1. In law a fiduciary individual is someone who is
entrusted with the power to act on behalf of and
for the benefit of another.
2. Following the weight of corporate law and legal
precedent, the director primacy model positions
directors as autonomous fiduciaries, not agents.
3. The term fiduciary derives from the Latin fiducia,
or trust, and the fiduciary is expected to act in
good faith and honesty for the beneficiary's
interests.
4. A person who accepts the role of fiduciary in
law must single-mindedly pursue the interests
of his or her beneficiary, in this case the
corporation, even when the latter cannot monitor
or control the fiduciary's behaviour.
P: The human body is but the tomb of the soul and
the visible world of matter is appearance that must be
overcome if we are to know reality. The former is an integral
part of "being", that which can neither come into existence
nor cease to exist for it always is. Being is unmoved and
undisturbed. Motion and disturbance belong to the realm
of "becoming", the changing world of unreality rather than
of "being" in which true reality resides. Further, motion &
change by belonging to the realm of "becoming" by having
no separate existence of their own are logically inconsistent
with reality and hence. unworthy of serious study.
H: All things are in a state of perpetual flux.
Permanence, and by extension, the concept of "being" is
only an illusion. This change and continual transformation,
through an often disorderly process of conflict and survival
of the fittest, is the underlying principle at work in the
universe. It is from this principle that all things come into
existence, and forms the basis for the morals and
governance patterns that attempt to preserve the social thread of societies. By extension, the study of human
activity through the lens of an idealized state of "being"
and as a basis for formulating moral codes of conduct is
inappropriate at best.
Which of the following statements could be
considered as logically consistent with the views
of Paradox(P) in the above paragraphs?
i. A fly travelling on a flying arrow perceives it to
be at rest. Therefore the flying arrow belongs to
the realm of being.
ii. The activities of day to day life are concerned
with the unreal part of human existence and
hence, should not be subject to moral
standards.
iii. Maintaining a balance among the various
constituents of society is essential to the wellbeing
and the continuing existence of the soul.
iv. Conflicts and the coming of spontaneous order
do not have any underlying causes that are
relevant for study as the notion of perpetual flux
itself is erroneous.
v. The real is and cannot be non-existent. Further,
reality is one and unique.
A. i only B. ii and iv C. iv and v D. i, ii and iii E. i, iv and v
