The concept of the overall purpose and philosophy of man has been addressed and considered by many philosophers over the course of time; do we act merely for the pursuit of our own happiness, or do we focus on an essential concept of justice and reciprocity?

He does this through ...

Written by Stephen Adly Guirgis, The last days of Judas Iscariot is a play about the trial of Judas Iscariot betrayal to Jesus Christ. The play starts with Henrietta Iscariot (the mother of Judas) who says, “The world tells me that God is in heaven, and my son is in hell.

The scene then changes to the courtroom where Judas is motionlessly sitting in a ...

Americans express different beliefs in the taboo idea of corporal punishment. Varied opinions exist in light of the said topic. Belief in using and even considering the importance of physical punishment as a method of child discipline has been an impending and resilient method throughout the generations of Americans from since the 17th century to the present. Currently, hundreds of years later, at the forefront of the 21st century, the American positivity on the use of physical punishment has been showing significant signs of decline (Gershoff, 11).
Physical punishment as defined by Gershoff is the use of physical ...

Philosophy

Mill’s main argument is that consequences of an action are the sole criterion of its rightness and wrong, but that is not completely correct as other things besides consequences matters as well. Mill argues that consequences of an action are what determine whether the action is morally right or wrong. In his views, the object of all the actions is to increase happiness and reduce pain or unhappiness. If the end result of an action is, increase in happiness then the action is morally right, but if as the result of the action happiness is reduced it is ...

Profiling has become one of the most successful and productive method to solve crimes. Within the recent decades police has been working side by side with psychiatrists and psychologists to create a specific algorithm to profile and catch the offenders that were believed to be “uncatchable".

It is used on a daily basis; however, it is still a new filed of science without many definitions or boundaries. Therefore, it's a common thing for its practitioners to come up with ...

What is terrorism and why is it difficult to define?

There is no applicable definition that can be used to define the term terrorism; it is more of activities that are inhuman and exposes the lives of every human being to great danger.

Introduction to arbitration
International commercial arbitration is a method of solving disputes between international commercial institutions, as a result of disagreements arising between them during business interactions. It is a method that has been very much used in the recent past as a way to solve disputes easily since it does not follow formal agreements stipulated in legislative systems of the involved parties. These legal formalities are usually long, and the parties involved are mostly from different countries, with different legal backgrounds as well as cultural backgrounds, therefore, coming up with solutions normally becomes a very expensive and time consuming. This system of ...

Introduction
The concept or term “gerrymander” is about 200 years old and was coined in 1812 in reference to Massachusetts Governor Elbridge Gerry and the salamander-like district that he helped to create. However, such practice can be traced back even before the term “gerrymander” was created. For the past generations, the federal courts refused to police either gerrymandering or malapportionment based on political question grounds. Grofman defines the concept of gerrymandering to the drawing of electoral district lines so as to assign unequal voting weights to cognizable political groups and has been considered as a noxious political practice. One ...

Chapter 10

Stojkivic et. al. opines that power exists by way of relationships. Ideally, the organizations and individuals who are capable of dealing with the environmental uncertainty and instability possess considerable power. As an individual construct, power exists on people depending on the jobs that an individual does. Individuals who cannot be replaced easily are usually more powerful. For instance, in the criminal justice system, individuals who are most effective and efficient possess power.
As an organizational construct, power resides in the individuals who determine the role that other individuals play in the organization. As such, power resides within organizational ...

Victims of their Time

Hedda Gabler refers to Henrik Ibsen’s play published in the 1890. Hedda is a character in the play who presents a pronounced dramatic role, albeit controversial. She is an uncompromising protagonist. Different scenes depict her as either an archetypical feminist, rebellious against the society, or a victim of circumstances. Ibsen portrays Hedda as a newly wedded wife who is fed up with her marriage and her life. From the play, it is apparent that Hedda did not marry her husband (Tesman) for love but because she believed that her youthful years were over. She is depicted as a wife whose role is to ...

