Examine your egocentricity.

Lesson 3 – Examine your egocentricity
Lesson 3
As you’ve come to learn, ego centrism is one of many limitations to critical thinking!
Ego centrism is a concept coined by Jean Piaget while exploring the stages of cognitive development in children. Essentially, it refers to the subconscious thinking functions of our minds that we deny we have. For example, no one says “I think I will think egocentrically for a while”.
Its ultimate goals are gratification and self-validation. It does not respect the rights and needs of others, though it may be protective of those with whom it ego-identifies.
View Mr. Feisal Abdul Rauf in this Ted Talk, as he discusses the impact of our egos and how it can, unfortunately, limit us.
As it relates to critical thinking, what has been your personal experience with Egocentrism? Specifically, think of a time when your desire to selfishly get what you want failed because of your egocentric thinking. How then did this impact your ability to critically think? To make it interesting, try exploring an experience in your particular field of study. It might even be helpful to complete these statements:
The situation was as follows…
When I didn’t get what I wanted, I thought…and behaved…
A more rational way to think would have been…
A more rational way to act would have been…
Post your example here, be sure to provide specific examples and expound upon on what you’ve written! Specifically, I’ll be looking for the ways in which you believe you may have implemented egocentricity.

What new conditions of existence does that transformation make possible?

1)
“The way of the ghost is haunting, and haunting is a very particular way of knowing what has happened or is happening. Being haunted draws us affectively, sometimes against our will and always a bit magically, into the structure of feeling of a reality we come to experience, not as cold knowledge, but as a transformative recognition”
– Gordon, Ghostly Matters. P. 8

In The Others, a case can be made that the movie is talking about the promises, as well as the perils of such a ‘transformative recognition’. In what ways does the movie demonstrate ‘recognition’ rather than simply ‘knowledge’ as the end-product, and in what ways is that recognition transformative: what, or who, is transformed? What new conditions of existence does that transformation make possible?

2)
“Possession and the loss of autonomy is perhaps the main fear…”
– Curtis, Dark Places. P. 24

One can see the desire for (dream of…), and the pursuit of both autonomy and sovereignty in The Others. It is perhaps also a cautionary tale that sovereignty and autonomy are more fraught with tension than we might initially believe them to be (personally, socially, and politically). In this question, please grapple with the twin ideas of autonomy and sovereignty: how they are present in the movie AND how the movie seems to destabilize or undercut them as desires, goals, or normative ideals.

3)
“If after two generations the injustice appears embedded within society, then it may be time to search for other solutions to the problem”
– Spinner-Halev, Enduring Injustice, P. 11

Injustices can become ‘embedded’, ghosts are ‘embedded’. How does ‘embedded-ness’ function within this movie as a part of the narrative structure, or as part of the very geographic, architectural ‘reality’ that we experience (both as the characters experience or the viewers experiences). What does embeddedness do to the characters, or what impact does it have on their ‘place’ in the world?

How is the current CSR implementation by corporations in Vietnam.

How is the current CSR implementation by corporations in Vietnam.With the purpose to find the answer to the main research question “How is the current CSR implementation by corporations in Vietnam?”, the researcher narrowed down it into three sub-questions:
● RQ1: What is the CSR situation in Vietnam?
● RQ2: What are the CSR practices that corporations in Vietnam implement?
● RQ3: What kind of challenges do corporations in Vietnam face when applying CSR?”

Your job is to write the Literature Review part of my thesis based on my research question. You can write about CSR theories, models, and practices. Please first send me the sections (table of contents) of what you want to write in this literature review so I could examine it first. I’ll also send you my paper of what I’ve written (around 6 pages) so you could have an overview of this.

Please also send me a Turnitin report after you upload the paper so I can check for plagiarism.
