A Toxic Work World By Anne-Marie Slaughter

In conclusion, the author opposes every idea mentioned in the article. This proves that his negative attitude could affect the way the reader views his points. White’s explanation of the pros and cons contradict his opinions shown in the article. In regard to the author presenting this article with facts, he failed to support them with any credibility. Thus, his assumptions are weak which make his claim unreliable.

Connection to the audience is what page needs in order to improve her argument and allow the audience to trust and relate to page. Next, The reliance on others work is too much and for an effective argument they must be either cut out or be provided more elaboration towards them. Another reason for this ineffective article is the absence of Page's opinion and how she could believes or does not believe that there is a hope or a fix to the problem she has presented. If Page could improve on these areas she may be able to write a more effective

However this article could have been perceived better if it had an intended audience other than the general public. She had enough evidence to support her claim and enough to say that it could have easily been made into a formal essay with a better, more educated audience offhand that might have taken her more seriously. While it is necessary to get information out there to everyone, perhaps the more educated population could have done more with this type of article.

I like and agree with you on the way as you presented your analysis, I agree that Elizabeth Svoboda makes use of real-life examples from start to ending not only to support her article, but to captivate the audience and make it more real and credible to the readers, and in the meantime, to support the what, why and how. I noticed the uses of Facts vs Opinion included this in your summary. You definitely established your agreements with the author with a solid basis.

The author has many weaknesses and strengths. As said before, the author lacks the differing of other viewpoints and also more facts. Although, the author does a great job of of clarifying her passion for the subject and making it clear that this is an emotional subject on her part. She provides the right information to prove that she is confident in this subject, but not enough information to prove that other people have a different viewpoint on the subject.

Anne-Marie Slaughter constructed the article, “Why Women Still Can’t Have It All” including personal and statistical measures to prove that, though women have come far, they are not to the standard of men. She begins the article informing us of her job as the first female director of policy planning at the State Department in Washington D.C. Admittingly, with such a high-profile job and finding herself struggling to balance her 14-year-old son, she made the decision to quit her job after two years. Accordingly, Slaughter pondered her years working in a high power workplace, realizing

Also there were multiple occasions where it felt like the article was lacking important information or where Cappelli could have backed up what he said by supplying facts and citing the source. Cappelli also failed to cite some of the facts he did have, leading you to question the validity of the information provided. Also the language, that Cappelli uses is perfect for this article, as his choice of words is precise thoughtful. The words he chose made it an easy read for readers of all levels. Cappelli masterfully set up a very persuasive piece.

This article was a bit hard for me to understand. I had trouble finding what I the authors meaning was. I had trouble with the counter argument and I felt I sidetracked. I am not all pleased with this essay. I asked for help from my family members. I discussed my intentions to write about and revised it with them. It actually left me feeling a

Not only is his piece well written, it is also well detailed and very persuasive. To begin his article, he develops a clear statement to determine his position and views. One of his strongest parts in conducting his article is the introduction of his concept. He introduces his subject by getting right to the point. He then support his proposal by facts and evidence.

Despite the fact that Omar failed to use much research and study information, he does uses logical conclusions to back up his claims and convey his message. He provides a list of facts, but they cannot be verified as true without reliable sources. However, he does use first-hand experiences and logical conclusions to help build his case. Overall, the piece could use some work, such as more outside experts and more of a formal approach to be more convincing to the readers. Even so, the article had a great impact on getting the message through to the readers.

This article was not as enjoyable. It read like a science experiment of the difficulties women faced. Comparing white women troubles and solutions to black women’s hardships and solutions. Instead of it being about the women and just revealing the differences in an it is important to know fashion. She made the differences the object. This was also drowned by stats and tables, which for some may be appealing. It wasn’t for me, especially since the piece was on humans and their performance not machines.

The author’s development of explaining the theory and validity of the research had minimum thorough explanation. The results were provided through quantitative means instead of qualitative. This is not an issue; however, this could have been studied

The article is very well writing and seems to be very well researched in many areas throughout the entire article. What I am not impressed with is the way that the author executed some of the beginnings and endings of topics. There were some instances where it did not make any sense to me.

Companies and governments hire many employees. The workers have diverse feelings about their jobs some of them are happy with their jobs other not. That happened for many reasons to many reasons. People all over the world are suffered from the problem of differentiating between the sexes, and this research will focus on government and non-government employees in the United States of America. Even though the United States has many states with various policies, gender has a significant role about the advantages and disadvantages of the works. There are many variances between men and women in a workplace. It is clear to see the differences of wage, hierarchy, and ability. Moreover, in the beginning of the twentieth century, American women were responsible for housework and child-rearing except some works outside the home, such as nursing, and men worked outside the home to bring some money to feed their families. In the 1960s, the big change in the concept of work had occurred. It started laws issued to eject

Karoshi is a Japanese term that refers to death from overwork. The fact that this type of death is commonplace enough to get its own designated term is alarming and calls into question the extreme work practices of the Japanese culture. Although American society is not yet as intense as Japanese society, with the ever-increasing demands of the workplace, the first American death from overwork might not be too far off. Work is taking over people’s lives and many workers, especially those in white collar jobs, are finding it difficult to strike a balance between their work and their home life. In many cases, the family is the institution that suffers the brunt of the consequences as its demands are pushed aside by work demands. In the wake of this crisis, some were quick to place the blame on various members of society, among them Anne-Marie Slaughter and Richard Dorment. In her essay “Why Women Still Can’t Have it All”, Slaughter places the majority of the blame on men, particularly on the patriarchal structure of the workplace that leaves little room for having a family life. In response to her essay, Dorment wrote “Why Men still Can’t Have It All” in which he asserts that men cannot be responsible since they too must sacrifice their family life for their work. While they both offer compelling arguments, they fail to take into account the role of a capitalist society. Because of its lack of paid family leave, the stigma associated with being a parent, and its overwork
