Sociological Cultural Opinions This assignment dealt with two different topics: Jane Elliot's seminal Blue Eyed/Brown Eyed lesson in racism, set forth in the video, A Class Divided; and Howard Zinn's anti-war thoughts in the videos, Empire or Humanity and Just War. Elliot was a courageous, pioneering educator who devised a lesson with an approach that was: timely, because it started immediately after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s assassination and in the late 60's, which were culturally tumultuous in America's history; profoundly effective, because you can see the stunning impact it had on the students and, frankly, because it made some people angry at Elliot, which is frequently a good sign of effectiveness; and forward-thinking, because understanding other races and cultures is a pillar of diversity, which is now acknowledged to be nationally and globally vital. Furthermore, eye color was and is an excellent metaphor for race because it cannot be helped (unless one wears those awful-looking contacts) and it has no bearing on human capabilities. Zinn discussed the possibility of Peace and the truth of War. Despite the persistence of war in History, Zinn's videos, Empire or Humanity and Just War, give eye-opening and positive views of a possible world without war. The conditions preventing peace are certainly powerful and longstanding; however, conditions that support Peace are also plentiful. It is easy to see why Zinn has been called a "happy warrior," as he was an intelligent, insightful, persistent anti-war activist who made a great deal of sense about the true reasons for war and the genuine possibility of Peace.

Studies conducted and/or reviewed by Bendick, Egan, and Lanier reveal that so-called "diversity" can be detrimental to the employee, company and customer if diversity is followed in a shortsighted manner. Rather than accept enslavement to "diversity," the authors explore inclusion, "in which all employees are treated fairly and with civility, have equal access to resources and opportunities, and are able to contribute fully to their employers' objectives and thus their own success" through assessment and utilization of the employee's full range of job-specific skills, teaching and enhancement of "cultural competence," training, guided hiring, guided assignments, guided promotions, guided compensation systems and monitored systems holding managers accountable for "inclusion practices and diversity outcomes." As is illustrated by Tesco's case, a company's inclusion/diversity plan can be admirable yet poor unless the plan is carefully plotted and applied.

Globalization has altered the way HR management is undertaken in various organizations. Outsourcing of services appears to be the current trend as shown in this study.
