In America, the predicament of drug abuse and drug trafficking can be curbed through many different resilient ways rather than decriminalization or rehabilitation.
The government may skyrocket the rates of incarcerations for the narcotic users. Ronald Reagan made this effective in the 1980s and 1990s, and it may as well work in the current world.
The public should as well be concerned about the issue on illicit drug use. The media should display the portrayals of addicted drug victims. For instance, displaying a victim who is a cocaine user, dubbed (Johnson, 2012 p.34). This will instill fear into the Continue reading...

Presidents Compared: Reagan and Obama
A Chicago tribune article published in the year 2011 states that Obama and Reagan are differently similar. Both these Presidents, though Reagan took office nearly three decades before Obama, have many remarkable similarities.

They both were expected to do miracles both in the economic and war front, and when they didn’t meet expectations, many political observers were disappointed.
Though both of them were reelected Continue reading...

There is a wide range of text on the practice and concept of leadership. Leadership as a practice and concept lends itself to various interpretations, categorizations and theories. These exist because the mystery behind why some leaders’ styles are more effective than others remains unsolved. Leadership style is the entirety of a leader’s demeanor, personality and methods of communication in guiding others towards a particular team or organizational goal. Research on leadership style is dominated by analysis of subordinates’ perceptions on their leaders’ behavioral patterns in interpersonal relations, instructional leadership, instructional leadership, planning, and management efficiency (Sheehan and Continue reading...

American Foreign Policy on the Cold War and Modern Russia

History has long portrayed the United States and Russian Federation (or the former Soviet Union) as bitter rivals since the time of the Great Wars and the onset of the Cold War.

At one point of time, former President of America, Ronald Reagan was said to have a photographic memory. His expertise at memorization proved to be an asset when he was an actor and when he auditioned for becoming a sports announcer. However, when the ex-US president marched into his 70s, things were no more the same (Lowman, 2011).
In 1993 it was observed that Reagan forgot many things, including the names of his aides, Cabinet officers and dignitaries. And during a regular annual health check-up at the Mayo Clinic in 1994, he was diagnosed with the dreaded Alzheimer’s Continue reading...

Q2) Prior to the 1980s, it would make sense that institutional investors would be a high priority for corporations, given that they technically contribute the most money to an organization’s success. However, given that institutional shareholders were relatively late in adopting the shareholder value culture, this perspective is flawed. While economic necessity might make organizations favor shareholder priorities, corporate culture (particularly in the 1980s) relied heavily on managers, who were thought to be in charge of corporations up to the 1970s, and whose fealty to government regulation made institutional shareholders wary of investing.
In the early ‘80s, however, Continue reading...

Introduction
It is believed that Ronald Reagan, the 40th president of the United States, is strongly influenced by the notion of free enterprise. In fact, his economic policies (popularly known as ‘Reaganomics’) are aimed towards giving American industries greater freedom through deregulation. Regan may have been influenced by the economic theories of Milton Friedman whose view regarding industrialization and its impact is rather liberated. Friedman ultimately believes that the social responsibility of businesses is to increase their profits. In the same way, Reagan’s relaxed environmental policies is, in one way or another, a reflection of his Continue reading...

Diplomacy, in the modern world, is the practice of countries dealing amicably with each other. It is the process by which countries conduct negotiations and come to agreements; during these talks, individuals often act on behalf of the state. There are a number of desires that shape the movement of diplomacy agreements, but Schroeder suggests that it is the mechanism of shared ambition - which acts like an invisible hand to make alliances and international relationships work. Imbalances of power are bad for peace. In today’s world, diplomacy is the conduction of international relations by heads Continue reading...

The Cold War was a global confrontation between the two military and political blocs led by the Soviet Union and the United States, which did not come down to an open military conflict. The concept of the "cold war" appeared in journalism in 1945-1947 and gradually stuck in the political dictionary.
After the Second World War, the world was actually divided into the spheres of influence of two blocks with different social systems. The Soviet Union and the United States have sought to expand their spheres of influence. But the rough equality of forces between the blocks, and then Continue reading...

The main purpose of this paper is to consider friendship in social networks such as Facebook in the context of Aristotle’s philosophy and to determine whether the genuine Continue reading...

The topic of Abortion Law in United States seems to be a big issue for both American people and American lawyers. In my opinion, the number one reason of this is that abortion law is different all over the states.
The US has long held its conservative views on abortion: in Europe, they were legalized much more earlier. From state to state there were some concessions, but it didn’t change the situation very much. The turning point came in 1973 at the end of the process, "Roy vs. Wade", which began in 1970 in the state of Texas. Continue reading...

The Modern Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s is of the memorable events in the history of the United States. It had a great impact on the country in determining the rights of the Blacks.

The mass confrontations were widespread and lasted for several years during repression. Secondly, it was for the first time in the history of America that Continue reading...

“What political forces are involved in the Presidential election?” – The Party System In order to best understand the political forces involved in a presidential election, it is necessary to delve into the intricacies of the American political party system, and how these forces interrelate.

Introduction

The executive power was at first devised as a mere organ of implementation of laws. During the first years of the republic, the presidency was regarded as a nearly powerless body, given that the Constitution provides much more prevalence to the Congress. This was done on purpose because the founding fathers wanted to avoid the problems caused by kings and despots in countries that did not restrain the power of their rulers. Nonetheless, the executive office has gradually increased its power, especially during the last century. Right now, the executive is the dominant force in foreign policy making but, Continue reading...
