Uncertainty In Law

Laws and policies exist at all levels of society; they are the foundation of how a business or a society functions. From personnel management to driving a car, laws and policies govern execution of these actions. In this paper, I will summarize a situation I encountered at work, and explain how it correlates to the content of Chapter One, (Bagley & Savage, 2010).

In this task, Customer of Legislation, I will discuss the five main acts of parliament that the legislations are made for the business. The legislation is a law, which there are five for businesses, which everyone must follow the law, however, the ideas of Laws in a business are made by the government to make sure customers of a business are protected from a business by the five Acts of Parliament. These Laws of parliament will make sure the Business follows the rules for customer’s protection purposes. However, if they don’t follow the rules, the customers could be harmed; the businesses must be honest to customers; the business must not take advantage of customers.

1. Explain the notion of “higher law,” by which the colonists felt they were entitled to certain “natural rights.” List these rights. Higher law is a moral or religious unwritten principle that is believed to be above the written law.

Criminal law is a construct of the government, enforced through tangible measures. In a democratic society, the government is elected by the citizens, and as such, laws are generally conceived with the aim to reflect whatever ethical or moral standards are presently acceptable. However, in order to be truly effective, some legislation must circumvent current sociological viewpoints in order to create laws that are genuinely in the best interests of society. This results in a delicate balancing act, as lawmakers attempt to weigh the views of the majority against the need for laws to be both reasoned and objective.

Conswella could not have said it any better! Those people who are arguing that the first amendment is not working anymore may be the same people who are taking advantage of this right. There will always be a gray area in law or even our rights due to our world constantly changing. However people need to understand that the,” gray area” is there for possible mistakes and or for the improvement of

In both developed and underdeveloped economies, there is a need to put regulations which ensure that profits are not abnormally earned at the expense of the innocent clients. It is therefore the mandate of the territorial authorities to put in place measures that introduce checks and balances in all trades. The respective companies or business must also follow the same suit lest they find themselves in the crossroads of law. However,

The issue of slavery became even more prominent throughout the major changes the nation faced post Civil War. Many books and personal narratives were published and passed down to generation after generation. Famous authors used their unique writing style and abilities to illustrate the harsh reality of slavery. The narrative of The Life of Frederick Douglass and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn were written to portray all Southerners as ignorant and inhumane beings. Both writers, Frederick Douglass and Mark Twain, became advocates for those slaves who could not speak out among the rest or publicize the truth themselves.

Philosophical thought provides the infrastructure that allows society to author moral laws. While morality may be the aim, other variables can cause these laws to become corrupt. The urge for power is one of many, recurring, variables that infect morality. During these times of ‘infection,’ society must contest those who oppose just laws. In order to shine a light on unjust laws, laws are bound to be broken. It is not only lawful to break unjust laws, but the duty of the people to speak up and be a voice for change. It is critical, during these times, to work towards equilibrium with the goal to change the law. Regardless of the circumstances, it is lawful to break unjust laws with the goal to make them just again.

It is imperative for tax professionals to understand the ethics environment of the practice. This paper is focused on the ethical responsibilities of tax professionals.

A republican government is a type of government where the people give the political authority. Basically, all power comes from the people. We hear the word republic every time we say the pledge of allegiance. The word republic comes from the Latin word res publica which means a form of government where the people have power instead of a ruler, lord, king etc. America is a republic, as written in the U.S. constitution, where the citizens give power to the government. Many argue that America is democratic but that is not what our Founders wrote.

It is often believed that the relationship between certainty and flexibility in judicial precedent has struck a fine line between being necessary and being precarious. The problem is that these two concepts of judicial precedent are seen as working against each other and not in tandem. There is proof, however, that as contrasting as they are on the surface they are actually working together to achieve one common goal.

Law and morality work together to guide our behavior; while law does it by punishing us if we do something wrong, morality does it through incentives. In their articles, both H.L.A Hart in “Positivism and the Separation of Law and Morals,” and Lon Fuller’s reply to professor Hart in “Positivism and Fidelity to Law,” discuss the concept of law post world war II Germany and their re-imagining of natural law as put forth by Gustav Radbruch’s theory. In this paper, I hope to show how both law and morality is needed to create just rules, more specifically drawing from the “grudge informer” case mentioned in Hart’s article. First, I will explain the dilemma of the “grudge informer” case and the contradicting theory laid down by Radbrunch’s.

One of the major aspects when discussing the future is how will the law be

There are several theories that try to explain the morality of the actions; however, two stand out. the first is deontology, and the other one is utilitarianism. The former follow the idea that the consequences of you action hold no importance in what we ought to do. But rather, some actions are morally wrong or good by itself. The latter follows an opposite view in which the consequences of an action are what it makes an action moral. Specially, if that action produce the greatest happiness over unhappiness. In this essay I will focus on two Utilitarianism ramifications, act utilitarianism and rule utilitarianism. They both agree that consequences must be the greatest factor in deciding what we ought to do. Nonetheless they have one big difference. Rule Utilitarianism generalize acts and recreate the consequences of a rule. If the consequences are ultimately favoring, then it is morally right. By way of contrast, Act Utilitarianism evaluate each action individually, and similar situation would have different outcomes depending on the situation. There is no universal rule unlike rule utilitarianism.

William O. Douglas said, “Common sense often makes good law.” Well that is what laws essentially are, rules and regulations that make sure common sense is followed. One could even say that laws are enforced ethics. Laws serve several roles and functions in business and society, and this paper will discuss those roles and functions.
