What we don’t think about is the fact that most medical and quite a few technological advancements evolved because of war. Another fact is that, although it’s hard to believe, but war makes countries use their resources better, or at least find better ways to use them. Think about it, most countries try to win wars and to do that, you need to be better than the people that you are fighting, so we use our resources better. Another thing, without war, we might not have certain medical advancements at our disposal; such as penicillin, hydrogen peroxide, and antiseptics. Life would be a lot harder if these things had never been created, wouldn’t it?
At the beginning of World War I America attempted to stay neutral and focus on asserting their dominance throughout the western hemisphere, but as the war progressed it became clearer that America wanted and needed to enter the war. While many things had a profound impact on America’s entrance into WWI, American economic interests, Woodrow Wilson’s idealism, and American claim to world power, weighed heavily on the final decision to declare war on Germany. War provides a great opportunity for economic and industrial growth, a chance to change, and claim world power, as long as the country wins the war. American economic benefits of the war were not as prominent a factor as others, but nevertheless it did affect America’s decision to declare war. The economic side effects of entering a war can be beneficial to a country.
In Why Nations Go to War, Dr.John G Stoessinger talks about the role of individuals in starting wars. He is of the view that factors like economics, nationalism, alliance networks and even fate are often put forward as the primary reasons for the outbreak of a war, but the human element, the personalities, the hopes and fears and the particular worldview of the individual leaders of the country are not given nearly as much importance. The writer points out that wars are after all, started by people and to a large extent, the book deals with the lead up to the moment when people finally decide to go to war. The author holds a Ph.D. from Harvard and has taught at Harvard, M.I.T, Columbia and Princeton. He won the Bancroft Prize for his book, The Might of Nations and he has served as acting director for the political affairs division at the United Nations.
It depends on how this change would affect not only the company, but how it would affect the brokers? If they did make the change to more subjective assessments and cross-selling, they would have to consider the fact that many brokers may leave because they prefer their pay to be determined based on objective/incentive based measures. With a greater emphasis on cross-selling, this adds more areas the brokers need to become knowledgeable in which could require more time, resources, and training. One the other hand, this also adds a competitive advantage for the company and another area for brokers to make money, which could be a leg up within the bidding wars, especially if they have the opportunity to make more money. Overall, I would say that Bank of America needs to do their research and gather data from not only the brokers but also the customers to help determine their best course of
This would increase the costs and result in the firms passing on the costs to the consumers, this would increase the prices of the goods causing negative externalities and discourage them from being bought. If there is an over production in the goods due to negative externalities, it means (s) has shifted to (s1). Which results in too many goods being supplied out to the public. The prices are also very low which makes it easier for them to buy goods, especially those with lower income. At the point the social cost [s1] is not taken into account only the private cost is.
Another factor was if a country were wealthier due to economic factors, they did not want to support the rest of the region so the desire for secession was higher. 3. Physical settings did play a part in the boundaries. The countries lie with mountains between water ways and the fertile northeast. Serbia attempted to take more land at one time from the area of Croatia.
key causes of war: Depending on which conflict that is being referred to the key causes of war are many and very broad. The key causes that are put foward include the theory of Structuralism which refers to the changing in the distribution of power within the global system as the primary factor in determining a states behavior. Enduring rivalries which is prolonged competition between great powers or other pairs of countries whos conflicting interests often lead to war. Balance of power which explains the tendency of opposed coalitions to be formed so the distribution of military power is balanced to prevent one single power from dominating others. Rational choice is the theory that decison makers choose on the basis of what is best for themselves and their states.
One reason is the emperors would appoint family and friends to positions with authority. This move would greatly corrupt the government. Second reason, Han expanded its territory too far to the point where it was too much to handle. So bureaucrats ruling towns far away from Han's capital could do anything they wanted. They would raise rent on peasants who didn’t have much which resulted in people going against authorities.
For the USSR this would mean large buffer zones before (another war) enemies get into mainland Russia. The larger area would also increase their world wide influence. This would make other countries think twice about waging war on such a big and powerful country. With the benefit of these larger areas more natural resources are available, such as wood and metals. It would also mean cheap workforce, i.e.
In the writing of ‘Warmaking and Statemaking as Organized Crime,’ he tells a story of capital, sphere of exploitation, and coercion, realm of armed forces. According to him, the main characteristic of the state is to use coercion to sustain its existence. State making began with the effort to monopolize the means of violence within a given territory. And as war became more expansive and expensive due to expansion of territory and military innovation, respectively, only states with a sufficient capital and large population could afford paying for security to survive in the hostile war era (Taxation was created to allow war-making). Furthermore, Tilly emphasized the application of cultural control through developing national languages and education systems.
