A bicameral parliament is a system of the legislative branch of the government made up of two complimentary houses that work together to pass laws. This system of parliament ensures that both the citizens and the government are adequately represented in the house and that sufficient consultations are made before any bills are passed into laws. In the case of the United States, the Senate embodies the interests of the state whereas the House of Representatives exemplifies the views of the country population as a whole (Moran 1895). The modes of qualification into these houses vary from one nation ...

The Cave

Plato’s The Cave is an allegorical story which Socrates was telling one of his followers Glaucon to explain to him the difference between a philosopher who seeks wisdom and others who aim to remain in ignorance. In the story, Socrates tells of a group of people who have been chained facing an empty wall their entire lives. They are unable to look anywhere, except the wall. Right behind them is an assembly line of items that are constantly going by which are reflected onto the wall by the light which comes from the fire that is behind the ...

In order to ensure peace and prosperity of a country, most governments have employed the use of stringent rules and regulations to govern people. However, some people stray away from the common perception of government and embrace anarchy. Anarchy is basically opposite of what the government stands for, anarchism is a political ideology (Carter, 1971) that holds the state undesirable and harmful while advocating for stateless institutions. The view of anarchists stray away from the commons masses and more often they tend to go extreme and cause social disturbance and unrest (Gage, 2009)as was the case of the ...

Introduction

Social Media is a part of our lives today, and it is there to stay. This is a platform that has enabled individuals to have the chance of interacting with each other directly. By the fact that these platforms are fast and precise, they have been accepted readily by the members of the society. These platforms include sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and WeChat just to name but a few. The immediate use of these locations has been influenced by the fact that a huge percentage of individuals have access to smartphones and the internet. As a result, individuals ...

A rhetorical analysis can be termed as an art of persuasion that analyzes the different elements or strategies applied by an author for the purpose of communicating his or her massage to the existing audience and to persuade the readers. Honesty is an important virtue that forms part of the human life. Honesty is a moral value encouraged by many people in homes and organizations.

The politics in the real world and the TV series is based on two different plot although they can sound a bit similar. The article mentioned a lot of similarities with the role played by women in TV Series and Hillary Clinton. The roles played in the TV series are directed as like the director wanted but in the real life many things make the difference. The TV shows can easily show someone as the hero in the eye of the viewers with some powerful personalities and work. They can put them into the crown or make them the ...

Details of the Documentary

Sustainability is one of the major issues in ecology and environmental science. Theoretically, any development initiative should be sustainable, which means that it accomplishes its intended purpose without causing problems in the future. One of such development initiatives was the creation of the suburban landscape that was conceptualized from the 1950s to 1960s. The documentary film “Suburban America: Problems & Promise” provides a general history of the development of the suburban landscape in the Unites States (US). This documentary film was intended as an educational tool for students 12 years and above.

Purpose of the Documentary

The film basically shows that the suburban landscape ...

Q1 Based on the best quote, “Take whatever idiot they have at the top of whatever agency and give me a better idiot Give me a caring idiot, give me a sensitive idiot, just don’t give me the same idiot” by the president of the Jefferson Parish, Aaron Broussard and the words from James Lee Wit that states “we promised to make an agency that could deliver on the political promises” (Cooper & Block, 2006). This suggests that FEMA was expected to provide the best services that were related to homeland security, for instance dealing with disaster, Hurricane Katrina ...

When it comes to the term coercion, there are usually negative connotations mentioned and covered. Indeed, to coerce someone is to be perhaps punitive and harsh when it comes to leveraging someone to comply with a preference or directive. However, there are some areas of concern and discussion where the usual shades of black and white when it comes to coercion instead fade to shades of gray. For example, if a person charged with a crime is clearly guilty but is not pleading to that effect, they can be offered a plea deal or told that the death penalty ...

