Essays on Madison

The principles by James Madison in Federalist # 10 are better placed in accomplishing unity than those suggested by Cato. A large extended republic gives individuals the freedom of movement. As individuals move from one place to another, they interact with people who have different interests and cultures. It is only by such interaction that people understand the cultures and interests of other people and this enhances the establishment of unity. Having an extended republic may not look good in the short-term because of the evident divisions, but it is the answer to unity in the longer term. This is ...

Perhaps one of the most commonly known rights guaranteed by the first ten amendments to the Constitution is the Fourth Amendment’s “right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects against unreasonable searches” (U.S. Const. amend IV). Interestingly, while the meaning of the term “unreasonable” might seem intuitive, the Framers of the Constitution did not provide a specific or detailed definition of it. However, after the Supreme Court; relying on the fact that Article III of the Constitution vested the Court with the judicial power to “all cases” that arise under the “Constitution, ...

MANAGEMENT ACCOUNTING

Management Accounting Introduction Setting the annual budget has been one of the mandatory activities in organizations at both tactical and operational levels. The annual budget outlines the projected revenues and costs for the firm in the coming year or the finite time period. Such budget is set to clarify the organizational direction to pursue by identifying the target revenues and variable costs associated with the business operations. It served as a successful budgeting process for several years, but today’s highly dynamic and continuously changing business landscape has made this system obsolete. In the 21st century, the annual budgeting ...

Foremost, in the views of the Federalists, the only means through which the Constitution could maintain the partition of powers into the executive, legislative, and judiciary departments was through instructions incorporated into the structure of government. Accordingly, as Madison explains in Federalist #51, the Constitution gives each department “a will of its own” by ensuring that factors such as appointments are devoid of the other two’s influence. However, the new government gives more power to the “fountain of authority,” the citizens. By that logic, in the strictest sense, the people reserve the right to select the Head of ...

Is this a task best handled by the courts?

The task of deciding whether the laws enacted by the government are consistent with the rules in the constitution is best handled by the courts. The nature of the court system in the United States allows those sitting judges, especially in higher offices, to make decisions that are outside the bounds of party politics (Marbury V. Madison 137). This allows the decisions to remain within the framework of the law.

Would your answer be different depending on whether the judges in such courts were elected or appointed for life?

If judges were elected then they would not function as well in this role. This is because they would then be given the incentive to make decisions that will ...

The United States government involves the separation powers to give each segment of the government the freedom to execute its roles independently (Thurber & Antoine 123). Based on my opinion, Madison believes that the separation of powers in the governmental setting will lead to the subdivision of roles; the three arms of government will have the ability to operate independently of each, other. Additionally, the division of roles will make it easy for the government to handle various tasks bestowed upon it by its citizens (Thurber & Antoine 124). It will be possible for one arm of government to act as ...

Contrast risk, threat and vulnerability.

The threat, risk, and vulnerability are terms that commonly used in the risk management. Even though they seem to be very similar, they cannot be used instead of each other, because in a theory of the risk management there a distinct difference between them. The threat is one of the factors that cannot be controlled or influenced directly from the perspective of the risk manager. It exists independently from the current situation and the main task of the risk manager is to identify the threat on time and come up with a plan how to avoid it, prevent it, ...

The Bills of Rights and Criminal Justice in the United States of America

The criminal justice is one of the critical component of the United States government and social systems. Although the Constitution defined the main foundations of the social life in the country, it is the Bill of Rights, which substantially expanded the personal rights and liberties of the American citizens (Bodenhamer & Ely, 2008).

In particular, the following Amendments are of particular interest for the members of the law enforcement community:

The Fourth Amendment made unwarranted searches and seizures illegal (Schwarz, 1992). The Fifth Amendment serves to protect the community from self-incrimination and double jeopardy. In addition, it established the ideas of due process and grand jury for the criminal proceedings (Schwartz, 1992). The Six Amendment provides a ...

– Bill of Rights is a kind of an informal document, which has a direct bearing on the Constitution. If one defines it more precisely, it can be said that it is the so-called first ten amendments to the US Constitution itself, which had been proposed by James Madison, which were related to the rights and freedoms of people. – John Adams became the first Vice President. After George Washington was declared the US president, Adams was appointed as Vice President and was re-elected to the same position for the second time in 1792 (Perman 18). He did a very hard ...

