Many schools have already begun offering coursework that deals with global issues, as well as study abroad and foreign exchange programs centered on a particular field or major.  Additionally, most large universities have students from all over the world.  So, diversity is reasonably well covered.  What's missing is the global community aspect.  Cooperative projects between students at US and foreign schools would go far to help students see the value and difficulties of living in a "Global Community."

A partnership is a type of business entity in which partners share with each other the profits or losses of the business undertaking in which all have invested.\n\nIn most countries, a partnership is a nominate contract between individuals who, in a spirit of cooperation, agree to carry on an enterprise, contribute to it, by combining property, knowledge or activities and to share its profit. Partners may have a partnership agreement, or declaration of partnership and in some jurisdictions such agreements may be registered and available for public inspection. In many countries, a partnership is also considered to be a legal entity, although different legal systems reach different conclusions on this point.\n\nPartnerships are often favored over corporations for taxation purposes, as a partnership structure may eliminate the dividend tax levied upon profits realized by the owners of a corporation.\n\nThe most basic form of partnership is a general partnership, in which all partners manage the business and are personally liable for its debts. Two other forms which have developed in most countries are the limited partnership (LP), in which certain "limited partners" relinquish their ability to manage the business in exchange for limited liability for the partnership's debts, and the limited liability partnership (LLP), in which all partners have some degree of limited liability.

corporate definition\n\nPertaining to corporations. Corporations are the most common form of business organization, and one which is chartered by a state and given many legal rights as an entity separate from its owners. This form of business is characterized by the limited liability of its owners, the issuance of shares of easily transferable stock, and existence as a going concern. The process of becoming a corporation, call incorporation, gives the company separate legal standing from its owners and protects those owners from being personally liable in the event that the company is sued (a condition known as limited liability). Incorporation also provides companies with a more flexible way to manage their ownership structure. In addition, there are different tax implications for corporations, although these can be both advantageous and disadvantageous. In these respects, corporations differ from sole proprietorships and limited partnerships. \n\nCorporate Functions or Enterprise workforce provides deep expertise to manage and operate business functions and support client teams. They work in a wide range of functional areas including human resources, marketing and communications, finance, quality control, legal, IT, facilities and service.

Based on the following I don't think capitalism exists anywhere.  Even the US has it's controls on business and it's welfare agencies.  Prior to it's turn over to China, Hong Kong was probably the closest thing to pure capitalism on the planet.  At least that is my opinion.\n \ncap·i·tal·ism (kăp'ĭ-tl-ĭz'əm) \nAn economic system in which the means of production and distribution are privately or corporately owned and development is proportionate to the accumulation and reinvestment of profits gained in a free market.\n\nSocialism, general term for the political and economic theory that advocates a system of collective or government ownership and management of the means of production and distribution of goods. Because of the collective nature of socialism, it is to be contrasted to the doctrine of the sanctity of private property that characterizes capitalism. Where capitalism stresses competition and profit, socialism calls for cooperation and social service.\nIn a broader sense, the term socialism is often used loosely to describe economic theories ranging from those that hold that only certain public utilities and natural resources should be owned by the state to those holding that the state should assume responsibility for all economic planning and direction. In the past 150 years there have been innumerable differing socialist programs. For this reason socialism as a doctrine is ill defined, although its main purpose, the establishment of cooperation in place of competition remains fixed.

Often due to major restructurings, downsizing, re-engineering, mergers, joint ventures or other forms of alliances, many organisations find that their people  \nare not working well together.   Companies lose clients, lose key talent or fail to remain competitive and sustain a competitive advantage, because of poor cross- \nfunctional communications, internal conflicts, misunderstandings and stress, or because of poor working relations across various boundaries, especially in our 'globalised' world. \n\n\nWe work with organisations seeking to improve profitability by leveraging the potential in their human capital - we help them build bridges across cultures, whether departmental, corporate or international.  We work with managers to create effective cooperation and synergy within their organisations. \n\n\nHOW TO BRIDGE GAPS TO BUILD COOPERATION ACROSS BORDERS

"Community-based ecconomics" is class-economics. You move into a neighborhood you can afford and your associates earn approximately the same as you do.\n\nCapitalism is when the elite members of a society control all the money and futures of companies and products that their wisdom persuades them to invest in.\n\nSocialism is best left to be enjoyed by the elderly and frail whom can not contribute to their society and can be sustained by a modest monthly stipend to pay for rents and a quota of food.

Residents get geared up when their problem solving switch gets flipped. Promote a cooperative exchange by bringing them in the unit and showing them the present procedures, enlist their help (hehe) by soliciting comments on possible improvements, or benefits gained by following current procedure.\nThat way they have a clearer perception of why you do what you do. (yea). And your department can benefit from the input too.

In plain English, a union is affiliated to and supports the labour movement and often the Labour Party but might actually be a member of such as the Co-operative Party which forms a major section of Labour.\n\nA staff association is seldom affiliated to the labour movement or ever part of the TUC (Trades Union Congress).  Staff associations are often created by the owners of companies and do not come from the Labour Movement.

It was created in the 1920s out of a visceral dislike for (and suspicion of) private grain companies. It existed quite well, thank you, for many decades from the 1930s until the 1990s, when overexpansion put it into grave financial trouble. I still like the idea of a large co-operative as an alternative to conventional heartless capitalism business.
