The End of Loyalty
Author: Rick Wartzman
Publisher: PublicAffairs
ISBN: 9781541724020
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Having a good, stable job used to be the bedrock of the American Dream. Not anymore. In this richly detailed and eye-opening book, Rick Wartzman chronicles the erosion of the relationship between American companies and their workers. Through the stories of four major employers--General Motors, General Electric, Kodak, and Coca-Cola--he shows how big businesses once took responsibility for providing their workers and retirees with an array of social benefits. At the height of the post-World War II economy, these companies also believed that worker pay needed to be kept high in order to preserve morale and keep the economy humming. Productivity boomed. But the corporate social contract didn't last. By tracing the ups and downs of these four corporate icons over seventy years, Wartzman illustrates just how much has been lost: job security and steadily rising pay, guaranteed pensions, robust health benefits, and much more. Charting the Golden Age of the '50s and '60s; the turbulent years of the '70s and '80s; and the growth of downsizing, outsourcing, and instability in the modern era, Wartzman's narrative is a biography of the American Dream gone sideways. Deeply researched and compelling, The End of Loyalty will make you rethink how Americans can begin to resurrect the middle class.

United States of America – Right Now
Author: John H. Davis
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1499021062
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
The book addresses the origin and foundation of the American Dream, which equates to unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These rights were proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence, won through the American Revolution War, guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, and preserved by dedicated citizens. During the past several decades, we have witnessed a severe deterioration in traditional family and national core values, which are contributing to the current problems plaguing the USA. These problems are compounded by the negative attitudes manifested by many Americans concerning their unalienable rights and the provisions of the U.S. Constitution. The current situation is a potential threat to the preservation of the Dream and USA’s existence as a free nation. The publication highlights the provisions of the U.S. Constitution, major social, economic, and political developments; current situations in the United States that adversely impact on the Dream; and how Americans unwittingly and deliberately distort the provisions of the U.S. Constitution by failing to perform their duties and responsibilities and deliberately conduct acts that adversely impact the welfare of the people and the security of the nation. To this end, the book addresses solutions and actions for preserving the American Dream.

Arguments and Arguing
Author: Thomas A. Hollihan
Publisher: Waveland Press
ISBN: 1478632011
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 389
Book Description
The latest edition of Arguments and Arguing contains the same balance of theory and practice, breadth of coverage, current and relevant examples, and accessible writing style that made previous editions so popular in hundreds of classrooms. The authors draw from classic and recent argumentation theory and research, contextualized with well-chosen examples, to showcase a narrative style of argumentation and the values and attitudes of audiences. Readers learn how to employ both formal and informal argumentative strategies in an array of communication forums—from interpersonal interactions to academic debate to politics to business. A newly added chapter on visual argumentation and a striking color photo insert demonstrate the value and power of visual elements in the construction of arguments. The ability to argue is necessary if people are to solve problems, resolve conflicts, and evaluate alternative courses of action. While many are taught that arguing is counterproductive and arguments should be avoided, Hollihan and Baaske illustrate that arguing is an essential and fundamental human activity. Learning the art of effective argumentation entails a grasp of not only the strategies and principles of analysis and logical reasoning but also the importance of arguing in a positive and socially constructive fashion.
