Essays on Deliberation

Introduction

The situation is getting out of control at Good Health Hospital (Tampa Bay) since the outbreak of Escherichia coli, a specie of bacteria that can be found in many daily items. The incident involved Ward 10, which is located in the second floor. A recommendation from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) stated that the investigation of the bacterial source must begin with the hospital kitchen as the bacterium can be transmitted through contaminated vegetables and delicatessen meats (e.g. salami and other cold cuts). The Epidemiological Summary provides a brief description of the data obtained. Environmental review ...

When stating that Democracy demand deliberative judgment, Barber is simply stating that to achieve democracy, judgment needs to be made after long and careful thinking over the alternatives and evaluative judgment. Without the long consideration process, the citizens might not have the information and the grounds to make effective judgment or find a common ground. In my opinion, the deliberative judgment is the essence of making decisions, especially when they are important. The process of deliberation before making a judgment can shape the society and make people more aware about the realities of things around them. Important issues and ...

Effective change management involves the integration of the common strategies in an organization to create a model that is universal for managing the changes. The concept of changes in an organization has no clear procedures and processes in the organizational strategies. Inefficient management of change affects the performance in an organization by altering the productivity of the workers either positively or negatively. This paper explores this issue by discussing organizational communication, participation and involvement of employees in change management and gauging the effectiveness of each of these strategies.

Communication Efficiency

Introduction

The degree that digital terrorism is a threat to people’s safety is amongst the most challenging of themes in the twenty first century. To a limited extent, this is a result of terminological question . More far reaching originations of digital terrorism as any type of online terrorist action obviously have a tendency to be connected with a higher evaluated likelihood of the risk's emergence than accomplish more prohibitive records (Cassim, 2012). In the meantime, as itemized further underneath, contending risk evaluations stay regardless of the fact that we limit our centre to smaller understandings of this idea (portrayed, ...

Steps in Criminal Jury Trial

Upon being charged with a crime, the defendant is provided with some documents including an appearance notice and promise to appear in court, summons, the information, etc. This states the charges, the offense, and then date, time and place of the opening court appearance (Walston-Dunham, 2011). In this instance, the case now proceeds to the trial phase. For a case to be complete, it has to follow through six main steps i.e. selecting a jury, opening statements, evidence presentation and cross-examination, the final remarks, jury instructions, and finally the jury verdict. Selecting the jury - The first step begins ...

The Meaning of Freedom and Happiness For centuries, philosophers and thinkers have pondered over the concepts of freedom, liberty, the “perfect” society and the pursuit of happiness. The notion of freedom is as old as time itself- with the earliest definitions put forward by ancient Greeks and Romans. However, it was not until the 16th Century that a modern Social Contract Theory was put forward that reshaped our understanding of how societies work. Two of the most profound ideals put forward were those by Thomas Hobbes and Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Hobbes lived during the English Civil ...

Ruva, C., McEvoy, C. & Becker Bryant, J. (2007). Effects of Pre-Trial Publicity and Jury Deliberation on Juror Bias and Source Memory Errors Applied Cognitive Psychology 21, 45-67. Is the decision of the jury as objective as it should be? In their article, titled “Effects of Pre-Trial Publicity and Jury Deliberation on Juror Bias and Source Memory Errors”, authors Ruva, Mc Evoy & Bryant, discuss the issue of jury impartiality by analyzing the degree to which the access to media information affect the decisions of the jury member and cause them to interpret the evidence either in favor or against the ...

In the essay, Alasdair MacIntyre (129-130) describes virtues, such as independent rational thinking and freedom of expression, which leads to deliberation and common mind, acknowledgement of dependency of the members of community on each other, and the virtue of just generosity, according to which, community should help the needy and dependent members. MacIntyre (131) argues that the modern nation-state and family cannot provide conditions, necessary to practice these virtues. Size of the modern nation-state is enormous and prevents the creation of shared decision-making and common mind through rational deliberation of all the members of the society. Instead, political processes ...

I have rarely heard of unethical conduct by a juror, but I found a recent article on ctpost dated May 25, 2016, entitled “Juror dismissed after taking court exhibit” by Daniel Tepfer. In Bridgeport, Louisiana, a jury had convicted Amelia Rhodes of “possession of a weapon in a motor vehicle, reckless driving and using a motor vehicle without the owner’s permission”. The jury was set to determine the defendant’s guilt on another charge a couple days later. However, prior to determining the guilt or innocence of the defendant, the jury foreman was dismissed from the jury after ...

