I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal."(Martin Luther King Jr, 1963). This statement came from Martin Luther King Jr’s famous speech ‘I have a dream’. As one of the most powerful weapons contributing to the civil rights movement led by King, it motivated more people to fight hard for human rights. However, what is the human right? Not everyone can give an explicit definition

The focus of recruitment and selection has been how to match the capabilities and inclinations of potential applicants with the requirements and rewards of a given job. It can be said that recruitment and selection represent one of the most important human resource management functions which can serve as the basis for a sustainable competitive advantage over contenders. This implies that the success and even the survival of a company generally depend on the caliber of the workforce. The best prospective

At the core of this debate is how reputations are affected by rumors, gossip, and shaming across the internet. In his book, future of reputation, David Solove argues, while technologies are constantly changing, human nature remains steadfast. The law must meet the challenge to address these ever-changing technologies’ effect on one’s reputation and strive to protect the privacy while ensuring the freedom of speech. Consider the case of a twenty-three-year-old Yale student who desired to be an investment

The ordinance reads as follows: It prohibits only the sale-but not the use, possession, or gratuitous distribution-of sexual devices (in fact, the users involved in this litigation acknowledge that they already possess multiple sex toys).   The law does not affect the distribution of a number of other sexual products such as ribbed condoms or virility drugs.   Nor does it prohibit Alabama residents from purchasing sexual devices out of state and bringing them back into Alabama.   Moreover, the

tyranny resulted from the inability and impracticality of a large republic to remain truly democratic and representative of the will of the people. Brutus argued the people are the ultimate sovereigns in a free government who give their assent to the laws through elected

Given these difficulties, it is understandable why previous tribunals in have been reluctant to analyse the relationship between the human rights to water and investment law as a normative conflict, and have instead insisted that the obligations under each norm were not mutually exclusive. However, it is possible for a human rights norm to prevail, as shown by the tribunals in SPP and Chemtura. The respondent government in water grab case should argue BITs should not be interpreted so that a government

Court of Appeal Holding Clarifies Employer Calculation of Probationary Period A recent ruling by the California Court of Appeal clarifies when a government employer should calculate the beginning and end of an employee’s probationary period. In California Department of Correction and Rehabilitation v. California State Personnel Board (2015) --Cal.App.5th--, the Court of Appeal held that the first day of the probationary period should be counted when calculating the probationary period, and therefore

Work in Progress: Law Does Not Equate Violence The adversarial process protects people from harm and violence because of how the system itself is set up. Thus, the law cannot hurt the plaintiffs and defendants more than it can help them because there is an entire process that includes jurors, lawyers, and witnesses who ensure one person does not have too much power to harm them in the first place. Think of the law as a contract between the people and the government on how to live together. If we

Criminal law is an immense part in society, including the following functions: to deter a person from acts that harms them or society. Additionally, people who do not follow the rules that are being set by the authority, they will be punished. The criminal law is formed to guide the general public behaviour, which are seen acceptable by society. (Jonathan Herring criminal law eighth edition) Criminal laws are set of rules, created by the authority to establish control in society. While, morality
