There is also the issue of whether resolving the conflict between the two opposing sides will solve the problem the policy seeks to resolve. The risk is merely shifted to another population with the potential it will increase the safety of the overall population. Thus the policy as it was initially drafted, no matter how it plays out, the risk for some will continue for thousands of years. Yet a policy that bring about a solution that reforms the energy production would have been better suitable since it eliminates ‘new’ risk. This again contradicts the principles of US and Muskagee society. While the American government and principle usually far away from the preventive attitude, Muskogee, as Martin observed, were a cautious group especially considering their devotion to balance. It is was highly unlikely that the Muskogee would find themselves in a similar. Provided that the externalities came from outside sources such large imbalances would never be tolerated in Muskogee society.

    In the case of Franchise Bd. of California v. Hyatt, the defendant stated that he had moved from California to Nevada in the year 1991, but the state of California claims he actually moved in 1992, therefore, owes taxes for the year of 1991. The courts ultimately ruled in favor of Hyatt, in a five to two division, who was awarded over 500 million fees. The decision leaves behind the idea that state courts can hear lawsuits over from other states, but limits awards to penalties a plaintiff could win against his own state officials. In this case, Hyatt accused California tax authorities of crossing into Nevada and rummaging around in his private affairs to try and prove he was still a resident of California. ”But that is not so in respect to…

    Imagine a world where there weren’t consequences to the decisions that have been made regarding the “discovery” of the Americas and the unethical treatment made towards the Native Americans. Would the indigenous people have more rights? Would they be more successful as a nation now without the involvement of the white man? Surely the answer would be yes, however it is too late to ask ourselves questions like that. This essay will look at two court cases described in Walter Echo-Hawk’s book, In the Courts of the Conqueror, a book that details ten of the most negatively impactful court cases in Unites States history regarding the treatment of Native Americans and how they are still being impacted to this very day by the rulings of those cases.…

So how did they have to fight diversity at home, well being the time and age of America we still had not changed much in the way of racism and bias-ism.

    It is the purpose of governmental power to police the freedoms of the citizens that they represent, although this did not take place during the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. Bill Clinton made an apology public in 1997 directed toward the families directly affected and those who survived this study in Tuskegee which disrespected the foundation of human rights. Article 2 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights offers freedom from intolerance and Article 5 states "No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment" These primitive freedoms were taken from all subjects involved in the Tuskegee Syphilis Study. Those responsible endorsed impoverished and uneducated African American men to take place by…

    The treatment of human subjects in research has evolved dramatically over the past century. Society has witnessed maltreatment and abuse, and in response, has pushed for oversight and ethical standards for scientific study.

    Indentured servants were individuals who sold themselves, as a form of labor for a or a certain amount of time. The indentures were often shoemakers, plumbers, clerks, weavers, painters, and all sorts of workers. This started in England, because they wanted more people to go into the new world and start colonies over there so they offered to pay for the trip, and if the indentured servants didn 't like staying over there, England would pay for their trip to come back as well. Most workers in England thought they could gain more money and live a better life in the new world than it England. They hoped to succeed in the new world and be better off than when they were I England, so many became indentured servants.…

    There is a case study of civil rights and the deliberate pace of change in the Birkland textbook (pp. 96–102).

Clause 1: Black Codes From 1865 to 1866 a series of laws none as Black Codes and Pig Laws were passed to criminalize and suppress African Americans. For instance every southern state contained some kind of Vagrancy Law that required blacks to sign a labor contract for a white man every year.

    In studying the essay “Racism and Research: The Case of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study” written by Allan M. Brandt, it is easy to conclude that the Tuskegee study was founded entirely off racism in the medical community and had no real relevance in the study of syphilis at the experiments’ conclusion. It became something much more useful to psychologists and sociologists to understand the “pathology of racism” rather than the “pathology of syphilis.” (Brandt, 1978, p. 21) The experiment led to the senseless death of dozens of people, hidden under the guise of research that became flimsier and flimsier as years passed and penicillin became widely available. Even after the experiment was finally terminated, the HEW Final Report completely ignored…
