In American society, governments create law to enable individuals to live freely and with fairness. It functions as a catalyst for civilized living. In American business, laws provide a basis for fair trade and commerce and allow structured business relations. American government creates laws to resolve domestic and foreign legal disputes both public and private. In the marketing industry, law plays a pivotal role in regulating both civil and criminal liability to consumers. In both society and business, law serves both essential functions and an important role. The function of law in American society is to provide individuals with the legal ability to live their lives with fairness and equality. By having a central controlling authority, such as local, state, and federal government, individuals have a specific pre-determined set of agreed-upon rights, responsibilities, and consequences (Melvin, 2011). These pre-determined agreed-upon rights, responsibilities, and consequences include the structure of government, the powers entrusted to government, and the rights of individuals within that government. Three examples of an individual’s governing law within American society are constitutional law, statutory law, and common law. Government constantly monitors...

Existing enterprises went through stages of deployment of the Internet, most of which had minimal impact on their work. Simply put, between 1994 and 1998, managers went through a period of discovery, creating their first Web sites, populating them with information about their firms, products, and services, and providing contact information. Initially, it started with providing information about company’s products on Internet, the look and feel of which mirrored the printed brochures of the 1980’s and early 1990’s.
