Past Trends Even though to most it may not seem like it, the criminal justice system has come a long way in its dealings with the public. In the past the criminal justice system was viewed as a faceless machine that acted independently of the areas it charged to look after. It seemed that it was better to stay detached from the public in order to remain biased in their judgment and to keep their professional appearance. By studying past trends we not only were able to see trends in criminal behavior as well as having the ability to try and create possible projections on why it could lead but, we were also able to view the interaction between the criminal justice system and those it served. Both the criminal justice system and the general public...

Interface between Components The American Justice in the 1800s was quite different in the aspect of how the laws have changed. In the 1800s there were not enough law enforcement officers to enforce the laws. Therefore, many people believed it necessary to take the law into his or her own hands. An example of vigilante justice in the 1800s was the lynching of Henry Smith. This is a sad example of how people were treated; in 1893 Henry Smith was tortured and burned alive in front of a crowd of 10,000 people. People were executed for crimes not committed and trials were not an option (Keene, 2012). In the 18th century B.C.E. the first know death penalty was in the Code of King Hammurabi of Babylon. A person could have 25 crimes before the sanction of the state for the death penalty. Capital punishment in the 18th century...

The opinions of this essay will involve an assessment of recent trends, future trends, and contemporary issues affecting the criminal justice system, which will be identified and evaluated. The main point of this essay is to prove that the criminal justice system has a value in a high-speed, ever-so-changing, technology driven society. Past, Present, and Future Trends The past, present, and future trends that form the boundaries between the components of the criminal justice system and their connections surrounding the community is truly a genuine relationship formed by the law and society. Trends, whether past, present, or future have an effect on the criminal justice system because trends much like fads change quickly, and the criminal justice system must succeed and put every effort into keeping up with these trends and the innovative crimes that are created. If one were asked to describe and explain the connections that involve the criminal justice system and crime trends, it would be a difficult task because crime does not have consistent trends or patterns, which can result in one thinking it is a crime trend because these trends can begin and end in an instant (Rosenfeld & Goldberger...

...Implementing situation analysis to identify marketing opportunity For a marketer, the most important aspect of marketing management is to analyze the recent and changing trends in the market, conduct a situational analysis and meet the demands of their consumers. Trend Analysis is the practice of collecting information, analyzing it and them attempting to spot a pattern or ‘trend’ in the information. After spotting the trend in the information, marketers follow it to come up with ideas in order to meet the demands of what their consumers want. Trend analysis is used to predict future events based on events happening in the present or the past. While conducting a trend analysis, marketers are actually conducting a situational analysis. A situation analysis, according to the American Marketing Association (AMA), is “the systematic collection and study of past and present data to identify trends, forces, and conditions with the potential to influence the performance of the business and the choice of appropriate strategies.” The situation analysis involves a thorough review of the industry, the market and the marketer’s competition. A thorough analysis of the situation in which the firm finds itself serves as the basis for identifying opportunities to satisfy unfulfilled customer needs. In addition to identifying the customer needs, the firm must understand its own capabilities and the environment in which it is operating. The situational analysis can be viewed as the analysis...

The paper evaluates, identifies and assesses recent future and current trends affecting the criminal justice system. Lastly, it defines the values of the system in a changing society. Recent trends affecting the criminal justice system are related to gender and racial barriers. According to Roslyn Muraskin and Albert R. Roberts (2009 ), assessments of statuses of women and minorities in police work shows that there are obstacles in official and informal structures of police work organizations related to gender and race. Regardless of assessment studies, which show that women are effective patrol officers, organizational principles of law enforcement has repelled the combination of women into patrol officers for more than 20 years. There are three kinds of organizational resistance to slowing down staffing and preservation of female patrol officers. The first organizational resistance is called Technical Resistance. Technical Resistance comprises of failure to adjust police uniforms, gear, and tools sufficiently for women, and constant issues on physical testing, and firearms during their drills, and preperations. The second organizational resistance is named Political and Cultural Resistance. According to Roslyn Muraskin...