Introduction

There are a couple of important fundamental differences between a criminal action and a civil action. One of the most apparent differences is the nature of the cause of action underlying the suit. As its name denotes, a criminal action is derived from a past crime that has been committed. A civil action, on the other hand, does not involve a crime, but rather a private wrong to an individual or a group of individuals. Another fundamental distinction between a criminal and civil action is that the parties go to the court. In a criminal action, the prosecution represents ...

Literature Review

Animal Rights: Literature Review Taking a moral stance for animal rights means the support of natural rights given to animals. The ethical, or moral obligation, of those fighting for animal rights from the ethical perspective come from the view that it is “morally right to keep other beings, among which animals, from suffering,” (Doomen, 2015, p. 514). And yet, reason alone as the decisive factor, would mean that “moral appeals may simply be dismissed, as no means to enforce such appeals are available lest those appeals not be moral it is in the nature of such appeals that one ...

Even though the building of cities has a long and a correspondingly complex history, the concept of city planning as an organized profession has only been around for less than a century (Garvin). Practiced under several names (town, community, urban land use, or physical environment planning), most cities in the current modernistic concept of planning display considerable degrees of forethought and conscious design not only in their physical layout but also in their functioning. Today, the building of cities is done for several reasons that bear in mind the diversity potential of urban forms and the complex functions that ...

My personal leadership can be formulated as follows: “An inventor of the new game-changing approach to organization and community leadership”. To my mind, one of the most important cornerstones of leadership is an ability to innovate and change the approaches to problem-solving at different levels. Innovation is crucial for all the modern organizations, as well as communities (especially, with regard to the development of local response to global issues, such as environment protection and climate change). Therefore, I aim to reconsider existing approaches to both organizational and community leadership in order to improve problem-orientation and approach global issues from ...

Harvard 8 pages 20 references 1.0 Ideologies: Old and worn out or fresh and necessary in politics today 1.1 Introduction All ideologies “embody an account of social and political reality and an account of how that reality could be bettered” (Finlay et al.2003:2). In other words ideologies are based in political and social reality but at the same time they are linked to a dream of a better world.

1.0 Introduction The work of Fishkin (2009) defines deliberate democracy as a school of thought in political theory that emphasizes on the fact that citizens should apply reasonable discussion and debate to reach an ultimate judgement. People exchange arguments and agree on analytical procedures and appropriate action plans that lead to the public good. Fishkin (2009) argues that deliberation is a necessary ingredient in the deliberate democracy. The paper will provide historical view and theoretical foundation of the practice and application of civic participation. The study will also describe how an individual can express the right of public involvement ...

Abstract

Cigarette smoking is one of the main risk factors for disability, disease, and death that can be prevented according to World Health Organization (Johnson et. al., 2000). The number of people that smoke has been rapidly increasing. The habit tends to start when individuals are at their teenage years or early adulthood and they become addicted and carry it on to adulthood. Some of the common reasons why young people begin smoking are to fit in to the crowd, for the rush they get and to experiment. Many people try out smoking but don’t end up becoming smokers. ...

I am currently opposed to XYZ’s project of building a Missile Defense System because it is personally unethical, but this threatens my future career and life. Therefore, to address this ethical dilemma, it is important to participate in the project by following the utilitarian approach and employing the stakeholder process of ethical deliberation in making this essential decision. According to the Utilitarian approach to ethical decision making, the best actions and decisions, ones considered ethical, are those that produce more good and the least distress and pain (Samson & Daft, 2012).The actions of an ...

Part one: The West Georgia Community Mobilization Initiative (W-GCMI).

The West Georgia Community Mobilization Initiative (W-GCMI) was a project funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in West Georgia between 2000 and 2004. The project was scheduled to run for four years under full implementation by CARE International. The W-GCMI project targeted vulnerable communities. It aimed at mobilizing the communities through their leaders towards various projects that improved their lives. CARE provided various grants through community based organizations as a way of enhancing community mobilization. Through this initiative, the communities were empowered to manage finances and develop mechanisms to end suffering. While ...

