The three major types or forms of government include the:

Monarchial type of government;
Monarchical governments consist of the rule by a king or queen. In other monarchies, the king is the emperor. Here, the governed are under the laws of the royal families, and there is some dictatorship in some cases. There are little chances given to the commoners to give their views on laws of the land by those in power.

Democratic form of government

In this form, there is a feeling that everyone takes part in the process of moving the government forward. People have a certain freedom, and it is simply a government of the people by the people.

Aristocratic or dictatorship form of government

LITERATURE REVIEW: THE WONGA COUP BY ADAM ROBERTS

Literature Review
Africa, throughout the 20th century, has become a byword for massive poverty, corruption and greed. It is an understatement to say that Africa is a place rife with hunger, given that its rich resources have become central to the interests of various exploitative factors throughout its history. European nations, in particular, have scourged Africa for its material richness, much to the expense of the lives of the people living there. Adam Roberts covers that reality in his book The Wonga Coup, which details a seemingly contemporary repeat of the European exploitation of Africa through the attempts of a mercenary group ...

Literature Review

Terrorism has had a tremendous impact on the manner in which the United States approaches it foreign policy (Woodward 2006). Long before terrorism reached the mainland United States there was a significant pressure to constantly review and update the US foreign policy. In the modern era Clinton encountered the fact that the Cold War had given way to a new form of antagonism (Entman 2004). There was a beginning creation of a framework to deal with the emerging terrorist threat but, with the collapse of the Soviet Union, many of the factions once under their influence were once more free to do as they ...

Is the purpose of the memo clear?

The purpose of the memo is clearly presented in the direct, concise introduction, which states the topic, the purpose, and the overall benefits of the proposal.

Does the memo connect with the audience? Can the audience see how this would be beneficial to everyone involved?

The writer presents examples that would be meaningful to an administrator, i.e. time-saving, cost-cutting, and a general improvement in efficiency. The memo also refers directly to the most recent budget report, in which the president called for cost-cutting measures to keep the university afloat. Furthermore, the writer shows how the implementation would benefit students (by encouraging more to vote), elected officials (by bringing them to office more swiftly), and the environment (by reducing paper ...

The Paris Peace Accords were signed on January 27 1973 between the United States (US) government, South Vietnam then politically known as the Republic of Vietnam, North Vietnam known officially as the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and the PRG or the Provisional Revolutionary Government which represented interests of revolutionary groups residing in South Vietnam. The purpose of the accord was to end the Vietnam War and bring peace to war-ravaged Vietnam. In particular, the accord was aimed to end direct involvement of American military in the war and stop the wars between South and North Vietnam (Griffith, 42). When ...

Even if privacy may be necessary, carrying out closed door researches can be sop risky to many people. For instance, Amanda and Jack became victims in the research activities done by Ricky. Meanwhile, other people and animals were greatly affected by the hazardous autonomous swarms of bacteria and nanobots that spread from the laboratory to the far distant lands. Many of the wild and domestic animals were killed. For instance, a rabbit was suffocated to death by the effects of these swarms. Unfortunately, Julia, a vice president for the Xymos Company also became a victim when she was infested ...

As the United States campaign for the next president rented the air, the issue on Energy Policy was inevitable. The two major candidates on the race to the White House agreed with each other on some of the issues that should or ought to have been done about energy and sharply disagreed on some. It was a tough battle as they stood on podiums and tried to convince the Americans how their laid policies was effective and efficient and tried to outdo one another on the Presidential Debates hosted on the national television.
The two candidates agreed that America ...

The distinctive feature of drama as a genre is that there can be a considerable difference between the experiences of reading the script and viewing it in person. In the cases of some playwrights, such as William Shakespeare, it is the power of the words that have endured; in more modern times, it has become more and more important for the audience to actually see the play performed to receive the full impact of the play. In the case of The Importance of Being Earnest and The C Above High C, it is the latter that has more of a need to ...

Electoral College

The Electoral College is a constitutional electoral institution judged with the responsibility of electing the President and Vice-president. The Electoral College was established in the United State’s Constitution in 1798, when the country was facing political challenges of this time. The Electoral College was established principally because of the possibility of elections in the country degenerating into violence and chaos. The electoral institution was meant to thwart the politically charged environment of the late 18th century. The Electoral College also served to balance between the interests of the government and citizens during an electoral process (Honaker, 2009). Therefore the ...

Shades of Prejudice

Thanks to the New York Times, the elephant in the room has finally been acknowledged. Colorism, the unconscious prejudice, has long thrived since by and large it has gone unspoken. The writer gives light to this issue and explores the extent of its effect in society. Colorism is a form of discrimination through which people receive differing social treatment based on their skin color. It is not only an intra-racial problem, with people of the same ethnic group discriminating against each other, but also an interracial issue.
Skin tone plays a significant role in who gets ahead and who does ...

