Essays on Neutrality

The role of the laboratories and forensic experts is to preserve their professional autonomy by providing scientific expertise through the translation and conversion of criminal traces that will help in the resolution ...

Net neutrality is a design paradigm that has been used in the United States to protect the internet users. It argues that the network providers should be detached entirely from the information they are sending to their clients. Therefore, at no point should a given web information be given priority over the other. The policy implies that information networks are more important and useful to their users when it gives no focus on one issue over the other. In addition, the neutral network can be designed without prodding into any legality. The Internet is an interconnection of computers, allowing ...

Moreover, American politicians used these issues to instill fear and witch hunt so as to increase their positions or power.

Net neutrality argues for the broadband service providers to detach completely from the information being sent on their network. It tries to emphasize that no particular class of users should be given priority over any other users. Internet is the most efficient tool for a large number of people, and no information should be made attentive to only a particular class of users instead it should be catering to multiple users. The principle of neutrality is not limited to the internet, it is applicable to everyone who relies on a network. It essentially means to say that all the information that is ...

The shape of the ground is horizontal to mean that the place is a plateau. A plateau is a flat land where there are no highlands; they are common near the sea like the ...

As such, the idea of a 'majority rule' is thought to be the defining component of the concept of a democracy1. According to Follesdal, "The contractualist case for majoritarian mechanisms in general is that such mechanisms secure the relevant interests of affected parties from standard harms to an acceptable extent"2. However, does the concept of 'majority rule' really function to serve the best interests in a democratic ...

Introduction The characteristics or features of islands, especially small islands or Small Island Developing States (SIDS), are such that the local economy in these territories or regions would depend on tourism unlike larger states (Briguglio & Briguglio n.d., 1). We can attribute this to the prevalence of tourist-related activities, specifically people choosing to visit SIDS for vacations or holidays. As argued by Jack Carlsen (2012), islands are appealing tourist locations because of the images that these territories engender. The desire of people to separate themselves from fast-paced, contemporary life influence them to view islands as idyllic spots for holidays ...

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 ...

The United States could not just stand by and watch their allies fight ...

Literature Review

Tourism’s basic purpose is to visit other places, cultures, traditions and expand one’s experience of the world. That is why Murphy (2013) argued that tourism is natural renewable resource industry in which visitors visit only to admire. However, tourism is so popular that this industry is producing 5% of the world GDP currently (“United Nations Environment Programme,” 2014). Hence, with the growing amount of money in tourism, the tourism industry is becoming recklessly extravagant when it comes to exploiting resources and harming the planet. But in tourism, sustainability is important to avoid noxious effects on people, environment ...

Net neutrality is the principle that all internet service providers should be able to provide all content and applications without blocking any content without regard to the source of the website. This means that network consumers are not able to have some applications unless they upgrade their membership. It is common to see internet service providers blocking some features like being able to host email servers on the consumer infrastructure. With this, it is not possible to have some services for the consumers unless the consumers will enhance their subscriptions. They will be able to have these features if ...

HIST1010: “How do we remember?”

Introduction Memorials remembering a tragedy (or perhaps celebrating the perceived positive outcome of a tragic event) often serve different purposes over time. In the beginning, they usually focus on the suffering and on the loss of both soldiers and civilians. The establishment of the memorial is an integral part of the mourning process. But while historians try to keep these memories alive in their ‘objective’ accounts of events, they do inevitably fade. At the same time, others (for example the government, but also support groups) try to remember the past, creating lieux de mémoire that evoke pictures from ...

Over the past several years, the government has tried its best to remain neutral towards all religions. Essentially, government neutrality towards religion requires that the ruling government does not favor any sect, religion or denomination over the others. In order to enhance the government’s neutrality towards religion, there are several laws that deny the government authority to interfere in religious matters. Government neutrality towards religion is a good idea because it fosters good relations between people from diverse religious backgrounds, creates a conducive political environment, helps to avoid isolation of religious minorities, and ensures that there is freedom of worship ...

Introduction

Henry Kissinger was perhaps one of the most active and important Secretaries of State. His forceful intervention in several questions such as the Vietnam War as well as his propping up of General Gustavo Augusto Pinochet makes him a reviled figure amongst those who have democracy at heart (Bass, p 275). This paper seeks to argue that Kissinger should indeed be hauled in front of an International War Crimes Tribunal largely due to his intervention, covert or non-covert in several mass genocides. Two of these are those in Bangladesh in 1971 where the Pakistani Army was given US backing to ...

Introduction

Business cycle and monetary theory are great aspects studied in macroeconomics. Economists were concerned with the changing nature of macroeconomics and most of them tried to elucidate specifically what goes on and the reasons for the existence of economic cycles. Due to this, several schools of thought and theories were developed. However, each economist was trying to outdo each other and criticizing one another’s work was quite common. The classical school which perceived economics to be a science of wealth was highly criticized by John Keynes. This paper shall critically evaluate the Keynes’ criticism on the classical school of ...

New Zealand has witnessed ongoing debates about the fluoridation of local drinking water supplies. Who are the main policy actors involved in these debates, and how have they made use of values and research in identifying and/or contesting policy problems and solutions?

The issue of common water supply fluoridation in localities has stirred not only local controversy in New Zealand, but also in other parts of the world (Winstanley, 2005). In fact, the fluoridation controversy has grown intense throughout years since its introduction towards ...
