I am putting here my topic proposal that I handed to my professor and his comments on it. PLEASE TRY TO ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS ON HIS COMMENT AND FOCUS ON COVERING THE POINTS MY PROFESSOR HAS ASKED FOR


MY TOPIC PROPOSAL:
Clearly State question: In this paper I will discuss Egypt as a democratic country and question that based on their election system and I will focus on the boycotts done by opposition parties. The reason I eventually decided to talk about Egypt’s reform is that first of all it is an Arabic country and I am Arab and second is that in my country we do not go through any elections and we do not have democracy at all so I cannot do a research on my country. But it would be interesting to see how things go in other Arabian countries that are new to democracy and get a hint of the way things would go in my country if one day it became a democratic one.
Show the preliminary research: One of the topics we had in this class was the boycotts and the opposition parties who actually boycott which while searching lead me to Egypt’s situation. I learned that in Egypt, presidential polls featured only Mubarak’s name on the ballot and citizens had the chance to vote only yes or no which is is really interesting. I have also learned that the United States were pressuring Egypt to allow democratic reforms and that it lead eventually to allow multiple candidates to run for president but even with that change, Mubarak is still the president which makes me wonder if there is a kind of fraud and manipulation. If there was any fraud I will talk about it briefly because I will be focusing more on the opposition party
which is the Islamic brotherhood party who boycotts. In class we learned that boycotts have good consequences like the fact that it could lead to some democratic changes “by attracting more international attention” and I think it applies to Egypt case sense the United States had a little pressure on Egypt I would argue that maybe some how the opposition party’s boycott, the Islamic brotherhood party, has a relation to that fact.

Essay Instructions: Applied Project
Scenario: Union Avoidance Project

You are a Human Resources Manager at BNY Mellon. At the current time, none of your employees belongs to a union. However, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, a national union, is attempting to organize your employees. The senior management of your company appears to be adamantly opposed to the presence of a union at your company and wants to do everything possible to defeat this union drive, including, if necessary:

?Speaking to individual workers, to let them know what management regards as the dangers of unionization, including economic harm to the company and possible layoffs.

?Assembling all workers, in large groups, to speak against unionization, and asking all workers to declare publicly whether they intend to vote for or against the union.

?Making pay changes, both up and down, to certain workers to prove that employees are better off without a union, and may suffer if they play too active a role in organizing.

?Immediately laying off all desk clerks and subcontracting the work to a part-time labor force.

?Other strategies suggested by your research as well.

Based on these facts, you are to prepare a union avoidance program for the company's Senior Management Team. This program should:

?Summarize management?s rights during an organizing drive and respond specifically to each of the possible actions listed above.

?Outline your complete strategy in supporting the company?s position of remaining union free.
