Peter the Great is considered to be the tsar, who has dragged Russia out of the medieval circumstances to such a degree, that by his passing in 1725, Russia was viewed as a main eastern European state.

His residential arrangement permitted him to execute a forceful outside approach. Somebody might think that Peter the Great’s reforms were more cosmetic, however that is not ...

The incident that occurred on the Branch Davidians in 1993 due to an assault conducted by the ATF and FBI can be considered to be as unprofessional. According to the testimonies made, the Branch Davidians maintain that they did not fire their weapons until the ATF shot at them. Even though these claims have been refuted by the agents, I find that there was lack of communication among the ATF at the first assault conducted. The second assault conducted by the FBI was professional but extreme since it ended up murdering several people. I find that the two agencies ...

"Trias politica", as it was formulated in the 18th century, includes separation of powers between the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government (Peterson). An important element in it is the system of checks and balances, which guarantees that none of the three should dominate the others. This is ensured by empowering each branch to have its own set of powers (balances), and some of the competencies of each branch make sure that another branch doesn't abuse its power (checks). Here are just a few examples: Checks on the executive branch by the legislative branch: The Congress can override ...

Question 1 Response: Creating a new Constitution was vital to the unity of the United States of America since the Articles of Confederation weren’t sufficient for good government. If there was any evidence of this, it was that the United States was clearly bankrupt and now needed to be organized in such a manner that both the States and the Federal government had to share power in such a manner that everyone’s interests were kept in mind. A centralized approach was key to putting the country back on track. Hence, a meeting was held in the Pennsylvania ...

PART 1

Some of the Congressional powers are the power to tax, the power to regulate commerce and the power to regulate immigration. For 150 years, the limits of the tax power was in issue (Sky 2008), but finally US v. Butler, 297 US 1 (1936) held that it is broad and limited only by the requirement of general welfare. If not reposed in Congress, the federal government cannot raise funds for social services. Life will not be fair because poorer states will have poorer services compared to richer states. The power to regulate commerce was initially vague because ‘commerce’ is ...

Summary

The article titled “Amazon’s Shifting Tax Story” describes how the e-commerce company Amazon has moved its assets overseas in order to pay less taxes in the United States, where it is headquartered. In 2005, Amazon, a company since the early 1990s, moved its technology assets to the small European country of Luxembourg. Luxembourg is a “tax haven” because the revenue that the branch collects there is tax-free. Amazon pays royalties to Luxembourg in order to save billions of dollars in taxes that it would normally pay if its operations had remained in the United States. Amazon is not ...

What lessons should Kazakhstan learn from the collapse of the real estate market?

When the real estate market burst in Kazakhstan in the summer of 2007, it caught the country by surprise. There were signs that were missed or grossly underestimated; these signs could have assisted in the mitigation of the effects of the burst of the construction bubble.

First, the introduction of mortgages into Kazakhstan played a key role in the creation of surplus demand for the already booming construction industry (Griffin & Pustay, 2015). This in turn led to an increase in real ...

The presidential powers have considerably extended since the time when the Founding fathers framed the Constitution of the United States. At that time, the thirteen colonies that formed a newly established state were afraid of a strong executive leadership. They feared that if a president were entitled by the Constitution to have extended powers, he would have misused or abused these powers, governed by self-interests, rather than the interests of the nation. This skepticism toward strong leadership resulted from the experience that the founders had when dealing with the English monarch (The Declaration of Independence, 1776). In order to ...

In American politics, the association between Congress and the President has been, as one would expect where there is a division of powers, challenging. The Founding Fathers developed a system of checks and balances as the foundation on which the States ratified the American Constitution. As a result, and with one branch of the government writing laws and determining budgets that another branch has to execute and spend respectively, an inherent tension has defined the American government. Now, every President seeks to influence policies. After elections, a country’s President is at liberty to bring his or her goals ...

The following primary documents include two antifederalist essays and three federalist essays that were published in newspapers three to six months following the Constitutional Convention.

The ideal form of community policing empowers the community and, decisions on courses of action are taken in consultation with the community members.

The distinction between how the West and the East control their local affairs, and how they organize their institutions is enormous.

The government has three branches, namely the executive, legislative and judiciary, each with distinct powers and authority. Each of these branches are independent from one another but the principle of check and balance allows each branch to intrude within the sphere of authority of another branch.

This is one of the authorities and powers that are mainly lodged within the legislative body of the government. While the law making power of the government is within the exclusive ...

These people, however, decide many important issues of the national policy such as military matters, and decision making in executive branch of government, and they just focus on serving the interest of ...

The 1876 Texas Constitution is among the most detailed state constitutions within the United States. There have been a significantly high number of proposed constitutional amendments since the document became operational on 15 February 1876 (Ericson). From the outset, it is important to note that the high number of amendments to the Texas Constitution is because it is highly restrictive given that the State of Texas can only exercise powers derived from the its Constitution. The Texas Constitution is similar to the other State constitutions because it provides for the separation of powers, but also includes some provisions that ...

The Constitution displays the types of power that each branch of government can provide. The different levels of government were implemented to protect the power of the country from being solely in the eyes of one man. Each power of government decides different areas of outcome for the country and it was set up that way to ensure there were other people who would have say in what occurs. It is not Constitutionally allowed for the President to take all the power of the other branches into his own hands and make decisions. The President should not have the ...

James Madison, one of America’s founding fathers, wrote in The Federalist Papers that “power is of an encroaching natureit ought to be effectually restrained from passing the limits assigned to it.” (Cited in The Federalist Papers Project 19).
