Summary of Employment-at-Will Doctrine
The employment-at-will doctrine has its roots in the feudal doctrine of master and servant, wherein the master-servant relationship is viewed based on status rather than contract.

According to the doctrine, an employer can terminate the services of an employee at any time for any reason except an illegal one, and even for no reason at all, without risking legal ramifications. ...

It did not take long for heroin addiction to become significant among the troops. Heroin use began to deteriorate the health, welfare, discipline ...

Slavery was an important part of American history as it kept the economy of the country in balance. But eventually slavery led to the Civil War between the Northand South.

Many “black” families were destroyed because people were separated from their families and sold. Slaves even didn’t know where and when they came from. As I have already mentioned, slavery was the reason of the development of ...
