The ratification of the Articles of the Confederation marked the first founding constitution of our country. Up until that ...

Abstract

Over the past years, the criminal justice system has experienced both praises and criticism involving the manner in which various officers enforce law and order. While most officers strive to ensure sanctity and order prevail among all equals, a section of the officers overlook the art of humanity and apply undue force to innocent and suspected individuals. Unfortunately, the blanket of corruption shields the officers from prosecution in the effort to safeguard the exposition of the inner affairs of the police culture. Corruption broils police brutality and individual victimization with unwarranted allegations as a weapon to silence their sufferings. ...

With electronics, the science is simple. Every device starts as a high-end purchase and the price drops as the product becomes common in ...

It has always been the desire of independent nations to act as such: making their own decisions in accordance to their national interest and sovereignty. It is true that nationalism in this regard condones any form of external intervention and manipulation, especially if these actions can directly influence a nation’s political wellbeing.

This obviously clashes with Antigone’s set desire, as the titular character is intent on burying him, claiming that this is right, regardless of what Creon’s ...
