Differences between efficient and group-level explanations for war

The efficient explanation for war is centered and derived from the constitution as well as from the legal structures within an entity. This means that wars are constitutionally appropriate if the lives of the citizens are threatened by an outside entity. This means that the decision to engage in war is independent on social or other cultural background (Danziger 35). The group-level decision is centered on the idea of dominance. Countries decide to engage in war for reasons that are defined buy cultural and social differences. Countries are therefore in a rush to enter into war with other countries, not ...

Should the death penalty be mandatory for people that kill other people?

The saying goes do unto others what you would have them do unto you. Therefore, the price for taking away life should cost the offender his or her life. Different kinds of punishment have been used to discourage criminals from unlawful actions, and the greater the criminal act the greater should be the punishment. The death penalty is a controversial issue and people base their arguments for or against death penalty on practical, emotional, religious or practical grounds. People in favor of the capital punishment argue that it improves peace in the society by ensuring that such people do not ...

Traditionally, wars were fought over land, wealth, feuds and women. However, this was a time when nations were not capable of triggering global. Industrialization and the development of weapons technology changed this drastically and the two great World Wars are testimonies to the impact that conflict in one part of the world can have on global politics.

In William Blake's "Songs of Innocence and of Experience," Blake attempts to dig into the very nature of existence and perception; part of the primary message of the works is that childhood is an innocent time that should be protected, but it is capable of being corrupted by the structures and rules of the adult world.

Since them, the concept has been reformed to enable the international community through the United Nations to protect citizens within sovereign states from human rights abuse, civil wars, ethnic cleansing and political abuse (Piereson, 2013). Although the United Nations charter does not allow the intervention in sovereign states, various humanitarian crises since ...

By painting detailed portraits of flawed and overly vain characters, he shows the Victorian aristocrat as someone nearly inhuman, and far from sympathetic. In many ways, it transcends the nature of the Victorian mainstream by holding a mirror up to it and pointing out its flaws, whether ...