Democratic deliberation is a political strategy that seeks to improve collective decision-making. The strategy emphasizes the capacity, opportunity, and right of individuals who are subject to collective decision-making to participate by either themselves or their representatives in the production of consequential deliberation regarding their decision (Cash Course, 2013). On the other hand, citizen engagement incorporates a collection of democratic actions that include deliberative democracy, collaborative governance, participatory democracy, public involvement, and public participation. Therefore, a citizen’s engagement in deliberative democracy is paramount, since it attracts participation in decision-making to the ambit of activities in one’s country, and ...

It is in my most humble opinion that a mystical experience can be described as any encounter, association or practical experience with some sort of essential or greater power, truth or realm. It can be said that this area of greater truth is outside of the realm of ordinary and/or typical consciousness of oneself. It is to my understanding that a mystical experience can be acquired mainly through deep meditation in direct relation to an individual’s own spiritual discipline. However that is not to say that one whom is not necessarily spiritual or secular, cannot acquire an experience ...

Introduction

Organizations that undertake public interest advocacy seek to promote the common good to a greater degree than other advocacy and lobbying organizations. Public interest advocacy organizations address issues that typically involve social welfare, peace, civil rights, the environment, and other economic issues like taxation. Public interest advocacy organizations consist only of less than five percent of the total amount of interest groups worldwide. Activities of these organizations consist of advocacy and lobbying such as speaking at congressional hearings, proposing regulatory comments, public rallying, letter writing and media advertising. Public interest advocacy groups are reflective of a deliberative democracy as ...

ANSWER: Given the condition in which Mary was in, it is important that she addresses the situation as impartial as she can be. In this particular case, she should therefore forget that she is the mother of one of the students in the place of employment of one of their patients in the hospital who was having psychological health issues. ...

Chapter 2: Literature Review

Introduction Poor student development has been established to stem from the inability of teachers to effectively manage classroom behaviour, also stemming from ineffective instructional strategies. As teachers show a diminished capacity to support and respond to students’ needs, student rates of misbehaviour and poor academic performance will continue. The unproductive, unengaged environment of classrooms run by teachers without adequate classroom management skills results in a need to examine the efficacy of classroom management as a practice in addressing these problems. The following literature review examines the existing literature related to classroom management, providing a definition of classroom management, determining its effectiveness, and ...

Are there possible criminal aspects of HIV/AIDS? Consider the case law presented in your textbook and elsewhere, and explain. Please provide specific examples.

The intentional spread of HIV is considered a criminal act. Pozgar (2012, p. 362) describes the case of an inmate who knew that he was infected with both HIV and the hepatitis virus. He was also informed of the ways that he can transmit the infection to others. He bit two correctional officers knowing that he can possibly infect them in this way. He was consequently charged with assault and battery. In State of Louisiana v. Schmidt, ...

The ethical issue which this paper wants to address is the normative set up in the patient doctor relationship. This is a highly paternalistic model. In this set up, doctors are the experts in medicine. Most patients have only scant and dependable medical knowledge. Hence, the overall trust in one’s medical practitioner is focal to the medical process and doctors carry the main responsibility for the patient’s wellness. The sole duty to decide on every crucial medical evaluations and decisions relies on them.

The patient-doctor patient relations must be a two-way street between the patient and the doctor because ...

Introduction

When it comes to sensitive issues that constantly divides the public even at the present, the topic regarding the death penalty would often spring to mind. This form of punishment was originally meant for those who have committed the highest form of treason known to man, but now became a socio-political issue that now raises the ire of many due to its somewhat “barbaric” notions. Opponents to the use of the death penalty indicate that it is a violation to moral and social stands, violating a man’s right to life. Supporters, on the other hand, highlight that its presence helps reduce ...

The film 12 Angry Men, which was released in 1957 by Orion-Nova Production, takes a peek into a jury deliberation process of a murder case that involves an 18-year old boy who is charged with the stabbing of his father. The film begins with the end of the 6-day hearing of the case with the judge instructing an all-men jury just before they exit the court and enter into the deliberation room. The instructions of the judge include the following: the jury must make a unanimous vote of guilty, otherwise, a guilty verdict will not stand; a guilty ...

Advertising makes products known to consumers and the only way to ensure that an advert reaches the right audience is assessing the needs of a market before coming up with products that would satisfy those needs. This involves a number of advertising strategies that need to be taken into close consideration. In most occasions, corporations choose to advertise their products with the view of informing their targets markets of the importance and the advantage these products have over others that may satisfy the same needs. However, such corporations do not give much weight to the fundamentals of advertisements which include clarity, ...

