Essays on Politicians

The presidency of Barack Obama has a lot of controversial topics to discuss and to review. First of all, everybody knows that Obama’s ambitious intention to change the country with the new reforms was widely spread. The United States of America were expecting for a brand new historical page. Many voters believed in the promises that have been made to them. However a lot of politicians do that, but in the end not even the half of promised is implemented. After six years of state leadership some results are obvious. In fact two more years left and practically nothing improves the ...

Of all wars to have been conducted by the USA, the war on drugs is the least promising, with government and law enforcement agencies fighting it in a losing battle. When American authorities got it going some 4 decades ago, it was doomed to be a losing war for a number of reasons, of which one is a historic precedent never taken into consideration. It is well-documented that the only lesson we ever learn from history is that we do not learn any lessons from it at all. However, what America should learn is that conventional tools of mandatory bans and restrictions imposed ...

Question 1: International relations mainstream theories

The contribution of post modernism to the field of international relations has been far-reaching. The major element of this approach is the criticism to Marxism. It takes various strands of thinking and among them is the constructivist which is based on the philosophy of constructivism being applied in social settings. The theory talks about what it means to say that something is socially constructed. It illustrates social beliefs and facts that seem to have some sense of reality in them.

William Penn articulates that the church and the state should have a cordial, divine and collaborative relationship in order to help men pursue and live a Godly life. Using the Divine Law (jus natural), William postulates that the church is a facet of the society that is established by man as a God’s agent to help man control his passions and adhere to the divine laws, which are formulated and enacted by the state. In essence, the church and the state should support each and obey God’s provisions as envisioned in the divine laws. In other words, the State and the ...

The struggle for political power now - it is not a struggle of the party organizations or competition programs of their actions. It is a struggle of images, political images that create the rating, and image-makers, the press secretaries and the "stars" of show business, recruited at a time of political campaigns. The real personality and activity policies are needed only as an "information events", that is, serve as a kind of alibi for those who form the image. Replacing the actual political positions and actions, they ensure the success of the candidates, whose image, not a program or action, visualize and embody the ...

The continuing environmental risk of deep-water drilling even after the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico stems from the stubborn failure to learn the lessons from the past. Boesch argues that the US has failed to enact legislation that would reduce regulatory oversights that contributed to the blowout. This is underscored by the obsession of private oil firms on the profit-making technologies as against safety and environmental compatibility of offshore drilling. Sophisticated technologies have been developed to extract oil, but little has been done to bolster the capacity to prevent and/or rapidly contain deepwater blowouts. Despite the ...

Organizing into a group is an effective way to bring social change. This is a presumption that both Capilano College professor Crawford Kilian and his fellow Capilano College colleague Leslie agree too. Though both Kilian agree to that fundamental idea, they disagree vehemently on whether minorities forming into groups, Kilian calls them “collectives”, is still necessary or even helpful for society at large, and how the collectives affect individuals in the collective. This disagreement becomes increasingly evident in the essay the both submitted to the Vancouver Review in 1993. Kilian first wrote an essay entitled, “Clonism Rules, Okay”.

It is clear from the preceded discussions and illustrations that the technological advancement has resulted to a great change in the political communications system. However, new media is only a means to an end. It cannot create a backlash against government where none previously existed (Megalogenis, 2010). Essentially, modern media does not fabricate information but instead it serves as a platform to disseminate what already exists. Unlike, the traditional media where individuals relied on edited information, new media platforms such as twitter give people autonomy to share information with the highest degree of originality. For example, citizens in the US share information concerning ...

One is called a manager because of the responsibilities and duties he/she carries out. It may be supervisory or implementation duties. (Shapiro, J. 2001).

Introduction

Budgeting is an integral part of public programs. The concept of budgeting emanates from the principle of scarce resource planning. According to Rubin, budgeting helps in efficient allocation of scarce resources and suggests choice between potential objects of expenditure (Stillman II, 2009).

In finding the correlation and association between two numerical variables, determined sets of information must be as accurate as possible. Otherwise, discrepancies in results and intended/unintended statistical manipulation could change the course of a mathematically involved study. For me, two factors could change the course and the outcome of a specific research in a major way – these variables are known as measurements and biased sampling.

Measurements and biased sampling correlate with one another in data extraction. However, inaccurate measurements unintentionally or intentionally done are different. Measurements based on estimation and inaccurate are also different depending on mathematical circumstances. Measurements are variables ...

Just as James Lovelock once said, “We live at a time when emotions and feelings count more than truth, and there is a vast ignorance of science”, it is true that in this age it is increasingly important to listen to the scientific facts, as science is the best tool we have to discern whether or not climate change is caused by mankind. The term “anthropogenic” is used to describe human-made climate change and means originating in human activity. Climate change is defined in the change in global climatic patterns since the mid-20th century and is not limited to ...

There is no question that, as the American colonies grew, a number of hardships were faced and subsequently overcome by its European settlers and later colonialists. Three men, John Smith, Benjamin Franklin, and John Adams, are often discussed in the context of the new land they encountered, the new government and its guiding principles they either formed or attempted to form, and the new culture that developed from the efforts they applied. All three men, in their own respective manner, were revolutionary in their approach to facing these challenges and displayed unique skills in the art of literary persuasion.

Aubrey, J.S., & Frisby, C.M. (2011). Sexual objectification in music videos: a content analysis comparing gender and genre. Mass Communication and Society 14: 475-501.

In this article, Aubrey and Frisby (2011) create a coding system which measures the correlations between representations of women and sexual objectification. According to their findings, female artists provide a greater amount of sexual objectification in their videos, and are placed under greater pressure to appear more attractive and glamorous.

Cultural Differences in Crisis Communication

The Japanese society is well-known for high appreciation of politeness, modesty, and harmoniousness. All these features were demonstrated by people even in the crisis time: people waited to pay their goods in the damaged supermarkets and saved electricity as much as possible.

However, crisis made people doubt the competence of their government as if it opened their eyes to the dangers of complete trust. There were no dialogue between frightened people and politicians who were afraid to undertake responsibility. The Japanese had more and ...

Introduction

Journalism is a field that can have many faces. One may even go as far as saying that this industry is the best one when it comes to making perfect disguise.

Board of Education (with an opinion written by Justice Hugo Black), the Supreme Court has further considered and limited the active role that religion or religious institutions can play in the public sphere” that is, on government property.
