Abstract

The legal business environment, including laws and regulations formulated to control the conduct of business activities is one of the most important external factors that affect major commercial decisions by business organizations (Pathak, 2013, p. 96). This legal framework influences decision making by businesses right from registration, workplace safety of employees, decisions on employment or dismissals, product safety, business agreements, to financing and marketing decisions (Campbell, 2009, p. 154).

The lack of a tort of privacy in the UK emphasizes the conceptual fragility of the right to privacy, as well as the importance and inadequacies of the equitable remedies of confidence, various torts associated with the intentional infliction of harm on other people, and administrative law principles governing the proper use of police powers (Bloy & Hadwin, 2007; Webb, Jones, & Walker, 2006). Article 8(1) of the European Convention of Human Rights provides for everyone’s right to respect for their private and family life, their home and correspondence.

International Cooperation and Cyberterrorim

Introduction Terrorism is one of the dominant aspects on today’s international political agenda. Thus, the budget allocated by the United States of America to its anti-terror endeavors grossly exceed annual budgets of some East European and the majority of African and Asian countries. The powerful Western block launches missile strikes over the ISIS controlled territories in the Middle East; it applies unconventional interrogation techniques to the inmates in Guantanamo bay, and regularly issues reports about the destruction of another stronghold of terrorists, or about ‘neutralization’ of one of the chieftains (Podesta & Goyle, 2005). At the same time, there ...

As we know, globalization is characterized as a powerful force, which can transform the world. This force is responsible for the evolution of societies and changes of the whole world. Nowadays the world is characterized by gradual adaptation of states and societies in the unstable interdependent world with its inevitable social and political changes.

The experiment in national government under the Articles of Confederation proved to be a failure. The Articles of Confederation served as the 1st constitution for the country. The Articles of Confederation had crucial flaws such as a weak executive, no control over national taxation and no power over trade. The government had no power to compel people to perform national obligations as they were carried out in individual states (Declaration of Independence, 65). Under the Articles of Confederation, each state still retained its full “sovereignty, freedom and independence” (Political, 33). The Founders saw it wise to call for a constitutional convention ...

Introduction

The West Tankers litigation, especially the decision of European Court of Justice, has raised many questions as to the issue of enforceability of arbitration agreements in EU Member States.

In the following article, I would like to contemplate on the possible consequences of the court`s ruling as to the enforceability ...

In her arguments against women’s right to vote, Professor Woodworth-Ney says that women are naïve and would be easily corrupted by chivalrous politicians. She adds that if women are given freedom to vote and join politics, the human race would die out because they would not give birth and have children. Many have found her views baseless and out of touch with reality. Considering the fact that she is a woman, her views are stupid to say the least. Though both the professors have one view in common, that is, they both want women’s rights, especially the ...

- The exposure of CFCs to strong ultra violet radiation breaks them down. Whenever this occurs, the chlorofluorocarbon molecule produces atomic chlorine.

A constitution is a written document embodying the fundamental states principles. Through the constitution, certain rights of people are guaranteed. It also establishes the conception and character of the United States government by prescribing the government’s duties, powers, and organization. Constitutional amendments are always anticipated.

These echoes the words of Thomas Jefferson of Each generation has the right of choosing for itself the form of government it feels is best suited for ...

At the time, the fledgling nation was built around thirteen jurisdictions both large and small and extremely protective to preserve their own rights and wary of a proposed national, centralized form of government. In addition, the people were aware of the statements of political analysts that political parties were involved only in committing criminal activities. With the people of the new state suspicious of the central government, the Fathers were faced with a problem of how to elect a president independent ...

Their quest for economic emancipation is hijacked by sex traffickers and abusive employers who end up selling them for sex and not paying them for their domestic services.

The complication of the case of women who are trafficked to Hong Kong ...

In either case, this will lead to higher than the actual or lower than the ...