The Whiskey Rebellion began in January of 1791 when Secretary of Treasury Hamilton proposed a tax upon whiskey in an attempt to produce a stable economy nearly twenty years after the Revolutionary War (PBS 2000). While Hamilton’s intention appeared to be for the sake of the country, however, it instead instilled a revolt which would threaten to destroy the nation that they had spent thousands of lives to create. This rebellion was instigated by those who lived in the western part of Pennsylvania who deemed the tax “an abuse of federal authority wrongly targeting a demographic that relied ...

Media Consumption and Materialism/Consumerism

Globally, consumption and materialism have become a fundamental component of the prevailing culture. Humans consume a myriad of products and resources that extend beyond their basic necessities to include technological innovations and luxuries aimed at improving efficiency and quality of life. Throughout history, consumption beyond basic needs has served as a method of boosting human happiness. Hence, excessive consumption does not necessarily pose harm to human life (Shah). Increasingly, however, important issues regarding media consumption and materialism have emerged in recent decades. As such, this study examines the neuroscience of human emotions, the use of recreational substances, and the ...

The civic virtues that are being discussed in the provided excerpts can be divided into three broad categories, namely, obtaining and maintenance of civic knowledge and putting one’s civic knowledge to use through public participation; being self-assertive when necessary, and self-restraint. Taken together, the passages suggest that to the Framers, the model citizen would be one that understands the issues of importance in the community and nation, is actively engaged in public life, and who know when to zealously advocate his point of view or concede depending upon the specific circumstances. Three examples are illustrative of this point. ...

The following primary documents include two antifederalist essays and three federalist essays that were published in newspapers three to six months following the Constitutional Convention. The antifederalists aimed to convince the states that the new constitution would not work while the federalists hoped to gain support and ratification of the new constitution. In 1787 and 1788, when the essays were written, the new country was struggling. The Articles of Confederation were not sufficient, and the fears that resulted in the Revolutionary War were still very fresh in the minds of everyone.

SUMMARY OF THE ESSAYS

THE ANTIFEDERALIST NO. 18-20 WHAT DOES HISTORY TEACH? ( ...

The United States had two constitutions to regulate and establish the rights and state orders. Articles of Confederation came into force in 1781, when Maryland ratified it and it was the first Constitution of the United States (Fritz C. G., 2008, p.131). The Constitution came to replace the Articles of Confederation when it was ratified by New Hampshire in 1788. These two documents have much in common. However, there are quite significant differences between them. By comparing them it is possible to see what the drafters considered important in 1781, and that they changed their minds in 1788. Articles ...

The case of Marbury v Madison (1803) established judicial review which allowed the Supreme Court to proclaim that acts of Congress are unconstitutional even though the review itself is not a part of the Constitution (Haas 2014). Though the petition to give Madison a writ of mandamus was ultimately thrown out, this landmark ruling would affect other Court cases for the next two hundred years as the Supreme Court would continuously extend their influence. Take the case of Martin v Hunter Lessee (1806) where the Court decided that it could “review state court civil cases, if they arise under ...

At the foundations of the American Revolutionary War, of between 1775 and 1783, were calls for independence among the Patriots residing in Britain’s Thirteen Colonies in North America. The Americans emerged victoriously and as a result, the English Monarch lost its claims over the vast territories. Now, the understanding of freedom in the thirteen regions revolved around the eradication of tyranny to pave the way for democracy and for that reason alone, the United States abhorred monarchies and promoted a government based on a democratic system. To that end, it is no wonder that concerns over the central ...

The most significant cultural result of the War of 1812 today is the American attitude regarding the military for purposes of economic and national security. Previously, the Americans had been distrustful of a strong military believing that it would be subversive towards the republican institutions. However, the1812 War called for the re-evaluation of the republican tenets as the conflict became a revelation that a formidable force was the precursor for the common prosperity (Hickey, 2012). Following the War, the primary duty of the subsequent regimes gradually became the need to place the safety of the nation by adopting an ...

When Federalists and Anti-Federalists were debating about the new U.S. Constitution, one of the most controversial issues was the balance of power between the national and state governments. In order give more power to the national government, Federalists had to take into account Anti-Federalists’ views and introduce three branches of power that would be empowered to control each other. James Madison, one of America’s founding fathers, wrote in The Federalist Papers that “power is of an encroaching natureit ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it.” (Cited in The Federalist Papers Project 19). It ...