When stating that Democracy demand deliberative judgment, Barber is simply stating that to achieve democracy, judgment needs to be made after long and careful thinking over the alternatives and evaluative judgment. Without the long consideration process, the citizens might not have the information and the grounds to make effective judgment or find a common ground. In my opinion, the deliberative judgment is the essence of making decisions, especially when they are important. The process of deliberation before making a judgment can shape the society and make people more aware about the realities of things around them. Important issues and ...

Dr.

The Safe Havens of Global Cities In his article, “The West’s Major Cities are a Bulwark Against the Tide of Right-Wing Nationalism,” Ishaan Tharoor writes about the celebration in London of the Battle of Cable Street, which was a protest that had various groups coming together to prevent a group of fascists from marching over eighty years ago (Tharoor). It was a time when there was a dangerous level of hatred and anger directed at the Jewish communities in Europe (Tharoor). Indeed, the events taking place at the time of those original Cable Street protests, occurred in ...

Locus of Control Scale

The Instrument The Locus of Control Scale was originally designed by Rotter in 1966. It is used to determine on what people think affects specific outcomes of their actions and life in general. People with an internal focus of control believe that they are able t influence the outcome of their actions, whereas people with an external locus of control believe more in luck and fate rather than themselves (Lefcourt, 1982).

My Score

The score I received was 10 points out of the possible 23. Having achieved a score that is in between the external and internal influence, it is obvious ...

Critical Thinking in Communication: Detecting Media Bias

Critical Thinking in Communication: Detecting Media Bias The issue of illegal immigration has been discussed for decades. State and federal legislation has been drafted in order to respond to the issue, however, these policies have had an insignificant effect on the flow of people coming into the country illegally. In addition to the anemic effect that laws related to illegal immigration have on solving the problem, politicians will commonly leverage the issue as a means to manipulate their own popularity. The divisive nature of the issue is such that the nature of proposed response can influence the voting decisions ...

Alcibiades, a young man who wants to enter politics, enters a dialogue with Socrates about the qualities of a good political leader. While he believes that his education and experiential knowledge are enough to make him a good politician, Socrates proves to him that he needs to learn about the true meaning of abstract and controversial concepts, such as justice or goodness before being able to counsel others about it. In particular, Socrates shows young Alcibiades that he does not have self-knowledge and persuades Alcibiades that a man who wants to enter politics first needs sufficient self- knowledge in ...

Introduction

On June 17, 1972, Americans woke up to the news of several burglars arrested in the Democratic Nation Committee (DNC) offices located in the Watergate building.

Several media houses and bloggers covered the scandal giving different views on the issue. News coverage of the Watergate scandal impacted the views of Americans on politics and politicians differently. The following essay analyzes two articles that described the conduct of President Nixon regarding the Watergate scandal ...

1. Routine Message: I was quite comfortable with Konrad Yakabuski’s assessment of our health care system. That is, until his last paragraph, where he states, “Younger doctors, motivated by more noble goals than money, seem to get this” (Doctors Don’t Get It: Health Care is a Team Game, Aug. 18). I am a 66-year-old family doctor with almost 40 years of practice under my belt. Fortunately, I really don’t need the money. I resent the implication that “older” doctors are less “noble” than younger ones. Most doctors were not looking for a personal boost to their ...

Corruption is a multidimensional phenomenon with economic, political and cultural aspects. Its causes can be a combination of economic, political and cultural factors. Its impact can permeate the economic, political and cultural spheres. Brazil, India and China are countries that belong to the BRICS or the organization of emerging economies. Corruption can hamper the economic growth prospects of these economies. A comparison of corruption in Brazil, India and China provides a deeper understanding of the historical roots of this problem and the implications on the future growth prospects of these countries.

Qualitative Research

Brief Description The interview was conducted among two people on the topic “Interpretation of the migration crisis”, which turned to be quite challenging due to the sensitiveness of the topic. First of all, it was problematic to find participants, as the majority thought that the answers may affect their social or professional life, even though I made it clear that the participation is anonymous. Secondly, one of the respondents refused to continue answering the questions in the middle of the interview without explaining the reasons. However, as this option was discussed before the interview, it did not affect the ...

