legal issues and news media

Prompt: The organization RSF (Reporters Without Borders) has petitioned the United Nations
to establish a global watchdog to curb disinformation and fake news. They are proposing the
establishment of an independent multi-stakeholder organization like ICANN.
You have been asked to present a legal analysis of the potential rulings of such an organization

foundation for treaty obligations.
Your answer should draw on the material provided in the Final: Disinformation – A Global
Challenge folder (including the relevant work of your classmates) in the content section of our
course blackboard. Your paper should provide the following:
An introduction, clearly stating the importance to society of the general issue, the central focus
of your legal analysis, and your conclusion.
A full description of the core legal issues youve identified,
o What are the relevant underlying facts?
o What is the controlling law (constitution, statute, case law, treaty, etc.)?
o How have similar issues been decided by relevant courts?
o How has this issue or issues moved through the courts?
What are the different sides/positions?
o Regarding the general topic you are focused on.
o Regarding the most important legal issues relevant to your research.
What is your conclusion?

o Provide convincing logical support for your conclusion.

Retrenchment

/in /by

The concept of retrenchment, as described by both Paul Pierson and Jacob Hacker, is traditionally used to refer specifically efforts to roll back or otherwise undermine the benefits provided by the welfare state.  But can it also be applied to help understand other sorts of policy changes?Write an essay that applies the concepts of drift, layering, conversion, and revision to the legality of marijuana use which, after all, is still illegal at the federal level.  How have individual states and municipalities applied the various forms of retrenchment discussed by Hacker to rollback or otherwise undermine the prosecution of marijuana related offenses?  How have the conditions discussed by Hacker that lead to different styles of retrenchment influenced state and local policy choices?After addressing these questions, draw a conclusion as to whether or not you think the concept of retrenchment provides a useful frame for understanding and discussing this issue.  Either YesorNois an acceptable answer so be sure to explain why.

Black Power, Cultural Nationalism and White Backlash

/in /by

Below is the paper you wrote for me, but I need another page added to this one. Same concept and everything. If you could stay on track with what you have already written.

The Black Power movement had similar objectives to that of the civil rights. Both entities wanted America to recognize all races as equal without discriminatory practices against minorities such as African Americans. Unlike the tolerant civil rights movement leaders, black power pioneers believed in a vicious and impatient approach. black power movement successfully pressurized the society to respect racial equality because they popularized the idealism of black supremacy through confrontational strategies.
Revolutionaries such as Stokely Carmichael agitated for nationalism or separatism as long as Africans would acquire their rightful liberty. Most of the black power adherents argued that the black community would not live in a free society as long as white privilege was the norm (Ogbar 2018, 36).[1] Unlike the civil rights movement that believed in nonviolent pressurization, black power was uncompromising, as evidenced in the assertion that a peaceful revolution is a fallacy. Guided by the attitude of courageous icons such as Malcolm X, the black power movement formulated factions such as the armed Black Panther Party that deployed the same confrontational tactics to popularize the philosophy of freedom for African Americans (Austin 2017, 14).[2] Violence would coerce the rest of the country to avail of improved conditions for blacks alongside the institution of survival programs.
The black power movement represented the frustrations of African Americans at the slow pace of liberating African Americans. The movement wanted the country to recognize blacks as equal to Caucasians in critical areas such as the labor force. Unlike previous leaders such as Dr. King, black power did not fancy peaceful marches because they were not putting maximum pressure on the authorities. Black Panther Party is the embodiment of the black power philosophy of optimal pressure through violent resistance.
