Literary Critique “Where Is the Love?” by the Black Eyed Peas is a useful literary piece as it explains the concept of social order in society. Primarily, the song emphasizes the experiences of people in everyday situations. For example, it reveals how discriminative people are towards each other. Notably, social order is a critical concept in sociology as it explores how people interact in the community. Primarily, neither is the modern or ancient societies nurture societal equity. In either case, people with power: political, social, and economic marginalize those living in resource-scarce areas leading to stigmatization. For example, in the U.S., minorities: immigrants, disabled, women, children, and the sick experience considerable instances of discrimination from the Whites. The inability of the government to enact relevant measures that promote humanity result in the suffering and pain of the minority groups. The song, “Where Is the Love?” is valuable for this analysis as it provides various concepts related to social order. Living in today’s society, it can be unpredictable what could happen.

Consensual Crimes Consensual crimes involve two or more persons who have consented to engage in any activity that is regarded as unlawful. Since both parties have shown willing consent, determining the victim and the person who has caused the harm cannot be proven, terming it as a victimless crime. Consensual crimes continue to elicit heated debate due to their nature and the fact that they are a controversial topic of morals. Example of these crimes includes prostitution, gambling, drug abuse, homosexuality and pornography. In my case, legalizing consensual crimes might be faced with several challenges, therefore not advised. First, the argument of legalizing consensual crimes is on the space of individual’s freedom (Albanese, 2014). Adults or people who have attained the age of consent are free to choose; therefore, they enjoy their democratic right to engage in such acts, as seen in the cases of prostitution and gambling. Criminalizing these act violate citizens’ freedom without offering protection from corresponding harm. Secondly, legalizing the consensual crimes would lead to the criminal justice system spending most of its funds persecuting the offenders…

In the quest to come up with solutions to minimize, prevent, and eradicate global warming and climate change, lies the challenge of the phenomenon of global warming denial. The phenomenon of global warming denial has taken center stage as one of the severe difficulties in combating the effects of global warming and climate change. Given that global warming and climate change should be a conversation of all nations, governments, international agencies, and every individual on the globe, different narratives have emerged over time (Riley et al., 2015).…
The human resources umbrella The human resources umbrella that resonates with me is – developing an ethical culture among the employees of the organization. The issue is- sexual harassment, which I have witnessed in my organization about a few years ago. One of the male employees from the marketing department was repeatedly sexually harassing a female employee of the sales department.