St Louis and New Orleans were the furthest points in the West in 1860. San Francisco was not in existence, and the whole of the population was composed of native tribes that were cut out from active participation in the national economy. There was no transport system, and the farthest point of the railroad was in St Louis while the area between Chicago and San Francisco was largely untapped for economic activities like mining and agricultural production. There were more than forty native tribes, but their population did not cross the 100,000 mark. The population grew very fast ...

Freedom is an important component of a society where political leaders, society members, intellectuals, and institutions come together to design and implement policies that focus on the need for mutual respect for each other’s freedom. Freedom and equality are therefore the best ways through which democracy of a nation is promoted such that both men and women become equal regarding liberty. In such cases, freedom and equality both co-exist in the way the former allows everyone to express their opinions or thoughts so long as they are not contrary to the law while equality ensures that everyone in ...

What was the Basis of the East India Trading Company’s Interest in India?

The East India Trading Company (hereafter referred to as the EIC) had two purposes in creating an economic foothold in the vast continent of India. First, and perhaps most important, was the fact that Britain was lagging behind the rest of Europe when it came to trade – despite their control of the seas (which, incidentally, interested Indian rulers almost as much as India interested the EIC), they were losing economic control to countries like the Netherlands and the Portuguese. While the Dutch, at least, had already established their own market in India, EIC agents hoped that they would be ...

It is traditionally thought that the primary function of law is to regulate people’s behavior and, thus, to establish order within a community. Law and fear of punishment are supposed to prevent people from criminal activity. Therefore, law and law enforcement are essential components of any civil society. At the same time, morality can also perform the function of regulating people’s behavior. Besides, very often morality is named a predecessor to law since many laws were made on the basis of certain moral principles which the society thought necessary to follow. And even though morality does not ...

There are indeed many things that can be done to solve the problem of Environmental Degradation in Canada. In our lecture, there was a list provided and one included in the list is the removal of leaded fuels and replacing it unleaded gasoline. While I think the unleaded gasoline would indeed do better for people, I think there must be more studies on the possible effects of this change. While there are diverse ways on solving environmental issues, experts and the government should decide which ones are the best. In my opinion, simply replacing leaded gasoline is not a ...

Introduction

The proliferation of health care centers in the United States is influenced by various factors which can be broadly categorized into political, social and economic factors. Reforms in the health care system have been ongoing for many years. These reforms are concerned with providing the population with cost-effective, high-quality services which are easily accessible. The demographics are changing with people recognizing the importance of health, and the demand for health care services has influenced the growth and the rise of health care centers.

Administration Relationships

The relationships between the public policy-makers and the executors (civil servants) have attracted the attention of many scholars in the public administration, political science, public policy and law. The focus is on the relationship between the government, parliament, and the public service. However, the relationship between the federal bureaucracy and the elected policy-makers is crucial for the government functioning, its professional standards, as well as social credibility. Regardless of the perspective of the government being consistent, its texture, characteristics, operating principles and procedures vary from one public policy sector to another (Guess & Farnham, 2011, p. 315). This part focuses ...

Paul Fryes discusses how the American politicians ignore the problems of the Black people as one of the largest disadvantaged groups in the world and how the Black people cannot create a response to the ignorant politicians by developing a political strategy as a group of all Black voters. As known, political parties give attention to the groups providing a financial contribution to their campaigns, the size of voters in the group, and loyalty of voters in the group. The main aim is to collect the highest possible financial support and collect most of the votes for politicians. The ...

