she mainly talks about how she hates the ranch because nobody ever talks to her. Another favorite topic of hers is to talk about how lonely she is all of the time. â€Å"—Sat day night. Ever body out doin som pin. Ever body! An what am I doin ? Standin here talkin to a bunch of bindle stiffs—a nigger an a dum-dum and a lousy ol sheep—an likin it because they ain t nobody else† (Steinbeck 78).

Issues Paul Raises In Romans 9 11 Religion Essay Essay Example

Issues Paul Raises In Romans 9 11 Religion Essay Essay The book of Romans is the longest among the Pauline epistles it is largely regarded as the ultimate accomplishment among Apostle Paul s work. Romans had a batch of influences and played an of import function in the lives of major Christian minds and bookmans of the yesteryear who help in determining the history of the church. The cardinal subject in Romans is righteousness, the book clearly conveying out God s righteousness and world s demand for redemption, and it provides doctrinal learning on how to use redemption in populating a righteous life. Romans chapters 9 11 contain some of the primary theological elements of Pauline indispensable statements in the book of Romans that trade with critical issues refering God s Word, the failure of His chosen people Israel, their current state of affairs, and the future deduction for the Jews as state. Apostle Paul in his statement revealed God s intent of grace and the future glorification that is to come in God s kids. He threw more visible radiation on the leftover of Israel in an inter-textual signifier of statement. The Jews are God s chosen people: a symbol that represents the sovereignty of God among other states on Earth ; their being signified the monotheistic function in godly intent of God. Even though God s lone Son was send to them, they rejected him and put him to decease. This is some of the jobs raised up and Paul dealt with in chapters 9 11. He strongly argued about Israel s topographic point in God s redemption program and their dealingss to the Gospel, he besides e mphasised on how the Gentiles should associate to the Jews as trusters in Jesus Christ.