Aristotle’s notion of happiness is quite different from our understanding of happiness. He called happiness an “activity” while the contemporary interpretation of happiness is a placid state of human mind. Thus, happiness now is seen as an emotional state rather than the result of certain action. Greek word eudaimonia can be rendered as “success”. People who are successful according to this notion are not in a particular state, but they live successfully. Aristotle considered happiness as an ongoing state caused by actions, rather than temporary euphoria. He stated that virtuous people can be happy when they exercise their virtues. A ...

Issues of civil relationships have recently been much in the media or news. This is as a result of the increasing tragic events which made people to urgently question the relation of the disparate grouping in a larger society to each other so that the society can function and interact as one. For the purpose of achieving this unity, integration into ordinary life and assimilation are some of the suggested factors. Identifying some core shared values that form the basis of oneness can also work to achieve unity in the society. This attitude, virtues, and values should be identified as the ...

Aristotle’s Ethics

Happiness Aristotle in one of his most influential work, the Nicomachean Ethics, presented a theory of happiness 2300 years ago. In this theory they tried to answer a key question, which is, what was the ultimate purpose of human existence? What should be the end goal towards which we should be directing our energies? In his opinion, everyone is looking for “pleasure, wealth, and a good reputation”. In his opinion, while each of these has some value, neither of them can replace the relevance of chief good for which humanity should aim. The chief good or the ultimate aim should be ...

Philosophy

Happiness is a state of positive mind reflecting hope, peacefulness, as well as pleasantness about one self and the immediate environment. Happiness is more internal and is not impacted by any kind of material possession or financial well-being. May be, in certain cases, financial well-being and material possessions could possibly help achieving happiness, but the same may not be the true source of happiness. Happiness is essentially the frame of mind characterized by contentment and even intense joy. Many religious and philosophical approaches have defined happiness variedly and try to pinpoint its source. Happiness is relative and can be attained ...

The play Twelve Angry Men is a prime example of communication in a group. Each of the characters of this twelve member jury represents a specific functional role within the group. These are twelve strangers, brought together for a week long murder trial. The entire play takes place in the deliberation room on a hot afternoon. Tempers are short as is patience for many of the jurors. This creates an agitation in the communication of the group as they deliberate the fate of the defendant.

Foreman, acts as the “procedure developer” and “evaluator” of the jury according to our text.

He is fair and takes the responsibility of deciding guilt seriously. He handles the task of taking the votes ...

Decision-making is a vital process to any patient. Typically, there are competent and incompetent patients who make and take ready-made medical decisions respectively. However, is it necessary to make decisions for the incompetent, and if so, why? What are the rights given to competent patients in making medical decisions and why is it important for patients to make decisions for themselves? The complexity of the problem of decision making for incompetent patients is best evident, for example in patients who are under age and their parents need to make an informed decision concerning their health.. Certainly, it is pertinent to ...

The concept of net neutrality states that governments and internet service providers should treat data on the internet with no discrimination. Data should be treated equally despite the user, content, site, application, attached equipment and mode of communication. Critics argue that data discrimination of some type is not problematic but rather highly desirable. Opponents of net neutrality are of the opinion that the best solution to discrimination done by broadband providers is encouraging a larger competition among providers that is limited in many areas. The Federal Communications Commission is making new rules that will permit internet service providers to give ...

Intuition in Problem Solving

Intuition is the ability to understand something with ease without the need for reasoning consciously. It is also the acquisition of knowledge without interference and often conceived as a kind of inner perception regarded as a real lucidity. Intuition encompasses the ability of knowing valid solutions to problems and decision-making. For instance, the recognition-primed decision model explains how people make fast decisions without comparing options. Research shows how under time pressure, high stakes and change parameters, experts used their base of experience; identifying similar situations and easily choosing feasible solutions. Therefore, the model is a blend of intuition analysis also known as ...

In this particular context of developing a blue print in creation of a long term plan, the City manager’s office must appreciate their essential role in nurturing civic engagement, promotion of democratic governance and developing connections with the residents of the city. Some of the ways in which this role gets fulfillment is in making choices about the city’s economic services during the tough economic times. Once such choices get established, they should come up with strategic priorities through neighborhood and by extension wide city planning sessions. Also, they should be able to discuss challenging issues that the community ...

