Abstract
This paper discusses the history of the draft to the United States' Army. It particularly focuses on how the draft became an issue of debate in 2004 with regards to the War in Iraq. The paper discusses the reasons that the American public is failing to support the military presence in Iraq and how this public opinion affects whether or not there will be a draft for the present war.

From the Paper
"Vennochi (2006) states "either this war is worth every citizen's effort, or it's not worth any soldier's life" (para. 15). Through this statement it is evident that as a nation the people must support the troops by all means possible if there is ever to be an end to the conflict that took the lives of those on 9-11 and will, as promised, take greater numbers of Americans, if America does not act aggressively. Therefore, while public opinion may not support the reinstatement of the draft and support for the troops would be even less likely if a draft became a reality once again, the fact that a draft is needed at this time is significantly evident."

Gun Control in America, 2008.
This paper discusses why gun control is needed in America.

Abstract
In this article, the writer argues that the nation's gun laws need to be modified in such a way that those with mental debilities cannot access firearms - while at the same time ensuring that law-abiding citizens can still purchase guns for their own protection (and for the protection of their family) as long as they follow proper procedure. The writer further asserts that, if these things are done, there is every hope that future tragedies like the one at Virginia Tech can to be avoided.

From the Paper
"Significantly, the U.S. Department of State proudly reminds visitors to its official web site that crimes involving rape, sexual assault, aggravated assault, burglary, and motor vehicle theft have all dropped fairly precipitously since the early 1990s; in fact, Americans of every racial and ethnic affiliation, as well as Americans of every socio-economic level, are less likely to be victims of crime today than they were a decade-plus ago. Adding to the good news, the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) has shown remarkable progress in the realm of violent crime; to wit, since 1994, the UCR has recorded a decline of more than one-third in violent crime across America. As one last point, the Bureau of Justice Statistics released a cross-national study in 2004 that indicated how America, rather shockingly, now has the same level of crime as relatively placid nations like England and Wales. By most every conceivable measurement, America is a safer nation today than it has been at most any time in its recent past."
"So why then, with this shower of good news, is gun control such an issue of pressing importance? The simple reason is that America has been forced to come to grips with a series of terrifying mass-shootings - shootings that have, far too often, taken place on college, university, high school or even elementary school campuses."

"When Affirmative Action was White", 2008.
A critical review of Ira Katznelson's, "When Affirmative Action was White".
1,447 words (approx. 5.8 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 48.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper examines the strengths and weaknesses of Ira Katznelson's book, "When Affirmative Action was White". The paper looks at the main idea of the book, some key supporting ideas or themes and the perspective the author assumes with regards to the historical record. The paper shows how although Katznelson presents a credible argument, his ideas are clearly biased.

From the Paper
"The primary focus of Katznelson's book is to argue that affirmative action is not something that emerged substantively in the 1960s but, rather, has its roots in the policy decisions of the 1930s and 1940s. Specifically, policies crafted in that seemingly long-ago time dealt with issues like welfare and work in ways that marginalized the overwhelming majority of African-Americans - and this marginalization is still be felt even today. Furthermore, the inequalities that ostensibly found their expression in the legislation of the period were largely the product of trying to please Southern Democrats; to put it another way, Democratic representatives of the American south bristled at any attempt to elevate the condition of the "negro" and many of their Northern colleagues (on both sides of the aisle, apparently) ably assisted them in efforts to thwart meaningful reform (Katznelson, X). In a real sense, Katznelson wants to emphasize how the struggles of the past remain very much the struggles of the present - and how affirmative action today is only incompletely dealing with the issue of racial inequality."

Use of Herbicides, 2008.
This paper looks at the history of the U.S. war on drugs, with specific attention devoted to the use of herbicides as an instrument to overcome Colombia's illicit drug trade.

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer outlines the controversial topic of aerial spraying or fumigation in Colombia as it pertains to efforts to destroy the country's illicit drug trade. To really understand the issue, however, the writer discusses the lengthy history of narcotics in Colombia, the history of the American war on drugs and the types of drugs that appear most prevalent in Colombia. From there, time is devoted to looking at the issue of aerial spraying, why it seemed like a good idea when first conceived, and precisely what impact it has had upon Colombia. In the final analysis, the writer maintains that aerial spraying seems superficially to be an effective means of thwarting the drug trafficking problem in Colombia, but it may simply be a needless distraction diverting resources and expertise away from worthwhile alternatives.

