Essays on Facto

The contemporary situation in the U.S. regarding its foreign policy is still unknown. By and large, the latter’s foundations for the next four years will be defined by the President through his behavior on the international arena and the relevant orders. However, the stable to some extent foreign policy of the United States can be different from the previous years. In fact, the worries have been expressed throughout the presidential campaign, as two adverse points of view were supported. One of them was to remain the supporter of NATO, alien for all the friendly states of Europe, East ...

Cosimo di Giovanni de Medici was given the title Pater Patriae of Italy at his death and was also known as the primus inter pares.

Abstract

The paper presents the method for assessment the population that is not counted by the official census. The capture and re-capture method for wildlife population assessment is applied.

The limitations of the theory are discussed, and they are related to the choice of the region for the survey and sampling due to non-homogeneity of the regions. Basing on the US ...

Arguably, the worst artificial famine in human history which was engineered for profit, the Great Bengal Famine of the 1770 occurred between 1769 and 1773. In the Bengali calendar however, the famine is documented as having taken place between 1176 and 1180. The Bengal famine’s scope was the lower Gangetic plains of India and so devastating was the famine that a documented 10 million people were reported to have died due to the famine. Consequentially, India’s population was significantly reduced to 30 million at the time. This manuscript will thus appraise this historical moment in the history ...

Hitler: First of all, the philosophy of fascism is based on the ideas of nationalism and a strict system of social division. In the philosophy of fascism every person has its own role in the society as well as its own function. Overall, fascism is a political and nationalistic set of views and ideas. Stalin: everything is quite to the contrary with communism. The first serious divergence consists in the fact that communism is rather an economic philosophy than a political one. The core economic idea of it is that all people should be equal, everything should be possessed ...

Abstract

There seems to be a particularly significant burden on Muslim families who want to adopt in the United Kingdom (Ali 2013; Meer and Modood 2009; Frazer and Selywn 2005). Muslim families are less likely than other religious groups to adopt, and there are a number of reasons why these individuals might struggle more to become adoptive parents than others. There are no de facto rules against Muslim families adopting children, but the reality is that Muslim families adopt much less frequently than other groups. They also struggle with ensuring sponsorship to the United Kingdom and other legal standards—these ...

Introduction

China has long portrayed the image that there is a singular Chinese culture, but in reality, it is a large country with a varied population.

Even more interestingly, there are some specific cultural minorities in Taiwan, like the Hakka people, with their own cultural traditions, beliefs, foods, and even languages.

1.1 Background developments

Traditionally, accounting standards have been developed by different countries on the basis of local legal, economical and cultural institutions frameworks (Elliott and Elliott, 2009, p. 158). As a result, the standard setting was very country specific. With the globalization process at work for the last 3-4 decades and increasing mobility of capital internationally accepted accounting standards have become necessary to facilitate cross border transactions and make financial reporting comparable between countries and companies thereby leading to a greater transparency for investors (Nobes, 2004). IASB has been set up as a private international standard setter with a mandate to create high quality accounting standards ...

1. Discuss the movie, Eyes on the Prize. What does segregation say about a community’s values? How does living in a segregated society shape the way people think about themselves and about members of other ethnic or racial groups?

Living in a segregated society makes people develop fear and hatred that ultimately cause ...

Question 1

The Doonesbury cartoon presented in the question contains the quintessential arguments both for and against social justice. The NAACP representative in the cartoon—really a representative of all minority groups that fight for social justice—is acting by calling in doomsday propositions based on the current events in society. This is a parody that many people in the majority have about minority cultures—that because really terrible forms of discrimination were in the past and are no longer practiced, modern society does not need to recognize that there are still forms of discrimination practiced every day.

There is generally a sense ...

Introduction

The immigration legislation in the U.S. today is the product of decades worth of political wrangling and public anger on both sides of the debate. The immigration debate has gone back and forth between the two political parties in this country to such a degree that there is de facto compromise on the elements of reform, and now all we have to do is implement the reforms that are already in place. The argument has gone back and forth for decades with both Democratic and Republican regimes signing legislation that encourages immigration then opposes immigration. The full circle is here ...

The history of the formation and development of the American federalism is interesting because, in spite of all its specific features, it largely reflects the general trends that are inherent in any federal state. Such, for example, as a struggle between the center and the subjects of the federation for the rights and powers, as the trend towards centralization of power, and so on. In other words, it indicates the urgency of the problem of the relationship between the central government and form part of any complex public education. In 1775 the thirteen American colonies of England raised a rebellion ...

Contrary to the belief of most of the people, the USA had no official language in the country. Though federal legislators have proposed making English the official business language of the country, that legislation never sees the face of the approval. The first ‘English Language Amendment’ (ELA) was introduced by the senator of California, S. I. Hayakawa. However, that amendment was rejected by the Congress. Though this proposal of making English the official language of the USA appeared many a time, it never turned into a law (Brice 2013). There is a huge debate on this issue. This paper would argue that ...

Asian immigrants were, for many years, the silent victims of American westward expansion. When Americans were expanding westward in pursuit of Manifest Destiny, they were not doing all the work themselves. Manifest Destiny was the widely-held belief by many Americans that America was destined to expand across the current-day United States. During the 1820s all the way through the 1860s, Americans from the east coast of the United States expanded across the United States, seeking a variety of different things-- some sought land, others new experiences or natural resources. Everyone who participated in the American westward expansion carried some kind ...

In the recently decided case of John Doe v. Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services last March 4, 2013, the ruling of the Court of Appeals Maryland disapproved the retroactive application of the Sex Offender Registration Statute (Gerstenfield, 2013). This decision has delayed the interpretation of the Court of Appeals on the particular provision of Article 17 of the Maryland Declaration of Rights that rejected the application of “ex post facto laws”. To be able to implement this, the state of Maryland supported the previous rulings from other states, particularly Ohio, Alaska and Indiana the encouraged the decision ...

De jure segregation is an illegal isolation of schools based on the fact that the communities in which they are situated have been detached from the rest of the society. It also results from political boundaries that separate mixed communities. On the other hand, De facto segregation is an isolation of schools resulting from the settlement patterns. De facto segregation is currently widespread in the United States. Racial integration can be encouraged by levels of income. Whites and blacks who earn the same income would belong to the same social class thus find it comfortable to stay together. ...

Racial segregation is a dark and painful past of the American people. It has been landmarked by various criminal and legal cases such as the Plessy versus Ferguson court case. In this particular issue, Plessy did not follow the vehicle segregation and was punished by law. This is a landmark case which hinges on the issues of separate but equal doctrine along with de facto and de jure segregation, and the overall discrepancy in the criminal justice system. In actual terms, there is an evident conflict and diversity in the US criminal justice. It reflects the inequality in the general ...