Federalism in the United States may be defined as relationship between state 

governments and the federal government of the US with a progress shifting of power from the states towards the national government (Beck, 2011). Federalism was a political answer and solution for the situation with the Articles of Confederation (the first US constitution replaced by the current US Constitution in 1788) that gave the federal government very little practical authority. The Articles contained the direction on the ways to direct the American Revolutionary War, conduct diplomatic relations with Europe and deal with different territorial issues and Native American relations. Although, this document also became the weakness of the government, which ...

Nature of the Organization

Michael Kors is an American brand created by Michael Kors, at the age of nineteen. The story begins with the development of a collection of clothes he sells to the famous boutique Lothar's in New York. He wins the recognition of the press specializing in fashion, which allows him to know and to introduce it in this very closed universe. Encouraged by this initial success, the young man decided to start own label in 1981. That same year, the brand releases its first collection of women's sports clothing, a collection not quite sport, but rather chic ...

One cultural effect of the War of 1812 was that the fact that the United States had remained unscathed with its boundaries intact. This led to a focus on nationalism, and on the expansion of the country westward. A new economic agenda for the young nation was then created, which concentrated on creating market economies in industrial locations, thus allowing for economic growth for many citizens. There was the so-called “Era of Good Feelings” that evolved, providing for the ultimate unification of the country and impetus for its expansion and growth (Berkin, et al, 2014).

The American political system as it was formulated by the Founding Fathers and written down in the Constitution was based on a particularly eighteenth century vision of liberal government based on Enlightenment ideals. The Constitution and the Bill of Rights as a document is a great example of what the priorities and values of the Framers of the Constitution were. The values of the Framers which they fought a war against Great Britain over basically centered around the belief in limited government, the decentralization of power and the separation of powers combined with a system of checks and balances. ...

The person I chose to introduce as my unsung hero is John Marshall. John Marshall, who was Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court from 1801 to 1835, is best known for his opinion in the 1803 case Marbury v. Madison, in which he formalized the principle of judicial review. John Marshall qualifies as an unsung hero, because without his interpretation of what the judicial power of the court means, it is more than likely that the nation that we know today would be very a different place. Unlike most other Chief Justices, prior to his appointment to ...

In every country, there are three alternatives to the executive systems. The first system is the “presidential system where the president is the head of the government and the head of state” (Verma, 2009, p. 71). The second alternative of the executive system is the parliamentary system. In the parliamentary system, the president or the monarch can be the head of the state. The third system is the semi-presidential system in where there is both the President and the Prime Minister (Verma, 2009, p.72). The difference between the parliamentary system and the Semi- Presidential system is that the president ...

Introduction

The civil war was a fight over the state rights, and this claim can be supported by the idea that the thirteen colonies in America staged often defied the policies imposed by their mother country. The vast oceans that separated them from Britain served as a means for them to distance themselves from the monarchical rule and be independent in their way. Thus, the concept of state right was already observed even before the American Revolution and the Civil War. During the declaration of American Independence, there was also a need for the newly established national government to compromise ...

1. Marbury v. Madison Marbury v. Madison was a significant case in the history of the United States. It was an important case because the Supreme Court affirmed its position as the only state organ charged with the responsibility of reviewing decisions made by the executive and the judiciary. The judgement was delivered by Chief Justice John Marshal in 1803.The case had a vital role in ensuring that the Judiciary was a respected arm of government, just as the legislature and the executive. William Marbury was voted and declared as the peace justice of the country’s capital at ...

After graduating, he traveled extensively across Scotland, lecturing the public on his economic philosophy. He was a strong believer in the free market economy, which he considered as a system of natural liberty. The Wealth of Nations remains one of the Smith’s most famous works in ...

The bill of rights refers to the significant rights of the American citizens and plays a critical role in safeguarding the rights from infringement by the government. The original constitution was outlined in Philadelphia in 1787 and was ratified by the different states in America. The original constitution laid a base for the bill of rights. However, this constitution contained less number of individual rights guarantees and was focused on launching a system for an effective federal government. Persons such as Pinckney and Madison are perceived as the ‘architects’ of the bill of rights that is applied in America ...

Theme: Abolition and Education

The view of the stories exemplifies the theme of abolition. In both the works, the determination of the protagonist is to see slavery abolished. The plots all drive through the murky quest for freedom that eventually lead to the abolition of the slavery and eventual freedom to all. The long-raging battling against slavery took a different turn when protagonists to the slavery turned vile and rebellious to the subdued way of life. Douglass’ characterization of the events of slavery takes the war an artistic level with assertions and imagination of rebellion against the slave masters (Newman 127-52). However, Douglass’ ...