From the Paper
"The history of the war on drugs is a long and important one, but it is necessary first to place it within the context of the even longer history of Colombia as a major international distributor of illicit narcotics. To begin with, marijuana cultivation in Colombia first emerged during the initial decade of the twentieth century. By as early as the 1930s, some cultivation was taking place among the Costeno black population on Barranquilla and urban criminals located in this territory were routinely smoking marijuana. Additionally, during the course of the Second World War, hemp cultivation muscled its way to the forefront courtesy the growing demand for large-scale fiber production as one part of the much larger war effort. Finally, by the latter part of the 1960s and by the early 1970s, marijuana production in Colombia became a fairly huge and lucrative industry in response to a growing demand for such a good in the United States."

Living Between Two Cultures, 2008.
This paper looks at the issue of higher education for immigrants living in the United States and the related cultural aspects.

Abstract
In this document the writer discusses a psycho-educational program that is targeted at the foreign student population of American higher education institutions. The writer notes that these types of psycho-educational group programs are designed to help the foreign student population better integrate socially and culturally. Further, the writer points out that these types of dimensions are often overlooked by higher education institutions which typically concentrate on assistance with academic performance only. The writer maintains that since the numbers of foreign born students studying within the United States is expected to increase, improving their acculturation process performance can benefit not only the institution of higher learning but the US' international standing and reputation as well.

From the Paper
"The idea is that these students must also be culturally integrated as well as linguistically capable. If they are able to comprehend all aspects of navigating common experiences in the US such as going to the bank or post-office but still lack any type of effective social skills and awareness in the host culture then they will still remain effectively isolated. The structure of these programs are in large part responsible for their success for both majority and minority language speakers because the students are not separated from their native language nor expected to lose their cultural identity but are give the tools and the opportunity to gradually work in the host culture environment. For the foreign born student, because so much of the instruction of these cultural familiarization and acculturation programs is in their primary language they receive a much more comprehensive education regarding what it means to integrate. However, it should be noted that these types of programs are offered outside of any official academic program and typically are not offered for credit and thus do contribute to a student's workload with little concrete return other than peace of mind.

Low Self-Esteem and Teen Marijuana Use, 2008.
This paper discusses the connection between low self-esteem and the use of drugs, in particular marijuana.
1,200 words (approx. 4.8 pages), 10 sources, MLA, $ 41.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer discusses that teen use of illegal drugs such as marijuana is high, and appears to be on the increase, in the West. It is suggested that this is because many teens have poor self-esteem, and therefore they are likely to turn to destructive behaviours, such as using marijuana and other illicit substances. This essay draws on research to show that this is a valid explanation for the high incidence of marijuana use by teens in the West. The writer maintains that it seems very likely that low self-esteem can lead to substance abuse in teenagers. The writer concludes that increased use of marijuana among teens in the West is partly a result of the fact that many teens have poor self-esteem.

From the Paper
"Similar studies by other researchers have yielded similar results for girls. For example, several studies indicate that girls who have self-esteem and body image issues can turn to drugs. Unfortunately, such self-esteem and body image issues are wide spread in adolescent girls. One study showed that many girls go through a dramatic transition in early adolescence, and that this transition is characterized by issues around body image and low self-esteem. To make matters worse, research has turned up the unsurprising finding that girls with low self-esteem find it harder to cope with the usual stressors of adolescence. Similarly to the research with boys, researchers have found that pre-adolescent girls with low self-esteem are much likelier to abuse drugs by the time they reach the age of 15. Thus, the age of beginning to use drugs such as marijuana appears to be older than girls - but nevertheless, like boys, there seems to be a link between low self-esteem and marijuana and other illicit drug use."

Psychology of Drugs and Human Behavior, 2008.
This paper discusses whether psychoactive drug use is synonymous with dependence.
1,600 words (approx. 6.4 pages), 5 sources, APA, $ 52.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that psychoactive drugs act upon the human central nervous system, altering brain function and impacting on mood and behavior. The writer discusses that though some psychoactive drugs are legal and prescribed as medication, while some are illegal and are used as a form of recreation for users. The writer then points out that current research suggests that these drugs can sometimes lead to dependence and addiction issues. The writer also discusses that mood and behavior-altering drugs have therefore garnered significant media attention as harmful solutions to problems which could be solved through non-medicinal methods.

