...Define due process and its origins. According to our text book; "The Due Process is protection against arbitrary deprivation of life, liberty, or property as guaranteed in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments." (Wilson, 2009, p. 33). The origins of the due process can be traced back to 1868 thanks to the fourteenth amendment being ratified that year. What is vital to know about the fourth teen amendment is this "No state shall deprive any person life of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law." (Wilson, 2009, p. 33). When I think of due process the first think that comes to my mind is being arrested. During my research on the topic I found some very interesting information in regards to the due process. I found information that states the term due process is much older than 1868. According to Barnabas D. Johnson "The phrase "due process of law" originated in a 1355 restatement of the 1215 Magna Carta, by which for the first time in history (at least in relation to the rights of ordinary people) "the government" — in this case, King John of England — was brought "under the law" ... that is, became subject to something called "the law of the land" which he was not empowered to alter in its fundamental character. This is the origin of the concept of "government under law" as distinct from merely "government by laws";" (Johnson, 2005) I found that information to be unique because more people like myself think of...

...Susongsha 1 1 Susongsha Shrestha Sherry Sharifian Govt 2305 February 11, 2018 Civil Rights and Civil Liberties According to Benzine, civil liberties are limitations placed on the government. They prohibit the government from carrying out activities that infringe people's freedom. The First Amendment provides freedom of religion and hinders government interference. In contrast, civil rights are restrictions on the powers of the majority. They prevent people from making decisions that benefit them at the expense of others. They are assurances of equal conditions by the government. They protect minorities from discrimination by the majorities. An example is same-sex marriages. It seems like a civil liberty issue except not all individuals can...

...Dhiraj Basnet Prof. Sherry Sharifian GOVT-2305-73431 9th Feb 2018 Civil Liberties vs Civil Rights Civil liberties and civil rights’ concepts are frequently used interchangeably but they do represent the various types of guaranteed protections. Civil liberties are the limitations placed on government that provide protection to the people against their actions. 1 For example, the first amendment of the Bill of the rights provides freedom to their citizens to follow whatever religion they like. So, the government are not allowed to interfere on freedom of the people to worship. However, on the other hand civil rights are control on the power of the majority to create equal conditions to all the Americans. Citizens are protected by some positive actions of the government from the discrimination by the majorities. 2 Protection of minority groups such as African Americans, Hispanics, and women are some examples of civil rights....

...Relapse prevention plan Name: Institution: Relapse prevention plan Client: XXXX Age: XXXXX Family situation The client under discussion has a weak family support system. The reason why the client’s nuclear family has had it rough is because he is an alcohol addict and has AUD (Alcohol Abuse Disorder). The addiction prevents him from attending to his routine household responsibilities. For instance, when he is drunk, his wife never sleeps on their matrimonial bed. Abuse of alcohol negatively impacts in the religious devotion of an individual (Hedblom, 2007). The client is not in perfect terms with his mother because by being an alcoholic, he is finding it difficult to adhere to his religion, which his mother embraces. His mother has the belief that religion can play a great role in getting rid of the alcohol abuse status. Additionally, the client with his siblings interacts rarely, and that is also attributed to his alcoholism. Agreement to stop using alcohol Besides agreeing to make an appointment with the primary care provider, the client also agrees to attend individual counseling sessions for one hour per day twice a week on every Tuesday and Wednesday. The counseling session will entail the discussion and relationship between alcohol denial and spirituality and the relationship will be connected to alcohol abuse. In the discussion, the counselor will also focus on the after effects of alcoholism to health like liver and heart diseases (A.D.A.M et al., 2013). Crime...

...As we know, the development of the Industrial Revolution was a gateway for employment. The increase in jobs created both economic and human population growth along with the development and formulation of new businesses that were required by law to adhere to laws, policies and regulations order by the Government. The implementations of these laws trigger a dimension of management behavior to arise. Chapters 7 and 8 introduces these behaviors as it relates to a managerial perspective in the concept of Business Ethics, theories, societal agents, factors, as well as the ethical principles and development of ideas used in making essential ethical decisions in a Business respectively. Business ethics is defined as the study of right and wrong actions in business. As in any business it is my understanding that every employee must sign a contractual agreement abiding to a company's business policies, regulations (rights for both a business and employees), and guidelines upon employment. I have witness a situation, aside from its commonality as occurrences, on Guam that most managers do not necessarily uphold to their employers code of ethics and it may simply be for reasons of unintentional (overlook) or intentional (personal gain). The theories of Amorality and Moral Unity describes how behaviors in management are perceived and judged by their ethical business standards and how society views it as proper or improper codes of conduct. In the early 1990’s, as I recall certain...

...Abstract This paper will provide a definition and history of victimology as well as give examples of real life victims. Second, this paper will discuss how victimology is different from criminology, sociology and psychology. This paper will also discuss hate crimes, the first safe house for battered women, children’s rights groups. Finally, this paper will also discuss organizations that provide advocacy for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse and homicides. Introduction to Victimology Victimology is the study of victims of crime and the interactions between the victim and the perpetrator (victimology, 2006). Victimology is to investigate the victims role in the commission of crimes and sometimes the psychological effect those crimes have on the victims (victimology, 2007). Today’s criminal justice system is a fairly new appearance, in the middle ages victims themselves were responsible for dealing with criminals on their own as there were no authorities to enforce the law. Murder has always been unacceptable behavior, but it was always up to the victims or their survivors to determine the course of action to be taken against the person committing the crime. In 2200 B.C.E. was when Law of Moses, the Code of Hammurabi and Roman law all consisted of elements to individual responsibility for harms committed against others (Doerner & Lab, 2008). It was until the 1940’s that the criminal justice system decided to not only focus their time in...

...The United States of America Immigration and Naturalization Act (INA) can be split into five categories: family-based, employment-based, per-country ceilings, refugees and asylees, the diversity visa program, other forms of humanitarian relief, and finally, U.S. citizenship. These five categories consist of limitations, requirements, and exceptions. One of the most controversial category of immigration today is “Refugees and Asylees”. According to the INA, “Refugees are admitted to the United States based upon an inability to return to their home countries because of a ‘well-founded fear of persecution’ due to their race, membership in a particular social group, political opinion, religion, or national origin” (“How the United”).

...Final Draft Gender Discrimination DeVry University Gender Discrimination against Men The one question I will ask is: Why is discrimination against men left unseen or barely heard? Gender discrimination in the United States has not changed. Gender Discrimination has been a big issue for years, and it does not only affect women. This is an ongoing issue that affects the world. Gender discrimination is mostly paid attention to when a woman is being discriminated against. Though I am a woman, I care very deeply about Gender discrimination against men. The intended audience is people in the professional field of education. This includes but is not limited to professors and university administrators. My secondary audience will be intended for other men who feel they were discriminated against. The article I chose is about Gender discrimination against men. In the articles I read, I found a lot of interesting information: Christopher Niebauer was a psychology professor at Slippery Rock University in Pittsburgh, Pa in 2000. He filed a complaint against the Psychology department claiming that he had been discriminated against, because he was a male. The article also highlighted the problems that were going on in the campus offices. It also stated he was being bullied at work and basically was pushed to the side. He filed the proper complaints, and it was all ignored even down to him filing a lawsuit. (Lord, 2014) The psychology professor claimed that he filed the complaint with...