Iraq

Introduction The period between 2003 and 2011 is a duration that will remain in the history of Iraq for decades to come. It was a period characterized by unprecedented levels of violence and political disorder whereby there was a strong influence exerted on Iraqi politics by foreign powers. The same period witnessed the American-led military troop invasion of Iraq, in an exercise that overthrew Saddam Hussein’s Ba’ath Party governance. The year 2011 marked the end of nearly decade-long fight when the US troops left the country. After the invasion, there were efforts to reconstruct Iraq. However, the ...

Documentary film “Ethos: Time to Unslave Humanity” presented by Woody Harrelson was produced in 2011 by the director Pete McGain.

“Ethos” is defined in the Cambridge Dictionary as “the set of beliefs, ideas, etc. about the social behavior and relationships of a person or group” (Meaning). So, judging from the name, the film offers the way of unslaving humanity by forming some kind of “correct” social beliefs and behavior. The motto of the film is: “It is impossible to change the system without knowing the process of its work”. The plot of the film shows us all sides of not working system, which contradicts democracy, individual’s liberty and environment. Unlimited and uncontrolled corporate power is defined as the ...

The end of the Second World War ushered Japan into a completely different era. A new constitution was instituted that made Japan a parliamentary democracy. The constitution recognizes the emperor as a ceremonial leader. Actual activities of the legislative and executive arm of government is to be split between a bicameral parliamentary system (the National Diet) and the Prime Minister who heads a cabinet elected by the National Diet and approved by the Emperor. The Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) led Japan for many decades before they were defeated by a landslide victory by the Democratic Party of Japan (DPJ) ...

During the late twentieth century, American faith in government declined significantly. It happened because of different scandals connected with the US politicians. These events often showed that American officials had the same disadvantages as ordinary people, and this fact decreased community’s faith in the system. Watergate scandal became one of the famous events in this category. It was the only such incident in the US history that made the President Left his post. The scandal started after 5 people illegally entered “into the Democratic National Committee headquarters on May 27, 1972” (Guidotti). Criminals were arrested during the second ...

Introduction

The MENA Countries are the countries in the Middle East and the North Africa. Many of these countries are in the process of developing and some are less developed than others. As emerging economies, these countries are still spending the effort to develop their labor markets and human resources.

Abstract

The topic revolves on the influence of language aspects into the respective society’s affairs. Tentatively, Hispandering is widely intertwined in the American political scene. It serves to show an ‘existing’ relationship between certain individuals and a given community.

Politicians are always after winning people's hearts to gain maximum support possible from the voters. The article seeks to explore this behavior among the Spanish people where American politicians involve in Hispandering in attempts to win the Latino votes. Among the politicians ...

Post 1

The first post cites the rational choice model to be the platform through which politicians cruise through the ladders of their challenging tasks. From the posts, it is evident that politicians are normally at crossroads of opposite issues, which handling paints an image across their political career. Eminently, such politicians employ the rationale to arrive at policies that are of the ultimate importance to their personal gains. The gun control policy illuminates the strategic behaviors necessary for tackling policies that attract wide public interests as well as it gives strategic goals for such politicians. The assertions of the first ...

The rational choice model, today, is widely applied in understanding the behaviors of policy makers. The two posts depict characteristics that are primary, both to the behavior of the politicians and the rational choice model. From the posts, it is undisputable that people make decisions based on the quality and quantity of pieces of information that they gather. Putting such a situation crudely details decision making based on very selfish standing points. That is, policy makers, based on the pieces of information that they gather, would swing the nature of their policies in any way that befits their desires ( ...

“Many newspapers, magazines and television programmers make money by reporting on the private lives of public figures such as politicians, sports personalities and entertainers. While the media’s right to freedom of expression should be defended, the media should not intrude into people’s private affairs.” To what extent do you agree or disagree with the statement above? After the growth of media in the twentieth century, people who had earned name and fame have always been in the center of the media receiving the attention of the medias and the public. The media whereby the public figures and ...

Rational choice model is a multi-step models that policy makers employ in arriving at decisions and policy choices that offer a range of alternatives to choose from.