Introduction
Psychoactive Drugs: Theories of Addiction
Conclusion

From the Paper
"Though the researchers agree that this is true, they believe that psychoactive drug addiction is a real issue that has numerous causal factors. The most notable of these, according to Nesse and Berridge, is the tendency for psychoactive drugs to create a brain signal that creates a false indication of a huge fitness benefit. This then changes behavior propensities, increasing drug-seeking behaviours in frequency and displacing more adaptive behaviours. This issue is seen by the researchers as being part of an overall addiction modern society has to fitness-decreasing incentives such as video games and snack foods. Such addictions, Nesse and Berridge maintain, are a mismatch between our bodies and our modern environments, which causes behavioural and medical problems."

An Inconvenient Truth: Can Humanity Survive Global Warming?, 2008.
An outline of how humanity can survive global warming.
1,119 words (approx. 4.5 pages), 1 source, MLA, $ 38.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The following paper briefly outlines how humanity can survive global warming despite its obvious dangers to human beings. Most notably, the paper looks at how human beings contribute to climate change and thus are uniquely qualified among all the Earth's creatures to reverse the destructive trends that are taking place. In a related vein, the paper looks at how climate change threatens human life and the existence of other organisms residing on the planet. The author concludes that although we are at a pivotal moment in history - we can overcome the problems of today with a clear plan for tomorrow.

From the Paper
"To begin with, Gore's text emphasizes the vulnerability of the Earth upon which we live. Specifically, the Earth's atmosphere is notoriously thin - like a thin coat of varnish spread out over a classroom globe, As Carl Sagan once said (Gore, 22) - and that makes it extraordinarily vulnerable to cosmic forces and to anything humankind might inflict upon it. In particular, Gore argues that human industry is "thickening" the vulnerable atmosphere with carbon dioxide gases that are simply not permitting infrared radiation to escape out into the universe. As a result, the temperature on the Earth's surface is rising steadily, threatening the delicate equilibrium that has allowed human life (and other forms of life) to flourish for so long (Gore, 26-27). The question, then, of whether or not human beings can survive in spite of themselves seems fairly clear; to wit, if we can negatively affect the composition of the atmosphere with our huge manufacturing industries, then we can also positively change the composition of that same atmosphere by embracing environmentally-friendly practices. Seen in that light, human beings really can survive global warming insofar as it lies within our power to change atmospheric conditions for the better."

The Legalization of Marijuana, 2008.
A strong argument that the ban on marijuana is illogical, hence marijuana should be legalized.

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper offers three main reasons for the legalization of marijuana. The paper discusses its useful medicinal qualities that can relieve the suffering of many people and argues that the war on drugs is not working and is a waste of money. The paper contends further that banning marijuana violates the human rights of sick people. The paper claims that marijuana is banned for reasons that have more to do with history and politics than with any innate harmfulness.

From the Paper
"Marijuana has proven medical applications, and it is therefore time that Canada legalizes marijuana for medicinal purposes. Indeed, it seems that the medical value of marijuana is indisputable, as there are extremely reputable scientific testimonies in favour of the medical use of marijuana. For example, Lynn Zimmer, Ph.D. (associate professor of sociology at Queens College, University of New York) and John P. Morgan, M.D. (professor of pharmacology at the University of New York Medical School), conducted a metastudy utilizing every existing academic research paper on the medical properties of marijuana."

Conclusion

From the Paper
"Immigration and immigration reform are issues central the United States (U.S.) and will continue to be important because of the U.S.'s historical encouragement of immigration and its ongoing reliance on foreign labor crossing the border from its Southern neighbor Mexico. The U.S. has several lengthy border with its neighboring countries; primarily Canada and Mexico. Because of Canada's high standard of living and developed economy, illegal immigration across the border with that country is minimal and not considered a priority. However, Mexico is a developing market with a large population and a high rate of poverty and therefore its citizens consider crossing the border into the U.S. and working primarily in labor positions as an opportunity to improve their quality of lives."

The Mafia and Immigration, 2008.
This paper explores immigrants and their potential social connections to the mafia within the United States.

