The New Social Contract: America's Journey from Welfare State to Police State
ISBN: 9780275952396 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. According to the Justice Department's National Crime Survey, the crime rate in the United States is lower today than it was when Nixon was in the White House. In spite of this, political leaders demand nationwide prison construction as a response to the war on drugs and to accommodate the results of the new three strikes law.

The Shrinking American Middle Class: The Social and Cultural Implications of Growing Inequality
ISBN: 9781349441044 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The United States lost one third of its factory jobs in the past decade as jobs were outsourced offshore, mostly to Asia. Jobs that require a college degree are next to go. China will award six times as many degrees this year as they did ten years ago and any job that can be digitized will be 'tradable'. Estimates of the number of vulnerable jobs range from a low 11 million to a staggering 56 million 'middle class' jobs. The median United States household income has already dropped by seven percent since 2000 and without dramatic changes in the American workforce that trend will become a...

The Conscience of the Campus: Case Studies in Moral Reasoning Among Today's College Students
ISBN: 9780275972080 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The conscience of today's college students is guided by the personal moral values that underlie its concept of justice. College professors frequently avoid discussions of moral values, fearful of either the deconstructionist's criticism or the alleged wall of separation between church and state. Regardless of their reasons, they tend to argue that today's students have no interest in discussing abstract concepts of morality. The Daveys argue that given the right case studies of moral dilemmas, today's college students will enthusiastically share and discuss their own moral values, learn to...

The Bill of Rights Today: Constitutional Limits on the Powers of Government
ISBN: 9780761840756 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The proper role of the government operating in a free society and regulating an individual's behavior is a subject that can provoke heated political debate. There is an ongoing discussion among the nine Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court about the fundamental values that are reflected in the words of the Bill of Rights. If we contrast the interpretation of the Bill of Rights presented by the Earl Warren Court four decades ago with the more recent decisions handed down by the Rehnquist and Roberts Court, we cannot avoid the conclusion that there has been a substantial change in the rights...

In the last two decades there has been an unprecedented increase in the use of imprisonment in the United States. This expansion of the imprisonment rate did not happen in the other Western democracies and, more importantly, it happened very unevenly among the fifty states. Professor Davey examines the change in the rate of imprisonment in relationship to the crime rate as well as six other socio-economic variables. Davey then examines a number of states in detail to assess the key factors that resulted in increased imprisonment. Professor Davey concludes from the analyses that law and...
