The Autumn Statement is a traditional statement made by the government that serves as a financial report. It is the second made every year, with the first being the Spring Budget. It is given by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who provides MPs with information about the United Kingdom’s taxation and spending (BBC, 2016).

Lord Falconer’s argument is a response to accusations about his being misogynistic, built on the premise that his opposition to the appointment of Liz Truss as lord chancellor is about her qualifications. He dismisses accusations that Chris Grayling and Michael Gove were not attacked at their appointments by indicating that Grayling’s subsequent behaviour and actions testifies to the fact that he was not qualified to defend the law, should not have been appointed based on the Constitutional Reform Act of 2005, which states in section 2 that persons in consideration for appointment to that office must appear ...

The theme of a ‘utopia’ – a place which is normally defined as the ideal state or place to live, is something which has captured the minds of writers and philosophers for centuries. The word ‘utopia’ itself is something of a word-play – in Greek, the word as sounded could mean either ευ-τοπος (good-place) or ου-τοπος (no-place), and the debate over which interpretation is correct is something which has lasted for almost as long as the concept of utopia itself! Plato’s Republic is a book which delineates in fine detail the republic that Plato has envisaged for his countrymen, detailing ...

Theresa May might be the latest entrant in the pool of high-positioned women, but it does not subside the ongoing debate revolving women style of leadership and negotiation. The conflict management style of May might be the subject of discussion among management honchos in the future. Researchers proffer differing perceptions concerning this issue; while some accede that women have different negotiation styles than men, some authors counter this by saying that gender has a little role to play in conflict handling. Furthermore, savants are not unanimous on the efficacy of women's style of conflict management. This paper has referred ...

In the 4th Century BC, Aristotle clearly stated that for a government to have an effective constitution, it must have in place three basic elements. These are a public assembly, various officers of the state and lastly a judicial department. One of the most famous quotes of John Adams is ‘power must never be trusted without a check’. This may be said to mean that in instances that an individual or an institution which is tasked with the authority to rule over a people should never be given the absolute authority to have the absolute authority. Institutions checking on ...

Teenage boys may feel that girls are aliens, because they seem different, but in Neil Gaiman’s short Sci-Fi story, “How to talk to girls at parties”, the girls really are from another planet. The author humorously recounts the experience of two teenage boys, Vic and Enn, whose lack of experience around girls and nascent sexuality, cause them to ignore the visible signs that the girls they meet at a party are not from this world. Throughout the story, Enn, from whose perspective the story is told, is so focused on trying to talk to the girls he meets ...

The Great War was the bloodiest war in world history up to that point. Many historians claim that the buildup to the war was caused my militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism (MAIN). This might be the composite indicator, but special importance should be placed on the Dual-Alliance between Austria-Hungary and the German Empire. The two came together for a myriad of reasons, most importantly a shared fear of Russian aggression, and remained together for over thirty years. Thus, an entire generation grew up recognizing that the two Germanic empires were closely allied, and the knowledge pervaded the culture of ...

For this comparative research, we selected Spain and Germany, two countries of the European Union with similar political parliamentarian systems. Personification is a distinctive feature of presidentialism and it seems reasonable to examine to what extent this trend occurs in European parliamentary systems today.

The position of political leaders in parliamentary systems is different from the position occupied by them in the presidential republics. Lijphart identifies three characteristics that distinguish essentially presidentialism and parliamentarianism (Lijphart, 2000). Firstly, in a presidential system the executive chief is elected directly by the electors by popular vote and therefore without legislative intervention, so ...

In our daily encounters, we have realized that revolts against the authority are here to stay. Revolting occurs due to uncertainties or even incites from iconic figures in a multitude. There is a need for people to evaluate their reasons for revolt before making the decision to protest. Mikhail Bakunin contends, “To revolt is a natural tendency of life. Even a worm turns against the foot that crushes it. In general, the vitality and relative dignity of an animal can be measured by the intensity of its instinct to revolt” (Vincent 247). The public has conflicted with the temples ...

Sima Guang helped improve historiography in ancient China; the concepts that he espoused in co-authoring the Zizhi Tongjian have formed the basis for recording historical events and the same concepts have continued to be in use, even for the modern day historian (Buckley, 45).