...RECOMMENDER SYSTEMS MAN562 February 18, 2015 Abstract. In the recent years, the web searches have witnessed a dramatic change where the people have had so much on the internet such that the searches have become extremely difficult. The users of the internet on a regular basis have found it difficult to use and find the required information. There has been also the claim that some of the data sources are unpopular which makes the finding of the information very difficult. The personal recommender system is responsible for building the gap between the objects and the users. The system recommends to the users the areas they might be interested in during browsing. The system is responsible for solving the problem that is being experienced today of information overload (Hang, Hsiao, 2013). There are different algorithms, and they are responsible for producing the different systems. There is the system that collaborates and filters, the system that is based on content, the hybrid system, and the structure based system. All the four systems are determined by the different algorithms operating in each (Pu, Chen, & Hu, 2012). Introduction This recommender system is a subclass of the information filtering system that is responsible for predicting and rating the weight of an item as per the user requirements. In the recent years, the systems have become extremely...

...Business Communication Trends Simone N. Gary COM/285 August 30, 2010 Gary Smith Business Communication Trends Communication plays a very important role in an organization. In fact, it is said to be the life wire of the organization. Nothing in the universe, human or otherwise, that does not communicate; though the means of communication may be very different. Communication is an essential component for a business to be successful. “Without a good line of communication mistakes will be made that could cost the company wasted time, wasted effort, lost goodwill, and legal issues” (Locker & Kienzler, 2008). New discoveries within the technological world are made every day. These changes are causing businesses to upgrade quickly and adjust to the new technology. One of the major changes is communication. Businesses are now communicating though social-networking tools, portable media players, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and cell phones. Communication helps me manage daily activities. I am employed as a financial coordinator for Fresenius Medical Care. Upon my arrival at work I set up my computer with needed programs to assist my patients. My position requires that I travel to several facilities within Texas on a daily basis, so my employer communicates with me via email, instant messenger, or my company cell phone. Without these lines of communication within my company, I would not have access to vital information to perform my job. “The...

...Marketing Strategy Part A: (1) Key Social-Cultural trends in Hong Kong over the past decade. Hong Kong is a special administrative region of China. It is densely populated with an advanced capitalist system. Key events having cultural and social effects include the handover to China, SARS and the emergence of China as an economic power. The CIA lists Hong Kong as having one of the slowest growing populations in the world, ranked 155 with a growth rate of 0.504% per annum. It has one of the highest life expectancies ( 81.86 years, ranked 6), has very low birth rates ( 7224 births/ thousand – ranked 224) and low infant mortality rates. The ratio of men to women has changed over the past decade. In 1999 49.4% of the population was male but this figure had decreased to 47.7% by 2009 ( The Census and Statistics Department ). As a practical matter, these trends stand to complicate the prospect of maintaining rapid economic growth- perhaps severely ( Eberstadt 2007 ). Economically, Hong Kong is still a major financial centre and a leading gateway into China. However, Hong Kong’s economic interaction with the Chinese mainland has grown deeper and broader over the last 10 years, increasing the city’s economic connections with China ( Martin 2007 ). Current economic and trade dynamics have raised concerns that Hong Kong’s relationship with China will shift in the long run from one of synergy to full intergration, possibly undermining the HKSAR’s “high degree of autonomy”...

...involvement in the area dates back to 1949 when he participated in the first disaster field studies in the National Opinion Research Centre (NORC) team. Quarantelli is also author and/or editor of 29 books as well as author of 101 chapters in books, 114 articles and 150 other publications mostly on disaster topics. The article chosen for this assignment was published in The Journal of Contingencies and Crisis Management (JCCM), in December 1996. JCCM is a peer-reviewed academic journal that covers all theoretical and practical aspects relating to crisis management and published by Blackwell. 2.0 ARTICLE SUMMARY The article assumes two master trends, industrialisation and urbanisation. The author discusses the likely negative and positive affects that will emanate from these trends at some stage in the future. The first trend, industrialisation, with its ever increasing development of technology, is expanding rapidly and this article provides examples on the advances in both computer technology and bio-engineering. Governments, industry and societies have an ever increasing dependence, not only on computer technology, but the linkages to other technologies and massive networks that have been created. This dependence will magnify future disasters and turn some minor emergencies into major crisis. The advancement in bio-engineering has the potential to create all kinds of disastrous consequences. Quarantelli states, “that there can and will, be the creation, or escape...