Management

Goss (2005), in Building a Contingency Menu: Using Capabilities-Based Planning for Homeland Defense and Homeland Security, says that Homeland Defense and Security planners need to develop a contingency plan to neutralize potential terrorist threats. Because of their shrewd and adaptive strategies, the Department of Homeland Defense and Security agency has come up with the concepts of ‘lines of operation’ ‘capabilities’ as the dynamics to define and explain potential and likely interactions. Moving from the more rational idea of, ‘who is the threat?’ to ‘what could the threat do?’ has given Homeland Defense and Security planners a broader spectrum of possibilities to explore ...

Introduction

A large percentage of relationships are prone to violence. The evidence of strife in relationships denotes one party desire to maintain control over the other. The other party suffers intimidation and threats that is not subject to control.

Sexual harassment and sexual assault refer to conditions whereby sexual contact is intended through circumstances where force, threats, intimidation or abuse of authority are applied (Anna, 2012). On a wider scale it may include situations such as ...

Introduction

Corporate governance has picked up a much higher profile in the recent two decades. This has been attributed to the rise of different corporate embarrassments and collapses. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is presently becoming a part of standard corporate governance because of the fact that an organization can't – in the long-run – work in seclusion from the more extensive social order in which it works (Mallin, Chris A. 2013). This view is supported by Sir Adrian Cadbury: 'The broadest method for categorizing corporate governance is to say that the proceeded presence of organizations is dependent upon an inferred knowledge between business and ...

America has the potential of reducing further the detrimental Juvenile crimes that are rampant in the US today if the Juvenile Justice will consider the Missouri model.

California records high number of such incidences according to the National Crime Victimization Survey (NCVS). The rising number of crimes includes the Juvenile of Ex-offenders. This is somehow unnecessary since the US Juvenile System provides for ...

Gun control in the United States is one of the most hotly debated issues in the country as of late; given the increase in prominence of school shootings, and the proliferation of gang violence in major metropolitan areas, many people wonder what the potential effects of gun control might be. Some argue that gun control removes a vital Constitutional right to bear arms and increases crime by only allowing criminals to have guns, whereas others believe that gun control itself is an effective deterrent to crime by removing the sheer number of guns off the streets. There is strong evidence on ...

Abstract

For many years, there has been a protracted argument about whether deviance really exists. Some people argue that deviance exists in reality, while others argue that deviance is just a term invented by some people who would like to label others as such. Whether this is true or not is neither here nor there; what we are sure about is that some behaviors can be explained better using the labeling theory. The labeling theory argues that some people become the labels that people give them, and therefore it is good to be careful with the labels that we give to others – ...

Ebonics is an African American English language that was mainly developed to unite blacks as well as communicate. This was amidst resistance from the black community that felt they were being mistreated by the whites. It was during slave trade where most black could not have a language of their own as they were shipped from different parts of Africa. Apart from the need of having a language that they could only understand and minimize on white dominance, it was also a rebellious way of criticizing the American language. As African Americans started growing in large numbers, the mistreatment towards them increased ...

There is plenty of literature on human trafficking. Much of the available literature relates to human trafficking on women and children. According to Laczko and Gramegna (2004) these two groups are the hardest hit by the illegal trade. In order to avoid ambiguity, most studies and books have described human trafficking as coercion or forceful involvement of people into activities against their wish for commercial gain (Laczko & Gramegna, 2004; Farrell, 2011). In spite of numerous efforts to fight the trade, the number of people affected by human trafficking is still high. A study by the Polaris Project estimates that ...

Abstract

Human resources are one of the most basic things that keep any organizations’ operations running. Without laborers, everything would be hardly possible. A poorly planned and executed labor development plan would most likely lead to poor labor practices, which would of course affect basically all human resource or labor dependent operation in the organization. More often than not, poor labor and relation development practices lead to significantly impaired productivity levels, which are some of the last things that any manager would want. Knowing the current best practices in the field of labor and relations development is therefore crucial both ...

Should limits be placed on the legal rights of women to obtain an abortion from a healthcare provider?

YES. North Dakota lawmakers had completed an action to outlaw almost all abortions beginning at conception (Winter 2013). The house that was dominated by republicans also approved the personhood amendment that asks voters to change the state’s constitution to make it recognize and protect the inalienable right of every human being at any stage of development (Winter 2013). Apart from conferring human rights on fertilized eggs and outlawing abortion, the proposition could potentially affect end-of-life for adults (Winter 2013).
In my opinion, limits should be placed on the legal rights of women to obtain from a healthcare provider. ...

variables. The results of the study reveal that the youth offenders “with a previous diagnosis of conduct disorder, a self-reported previous suicide attempt, those who were older, and those who had ...