According to Birkland (105), economics is one of the disciplines that that constantly employed the rational decision model to arrive at amicable solutions among alternatives. Today, politics and politicians ...

Central to the conundrum facing politicians and political scholars in the United States is the low and evidently waning voter turnout. Apparently, between 1964 and 2012, the turnout in Presidential elections declined from an estimated 69.3 percent to 56.5 percent of the total registered and eligible voters (DeSipio 2016: Module 6, Lecture 1). Now, in answer, state and national officials have issued proposals for different institutional reforms including “early voting [and] voting by mail” in some States as a means to encourage Americans to vote (Ginsberg, Lowi, Weir, Tolbert, and Spitzer 2014: 219). Evidently, the mentioned tactics create a ...

Corruption poses a profound economic and legal threat for international corporations that are engaging in business globally, especially in transitioning and developing countries. The US Securities and Exchange Commission and the United States Department of Justice is at the forefront in the fight against bribery (Dean, et al., 2012).According to Oslen (2015), the establishment of the two organizations has seen an increase in the number of investigations and the prosecution of persons and corporations that engage in corruption. The Foreign Corruption Practices Act was established in 1977 to help in addressing the rampant corruption and bribery by American-based ...

Mobilizing electoral participation in contemporary

U.S. society Policy has long since become an integral part of еру modern life. Moreover, a lot of representatives of contemporary society, accustomed to the democratic values, as a rule, consider that the interest in politics, political developments and government decisions is their civic duty. And a modern democratic government goes to meet the citizens, not concealing from them its decisions and policy directions (but not all, of course). Elections for the modern person, namely, participation in it is considered to be an important component of social life, because elections are associated with equal rights and, of course, democracy itself. ...

1) Is it a good idea to not allow ordinary voters the opportunity to decide who their senators will be? Generally, it is a very good idea to allow voters to pick the people that will represent them. This is one of the most important aspects of the American government, and it has become a model for democracies around the world. Even though there are some people that believe that the whole population should not choose their legislators, believing the general populace to be uninformed and incapable of doing this adequately, liberty and personal freedom are two important values ...

The image that I selected is a still from an advertisement that one of the SuperPACs supporting Donald J. Trump’s candidacy for the presidency placed.

Gun control legislation is a very controversial topic and one that has taken a lot of attention in both academic and public policy circles here in the United States for the past 20 or 30 years. One of the most powerful tools which people have discovered to dealing with the issue of controlling who should or shouldn’t have access to guns is through the creation of background checks.

Slavery was a controversial issue for the Founding Fathers of the USA. For the sake of building an independent country, they preferred to ignore the problems of inequality and injustice that slavery brought into the American society. Moreover, the majority of the Founders owned slaves themselves. There were only 7 Founding Fathers that were not slave owners: Roger Sherman, Thomas Paine, Robert Treat Paine, Alexander Hamilton, Oliver Ellsworth, Samuel Adams and John Adams (Laccarino). They came from Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York or Pennsylvania and had to take into account conservative attitudes of the other Founding Fathers some of whom ...

Autoenthography

When presenting one’s self as a presidential hopeful, everything from policies to speaking voice is important. It is possible, however, that in accordance with propriety, we have become too caught up with how candidates act, or how they speak, and are not concerned enough with what they want to do, or what they will actually do. In some cases we are not concerned enough with what they have already done, as well. In the cases of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, we find very good examples of this. Throughout their debates over the course of the presidential primaries, ...

Why Violence Works

Every individual possesses myriad of feelings that can be manifested in billions of ways. And it is not limited to the instincts: quite often in addition to the need in food, sleep and sexual activity, people feel aggression and violence toward others. From generation to generation, from century to century human society has tried to extinguish these feelings, but there were numerous cases when such attempts failed. Sometimes aggression was the main instinct of world rulers, and it created a lot of troubles. Though, the world and the human minds have changed much, aggression and violence still find ...

Abstract