He expressed how passionately he is to take their penalty if merely that could hold saved them for he knew the wrath that comes with rejecting what God has presented to His kids. In verse four Paul unfolded God s intent for Israel throughout in the Old Testament history, Israel s acceptance as God s kids, Abraham s promises, the patriarchal compact, and the Mosaic Law at the terminal of the introductory paragraph ( v1-5 ) . A batch of strength is built in Paul s statement. The consistence of God s work of cosmopolitan acceptance is besides seen at this point. Chapter 9:6 is the cardinal poetry in the transition because it deals with the rudimentss of Paul s statements in chapters 9 11. The Apostle stated that Not as though the word of God hath taken none consequence . Paul raised this issue in order to learn that the word of God is still and can be trusted to the full, even though it may look as if it failed in respect to the state Israel. Paul absolutely knew that Bibles have non failed the Jews because he knew the Word of God to be faithful. He demonstrates that God s manner of covering with the Jews and the remainder of the states are consistent with the prophetic promises in Bibles. The Word of God in context refers to God s promise to Abraham and his posterities, yet he farther declares in the 2nd portion of chapter 9:6 For they are non all Israel, which are of Israel Paul taught that even thoug ht many Hebrewss are lost, the true Hebrewss are saved. Within the history of Israel there was autonomous election, non merely in the instance of Ishmael and Isaac, where Isaac was chosen as the seed of Abraham but besides in the instance of Esau and Jacob. Jacob was chosen as the 1 in whom the compact line of descent will be proceed and fulfilled. He argued that throughout coevalss there has ever been true and faithful one within the state of Israel who is perfectly elected known as the leftover. The Apostle Paul applied the philosophy of the leftover to exemplify that among the Judaic state there are ever people who believe and all those trusters among the Jews are the leftover of Israel. Among the bing Hebrews it is those who believe in Christ are the elite posterities of Abraham. Paul provides adequate biblical grounds to turn out the point of his statement that non all the physical posterities of Abraham are regarded to be the kids of the promise. God in His sovereignty choose upon whom He will confabulate His approval for it is a gift of grace non an accomplishable wages. Judaic wickedness in rejecting Jesus Israel a state that had the chance and privilege as God s chosen people failed non needfully because they did non follow the jurisprudence, but because they did non understand the work of the jurisprudence. They created their ain manner of righteousness and failed to subject to righteousness in Christ. Paul theoretically dealt with the Judaic disbelief as God s purpose base on godly election. He emphasized on righteousness and declared the manner to obtain it. Furthermore he taught that true righteousness is non obedience to a set human rules or regulations but it is based merely on religion. He argued that the obeisance of religion is non the same as obeisance to the jurisprudence. Paul explored the job with the Jews in consistent item and unfolded the nature of the Judaic people. He acknowledged that the Jews had a singular end to honor God but they practiced this accomplishment from incorrect attack by recompensed obeisance to the jurisprudence at the degree where most of them are focussed and dedicated to the jurisprudence instead than God. The Apostle Paul evidently understood that Christ has put an terminal to the jurisprudence with a new beginning ; therefore a better manner of religion is available for both Jews and Gentiles every bit good. The Jews chose to indurate their Black Marias against the new beginning of redemption that came through Christ the Messiah, foremost to them before the remainder of the states in the universe. Paul argued that Judaism without Christ is like unaccomplished journey, the jurisprudence itself is a usher to Christ as a concluding and fulfilled promised. Hebrews who looked for the coming Messiah rejected him when he came but when God offered His redemption to the Gentiles many who even do non cognize anything about the Messiah and His coming believed in him. Paul concluded his statement ( Romans 9:20-10:21 ) by citing Isaiah 65:2, a mention that absolutely described the transition in context of Israel s disobedient. Present events are to be over ruled by future glorification The Apostle Paul to indicate out in the 11th chapter that non all Hebrews have rejected God s massage of redemption and continued by raising the degree of his statement refering God s fidelity and consistence. He disputed the thought that God has abandoned His people Israel. As an Israelite himself and a descendent of Abraham from the folk of Benjamin he argued that non all Hebrews have rejected God s message of redemption, he clearly taught with comprehendible scruples that there is an bing faithful leftover among God s chosen people Israel. Paul revealed that merely the same as God had faithful leftover in the yearss of Elijah the great prophesier who challenged the northern land to atone so it is in the yearss of Paul and his coevalss. Those Hebrewss who believed in the Gospel did non come to God because of righteousness based on plants of the jurisprudence but it is based on God s gracious pick. The Judaic trusters are the leftovers and besides proved the fact that God has non abandoned His people. Harmonizing to Paul trusters like himself and the adherents of Jesus Christ indicated that God is still in procedure of covering with the Judaic people and has non cast the state Israel away. Paul the apostle to the Gentiles addressed the Gentile trusters to understand the heritage they have received from the Jews. Although they had every right to bask the privileges they should offer a good relationship to the Jews trusters to keep integrity in Christ. The Apostle used a metaphoric illustration of wild olive tree to learn the truth that both Jews and Gentiles shared parts based on religion in God s Godhead program. In kernel he illustrated that the Gentiles have no root of their ain, they are subdivisions grafted into an bing cultivated root and there will be a clip that the original root will bring forth subdivisions of its sort. A clip will come when the Jews who have been cut off because of their rejection of Christ will be grafted to the root in the same beginning as the Gentiles. Paul cautions the Gentiles trusters non to tout but steadfastly stand in what God has done for them. The wild olive tree analogy revealed God s Godhead program for all world, Israel s rejection prepared the manner for the Gentiles to go portion of God s redemption offered to all world. The Godhead disclosures, privileges, and promises that were given to the state Israel will neer be withdrawn. God will work with the despaired single members of the state Israel who are populating among the Gentile states worldwide, and He will convey His people to salvation in integrity with Christ. The unbelief Jews will be invited once more as the Gentiles were invited because God is covering with them as portion of the healing procedure, they will ever stay God chosen people. Harmonizing to Paul there will ever be a reserved leftover by God chosen people through all ages until the great trial for the readying of the opinion of the millennian land. Paul argued his point with eschatological understanding on Israel s redemption that he hopes for his people in the hereafter. Decision The Apostle Paul constructively discussed the dealingss between the state Israel and other states of the universe in Roman 9-11. In his treatment it is argued that God promises remain true, the Gospel of redemption in Christ was foremost offered to the Jews and so to the Gentiles. Bing a Hebrew Paul brought in his great concern for his fellow brethren who are the direct posterities of God s chosen people and yet rejected their rightful heritage. He explained the existed state of affairs of the Jews disbelief as a procedure that God is taking them through. To the Gentiles he cautioned them non to look down upon God s chosen people Israel. Paul s statement in the transition ( Roman 9-11 ) without a uncertainty was addressed to the Jews foremost before the non-Jewish and the transition represented as a usher to assist them both to understand the Godhead intent in which God work among worlds. From a strong theological accent the Apostle used biblical mentions to set up the facts concerne d the promises made to Israel from the yearss of their male parents to confirm that God work among them as His crowned head chosen.
