Citizenship is hard to come by for immigrants currently living in the United States. Immigrants, whether here illegally or not, make up for about thirty-five million of the population. Each individual or family came to the United States for their own reasons. Some left their own country due to war or hard times while others better lives. The immigrants who are already in the United States have an opportunity to become a citizen, but the process may take years. Should […]

The conception of who is has changed over time, including three major times periods from 1865 to 1900, 1900 to 1950, and from 1950 to the present. The time after the […]
Introduction During the last century, the concept of citizenship has witnessed a growing interest after it almost went out of vogue. A plethora of literature during this period has been written during this period which has led to it becoming a ‘cluster concept’ by interaction of other similar concepts. This body of literature runs on the same undercurrent of redefining citizenship owing to the changed circumstances of its return. Earlier, the concept of citizenship was state-centric. Previously states attempted to […]
The Fourteenth Amendment was passed post-civil war on July 28, 1868. It states, all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside (Fourteenth). When it says all this is not excluding any individual based on their skin color, religious beliefs or background. This does not apply to illegal immigrants therefore, it does not make sense that President Trump uses these false […]

The topic that I chose to write about is the Cold War. This war was between the USA “Free World” and the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) “communist Block” lasted from 1947 to 1991. Basically, there were tensions between the two nations because they were both feeling threatened by each other’s advances in nuclear weapons. For all of the years that we were in the cold war, it was just a big competition between the two. Both made propaganda […]
On September 30, 2018 California Senate Bill 822 was signed into law. The law effectively established statewide net neutrality laws modeled on federal regulations which were overturned by the FCC’s Restoring Internet Freedom Order in December of 2017. This is yet another step in an ongoing battle to establish laws that would prevent Internet Service Providers (ISPs) from discriminating against data from specific sources in an online environment. Net neutrality continues to be an evolving concept, and despite broad support […]
Net neutrality is the principle that Internet service providers treat all data on the Internet equally, and not discriminate or charge differently by user, content, website, platform, application, type of attached equipment, or method of communication [1]. The rules, enacted by the administration of President Barack Obama in 2015, prohibited internet providers from charging more for certain content or from giving preferential treatment to certain websites. The original rules laid out a regulatory plan that addressed a rapidly changing internet. […]
Net Neutrality Net neutrality is a term first used by Tim Wu, a media law professor of Columbia University. It is the concept that internet service providers should regard all media and content equally. This includes being unable to block sites and users, slow down traffic or charge more for certain platforms. Users are still able to modify what content they are exposed to and filtration of sensitive content is still in place for minors. These regulations exist to prevent […]
Net Neutrality is the belief that internet service providers do not charge for specific sites but treat all internet usage data equally. This belief is that internet service providers have to treat all online usage data the same, they cannot block, slow down or charge you for visiting specific sites. But recently the Federal Communications Commission, run by Ajit Pai, is planning to make net neutrality a thing of the past. This would null the Net Neutrality rules passed by […]
Net neutrality is the concept that all data on an online network should be treated equally, where internet service providers (ISP’s) would be prohibited from blocking, slowing down, or speeding up the delivery of online data as they choose. (The Debate Over Net Neutrality) In the U.S. however, ISP’s want to remove this pre-existing concept in order to make more money for their companies. How would they do this? one might ask. The American Civil Liberties Union states, New Technologies […]
The battle of the Cold War was the first time in U.S. history in which military technology had developed to a point that mutual annihilation was ensured. The presence of two global superpowers, each diametrically opposed to the other on the basis of political belief meant that there had to be a new way of dealing with foreign affairs. Pure isolationism would not work because of Soviet leaders and their desire to actively export their brand of communism to the […]
Many people believe the Cold War was an actual war however, this war was an event that included a sequence of divergent competitions. The Cold War was caused by several events, which took place at the Yalta conference. This conference lead to the Cold War by allowing the Soviet Union to have control over the Eastern Europe. The Europeans felt that the Soviets were going to impose in the communist systems on all the countries they possibly could. The U.S. […]
The FCC derives its authority from the Federal Communications Act, and the law does not say anything about the power to tell internet providers how they can or can’t distribute content. If there is really going to be a net-neutrality mandate, it would have to come from Congress. Net neutrality is the principle that internet providers should make all content available at the same speed. That doesn’t mean loading Netflix on a 25-megabits-per-second connection just as quickly as on a […]

The first and perhaps most important aspect of this scenario refers to the distractions attributed to the use of private electronic devices (PEDs) in the workplace. The rampant use of these devices between patient checks can lead to disastrous consequences. Papadakos (2013) describes the use of these devices in healthcare settings as a significant challenge towards professional engagement with peers and patients. Additionally, the rampant use of the PEDs also poses a risk to patient safety. For example, a nurse […]
Though George Orwell’s 1984 may seem shockingly unrealistic, sadly enough, the inhumane treatment and violations of human rights found in the novel occur today around the world, such as in Qatar.

According to Lewis and Skutch, Qatar occupies 4,412 square miles that contains petroleum and natural gas, which is the country’s main source of income.

He is a man who is far more concerned with himself and his own personal gains, rather than with the ultimate well-being of the nation. Furthermore, President Trump has issued […]
Imagine a world where there were no rules and everyone lived for themselves! We would probably look like something out of a syfy movie depicting life around the caveman times. Social order is needed in order for a group of people to live, work or just exit around each other. If not, chaos and disruption will be the norm because everyone would feel that they can do what they want and there isn’t any kind of consequences for doing so. […]
