Lecture 1 - Production Model

What is Production? Based on the sixth edition of Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary, Production means 1. the process of growing or aking food, goods, or materials especially in large quantities; 2. the quantitiy of goods that is produced; 3. the act or process of making something naturally; 4. a film/movie, a play or a broadcast that is prepared for the public; the act of preparing a film or a play. The best definition for production in this lecture would be the act or process of making something naturally.

Production Model comprises six fundamental elements, namely the intention, act, product, actor, rule and the site. All six elements are interdependent on one another. We human beings as the actor has the intention to create a product on a certain site. One must therefore act following the rules and regulation to accomplish his/her goal ( product). For example, in the construction industry, a client/developer(actor) develop an intention to build a building(product). Such an intention would requires the client to determine a suitable site for construction. The labours (actor) will follow the rules or orders from their supervisor and then complete the building(product)

Rule is an ideology or and understanding of a specific matters.
Altruism- there is no right or wrong.

Cynism- everything is wrong (They believed that the world belonged equally to everyone, and that suffering was caused by false judgments of what was valuable and by the worthless customs and conventions which surrounded society.)

Relativism- everything is right.

Truth-seekerism - we shall and we must seek the truth.

Taoism- emptiness, detachment, receptiveness, spontaneity, the strength of softness, the relativism of human values, and the search for a long life.

Question: what is the ism for " there is right and wrong"?

My -ism is absolutism
Absolutism – the position that in a particular domain of thought, all statements in that domain are either absolutely true or absolutely false: none is true for some cultures or eras while false for other cultures or eras. These statements are called absolute truths.

That concludes the post for today. =)
