Knowing International Politics as Moving Images

According to Carver, the three life worlds that determine international relations include the knower, the state-actors and the ordinary people. In international relations, objects and materials of political nature which are already known to the knower (those with knowledge on the issues at hand) and the state actors (those involved actively in matters concerning state politics) are spread to the ordinary people who are the common people without much knowledge of such matters and who go by what the knowers and the state actors say.

This fact imputes much controversy. As a growing area of law, related events are important mileage in clearing certain uncertainties. The Supreme Court decision of the year 2008 in the district of Colombia and Heller is an important event on human rights.

If we look at the reflection of leadership in professional and social activities, women often give men the initiative. Despite the fact that the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty first century gave the world quite a large number of women politicians world-wide (Margaret Thatcher, Angela Merkel, Golda Meir, Indira Gandhi and others), women's leadership in politics had not yet become a commonplace to society. And it is not that a woman wants to become a leader, but the fact that some of the problems of society a woman can decide better: problems of motherhood, childhood, and ...

The media have given the depiction of female-instigated violence a partial coverage, and the belief has been otherwise. In fact, the reporting and the perception of the society have been oriented to male- instigated violence and this construed thought has had a place in the media reporting parlance. Based on this desertion, I have realized a series of shortfalls that have often marred reporting and coverage of female instigated violence. Therefore, I can attest that the partiality in this reporting has construed the social mindsets that male propagates most violence, and the public belief has been that female aggressions ...

Introduction

The paper will examine the local and international media, which have played a crucial role in the Rwanda genocide. Local print and radio fueled the killings, while the international media did not take the news seriously and misconstrued events on the ground or even ignored the local reporting. The illiteracy rate was high at the time of the genocide in Rwanda and radio was one of the most important means to deliver the governmental messages to the wider public. It can be stated that the western media, such as CNN, BBC, The New York Times did not maintain the ...

One of the most elongated conflicts in the world has surely been related to the Jews and Arabs over the territory that defines the modern state of Israel. What many people fail to notice is the gravity of the conflict and how the conflict surely is not recent. What makes both the conflict and the peace process so complex between these two groups is that their cultures and religious beliefs date back thousands of years, (Jospe, R., 1995). To this end, they have many religious holy sites, for example, that are sacred to both faiths due to the territorial ...

The digital revolution that reached its peak in the second part of the 20th century pervades its influence on every facet of the global society. One of the effects of a society impacted by this evolution is the faster access to data and the availability of the global community to that information. Nonetheless, there is another instance that is changing the operation of contemporary society-extremism. Examining all of its contemporary features, extremism is posing a two-pronged threat; one, it impacts the global community and two, terrorism impacts the changes that society will undergo. It is only after ...

The 2nd amendment is one of the most important parts of the American Constitution, which gives an individual right to bear arms. “A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed” (U.S. Const. amend. II) has raised many public debates about the controversy of the topic with trying to limit and even ban the right of the firearms from citizens. The 2nd amendment added to the Constitution on the December 15, 1791 has been questioned and seen different interpretations. The American ...

A recent study demonstrated that most people depend on media as the primary source of health information (WHO Ebola Response Team, 2014). Consequently, this contributes significantly to the improvement of fitness and knowledge among the public. The health messages come from different mass media channels based on the needs of the reader. However, such information falls under scrutiny due to allegations of its reliability and clarity to the audience processing the messages. Survey analysis indicates that the media coverage relies partially on statistics findings from reports published about medical trial results and disease incidences. Thus, they are bound to ...

People have recognized that the modern technological advances that we experience up until now have come with grave implications on environmental issues. Policy makers, debates, and public deliberations on environmental issues are now geared to solving these problems. However, the awareness from the public is not entirely borne out of first hand experiences. After all, we are all not scientists here. The mass media is, in part, responsible for steering public attention towards the myriad environmental issues. Mass media, from its print era to the digital age era of internet and smartphones have always been responsible in both creating ...

Undeniably, environmental issues have attracted global interest. All economic activities take place in the environment. Therefore, it is imperative to address any matter affecting the environment with urgency. Production activities in industries result in high economic benefits since they supply goods and services that are fundamental to human life. However, most of the environmental problems experienced throughout the world emanate from these activities. The decisions made by governments as well as companies’ managements affect the value of the environment positively or negatively. Therefore, the decision-making process in public or private institutions must consider the environmental impacts. Media plays a ...

Statistics indicate that Japan is among the most media-saturated countries across the globe (Legewie, Nishihata and Seilder 2). For instance, by 2008, the number of the daily newspapers printed was more than fifty-one million.

Additionally, Japan’s public service broadcasting corporation referred to as NHK ...

The Use and Abuse of History in the Recent Ukrainian Crisis

A revisiting of Ukraine's geography and historical narrative would clearly shed light on the recent Ukrainian crisis and how the turmoil and sentiment in the Orange Revolution and the 2014 confrontation originate from a long history of struggle over the delicate status of Ukraine between East and West. Through the correct use of history, one would understand that history drew the dividing lines and spurred the conflict that spanned centuries. Eastern Ukraine was occupied by Russian imperialism in the 1800s, followed by Western Ukraine. This provides an explanation of the reason Eastern Ukrainians have largely remained loyal to politicians ...

A company’s culture according to Melisa Agnes is tangible in that outsiders, and customers can sense a real difference between one company’s employee and those of another organization. For instance, one company may have a culture that is characterized by innovation, excitement and collaboration, motivating employees to disregard the regular work hours and do anything necessary to get a job done regardless of the time of day.

Introduction

In the American legal system, the rights afforded to a defendant who has been accused of a crime are fundamental and of paramount constitutional concern. The Framers were cognizant of the potential for government abuse and ensured that a criminal defendant’s rights were protected. The Sixth Amendment provides that in criminal proceedings, “the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury” (U.S. Const. amend. VI). Thus, the Sixth Amendment safeguards the criminal defendant’s right to a speedy trial and guarantees that defendant is entitled to a trial by a jury ...
