INDUSTRIALIZATION And THE MODERN STATE – THE CREATION OF A REGULATED ECONOMY

/in /by

This is the textbook I’m using: Schultz, Kevin M. (2018). HIST5: Volume 2: U.S. History Since 1865 (Student edition). Boston: Cengage.

The United States went through dramatic economic change during and after the Civil War, as industrialization spread rapidly and changed society. This transformation and some of the apparent abuses that developed led to an increased role of the government in regulating businesses and society. This role was heightened as government was viewed as the arbiter between business and organized labor. One can explore these developments from 1865 on through to World War II. Take the position as suggested below, draw from the sources listed, and present a paper with specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your position.

Possible position— you can take the pro or con position:

***From 1865 to 1940, the development of labor unions was generally a negative force leading to economic disruption and unnecessary laws that stifled businesses and hindered job growth. (or you can take the position that labor unions had a necessary function and generally positive impact)

After giving general consideration to your readings so far and any general research, the position—your thesis. (Organize your paper as follows, handling these issues:

  1. The position —will be the thesis statement in your opening paragraph.
  2. To support your position, use four specific examples from different decades between 1865 and 1940.
  3. Explain why the opposing view is weak in comparison to yours.
  4. Consider your life today: In what way does the history you have shown shape or impact issues in your workplace or desired profession?

Exclusionary Rule, assignment help

/in /by

The Exclusionary Rule

The exclusionary rule was created by judges, through case law, to prevent police misconduct. It prohibits the use of evidence obtained in violation of a person’s constitutional rights. The exclusionary rule was established in the case of Weeks v. United States (1914) for federal application and was subsequently applied to the states in the 1961 case of Mapp v. Ohio.

You have been tasked with putting together a training presentation for a new class in the academy. The presentation will address the exclusionary rule, the impacts of the exclusionary rule, and exceptions to the exclusionary rule. In PowerPoint format, address the following:

  1. The circumstances that gave rise to the creation of the exclusionary rule, citing the Weeks case.
  2. The circumstances that gave rise to the extension of the exclusionary rule to the states, citing the Mapp case.
  3. How public policy impacts the balancing of individual rights and societal needs in a Fourth Amendment interpretation.
  4. How the courts have interpreted the exclusionary rule since its creation in your specific jurisdiction, using two court cases as examples.
  5. How one possible exception to the exclusionary rule works, using the following scenario for analysis: You are a supervising police officer and one of your rookie patrol officers, Patrolman Mark, asks you a question about something that happened on his shift. Along with Officer Kennedy, Mark tells you he was executing a search warrant issued for 221B Elm Street. Unfortunately, they went to 212B Elm Street instead and entered the home of Ms. Cook, finding a stack of laptops that turned out to be stolen property. Cook thought she had been caught and did not complain about the search warrant issue. Mark says he is glad they caught Cook but does not want to get in trouble. Is Mark in trouble for the search?
  6. The impact of the court decisions on police procedure.
