...Policemen of the World Final Paper Courtney N Carpenter Strayer University Contemporary US History Professor Tonya Simmons March 13, 2015 Policemen of the World Thesis and Outline Most people would agree that if the U.S. were to launch missiles to attack Syria in vengeance for their alleged use of the nerve agent sarin against anti- government rebels, it would be another addition to the long list of U.S. foreign military operations. Prior presidents have resulted to war after the country was directly attacked, such as by Japan at the start of WII. But more frequently, American presidents have moved forward without consulting congress, using their authority as the country’s leader or commander in chief. With that leverage, they have preceded without congressional approval to send troops abroad, engage in bombing attacks, or dispatch US military personnel to work with international allies. The Unites States has been in more than 50 military actions in the last half century this can average out more than one a year. And to mention there is still no recollection to cast a verdict on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Since September 11, 2001, there have been many explanations of the ways in which the arrangement of global power is changing or will be changed by the U.S. “war on terrorism.” Most of them take as their initial point the options facing the wealthy and powerful nations of the world seeking to control an ever larger share of the world’s resources. “Public support...

We have always ran on one promise "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."(DOI, 1776) The wars of the twentieth century drew the United States into a global leadership role. They showed that the United States was a force to be reckoned with and that we were the big brother of sorts to smaller more venerable countries. Outline I.

...Policemen of the World Thesis and Outline Janene Bull Professor Joel A. Goldstein Contemporary US History 2/22/2015 The evolution of U.S. Foreign policy following the Civil War is continually evolving. During the Civil War years, America had an economy that was based on agriculture. Farmers were growing cotton, tobacco and sugarcane. Slaves from Africa worked on these enormous plantations. . At the time, America was in an election year with Lincoln as the candidate of the Republican Party claiming he was going to abolish slavery. When Lincoln won the election he did just that, immediately there after 7 states declared their independence from the US, they were then known as Confederate States. After a few years 4 more states also joined the original 7 states for a total of11 states that left the union. Foreign policy is a country's self interest strategy to safeguard its national interests and to achieve goals within international relations. During the past 5 years there have been events that can be traced back to foreign policy's created after the Civil War. For example, Issues Regarding Guantanamo Bay (Policy - Platt Amendment of 1901), and the attempt to Stop the Soviet Expansion during the Cold War (Policy - Truman Doctrine of 1947). America has taken on a policing roll, and has acted as an enforcer of global rules. When there is a threat to world peace the U.S will respond.

...19th and 20th centuries. This essay will explore one of the most prominent examples of race riots: the Tulsa Race Massacre, its details, and the social and historical context that led to the tragedy. The Tulsa Race Massacre took place in Tulsa, Oklahoma between May 31 and June 1, 1921, with the violence centred in Tulsa’s Greenwood district. The Greenwood district was an economic stronghold for African Americans in Tulsa, some referring to it as “the black Wall Street”. The area was filled with a rich set of businesses and culture created independently by the black community residing there. The neighbourhood was also a hub for activism and discussing social change regarding civil rights. The community in Greenwood during the aftermath of World War I was committed to the fight for equality, publishing numerous news articles, cartoons, and giving speeches criticising the segregation and discrimination they were facing. The perceived threat of black Americans gaining civil rights and upending the dogma of white supremacy increased tensions in Tulsa, forging the foundations of racial violence and the eventual massacre. Starting from the late 19th century, lynchings became a common vigilante practice, with the vast majority of these victims being African American. The perpetual fear of lynchings in the black community is one of the inciting factors for the beginning of the Tulsa Race Massacre. On May 31, following the arrest of Dick Rowland, a nineteen year old African American male...

...Use of Force Brenda Love Mississippi Valley State University Mrs. Rochelle Cobbs Law Enforcement Systems/Practices CJ 384-Spring 2015 March 22, 2015 Use of Force Abstract This paper addresses the reasons why police use force and how police use force to apprehend suspects. There are several elements that should be considered before police use force. These elements include: if the police officer has reasonable cause to use force to arrest the person, if use of force will help protect the officer and others, and if the police offer should result to using deadly force. These elements are things that all officers are trained on, but officers have to use their own instincts on the way that they will use force based on various specified situations. This paper will observe the reasons why police use force and focuses on how police may use force to control situations. Introduction Force can be defined as restraining someone or something by use of strength, by command, or by use of weapons and/or animals. Police officers may use force when making an arrest. Samaha (2014, p. 155) states “Whether the manner of an arrest was reasonable is affected by whether the amount of force, if any, was reasonably necessary.” Due to each patrol, crime scene, and situation being different, police officers have to go with their instincts and use their knowledge and skills to take control of the situation. After several reports of police brutality, the Supreme Court began to observe...

...WHAT ARE THE ISSUES OF WORLDWIDE EVENTS ON A COUNTRY ? The exemple of Brazil with the World Cup and the Olympic Games Globalization Seminar – September 2014 GROUPE 36 - PARIS Maxime BEURRIER, Lauriane CORBIN, Aurore GUILLON, Yuan GUO, Benjamin FERRE It is used to say that "the surfer is wonderful when he is standing up on his board". Brazil is one of these surfers since the early 90s. Expected to become a major world power, the country has moreover the opportunity to shine in front of the world by organizing successively world wild events in less than five years. It had never been given to a country the opportunity to receive such big events, especially in such a short period: the World Youth Day (WYD), the Confederations Cup, the Football World Cup in 2014 and finally the Olympic Games in 2016. After China, who organizes Beijing Olympics games in 2008, Brazil is now pursuing his prodigious road on the top of the wave. The organisation of these worldwide events is a great opportunity to consolidate its influence in the world but also the risk of eventually falling off from his surfing-board, into the water. After the competition among several countries in order to obtain the right to host these events, each slightest actions of the winner are scrutinized by the whole world. Today, the occurrence of events involving all the nations of the world highlights the globalization characteristics.

...Loob at Labas: A Multiple Setting Case Study about Product Duplication in Public Markets Alix, Viblikka Faye Canare, Arra Camille Catolico, Keith Dolalas, Leslie Love Garcia, Elmer Ponce October 10, 2013 Introduction Markets have been part of everyone’s daily lives. It is where people can buy the ingredients for their meals for the day, school related things, and even clothes and accessories; there’s no need to go to grocery stores and malls to purchase their desired items. Also, markets (public markets) provide items at a lower price compared to those sold in leading grocery stores and malls. Since many people prefer buying goods from the public markets, the number of people who wants to sell their goods there is also high. In this regard, laws and some literature where written to help improve the schemes in public markets. In some areas in Metro Manila like Marikina, there are laws that were made to prohibit people from buying from sidewalk vendors as per Ordinance No. 201, Series of 1993. As a whole, we also have laws that were implemented to systematize the arrangement of stalls (Senate Bill No. 1319, Chapter 4 Section3). In relation to the laws found in the archive of Marikina City, we decided to make a research about the selling of goods “informally” or “illegally” outside public markets, also known as product duplication. Hence, this study will focus on how duplication of goods occurs in public markets. At the end of this study, the researchers aim to...

Hitler: Man or Monster The man who has become known to many as the worst warmonger in history had humble, even bohemian beginnings.