Abstract

This proposal presents a plan for the study of how inter-ethnic conflicts develop in newly decolonized countries around the world. The preliminary literature review shows that these states have volatile constitutions and the poor or non-existent separation of powers causes the country to marginalize its minority ethnic groups. This leads to failed policies on integration and the homogeneity of the military. The poor and unresponsive intervention of the Executive arm of government in a bad situation causes minorities to pick up arms and seek their right.
This paper proposes that the findings of the preliminary literature review be tested on ...

How the Congress Declares War

Introduction
The constitution of the United States of America vests the power of declaring war over another country in the congress. This means that not even the president is supposed to declare war over another country if the same has not been approved by senate. Well, this is theoretical. There are several occasions where sitting American presidents have violated this protocol and declared war on other countries. From the Bush administration to the Obama administration, presidents have often acted in complete disregard of this requirement. Over the history of the US, congressional influence and activism on foreign policy has ...

Immigration Modernization Act of 2013

Introduction
The Border Security, Economic Opportunity, and Immigration Modernization Act of 2013, technically known as, S.744 is an immigration bill introduced by Senator Charles Schumer and co-sponsored by seven others of ‘Gang of Eight’ in 2013 ("S.744: An Act" 2013). This bill tries to overhaul the century old immigration act by proposing major changes in the areas of border security, immigrant visa, interior enforcement, and reforms to non-immigrant visa programs. Some believe that if this bill is not passed by the Congress, it would result in a stalemate with a problem of broken immigration system already prevailing in the USA. ...

Impact of Gender on Career – Literature Review

Introduction
Gender inequality is a major problem in the workplace. For numerous reasons, women face discrimination at the workplace and they are treated in ways that prevents them from building and growing a meaningful career. This literature review hypothesizes that the prominence of gender inequality in the work environment creates an atmosphere where women cannot advance in their careers and rise to top-level positions where they take decisions.

Although the Nineteenth Amendment was passed almost 100 years ago, there is a general lack of equality in the workplace in America and the main source of this and the topmost ...

The struggle for political power now - it is not a struggle of the party organizations or competition programs of their actions. It is a struggle of images, political images that create the rating, and image-makers, the press secretaries and the "stars" of show business, recruited at a time of political campaigns. The real personality and activity policies are needed only as an "information events", that is, serve as a kind of alibi for those who form the image. Replacing the actual political positions and actions, they ensure the success of the candidates, whose image, not a program or action, visualize and embody the ...

Introduction

The Unites States of America has one of the most multicultural societies in the world. The nation is home to people from all races. In recent decades, the nation has become very democratic and racially tolerant. However, this has not always been the case. The United States has historically had a tendency of suppressing racially unique groups through racially motivated policies. The first example of this was the loss of liberty and land of the Native Americans to white settlers. The other action that comes to mind is the Jim Crow laws that enforced segregation between blacks and whites. There ...

LITERATURE REVIEW

Although the concept of corporate governance has been in practice for several decades, it gained worldwide popularity and significance since the collapse of a number of corporate giants and bank chains in the United States in the early 2000s. The idea of corporate governance is the major factor that links stakeholder interests with the objectives of the organization. As Solms and Solms point out, corporate governance could be defined as “the set of processes, customs, policies, laws, and institutions affecting the way a corporation (or company) is directed, administered or controlled” (Solms & Solms, 2008, p.2). In the current business context, shareholders, ...

Introduction

Contemporary studies view parties as alliances of politicians whose ultimate objective is to win electoral office. Parties make promises on behalf of their candidates about what they will do if elected, and help improve chances of reelection for incumbents through their records of implementing their programs (Bawn et al. 571). It is plain to see how these parties might serve democracy. Citizens can give more effective direction to government by voting for a party instead of an individual. They create an incentive for responsible governance by holding an entire party rather than a single politician accountable for government actions (Bawn et ...

The quality of financial reporting by various companies affects the economy of the country in more ways than one. Apart from the economy of the country, the quality of audit and financial reporting affects the operation of the company as well.

Question 1:

The civil rights era was an era that goes down in America’s history as the stepping stone for equality. It was characterized by events that were and are still celebrated as US’ most important stepping stones to full democracy. One of Martin Luther King’s most famous speeches, I Have a Dream, he gives some of the hopes that he desires to see. He describes his desire to see black people, referred to as “sons of former slaves”, living in harmony with the whites referred to as “the sons former slave owners” (James, 2004).

Introduction

It seems difficult to analyze democratic transition from the standpoint of international dimension both theoretically and practically because not so much literatures that discuss about what the external environment actually is and how it might contribute to domestic change (Cavatorta 2005). However, it does not mean that international context will be ignored in the analysis process because international factors might have impacts on the transition process through their connections with domestic actors particularly in terms of distribution of power and resources, which in turn have effect on how they will act (Cavatorta 2005). One thing to remember is a ...