‘Trifles’ is an interesting play as it reveals the mind-set of the American male towards the woman. He is condescending and in many ways rather savage and blunt in his disdain for womanhood. This is reflected in the attitude of the County Attorney and Hale who seem to be more interested in the fire to warm them or what they are going to eat instead of the poor woman’s plight. Mrs Wright is distraught and concerned due to John’s death whilst hale and the attorney discusses the issues as if nothing has happened and without much care ...

In a society, the weaker group would always demand that special treatment be accorded to them. This approach has always favoured an adoption of affirmative actions for the weaker persons in society. Women, if compared to men have been the weaker sex. History reveals a record of marginalization and mistreatment of women across societies. In fact, jurisdictions like Saudi Arabia in the Middle East are yet to grant women full rights and freedoms. However, this does not mean that women have always been the victims in every situation. Indeed, many situations exist that cast women as the villains in society. This ...

Introduction

It is obvious that our culture today is filled with victim mentality. This is a clear reflection of our society’s reality where it is easier for people to blame others because of their unhappy existence and situations (Morin, 2011). People lack the power to influence changes in their lives due to the perception that their lives element are far out of control. In most cases they tend to ask themselves, ‘why do bad things keep happening to me?’ These are habits that we find in so many people around us and at times we find ourselves in this situation. ...

Domestic violence is one of the leading causes of death amongst women. Women are much more likely than men to be the victim of violence at the hands of their significant others or families, but handling the situation can be very delicate. If law enforcement officials and the legal system as a whole is not careful with the way it handles domestic violence cases, the violence can often escalate, ending in severe injury or death.
In the present paper, the different models for approaching domestic violence cases for individuals in positions of authority are investigated, as well as the ...

JUVENILE DELINQUENCY

Juvenile delinquency is said to be an antisocial behavior exhibited by minors. (Quay, 1987) In the USA, most states would consider a juvenile to be between the ages of ten and eighteen, while a few others consider up to sixteen years of age as the limit. When crimes are committed by persons under these age range, they are commonly tried as a juvenile and not as an adult, which poses much difference from normal court proceedings.
Juvenile tried cases are mediated by judges instead of the usual trial by a jury of the peers. Moreover, unlike an adult case, juveniles ...

During the just concluded presidential elections in America, one of the principal matters in the agenda of either presidential hopeful was the issue of immigration. Debatably, the United States is the country experiencing the highest rates of immigration in the entire world.

As such, the aspect of illegal of immigrants has been described as one of the most serious menaces facing the United States. Typically, immigration is a concept that concerns itself with the movement of ...

The link between Virgil and Limbo is that Limbo is the area of hell which is the home of Virgil. When he and Dante reach this first circle, Virgil tells his companion that his pale complexion is not a sign of terror; instead, it is sympathy for his fellow people, as they all share Limbo as their home. In fact, he has friends in here. In this realm, the sinners also sigh, but not as noisily or excruciatingly as the neutrals. Distressed by these peoples’ troubles, Dante solemnly questions Virgil as to whether anybody is permitted to escape Limbo, providing ...

Dante’s Inferno portrays an interested concept of hell and a design of crime and retribution. Most of the punishments seem harsh in relation to their connected sins and, furthermore, the connections between the crimes and penalties appear tenuous.

As punishment, those overcome by lust are blown about to and fro by a violent storm. Such sinners are thrown and whirled by winds as in life they were helpless in storms of passion (Dante). This punishment is directly relevant to the crime. However, it seems somewhat harsh in view of the actual sin committed. After all, lust does not tend to ...

This paper will analyse three of the literary elements – tone, point of view and symbolism - in Kate Chopin’s The Story of an Hour. Each of these elements will be analysed in turn so that their contribution to the overall meaning of the story can be assessed. These three elements have been chosen because they are crucial to a full understanding of the story and also because, as this paper will demonstrate, at certain points of the story they are closely interlinked: that the tone depends on the point of view, that the symbolism depends on the point of ...