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper reveals that large formal organized networks of criminals that operate within a single city or a larger geographic region are often outcomes of immigration. The paper looks at the historical, immigrant background of the mafia within the United States. The paper shows how the defining characteristics of organized crime stem from exclusion from processes that are found within a normal social order.

From the Paper
"Immigration within the United States has tended to be regional and community-specific, where immigrants from specific ethnic populations are more likely to take up residence within the same region and form communities comprised of their native ethnic groups. These processes are used to help provide a sense of collective purpose within the immigrant population as these persons face a new and unfamiliar environment. The close community environment also helps the immigrants to maintain unique cultural traits and customs that may not exist within the new territory or within the cultures of the native population."

Is Wire-Tapping Constitutional?, 2008.
This paper argues that the wire-tapping program of the United States government is necessary in today's world.

Abstract
The paper examines the provisions of the United States Constitution as well as pertinent federal statutes that are affected by wire-tapping. The paper looks briefly at previous decisions of the United States Supreme Court vis-a-vis government wire-tapping. The paper argues that a solution to government wire-tapping is for a constitutional amendment to be passed authorizing its use - but only if specific criteria are satisfied. The paper then discusses the social implications of the proposed solution.

Outline:
Introduction
Statement of the Constitutional Issue
Research on the Issue: Federal Statutes and Court Precedents
Proposed Solution with Supporting Argument
Social Policy Implications of Proposed Solution

From the Paper
"The constitutional issue at the heart of the ongoing controversy over the government wire-tapping initiative comes down to Article II of the United States Constitution. Among other things, this article gives the President the power to serve as Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy as well as the authority to preside over the militia of the nation's states; he or she also has the power to make treaties and these treaties are binding as long as two-thirds of the Senate is in accord. In the overview, Article II appears to give the President considerable scope or latitude in the realm of national defense. With this in mind, it may be argued that the White House's wire-tapping initiative is validated by the explicit obligation the President has to protect the well-being of the nation in times of peril."

Abstract
The paper examines the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and looks at how the United States' information systems fail to meet the tests of universality and of platform and operating systems compatibility. The paper then looks at how border security and the war against bioterrorism have been facilitated by cutting-edge technologies that are compromised by the same interoperability issues. The paper concludes that the failings of the DHS is proof that a more streamlined, centralized data-gathering and data-exchange process is needed.

From the Paper
"A Government Accountability Office Study conducted in June of 2005 found many problems with the information system in place at the Department of Homeland Security - problems that clearly reveal logistical and planning problems that must be overcome both in the public and in the private realms if the terrorist threat is to be appreciably reduced. To begin with, if the DHS is to be held up as an example, the United States government has done a desultory job of putting in place universal information security practices and controls. Things like a proper risk assessment, security plan, a regime of security tests and evaluations, remedial action plans, and a structure for the continuity of operations have (in one way or another) fallen short of expectations or have simply been absent (Government Accountability Office, 2005)."

Should Illegal Immigrants be Deported?, 2008.

Abstract
The paper examines an article by Chelyen Davis, "State Looks at Dealing with Immigration," that looks at the illegal immigration scourge confronting the state of Virginia. The paper summarizes the article's key points and assesses the significance of the article to the broader discussion of whether illegal immigrants who break the law should be deported. The paper concludes that deportation will only be a viable option when the country's borders are safely secured.

From the Paper
"To begin with, Chelyen Davis' article entitled, "State looks at dealing with immigration," is a provocative look at the dangers undocumented immigrants pose to American society. Davis begins by looking at how an illegal immigrant, driving drunk and with a prior police record, struck and killed two girls recently in Virginia Beach, sparking widespread outrage and frustration that he had not been reported to the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement service some time earlier. The outcry was sufficiently impassioned that a task force was struck within the state of Virginia to look at how local police and sheriff's offices deal with immigration laws. More than that, concerned officials, under pressure from the general public, have vowed to look closely at what the state can actually do to enforce federal immigration law and also at how illegal aliens impact the state of Virginia."

Homeland Security, 2008.
A look at the work of The Homeland Security Department.

Abstract
This paper discusses the work of The Homeland Security Department - the specific federal agency charged with coordinating all manner of security measures to fight terrorism and to address other broad-based threats to public safety. The author reveals that the effectiveness of the strategy for homeland security is a matter for discussion, and how effective it has been is a matter of some controversy.

