Why Reforms Fail When it comes to change the police, most efforts fall short, which is contrary to what people may believe. This chapter shows sources of resistance when it comes to policing. Some of these resistances are not only from unions but also external. Proposed plans are usually done with politician’s support brought about by public outcries. Summarize are the obstacles hindering changes in police organizations that vary from the top to the bottom in terms of bureaucratic interests and different classifications of police resisting the changes. Resistance by mid-level and top managers Resistance by the mid-level managers has led to community-policing projects failure in various cities. This is because of the changes that would come with these decentralization schemes, and it leads to resistance, for instance, the reduction of the management layers. An example is when Chicago abolished the Captain rank; a lieutenant equated it to feeling like being “kicked in the teeth.” Being control in the field is a priority for these leaders. While managers seek to tighten bureaucratic hold on field officers, the reforms are seeing…
Literature review on Regular Family physicians Previous studies exhibit that preventive medicine and health lifestyle go hand in hand. According to research, preventive medicine can be regular testing, vaccination or immunization or even the advice of a doctor. Most researchers have shown that preventive medicine aids senior citizens in preventing the occurrence of some diseases and also the management of their health (Tricoli et al. 2017). According to Latimer and Mott (2015), regular tests, measurement of body weight and blood pressure, advice on diets, immunization of adults and children promotes a healthy living lifestyle. Regular Family physicians should consider these preventive services as a proper approach to healthy living for old aged people. Most studies explain that family physicians must control the eating preferences of the old aged citizen to prolong their life expectancy (Vadaparampil et al., 2014). Similarly, research concludes that preventive care for patients should be based on the ages. Research has found significant evidence that preventive medicine and health living for senior citizens are mandatory for developed and developing countries.

Form medical diagnoses to mental and physical health, there can be many ways how video games are in the health of humans today. From ADHD medical diagnoses using virtual reality experiment, to how video games affect mental health such as aggression, and how video games can affect physical health in a good way such as exercising, [WU4] video games can really make an impact on human health.

How the State and Its Leader Attempt To Impede Citizens from Exercising Their Rights The definition of tyranny is an aristocratic leadership with a leader exerting authority regardless of legal restraints. Different kinds of totalitarian societies occurred in the past, where the rulers would regulate every aspect of the life of the citizens. In this study, the author provides a good illustration of the famous Soviet Union dictator, Joseph Stalin. He ruled the Soviet Union for over twenty years. In the discussion, the author offers a description of how leaders from the state endeavor confining the governed citizens from exercising individual rights in culminating autocracy in contemporary societies. Most rulers employ intimidation together with terror in ruling the citizens. Such contributes to scare and fear among the opposition members of the administration. The opposing persons fear that they may be held accountable for any undesirable occurrences in their areas or anywhere near the public places. If the government victimizes its people, then the moral foundations for authority and law deteriorate. Magstadt (2017) argues that the wrong kinds of political comportment…

Modern Day Slavery Slavery can be defined as the state of exploiting an individual’s labor without their willingness. To as late as 2007, slavery was still allowed in some countries. The practice of slavery could be seen as a way of a particular group of people exercising dominion over another. For example, captives of war used to work as slaves and would be traded by their masters for money and property. The slavery trade was regulated by a series of laws which were majorly aimed at creating understanding between the slave traders and not necessarily on protecting the rights of the slaves. Despite the outlawing of slavery, the practice has continued to exist in modern-day forms, and little has been done to prevent it. Modern slavery is also referred to as contemporary slavery or neo-colonialism and the estimates of the current number of slaves vary depending on the definition of slavery. The acts of modern slavery include human trafficking where victims are exposed to work for little or no pay and massive disrespect of human rights. Child Labor A…
Ethical Dilemma Ethical dilemmas are a common occurrence not only in the field of healthcare but also in their day-to-day lives. The occurrence of such moments in society brings out the inherent conflicts in rights and value, which may, at times, lead to tension between individuals or community groups. One such event once occurred to me. One of my very closest friends, who I will refer to as J.C., once disclosed to me that she had been having symptoms of what she suspected to be an STI. J.C. was confident enough to disclose this to me since she knew I had good medical knowledge and that I could offer her advice on what healthcare actions to take. Moreover, J.C. and I had grown up together for a good part of our lives. The two of us were virtually best friends. Our parents and other family members also knew each other as we had been in several family gatherings together in the past. After disclosing her condition, I advised J.C. to get tested at the local clinic. The results showed that…
RACIAL DISCRIMINATION AGAINST PEOPLE OF COLOR DURING BOOKING OF AIRBNBS CMN Airbnb is a sharing economy enterprise that was founded in 2008 to give travelers a local experience and emergence into the community during their trips by allowing locals to provide accommodation in their homes rather than booking hotels. It also empowers people around the world by allowing them to become hospitality entrepreneurs, therefore benefitting all shareholders – the guests, hosts, the airbnb organization as well as the involved communities. Despite Airbnb being a platform for multiple stakeholders to benefit from, there have been several ethical and social concerns surrounding complaints received from people of color reporting multiple instances of perceived and/or racial discrimination and seclusion while booking or utilizing the company’s services. This has led to the filing of multiple law suits against the organization as well as individual hosts with the former attempting to make reforms in its policies to demonstrate its support for diversity and inclusion. This case study aims to provide insight into the ethical issues surrounding the perceived discrimination and/or discrimination faced by people of…