Abstract

Contemporary business environment demands from organizations more flexibility and higher responsiveness to the external pressures. Management capabilities cannot address these challenges. In the crisis situations, when there is a need to make fast and difficult decisions in difficult situations, companies have to rely on effective leadership to drive organizational development. The history illustrates various examples of the organizations, which are over managed and under led and it is a challenge and the task of the modern corporations to develop an internal framework for development of the leadership capabilities, which can take the organization to success through crisis.

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 ...

A lot of global attention has recently been directed towards the ongoing conflict in South Sudan. Less than five years after seceding from the Sudan, the newly formed country has been embroiled in a tribal conflict that has quickly escalated into a civil war. At the very heart of the conflict is a fight over resources between the two major tribes, Nuer and Dinka, which make up the dominant tribes in the country. The onset of the civil war was a political power struggle between President Kiir and his former deputy Riek Machar (Civil War in South Sudan, 2016). ...

Abstract

In most parts of the Arab countries, the limited resources of water pose adverse constraints to both the social and economic development, while also threatening the people’s livelihood. The available surface water keeps on declining, and the ground water over-pumping that goes beyond the natural recharge rates has continued to cause great negative impact in the lowering of water table. Over-pumping of ground water also increases ground water salinity, ground water depletion, and ecological degradation (SCENR 5). The outcome prompted the Qatar government to start regulating its water resources as a measure ...

Literature Review covering Media and Politics

Introduction
Media and politics come hand in hand because they combine to convey information to the public. Media is defined as the channel in which information is stored and transmitted to the population. The media has been given different names such as mass media or the news media. The media has many advantages and disadvantages that could end up ruining the country and corrupting the youth.

Women demonstrators are targets of rape and other forms of sexual harassment during demonstrations as happened during the Arab uprising. Women demonstrators who opt to join counteraction groups sometimes face harassments not only from their oppressors but also from fellow male members of their ...

Shakespeare’s Protests against Institutional Racism in Elizabethan England

Othello is not the only play in the Shakespearean canon that features racism, and it certainly is not the only play that challenges social mores. Whether it’s the feisty Beatrice, in Much Ado About Nothing, turning social convention on its head, in the sense that women were supposed to be prim and proper in Elizabethan England, when she wows Benedick with her powerful desire to save Hero, or whether it’s the Jew Shylock in The Merchant of Venice, endowed with many of the physical characteristics associated with the worst stereotypes associated with members of his religion but ...

Rising rates of recidivism in the United States have developed concerns pertaining to the effectiveness of prisons as correctional facilities. In this study, the focus is to assess the suitability of faith-based correctional methods in promoting inmates reentry into the society. Some discussed methods include Inner change programs, prison chaplaincy, and meditational strategies. Several studies have indicated significant declines in recidivism rates among inmates who participated in these initiates. For example, Duwe & Johnson (2013) found that inmates who engaged in Inner change programs in Minnesota were less likely to be arrested by at least 8% compared to their counterparts ...

Attention is a concept commonly studied by scholars in the field of cognitive psychology as they primarily interest in how humans process information within a particular environment(Goldstein, 2014). This relates to our attentional system because this is our ability to be able to focus in on something despite the stimuli that may be around us(Beard, Sawyer, & Hofmann, 2012; Cohen, 2014). Attention is an aspect of humans that is present from birth, and it is considered to a reflex that provides us the ability to know what should or shouldn't be of importance (in terms of alterntess) and ...

Quality and Safety Practice: Prevention of Patient Falls - Literature Review

Introduction
Whether an elderly person is living alone, with others, within a nursing home, or under care in a medical facility, falling is a major threat. For seniors older than 65 years of age living in a community situation, one in three will suffer a fall every year; for individuals over 85 years of age, the rate climbs to half of all residents (Cameron et al., 2010; CBO, 2004; Neyens, 2007; Tinetti, 2003). If an elderly adult is institutionalized, the possibility of falling in a year rises to 1.5 to 2 times (Dijcks et al., 2005) and a serious ...

Over the years there has been unending debate of whether the state should use federal funding to support the field of stem cell research or whether stem cell research should be allowed at all.

Those supporting the research and even those corporations funding it have proposed their support throwing weight on the fact that unused frozen ...

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. ...

One of the reasons why William Shakespeare’s tragic play Hamlet remains such a popular work of literature, both for dramatic representation in its original form as well as for adaptation into more modern contexts, is that the themes and events in the play reflect truths about humanity than remain accurate in modern times. There are still taboo relationships that should not take place, at least according to the majority opinion among humanity; there are still times when it is difficult to know just when to take drastic action; and try as we may, it is still impossible to separate ...

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.
