Global citizenship

Laws can be changed or introduced, why laws change because they need to keep up with the incidents that are happening in society today, instead of using the old laws that won’t strong impact our society. Because every citizen lives will change during the years and many statistics and incidents will change, so therefore the parliament has to change laws so that they could satisfy and keep up with society today. Laws are a system of rules that society is forced to obey and respect. They help…

Adolf Hitler, an Austrian-born German politician, was responsible for the annihilation of millions. Victims of the Holocaust were singled out because of their racial impurity, and differences of opinion. Millions where rounded up and shipped to concentration camps, and later to death camps. Those who disobeyed the law where imprisoned or sentenced to death. Some rebelled, while others complied. We are more likely to conform then to rebel to someone who is an authority figure with high status,…

The quote “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains” (Rousseau) doesn’t hold the same meaning it did when Rousseau originally wrote it, but it can still be applied to many facet’s in today’s life. Rousseau’s quote can be applied to many areas in our everyday lives, such as government restrictions, work, and social acceptance and norms. Every day in many aspects we face restrictions that stop us from doing something we may desire to do, but cannot because of regulations against it. Every…

Voting is considered one of the most important civic duties that a citizen may participate in. Initially, only wealthy white land owners could vote in this country, but as time passed more groups were granted the right to vote. Now, there is increasing debate as to whether convicted felons should be allowed the right to vote both during and after their sentencing. Many states have laws that prohibit this, but they have proved only to be detrimental to American democracy. Therefore, it is time…

There is no clear, cut and dry answer for the question “What makes a good president?” There are, however, certain shared characteristics that good leaders have shown to possess. Most people recognize these traits and while opinions may slightly differ, the vast majority of people incorporate such characteristics into their beliefs of what makes a successful president. A key example of this was made apparent to me when I brought up the discussion of what makes a good president with my mom.…

Citizenship can hold different meanings to everyone. It can symbolize responsibility, unity and initiative. When considering which factors that determine the “goodness” of a citizen, I am reminded of a quote by Albert Einstein which states, “Strange is our situation here on Earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that man is here for the sake of other men -…

For most of human history, people have spent their lives changing. Our ancestors lived very different lives from us, and our descendents are likely to also live different lives. However, sometimes change happens over a very long time, and one lifetime may not be enough experimenting with the world. There are many different ways to live today, but humans have settled into a single life without first seeing what else there is to do, and the pain of not knowing what the world has to offer can cause…

In the Mae Ngai report, the man who was deported was deported due to some crimes that he committed, even though he could have arrived through the front door (Ngai, 2014). He may have gone through the legal process for citizenship; it doesn 't deny it in the report. Racial profiling was a major issue in this as well, and Mr. Hernandez was looked down upon. The U.S., from a fairness perspective, doesn 't have the right to deport someone because of their race. “The legal racialization…