From the Paper
"The impetus for the passage of the law and for the creation of the Homeland Security Department was the same, that being the 9-11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon in 2001. The term "homeland security" became w3idely known after that event, and the phrase served as a symbol and a goal, the preservation of the security of the homeland. Homeland security then became a policy concept, leading to the decision by President George W. Bush to release his National Strategy for Homeland Security on July 15, 2002. At that time, the concept was defined as "a concerted national effort to prevent terrorist attacks within the United States, reduce America's vulnerability to terrorism, and minimize the damage and recover from attacks that do occur."

The Global Warming Debate, 2008.

Abstract
This paper discusses the various sources of justifications to act against greenhouse gases and carbon dioxide, as two leading causes of an irrefutable trend toward global warming. The paper discusses the views of the critics and skeptics against taking these steps and then looks at the views of those in favor of the proposed actions against global warming.

From the Paper
"When the great majority of scientists independently come to similar or supporting conclusions, however, it is usually a good bet that they are correct. It would appear that the over-whelming evidence supports the idea that we are experiencing global warming, that human activity is contributing to this warming and that we can't afford not to act. I would agree with Stevens that there is a wide range of opinions on how much impact global warming is having and on how much humans are contributing. From the articles I have read it seems that there is very little scientific evidence AGAINST the global warming scenario. Skeptics seem to be focusing on discrediting the global warming supporters, rather than proving that there is no warming or that no human impact exists."

Abstract
This paper provides the ethical background to Judith Jarvis Thomson's allegory of the violinist and the woman in regards to the right to life for pregnant mothers who need abortions in mortal circumstances. The paper discusses the arguments in Thomson's article, "A Defense of Abortion", and concludes that Thomson provides an ethically sound argument for abortion rights.

From the Paper
"In conclusion, the allegory of the violinist provides a rational and moral argument for abortion that takes the mother's life into account before the child within her. The immediate threat to life and the choice of keeping the mother alive is a valid argument, since she has not consciously disregard the child's life simply out of inconvenience. The premise of Thomson's logic resides on questioning the issue of murder for abortion, since the mother's life is just as valuable (if not more), than the unborn fetus that resides within her. In this manner, Thomson makes a rational and ethical argument through the premise of the violinist allegory in this article."

Gay Adoption, 2008.
This paper argues against the myth that gay adoptions are dangerous to children.

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
This paper explains that the opponents of rights for gays and lesbians claim that gays and lesbians are not merely unsuitable as potential adoptive parents but also entirely immoral. The author underscores that, overwhelmingly, the opposition to adoption by gays and lesbians is based on religious arguments. The paper relates that, although opponents of homosexual adoption have long tried to make a case that a child raised by a homosexual couple is at greater risk than a child raised by "straight" parents, serious research to support this is virtually non-existent. The author stresses that there is overwhelming scientific support, from such authorities as the American Psychological Association and the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, that gays are entirely suitable as adoptive parents.

From the Paper
"Despite these studies, there are bitter opponents of gay adoption, and it is notable that a tiny group of people remain dedicated to the idea that there is a "scientific" basis for opposition to gay adoption. One of the most credentialed opponents of gay adoption is Lynn Wardle, a professor of law at the Brigham Young University Law School. Wardle has been most vocal in custody disputes, in which he contends if a biological parent is found to be gay, this creates a rebuttable presumption that the parent is unfit and should therefore by denied custody."

Abstract
The paper discusses a research study that will focus on immigrants and their potential relationship with organized crime. The paper looks at the population to be assessed, the instrumentation to be used, the distribution and collection of the survey, protections for participants, limitations and finally, stereotypical assumptions of immigrants.

Outline:
Restatement of the Hypothesis

Population
Instrumentation
Data Distribution and Collection
Protections for Participants
Limitations and Assumptions of the Method
Summary

From the Paper
"The rationale of using a phenomenological assessment process in this study is based on the need to critically identify the social link between immigrants and organized crime. The emphasis on the social connection means that it is not possible to assess data collected from arrest statistics and other demographic information (Firestone, 1987; Ferrance, 2000). These sources can be used to supplement the research findings, as has been demonstrated in the literature review, but cannot be used as the primary source of information as these provide insufficient evidence towards proving a social connection (Wilson, 1984)."
