Annotated Bibliography on Death Penalty Gross, Samuel R. “The Death Penalty, Public Opinion, and Politics in the United States.” . Louis ULJ 62 (2017): 763. Samuel Gross researched in 2017 on the public opinion held by Americans concerning the idea of death penalty in the states. After conducting research from several sources, Gross found the hidden details of death penalty idea. Gross came to learn that the execution was based on luck and not aimed at bringing a solution to the crime rate issue. The article provides information on the need to stop death penalty application in the US. Hurley, Connor N. “A Measured Approach to the Death Penalty.” (2018). Death penalty has been applied without substantial evidence to support its effectiveness. Hurley came up with a measured approach in 2018 to assess the effectiveness of death penalty. Hurley recognizes the association between opposition of death penalty and religious beliefs but finds out that the process is mulled by several problems. The article by Hurley is important in showing the weaknesses associated with the death penalty process. Moore, Zachary.…

Forms of government Communism Living under a communist government is both advantageous and disadvantageous. The advantage is that the government can create massive industrial power and other projects since economic resources can be mobilized quickly and on a large scale. However, communism eliminates the free market; the law of supply and demand gets defied since the government that sets prices. That way, the planners fail to get feedback about the type of needs of the people and therefore lack a guideline on how to improve their services. Socialism Living under a socialist government gives one a sense of responsibility. In this type of government, everyone in society receives a share of production according to the contribution they made towards it. There is no chance of exploitation as profits get shared according to individual contribution. Living under a socialist government also eliminates poverty since there is an equal distribution on social amenities such as health facilities and education institution. However, a socialist government has a lot of power, and there are chances of the leaders abusing the position and power for…
Vague constitutions The constitution of the United States established the national and common laws and also guaranteed fundamental rights for citizens. A constitution is vague for American citizens when they do not understand the laws regulated, prohibited conduct, and how punishment is imposed. Vagueness can be seen when the rules or rights have a broad language and is not clearly defined anywhere. Constitutional uncertainty can be helpful or a disadvantage to the people, especially in decision making (Williams, 2017). Vagueness extends into two clauses in the fifth and fourteenth amendments of the constitution. Vague constitutions have the following advantages, and it encourages cooperation amongst political leaders. Political leaders work together to determine specific clauses through negotiation to ensure a democratic process. The vague constitution easily adapts to changes, and the world is changing a particular constitution rapidly can create problems for social and political circumstances (Maxwell, 2013). Vagueness helps to prevent arbitrary enforcement of the laws; this is the decisions and rules that are based on justice; the disadvantage of constitutional vagueness is used to nullify specific criminal laws and…
Early Theories and Government Operations Abstract Modern-day operations are defined by a specific consideration on better systems that help identify critical processes that help establish a strong change development. The level of management across different situations is determined based on different approaches that identify better measures for a reliable system and implementation of better performance. Classical management systems have provided an understanding of how various government agencies operate. Various ancient theorists implemented different strategies regarding management to be adopted. Therefore, it is essential to help define a strong change process that can be defined in improving change development. The United States constitution and articles of confederations have been critical in determining the level of engagement and the limits that individuals have as well as the government in determining better change. Theorists such as Max Weber, Frederick Taylor, and John Gantt developed different classical theories that focused on promoting organizational performance. These theories have transformed over the years, which present a well-defined system for successful change. Some of the modern operations and staffing have implemented specific guidelines adopted from these theorists.…
The Crucible review When things get bad, some people think it’s best to run away from their problems rather than face them. Some people would rather die for something they strongly believe in than lie to save their life. The Crucible is a play by Arthur Miller that makes you ask yourself these questions. It is a play written in 1952 about the real Salem witch trials. In the play, people of the Salem village are accused of witchcraft because of a particular character that is trying to blame “witches” when she is caught doing something she isn’t supposed to. At the end of The Crucible, Abigail flees Salem to escape the punishments for her fraud, and John Proctor is facing the death penalty for a crime he did not commit. The crime being witchery or witchcraft.

I believe that Proctor and Elizabeth made the…

A case between Mather an estate broker and Bowen, the owner of the estate From my analysis of the case below, whereby it’s all about an estate broker who is Mather and an estate owner who is Bowen, Bowen, the estate broker advertises an enterprise from which he issues brochure stating that brokers and prospective tenants would be registered and including a schedule of commissions. It is this where Bowen and Mather come to sign a contract where Mather alleged that in December 1995, she called Bowen via a telephone call that she wished to bring a prospective tenant. In the potential phone call, Bowen acknowledged that Mather would receive a broker’s commission when the CRC leased the premises. It is there afterward where we come to see Mather bringing the CRC representative to view the property. Also, they later completed Bowen’s client-broker registration form, which proved Mather as the broker. With Bowen signing the form identifying himself as the lessor, two weeks later, after the trade agreement, CRC submitted a written lease offer that identified Mather as broker…
Explanation of different information systems From a computer science point of view, an information system is an integration of different components working together to produce information. There are various components that are in an information system. These components can be identified through the use of a five-component framework. This is a model of the component that a system entails. From this framework, the components are; computer hardware, software, data, instructions, and users. Through the integration of these components, there is a production of a system. To analyses the component, the hardware and users are the outermost components of the system. Software and instructions are a procedure that is used to run an operation. In this, the software instructs hardware while directive instructs users. Data is the connecting component that connects a computer and humans. When all these components work together, useful information is produced that can be used to solve problems in real life. During the development of an information system, the purpose is first defined, and through it, the nature of the system is determined. Computer hardware includes keyboards,…
battle between the Army and the Navy when it came to aviation There was a battle between the Army and the Navy when it came to aviation. Many perceived aviation as an addition to what was currently in operation in the Army and the Navy. There were a select few who believed that the airplane would take the place of the battlefleet. The United States needed to be ready for any eventualities, and aviation was going to put the country in a better position in preparation for another war if necessary. The military started buying planes early in the 1900s because they acknowledged the potential use of aviation in the battlefield (The Big Picture: Fifty years of aviation, 2008). The military used its personnel to tests the planes and improvised the airplanes by adding bombs and machine guns (The Big Picture: Fifty years of aviation, 2008). The use of airplanes saw the birth of the aeronautical engineering profession and the development of helicopters during that period (The Big Picture: Fifty years of aviation, 2008). Aviation was introduced to the…
