Introduction

The European Union is the result of the flow of economic integration in the world. It was created in 1958 and became a powerful economic group. Within the framework of the Union, the benefits of mutual trade are established, the general economic policy is carried out, and restrictions on the movement of goods, capital, and labor are constantly removed (Krugman, Obstfeld, and Melitz, 2014). The creation of the EU was due primarily to the fact that in Western Europe after the Second World War, the contradiction between the international character of modern production and the narrow national and state ...

Introduction

The term “Brexit” has been highly popularized across the world today, but it has its root in the result of the referendum on June 23, 2016, for UK's exit from the EU. Brexit is simply a short-form for “British exit” (Mirror, 2016). EU members perceive Brexit as calamitous and in fact one of the most unfortunate events that have occurred throughout the lifetime of the Union. Britain became a member of the EU (formally known as the European Economic Community, ECC) on January 1, 1973, 12 years from the time it applied to join the community, and resultantly, it ...

Essay Plan

Introduction/ Thesis Cowlishaw may have a point, but it is understandable that the country would focus on the Stolen Generation rather than the generation before. This is because the children of the Stolen Generation were taken from their families from 1905-1970’s. Many of these individuals are still alive and can give first-hand accounts of their experiences. The ability to hear a person describe something that personally happened to them tends to resonate more than a story that has been passed down. This paper will discuss Gillian Cowlishaw’s fear that the memories of the older Aboriginal people regarding ...

Introduction

The distinction between how the West and the East control their local affairs, and how they organize their institutions is enormous. In a normal context, though, even two states in similar vicinity exhibit major differences in individual economic policies, religious inclination, and political systems.

The case of Saudi Arabia and France is a good one to understand how regional influences affect, the systems of government, political institutions, faith and economic policies of a state. For instance, the Saudi Arabia ...

P1 Socrates in Plato’s Gorgias criticizes Orators who are public speakers and tyrants who are rulers and oppressors as unintelligent groups of people in the society. He further says of oration as a type of flattery. This claim by Socrates seems unfair and harsh, but he comes to a conclusion that Tyrants and Orators are unintelligent because, according to Socrates, having power translates to having something good for who has it. Therefore, Socrates views orators and tyrants as having power in the society that they think it is good for them. It is from this definition of a ...

Kuwait, as a nation, has faced a number of successive revolutions, all led by the country’s youth. Despite its immense oil wealth, as the third greatest producing member of OPEC, Kuwait is small country. It has a total population of just 1.2 million people, and as a result is often overlooked on the diplomatic level. Moreover, it has a fragmented and complex political structure that can be challenging for outsiders to understand. So, Kuwait stayed largely out of the media, and international affairs, since it was released from Iraqi occupation in 1991, by Western armed forces. At that ...

The struggle for independence is not a new topic in Europe as the region’s history depicts a myriad of conflicts that occurred for the sake of independence from monarchies and the desire for self-governance. Throughout the past centuries, larger European empires broke down into smaller states while others merged to their partners or faded entirely. However, even after the Great Wars have ended, there were still factions hoping to separate themselves from their respective countries in the hopes of reestablishing their identities prior to their inclusion to larger countries. Catalonia, for instance, has been actively working on pushing ...

Although I had had several holidays in Western cities like London, Paris, New York and Berlin, I had never got any opportunity to visit a city in the Eastern Hemisphere. I had always been enthusiastic to have fabulous time in major cities of the world in the Eastern Hemisphere like Tokyo. I felt most enthusiastic about Tokyo because it is considered the capital of the Eastern Hemisphere. Tokyo is one of Japan’s 47 prefectures, and it functions as both the largest city and the capital of Japan. During the last summer, I decided to have an 11 day ...

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).

Introduction

Background In the contemporary business environment, the role of Human Resources has become a crucial and important component. Many traditional perceptions suggest that the HR is only perceived as a department to source and acquired new talents. However, most of the HR activities are far beyond the sourcing and employing the new employees. Human Resources Managers are involved in planning, coordinating, and directing the administrative responsibilities of the organization. According to Bach and Edwards (2013), human resources management allows organization and establishment of employment conditions that allows the employees to achieve the desired productive output while satisfying a wide ...

Constitutional Development

The distinctions between the United States and other countries in the globe have been a fascinating subject for many scholars, dating back to the French political thinker Alexis de Tocqueville, who described America as an exceptional region in the early 19th century. Nearly two centuries later, work ethics and individualism in the country stand out from the rest of the planet. However, this particular essay looks at the leadership system in the United States. For the articulate development of the political and social ideologies in the nation, a comparison is created between America and the United Kingdom. The federal ...

The study of various aspects of the history of contacts between the East and the West in the political, economic and cultural fields contributes to both the development of science and the improvement of mutual understanding and beneficial cooperation between the two civilizations. Implicitly such issues carry immense political relevance. Nowadays, when the questions of self-determination of nations with looming prospects of gaining sovereignty by a large section of public entities, when political leaders often refuse to compromise, it seems timely to apply the lessons of the past. In other words, it is very important to identify what price ...

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 ...

Abstract

Shortly after WW2, Japan became a place where the Allies put on trial Japanese military criminals of different standing. Overall, the process looked methodical and well-though-out, with an ad hoc classification developed for determining the guilt of offenders. The post-war years witnessed the execution of generals and the punishment of soldiers following their brutal orders. However, several years later, a complex of factors like the deliberate destruction of evidence or the enormous number of cases halted the prosecution process expediting its termination. As unethical and immoral as it was, the USA had its reasons not to prosecute some of ...

