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 ...

How unfairly it was for Great Britain to impose a tax on the American colonies? There was also no representation in parliament. This was unfair to the colonists, and it needed to be abolished. The politics of taxing the colonists would only benefit the ...

Administration Relationships

The relationships between the public policy-makers and the executors (civil servants) have attracted the attention of many scholars in the public administration, political science, public policy and law.

Regardless of the perspective of the government being consistent, its texture, characteristics, operating principles and procedures vary from one public policy sector to another (Guess & Farnham, 2011, p. 315).

In the 4th Century BC, Aristotle clearly stated that for a government to have an effective constitution, it must have in place three basic elements. These are a public assembly, various officers of the state and lastly a judicial department. One of the most famous quotes of John Adams is ‘power must never be trusted without a check’. This may be said to mean that in instances that an individual or an institution which is tasked with the authority to rule over a people should never be given the absolute authority to have the absolute authority. Institutions checking on ...

The question of whether prostitution should be legalized is a major one. If one is to narrow this question to UK alone, it is still imperative to obtain an insight into existing practices and procedures in other European countries which have a similar judicial system with Great Britain.

Furthermore, due to the closed nature of the business, there is no clear picture as to the number of prostitutes and the customers, the ...

There was a number of reasons and causes of the American Revolution and it is sometimes quite difficult the define the most important and strong ones. Before the British Parliament tried to set the entire control over the colonies, American states were even proud to be British.

Although Americans were at that time politically disordered, not effectively unified, army was insufficiently supplied and trained, they still won the ...

England had different laws that affected the importation of grains dating back to the 12th century (The Editors of Encyclopædia Britannica), but it became a serious issue in the 1800s because of the costs of war; England had a rapidly expanding population and had a naval blockade imposed during the Napoleonic era that caused the price of grain to rise. The laws became a big issue between the ...

Central to American independence was the Revolutionary War of between 1775 and 1783, which saw the English Empire relinquish her control of the Thirteen Colonies in North America.

In that sense, Britain lost her territories because of the conflicts that emerged between the Empire and the colonists. Evidently, from the fact that the mother country sought to exert direct control over the colonies from its distant location to the notions of liberty that permeated the ...

For this comparative research, we selected Spain and Germany, two countries of the European Union with similar political parliamentarian systems. Personification is a distinctive feature of presidentialism and it seems reasonable to examine to what extent this trend occurs in European parliamentary systems today.

The position of political leaders in parliamentary systems is different from the position occupied by them in the presidential republics. Lijphart identifies three characteristics that distinguish essentially presidentialism and parliamentarianism (Lijphart, 2000). Firstly, in a presidential system the executive chief is elected directly by the electors by popular vote and therefore without legislative intervention, so ...

Introduction

Foremost, in the years leading to the American Revolutionary War, patriotic societies in the thirteen colonies no longer relied on the Mother Country; in fact, they sought self-governance because the period allowed the same.

Hence, “ambitious colonial leaders were no longer threatened” and could claim more control (Zinn, 2005, p.59).
