It is undeniable fact that cultural differences affect forensic assessment to a greater extent. Because of the cultural inclination, forensic assessment always produces results that are biased towards a particular culture (Fernandez, 2013). It’s worth noting that forensic investigators are members of some cultures; therefore, all their thinking and decision significantly reflects their cultural values. However, it should be pointed out that not all decisions made by forensic assessors are biased towards their culture of origin; consumers of these data must trust them and allow the notion of professionalism to prevail.

Nevertheless, the edifice’s distinctiveness did not come from its height, but, rather, it came from the way in which it combined “form, inventiveness, and technical expertise” (Arend, Benkert, deFilippis, & Tillmaand 1). The design and construction of the Commerzbank saw the “[b]reaking away from the American model of deep-planned, air-conditioned structures” that have a “central service core” (Arend, Benkert, deFilippis, & ...

Bambauer, Jane. "Hassle." Michigan Law Review 113.4 (2015): 461-511. Print.

Cuba has undergone a lot of social and economic transformation over time. Following the various transition periods through which Cuba has undergone is important in understanding its culture. The cultural landscape in Cuba is predicted by themes of race and gender and how the two interact.

This means that interaction in the society was polarized by class and racial differences as well as the formation of nuclear ...

A person who is medically declared as brain-dead cannot take a decision. In most of the cases, such patient’s relatives take the decision.