Method of obtaining approval(s) and securing support

Any new project or proposed plan requires a careful implementation plan in the light of specific risks and requirements which may emerge during this phase. While the program may be viable from a planning and designing point of view, the implementation process is characterized by putting up of structures and resources to see to it the workability of the proposed plan or solution. Thus, as a designer is critical that you engage with the leadership within the organization as well as fellow staff so as to minimize the chances of resistance to the proposed solution. Resistance is always inevitable. However, careful consideration ...

Low Participation in e-Forum among International Students has become a hard nut to crack to the administrators and stakeholders in higher education. With the advancement in technology, education has been pushed to another level. Both private and public institutions continue to enroll students from across the universe.

One justification is that, international student’s finds language barrier a setback to their participation in the online discussions because most institutions lacks program to increase their mastery of language to boost their fluency.

Book Review of “The Jury: Trial and Error in the American Courtroom”

The book of Adler reveals that the American jury system is essential element of the criminal justice system, but criticized the incompetency of some members of the jury. In fact, there are many instances when the jurors have clearly performed unsatisfactorily in arriving at important decisions which lack valid reasons. In most cases, the jury makes a decision for its own beneficial gain. Adler condemns the jurors for making tainted decisions, but he does not make criticisms directly on the actual performance of the jury, but considered some external factors that are beyond the control of the jurors, which do ...

The Second Amendment holds that, the right of an American citizen to have and keep arms were respected at all times. As a result of that statute, research indicates that over 40% of the American homesteads ...

Death penalty Methods & the Eighth Amendment: An Introduction The American Congress or any state legislature may lay down the death penalty for a convict, as a result of murder and other heinous offenses. The US Supreme Court noted that the capital punishment is not a breach of the US Eighth Amendment; however, it outlined some practical features concerning when a judge might apply the capital penalty and how it must be performed. Due to the Fourteenth Amendment's Clause, the Eighth Amendment is pertinent against the US states, and the federal government. Eighth ...

Introduction

The United States Supreme Court, in the course of its interpreting the tenets of the Constitution, has commonly regarded the 12 man jury panel as critical to the satisfaction of the right to a jury trial by an accused in court, as ruled in Thompson v Utah (1898). However, the High Court has backtracked from this position in recent times, with Justice Byron White enumerating the reasons in the decision of the Court in Williams v Florida (1970). In the decision in Williams, the Court gave several reasons as their justification from retracting from the decision in Thompson. Among ...

Civic engagement in the public information tax bill 1041 in Colorado

Abstract This paper considers civic engagement issues in the public information tax bill 1041 proposed by senator Kefalas and his colleagues in Colorado.

It requires community engagement in discussions of relevant issues and policy proposals so as to ensure the public opinions, ideas and decisions need be factored into account before taking actions. Civic engagement in the formulation of tax bills ensures a strong sense of responsibility which avoids opposition from the public and empowers citizens and state as agents of positive change. If ...

The paper will address the impact and importance of genuine empathy between Democrats and Republicans. According to differencebetween.net, sympathy and empathy are the two most confused words in English language. Sympathy is feeling sorry/having pity for somebody but you do not surely understand how they are actually feeling. Empathy on the other hand is when you put yourself in the other person’s shoes to understand their feelings. The paper will show how lack of empathy has caused the Republicans and Democrats to take liberal and conservative stand in major social issues. These issues include same sex marriage, abortion, ...

The play Twelve Angry Men was first presented as a television broadcast in 1954 on CBS. Despite its obvious adaptability to the stage, and several presentations on the London stage, it took half a century before the play actually appeared in Broadway. The play itself revolves around a jury that has to deliberate on the guilt or innocence of a teen accused of stabbing and killing his father. However, the play is less about the “mystery,” which is never really resolved, than it is about the struggle that goes on the jury room between these twelve men. In many ways, the actions and ...

One of the founding principles of American Democracy is that an informed and educated electorate is more apt to participate in the political process. Yet special interest groups, political action committees and powerful lobbyists have transformed the way in which public policy is shaped and enacted. The current crisis of faith in government has reached unprecedented levels – a recent study revealed that less than 25 percent of Americans expect the federal government to “do what is right,” and only 34 percent believe that government “cares what people like me think.”1 However, a growing number of social scientists argue that people ...
