else, society would fall apart. Burke describes, “In this choice of inheritance we have given to our frame of polity the image of a relation in blood, binding up the constitution of our country with our dearest domestic ties, adopting our fundamental laws into the bosom of our family affections…”(Burke 4). Crowns have been handed down the same bloodline for centuries. These monarchies are traditional and make up the country that they occupy. Burke voices that this political system of tradition…

common morality amongst the common people of the society. That common morality, Devlin claims, should be considered when applying the law on the citizens of the community, in other words, laws should be based on moral values of the society, thus moral incompetence should be considered as harm towards the society as a whole. On the other hand, Miller claims that the law should only intervene in a citizen’s life when actual physical harm is being done to another person, and when it comes to moral…

In today’s society, individuals are simply expected to be loyal citizens of their countries by adhering to their nation’s laws and paying annual federal taxes. Moreover, this notion has remained constant even throughout our revolutionizing history and has made the opportunity of equal rights for everyone regardless of gender or race seem almost unattainable. In Nobodies: Does Slavery Still Exist? by John Bowe and Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela, both authors expose the brutal sufferings…

The United States Constitution was established on September 17th, 1787. It currently stands as one of the most influential documents in American history. One of its most powerful aspects are the laws of the land that have been created to form structure and equality. These rules and commandments are what shape national government and give a basis for political hearings. If any of these amendments were to be taken out and/or replaced, then it would change the whole makeup of government and freedom…

The law set forth by Creon to dishonor Polyneices’ body and to put to death whoever tried to bury him was a justified law in the mind of Aristotle because the law came about during a military expedition and so Creon could rightfully decide life or death for those involved. It was not necessary for this law to be just due to Antigone and Polyneices not being seen as equal in the city of Thebes so regardless of what other citizens believed about the law, Creon could justify…

Sweatshops are business establishments where employees work long hours under poor conditions for low wages; sometimes employees are underage and work 60-100 hours per week. Sweatshops are a major part of people’s lives who work in third world countries. Overlooking age requirements, work conditions, and correct compensation that we find acceptable, people who live and work there do not think sweatshops are wrong; for people in developing countries, sweatshops are their best way of surviving.…

Lifestyle statutes are laws that protect an employee 's lawful off-duty conduct. California, Colorado, New York, and North Dakota have lifestyle statutes that protect employees for any lawful activity off-duty. In addition, Connecticut protects employees ' off-duty speech.

In criminal law it is understood that punishment is proportionate to the crime. If we impose a human rights framework within the criminal law, it is questionable whether any such punishment can be proportionate to crimes of such egregious nature. How can a proportionate response address such gross human right violations such as…

interest groups have become a well-organized entity who sole purpose is to affect the outcome of elections in their favor. In the attempt to keep judges accountable to various parties and their way of thinking and not within the U.S Constitution and the law, is what I believe is the foundation behind many political and financial pressures put upon our judges. With this being said, many American honestly believe that our judicial system already corrupt and its justices can be bought and some…
