Historically, economic inequality strengthened disparities of income and living standards of the individual layers of the population, increased the ...

I. INTRODUCTION The cultural dimension of Christian experience, which Niebuhr attempted to typify, is essentially more complex that he himself appeared to recognize. In fact, in order to deal with this complexity, Niebuhr categorized Christianity as inextricably of a Western culture to the clear disregard of the realities of Christians in the East, which the apostles too have built into a community of the faithful under Christ. Nevertheless, he dealt with the complexity by presuming that Christianity is essentially a Western cultural community while referring to the target culture as “not a particular phenomenon but the general one”.

There have been concerns regarding police conduct for years. Therefore, the managerial departments have been working hard to educate the cops about ethics.

The organization will, therefore, have a hard time curbing this kind of lawsuits. The media will also bring down an agency particularly if a police office has violated one's civil rights (Barry, 1999). The public will watch the news and lose their confidence in the organization.