Understanding of the political system of Japan is critical for understanding the major interests of this country and forecasting its behavior. Since the 1950s until the early 2000s the Liberal Democratic Party remained in power. But in the 21st century, it was temporarily ousted by other political forces. In 2012, it regained power and is ruling party in Japan now. What are the reasons behind the LDP’s domination? I will try to explain it not going deep into history but illustrating the most recent developments in Japanese policy. The result of the Japanese parliamentary elections of 16 December ...

Is too much Power Given to The Prime Minister with the British System of Government?

Introduction More often than not, the American president is the one referred to as the most influential person in the world. However, there are some restraints put forth on the president’s power that is not present in Great Britain that is led by a Prime Minister. According to Bennister, (2012, p.43) "Prime Ministers have to act per the political, social, and economic situation in which they find themselves, and instead, have the power as well as resources to mold the environment they occupy either consciously or unconsciously." Additionally, within the political structure of Britain, the Prime Minister’s ...

Liberal/ Secular Vision

Al-Nasir, who was a major in the army, led the Egyptian military revolution in 1952. Many people thought that the revolution resulted from the soldiers’ experiences in the Palestinian War and the disputed Army Officers Club elections (Islamfiche Project75). According to Nasir, the makings of the revolutions began when he was still a student. His philosophy stemmed from the need to liberate Egypt from the hands of the imperialist government. Nasir believed in an independent Egypt where self-governance and democracy thrived. In his opinion, the revolution was the harvest that the Egyptians had cultivated for a long time. Since ...

Abstract

The Irish leadership perspective has a crucial role in its national life due to the impact Irish political leaders have in the economic life of the country. Understanding this national leadership characteristics significantly contributes to the national awareness of its strengths and weaknesses. Based on Hofstede’s leadership categorization model, the commonly held leadership characteristics can be described as small power distance, weakly uncertainty avoidant, collectivist, masculine, and long-term oriented. American leaders who want to engage Irish leaders and population will have to make adjustments in at least three dimensions of differences, namely, individualism vs. collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, and ...

Introduction

Secular states are based on the need to separate the state from religion. Secular states are neutral and do not support any religion. On the contrary, Islamic countries are based on the need to introduce Islamic law within political systems. Religious laws restrict democracy and respect for freedoms and rights as part of secular states restricted by religious laws. The true political rule should be based on divine laws such as Islamic laws. This discussion is based on case studies of Sayyid Qutb (1906-1966) and Jamal Abd alNasser, Egypt’s Liberation, 1953. In Iran, case studies ...

Democracy can be explained as a situation in which case the people have the supreme power to elect individuals they deem fit to lead. In the words of Abraham Lincoln, democracy is a government by the people, for the people, and of the people (Shively, 2005). The current global situation illustrates the majority of countries being democratic in nature while others subvert this option to reinforce anarchy and other systems of government. In this instance, this paper will evaluate two main systems of government, parliamentary and presidential systems in order to determine the level of democracy and appropriateness of ...

OVERVIEW

The Electoral College is a uniquely American system of electing the President and Vice President of the United States not unlike the “Roman Catholic Church of the College of Cardinals” that selects the Pope . In this system, voters do not directly vote for the candidate on the ballot, but vote for their candidate’s group of state Electors. This slate of electors is tasked with directly voting for their candidate in the Electoral College – one vote for the President and another for the Vice-President. There is typically a slate of party electors in each state, and depending on which ...

The research problem will be to investigate whether the patrimonial political systems of Singapore and South Korea are democracies that surpass their liberal Western analogues in terms of national growth and even democratization in some ways. It appears that, contrary to the popular misperception, democracy is not necessarily a lack of restraint and complete discretion or at least a range of freedom like the right to media. Sometimes, states like Singapore being low on resources and facing external threats decide on less liberal norms and behaviors bordering on authoritarianism in specific aspects. Regulated merit-based selection practices and disciplining norms ...

Rwanda is not only an African country with panoramic hills and kind laughing people.

Post-War Indian Policy and Aboriginal Activism

Post-War times in the United States were marked by the rise of Indian termination policy and African-American civil rights movement. Against the background of its neighbour, Canada also decided to overview policies and attitude toward First Nations.

The Decline and Fall of Apartheid: National, Regional, and Global Factors

Introduction The struggle for independence in the Republic of South Africa was weakened by certain policies and directives that were passed on by the then ruling Afrikaans. Apartheid was the biggest obstacle that these freedom fighters were to face. It was characterized by racial segregation that gave preference to the white people while the black people were not viewed as equals. Racial segregation was seen in many other areas such as health care facilities, schools and places of work such as mines where the black people were forced to work. The Apartheid regime came to an end and allowed ...

Before the establishment of the M’Naghten rule, it was not clear whether or not an insane individual could be judged as being guilty if the individual was accused of any criminal offence.

The application varies though in various countries. Russian Communism is better than Cuban Communism because limited political pluralism exists in Russia. The political pluralism though limited in Russia can lead to further reforms in the future where the people will elect the political party that ...

In other words those involved in businesses need to get the assistance of the politicians to enable them ...
