    Fair and effective governance are crucial components to preventing civil strife within any modern society. Unfortunately, in most instances where gross negligence and misappropriation of government resources occurs, the sovereign state will typically lose its ability to effectively conduct policy at nearly every level of infrastructure. In the end, the Hoi Polloi are often the ones who bear the largest brunt of the instability generated by those who mismanaged a nation’s available resources. The research presented in this chapter will portray corruption as the solvent that ultimately dissolves the bond of a functioning society; eventually, continual graft will lead to lawlessness, which in the end, leads to unlawful yet, lucrative moneymaking ventures, such as wildlife trafficking.…

    Looking at the example above, if one’s soul both desires for the drink and rationally rejects it, then it cannot be that it is with the ‘whole soul’ that it does so, but in different parts, that is, the appetitive and rational parts. Reconstructing Socrates’ argument, i) no one intentionally goes toward the worse, ii) given any two courses of action, one can always determine which action is better and worse, therefore, iii) it is possible that someone does G although he thinks Fing is better,…

In one of such episodes, the Czech Gordon Ramsay was brave enough to visit an…
