Three major factors influence demographics in the United States today. First, life expectancy is increasing. It is expected that the percentage of the population over age 65 will increase from approximately 12 percent in 1990 to around 18 percent in 2030 . Second, the "baby boomers," individuals born between 1946 and 1970, are reaching middle age. Third, the Hispanic and black segments of the
population are growing more rapidly than the remainder of the population. It is difficult to state exactly how these factors will affect individual firms and society as a whole. One can surmise, however, that the aging of the population will place increasing pressure on the social infrastructure and provide opportunities in healthcare and related industries. The growth of noncaucasian populations and the increasing number of women in the workforce raise the importance of recognizing, honoring, and managing cultural diversity. These issues must be positively addressed by the top management of business firms, not-for-profit organizations, and government agencies. a. explanation and example b. enumeration and explanation c. definition and explanation
The greatest artist of romantic protest was the Spanish painter Francisco Goya (1746–1828), whose paintings and drawings depicted the senseless brutality of war and oppression. In 1808 Goya was court painter in Madrid when Napoleon’s army invaded Spain to overthrow the weakened Spanish monarchy. Spanish citizens rose in sporadic but violent resistance to the French army, fighting the first guerrilla war. The uprising generated mutual reprisals of extreme brutality, which Goya sketched in a horrifying series called The Disasters of War. Goya’s protest is best captured in the painting Executions of the Third of May, 1808. The picture portrays the execution of Spanish insurgents in Madrid by a French firing squad. The scene is presented with such a raw truthfulness that the picture has
been called the “explosion of modern painting.” A) Goya’s most famous painting was the Disasters of War, which depicted Napoleon’s brutality. B) Goya protested the senseless brutality of war and oppression through his paintings and drawings. C) Francisco Goya was a great artist who participated in the first guerilla war against the French army.
