Abstract
French philosopher Michel Foucault and French writer Simone de Beauvoir were both interested in how sexuality and the body had become the sites of power and politics in Western society. Both focused on the socially imposed structures that objectified sexual identity and gender differences. Foucault became interested in the language that was used by elites to objectify sexuality. Thus, he was more focused on the elites that appointed themselves as the arbiters of what was "normal" and "abnormal" in sexuality. De Beauvoir, meanwhile, was interested in how elites shaped sexuality to the disadvantage of women.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper states that Lonely Planet Publications is a highly successful organization that has successfully grown and developed in a niche market providing high quality and highly factual travel information on a global basis. The author believes that the company has a very solid reputation and wishes to continue its growth without sacrificing the internal culture that has been a cornerstone of its success. The author underscores that both the Five Forces and Strategic Group Models de-emphasize the role of innovation and the significance of individual company differences while overemphasizing the importance of industry and strategic group structure as determinants of company profit rates; therefore, in analyzing Lonely Planet specifically, this can lead to dangerously erroneous conclusions.

From the Paper
"Lonely Planet, for the most part, was protected against these industry trends and really leveraged the travel market niche by providing readers with highly factual (and highly accurate) information. They did not try to compete on an entertainment level, nor did they go out of their way to endorse outside products, go overboard on advertising, or any other approach that would de-focus the message they were trying to convey-Lonely Planet is about providing factual and highly accurate information to the traveler. Many readers were know to tear out pages perceived to be of little value, to "skin down" the book and make it lighter, smaller, more easily packable. By catering to this market niche, they were able also to make themselves more resilient to the effects of recession."

Abstract
The paper emphasizes the important role gambling can play in society, both in the economic and business sectors as well as in the charitable and community fields. The paper then contrasts this with the problems that compulsive gambling can lead to, such as crime and social dysfunction. The paper concludes by stressing the need to strike a balance in order to obtain the advantages of gambling, but evade its harmful impacts.
From the Paper
"Many people see gambling as an evil, as Thorstein Veblen stated that gambling is "a hindrance to the highest industrial efficiency of the aggregate in any community where it prevails" and concluded that "it should be seen as destructive in an industrial society" (Veblen, 1899 cited in Campell, Felicia,1976). On the other hand, some people think that "gambling makes up a major portion of the economy, show that, by and large, gambling is beneficial to the gambler and increases rather than decreases his efficiency and productivity" (Campell, Felicia, 1976).
