In the 1996 case, United States v. Virginia, the Supreme Court held that the state run Virginia Military Institute’s (VMI) official and traditional policy of only allowing male students to be admitted was unconstitutional. According to the Court, as a state institution that barred woman from entering without a showing that the policy was furthered or was substantially related to an important government purpose, violated the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause (United States v. Virginia, 1996). The Court came to this decision even though Virginia had decided to establish a female only school, the Virginia Women’s ...

Introduction

Therefore, this brings to light the concept of whether, there is a fatual difference between actually being the perpetrator and carrying out the particular act or being a mere observer and letting the particular harm escalate among the people. Moreover, based on the doctrine of ...

Industrialization After the Civil War

Introduction Industrialization post the Civil Battle in the U.S. had absolute consequences on the economy, politics, and society. The consequences transformed fields into towns.

Introduction

In the process of designing and implementing projects, some ethical issues are faced by the project managers on a daily basis. If such ethical issues are not dealt with effectively with solutions, the efficiency of project implementation becomes reduced significantly. Ethical issues relate to how team members develop and sustain a good working relationship with each other and vary in the type of project and the region involved. There are no existing hard and fast rules that act as directives to solutions when ethical challenges arise. Therefore, professionals need to apply both leadership and entrepreneurial skills to resolve ethical ...

The Industrial Revolution began in England in the late 18th century, spreading all across Europe before it finally reached North America and Canada at a later date. The late arrival of the revolution to the colonies was, at least in part, due to the distance between them and the countries of Europe. We can, however, also demonstrably say that the slowness of the revolution in Canada at least was due to the sheer distances involved in the colonies themselves. This paper will examine the industrial revolution in Canada, moving from general terms to specific ones, in order to show ...

From 1860 to 1890, railroad networks were built across the United States, connecting the country from coast to coast in ways that had never been imagined before. The railroad was arguably the most important development that ...

What is the significance of the RLA and the Norris-Laguardia Act and how do they modify the NLRA?

The right of the employees in the industry of railroad (in terms of collective organization and bargain through representatives, chosen by them), was guaranteed by the Railway Labor Act of 1926 (RLA). The major limitation of the law was the fact of its application to the railway labor only. In 1964, the extension of this law has taken its place to the individuals, employed in the sector of the air transportation. In 1932, the contacts between the employees and workers were outlawed by the Norris-LaGuardia Act. The core purpose of this act was to prevent the exercise of rights ...

Examining the existing literatures encompassing the pros and cons of the private and government transport service will substantiate the ...

Abstract

Permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) are a type of motors that have permanent magnets mounted on the rotors instead of the rotor windings. This particular design gives the motor a few advantages over ordinary induction synchronous motors. The magnets attached to the rotor do not require excitation, which reduces the power consumption in PMSM. This gives the motor high operational efficiency and reduces the motor active diameter. PMSM are therefore associated with applications that require high torque but have limited operation space. The permanent magnets suffer from flux leakage and are therefore aligned in a pattern that minimizes flux ...

Introduction

Africa has been and remains the subject of debate and controversy of large countries. Over the years, the composition of the global players and their methods change, but the price of “African cake” only increases. The last 15 years for many African countries have been marked by the strengthening of trade relations with China, which has today become a major investor. Unlike European countries, which, guided by a complex of guilt for a colonial past of the continent, has long been focused on humanitarian aid and the reduction of African debt, China immediately made an emphasis on trade and ...

The late 1950s marked the start of the Chinese immigration to the British North American regions, which are the present-day Canada. No colonies within the east and west of the British North American regions including Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland, and the United Province of Canada had immigration restrictions. It is also important to note from the outset that the Hudson’s Bay Company controlled vast areas of the British North American regions, where the main residents were the First Nations people. The Chinese immigrants faced various challenges before, during, and after immigrating to Canada. Various ...

Antitrust Law: The Great Northern Railway

Introduction One of the wonders of the free market is that there are no restrictions when it comes to buying and selling products and services. However, this advantage comes at a cost as well. Due to total freedom, people and companies are theoretically free to impose whatever prices they dictate for the goods they sell, without regard to the welfare of their customers. This is exactly what happens in monopolies, wherein only one company holds the control of a certain commodity or service. Monopolies are usually seen as bad because they do not adhere to the laws of supply ...

Determining the intended market is essential in production forecasting and sales. The intended market will dictate the amount of the commodity to manufacture, the packaging design, pricing, advertising and promotional methods (Beaver, 2000). The character of the intended market concerning the geographical arrangement of the intended market will facilitate the modeling ...

Some historians consider the industrialists of the late nineteenth century to be captains of industry while others argue they were robber barons. Be sure to discuss both sides of the argument when writing your paper.

Some historians consider industrialists of the late nineteenth century to be robber barons because many industrialists during this time were able to manipulate natural resources to their advantage, have unprecedented access to the government and destroy any competition in order to pave the way for monopolies. However, other historians consider industrialists of the nineteenth century to be captains of industry because the fortunes ...

The backbone of any populous city lies in its transportation system. One has to comprehend the fact that the transport system facilitates proper commutation of the people of the city, and it keeps the city on the go by connecting the places. It can be opined that the system of transports in a city is quite like the blood circulation of the human body- something that means that a city would become dysfunctional if the transport system gets thwarted in some way. To gauge the immense importance of transport system, one needs to consider the modes, structures and systems of the ...
