The case of “Janet Cooke and the Washington Post” in the frame of Robinson

Nowa eld, our everyday life can not be assumed without deviance being inherent in upbringing, at workplace and other beas. The most common type of deviance can be observed at the workplace. Although this field is quite new, various patternualizations are brought forward by different scientists.At this point the query of Robinson and Greenberg (1998) is worth plot of land. These researchers distinguish five dimensions of deviance perpetrator, intention, target, performance and consequence. In the following paragraph, the case of Janet Cooke and the Washington Post bothow for be analyzed in the scope of in a higher place-mentioned dimensions.Profound analysis of the case studyAccording to Robinson and Greenbergs five dimensions, perpetrator might be in spite of appearancer or remoter (Robinson and Greenberg, 1998). In this case, being involved in an illegal follow up Janet Cooke can be described as a perpetrator. So, working as a reporter in the Washington Post, she is an i nsider (somebody) and not an organization.Deviant action can be executed intention bothy or circumstantially (Robinson and Greenberg, 1998). Clearly, Cookes intentions were to get achievement and reputation, while using a spurious way to be on the list of well-known and recognized journalists. So, Cooke intentionally cheated both society and organization she was a part of, endeavoring to adopt her mercenary intentions.In my point of view, the action of this reporter was not intentionally harmful, targeting either organization or lot. Obviously, while writing the story about Jimmy, she did not suppose that her action would bring great disparage to the reputation of the Washington Post. In addition, she did not expect her article to be awarded Pulitzer.Robinson and Greenberg divide targets of deviant actions into these categories inside and outside individual and organizational additional. So, Janets action directed toward both inside organization (Washington Post) and outside r eaders of newspaper. Apart from it, organizational (organization itself) and additional (people reading Janets article) targets can be defined in this case, as both of these categories were misled.Information given in Janets article was based on non- effectual and exaggerated story. Consequently, the action of Janet, having an illegal basis, disrupts both organizational and societal norms. Certainly, if organizational norms and behavior are contrasted by actions of an individual, they are plainly foc apply on personal interests, being a workplace deviance.Although Janet did not expect, her action resulted in forbid consequences. First of all, the reputation of the newspaper she worked for was seriously damaged. Apart from it, such kind of activity is shameful for the predict of journalism. The core of journalism is to provide society with valid and credible information, whereas, her action ran counter to it.Conclusion aft(prenominal) having analyzed this case, it can be concluded that all the actions having illegal intentions should be avoided, otherwise, consequences can be unavoidably harmful for both society and organization, either intentionally or unintentionally.ReferencesRobinson, Sandra L Greenberg Jerald.

Clearly, laws have always been discipline to amendment, though, some of them accepted in one country are completely objected at another one.So, this bit paves the way for people and businesses to avoid law without breaking it in either their own countries or abroad. In the modern, rapidly developing world globalization and neo-li beralism heavily contribute to this process (Passas, 2005). The provided essay will wrangle the fancys of lawful, but awful and crimes without law violation in the context of the Azerbaijan Republic, trying to find out differences and aspects they are based on. Moreover, there will be given examples to clarify it.The theory of lawful, but awfulThe concept of lawful, but awful was originally developed by professor Nikos Passas describing it as activities being legal while having negative consequences or eluding regulations and laws not accepted in this or that country (2005). Prior to handsome examples reflecting the concept of lawful, but awful in the Republic of Azerbaijan, three categories of it defined by Passas will be given Firstly, corporations have legal businesses while producing harmful or dangerous products such as cigarettes, weapons, and alcohol (Passas, 2005).Secondly, despite producing usanceful products for the society corporations release toxic materials, waste s, and etc., causing damage to society, environment and country (Passas, 2005). Finally, the ternion category describes some industries pursing public purposes mostly aimed at raising money rather than positively bestow to the society, thus resulting in negative outcomes (Passas, 2005). A few examples will be given to illustrate the concept of lawful, but awfulShadow education in AzerbaijanThe shadow education is the term describing extra education provided by teachers for extra money beyond the official curriculum (Transparency International, 2013).It is a widespread example of this concept severely spreading in some parts of the world. Turning to Azerbaijan there are many actual examples of this term. Since the Soviet Union collapsed many public sectors have deteriorated including the education system. In recent years, people have intensively been concentrated on education and career making to cope with stiff competition on the labor market. AAdditionally, the salaries of teache rs do not conform to standards and salute of living in our country. Consequently, all the above mentioned circumstances have given teachers the opportunity to riposte advantage of them, getting involved in insular tutoring to raise extra revenues.Studying for exams to enter universities and other educational institutions most of current students tend to take extra classes to get scores they target as curriculum taught at school is deliberately take down by teachers to attract more students to their private tutoring. Although this type of activity is not prohibited by the law provided a teacher pays taskes to government, yet such type of private tutoring has a negative impact on the level of education within the country.Difficulties of entrepreneurship issuance in AzerbaijanSome years ago potential businessmen used to go through complex stages to have their entrepreneurships issued. Initially, they had to be involved in long procedures taking ivty days until they were implement ed, thus preventing many of them to set up businesses. Apart from it paved the way for corruption, involving bribery, to accelerate the process of entrepreneurship issuance.Consequently, all the above indicated factors impeded the development of the private business sector being one of the important contributors in the economy of the country and well-being of the society. Due to the latest reforms this procedure has been reduced to only two days, exhilarating the development of private sector.The concept of Crimes without law violationThe concept of crimes without law violation is based on principles involving elusion of regulations and laws using various frauds and loopholes without infringing national or international legislation.Tax machinations in AzerbaijanIn the Republic of Azerbaijan a person involved in entrepreneurship is supposed to pay tax incomees to the government depending on their let go ofover of business. Having a turnover not exceeding 120000 manats per year phys ical and legal persons are supposed to pay four percent modify tax. However, if this amount is over 120000 manats, entrepreneurs are supposed to pay 18% value added tax (VAT) (taxes.gov.az, 2015).Clearly, this large happy chance paves the way for tax evasion with many business people coming up with tricks to evade tax legislation. One of the tricks is to establish a few companies having different names and TINs sharing turnover among them so as not to pay 18% VAT. Consequently, this action is considered to be violation, however, no law is broken, thus reflecting the concept of crimes without law violationSale and purchase machinations in AzerbaijanAccording to property and tax legislation of the Republic of Azerbaijan, when selling or purchasing a real estate, an owner is supposed to pay taxes to government. One is supposed to pay four percent providing property price does not exceed 120000. However, the amount over this sum is prevail over to 18%.So, some tricks are also used to evade this tax. Usually, seller and buyer agree to reduce the cost of property in the sale and purchase agreement to the amount being less than 120000. Consequently, in fact, these people are not involved in tax evasion as official documents have valid information with no law violation, though, their machination involves tricks to defraud the government.ConclusionIt can be clearly concluded that, all countries over the world have laws and regulations, though they often differ from each other depending on a country. However, businesses and individuals having different intentions are often aimed at finding loopholes to avoid law violation and punishment, while engage their goals. Obviously, it is challenging for countries to monitor this activity with no law broken and anybody to bring to justice.Exactly, there are plastered reasons contributing to the above-mentioned tendency. Primarily, shadow education arises from law salaries and drawbacks in educational system, making teachers and people turn to private tutoring. As regards the example of tax machination, it is obvious that it is based on some flaws in the tax code, such as a large gap between 4% and 18% tax, inciting people to use tricks to elude high taxes. Consequently, along with public awareness these loopholes should be filled in, otherwise, this tendency is not subject to healthy change.
