The ultimate solution for a problem should refer back to the problem itself. This is the Fundamental logic implied in the Mathematical theory: ∀a ∈ A : a R a. By purely interpreting the notations, one could deduce the concept: all the integers “a” that belong to (∈) Set “A” has a relation (R) with themselves. In other words, binary relation R over the set A is reflexive, if every element in Set A is self-related. Overall, the notion of Reflexive Relation is constituted. While such relations as “is greater than or equal to” or “is less than or equal to” could be determined to have reflexivity, the indispensable part of the two examples is “equal to”. In other words, a matter and its manifestation are somehow shaped and connected in a loop. …show more content…
The disparate and culturally specific meaning of a similar or identical imagery in Chinese artworks is inseparable with the contradictory social context in China. Nevertheless, those non-Chinese artists, who also have been stuck in a bizzarre stance in their countries, might convey a semiotic meaning alike, as in the case of Sots Art in the Soviet Union, in comparison with the Chinese Political Pop Art. In the artwork Great Criticism: Coca-Cola by Wang Guangyi, the artist encompassed propaganda images of ‘Red Guards ’ in the uniformed Mao suits, along with the “Coca-Cola” logo to convey a sense of sarcasm towards the social context in the aftermath of the junction between the Cultural Revolution and the emerging consumerism culture in China. Interestingly enough, the composition of the artwork looks a lot like Lenin and coca cola (1982) painted by Sots Artist Alexander Kosolapov, who juxtaposed the Coca-cola logo with the portrait of Lenin, the former Leader of the Soviet Union. In the 1980s, when the artwork was painted, the communism political system in the Soviet Union collided with the western consumerism, just like the situation in China in the 1990s. In this sense, this particular circumstance seems to inspire both Wang and Kosolapov to appropriate logos with political
Factors are whole numbers of a number that can be multiplied together to get the original number. Example: Factors of 50 include: 50 and 1, 25 and 2, 10 and 5 (This is because each set can be multiplied together to get 50.) -What is an equivalent? Having a particular property in common; also known as being equal. Two fractions or rational expression are equivalent when they have equal denominators.
Notkin states “The image was chosen not to ridicule, but to capture some essence of the man” (3). In other words, to reveal the real side of Bush on how he was two-faced. The image reveals the truth to society, which is constantly being told lies by people like Bush. The artist was just revealing the truth about Bush. Notkins analysis of his piece of art called “All Nations Have Their Moment of Foolishness” helps one conclude that the meaning of the art is truthfulness.
“Shall we try argument? Sir, we have been trying that for the last ten years...nothing” (Henry 104). His statement made people come to their senses and realize that fighting is the only other option. Therefore, logos influenced them the most because it forced them to see that they are the enemies and fighting back was the best
This would allow the people to be separated not only just in such politics but in many other topics as well, such as religion, making groups of separate belief instead of one whole nation. With the use of logos would allow the author to persuade the audience even further into believing the division of the people is causing an
Coca Cola: Share a Coke and Happiness 1. Introduction: Coca Cola Share a Coke This Summer Has anyone ever told you you can’t buy happiness?
Many works have been written on Stalin’s cult of personality, but none of them seemed to focus on the role of paintings specifically. This topic is thus worthy of investigation as it might shed a new light on Stalin’s cult of personality in terms of the visual arts. It is also worthy of investigation in general because his cult of personality was not an isolated phenomenon, but rather a phenomenon that has existed around many of the world leaders, and continues to exist around some today. Therefore, it is interesting to investigate the relative importance and influence of the visual arts, especially painting, in one of such cults as it may allow for the extrapolation of the conclusion to many others. Following the recommendation of Anita Pisch, Stalin’s image will be divided into three main parts that Pisch in her book The Personality Cult of Stalin in Soviet Posters refers to as archetypes.
The environment is pledging an elitist appeal but the warm colors found in the image attract the populist group. In Jack Solomon’s “Masters of Desire the Culture of American Advertising” he explains a paradox in the American psyche. He argues that Americans simultaneously desire superiority and equality, as a result, advertisers create images that exploit those opposing conditions. He emphasizes that America is a nation of fantasizers. He sums up that advertisers create consumer hunger by working with our subconscious dreams and desires in the marketplace.
Cartesian thinking misses this element of relation by setting up everything

For example, when the speaker uses the analogy, “ If you be... then I be” (1-35), she is indicating the reciprocation process. In Layman’s terms, this simply means that what is done for one is done for the other in return; kind of like saying “if you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours;”or if you do something for me, I'll do the same in return. Reciprocation in a relationship shows that one person isn't doing all the work that is required of all the parties involved, but that all work equally towards the same goal; it's a partnership. Through reciprocation, one gains the idea of contingency that gives a sense of wholeness and completeness –harmony ; meaning that one can't exist without the other, but if they both exist their expectations are fulfilled and they are in sync with one another.
Marx’s theory of commodity fetishism defines the abstraction of a product’s true value with a “magical” presentation of product through advertising and institutional brand name policies. The dominance of the bourgeoisie/capitalist owner classes illustrates the power of commodity fetishism that promotes products to the proletariat/consumer in the marketplace. The fetish qualities of product detract from the physicality of the production process, which is then diluted through advertising promotions for the unwary consumer. This type of promotion is a great problem for consumers, since many of them may tricked into buying a faulty or unhealthy product through brand-name trickery. More so, consumers may become addicted to their desires in the purchasing of a product, which only alienates them from better products that may actually improve their lives.

In the carbonated soft drinks industry, Coke Cola and Pepsi Co are the biggest players in the market for aerated beverages. Both the companies have been competing strongly against each other for decades. The market is dominated by these two industry leaders with a total market share of 72%; Coke’s market share is 42% and Pepsi’s 30%. This is known as an oligopoly market; where there are few large firms competing with each other in the industry. Since both the company’s market share so large, the market is very close to a duopoly (other players having a very small impact on the market).
