Law Of Nations: An Overview
Number of words: 979 - Number of pages: 4.... of law. His
use of the term represents the struggle morality wages against nature and
reason. He equates morality in any form, with "tyranny and unreason."
Nietzsche proposes that man's natural existence be, in essence, nihilistic.
Logically, the political entity known as the state, created by man will inherit
these traits. Thus, the conclusion is that the creation and institution of

themselves to it. . Since most of this law is derived from codified norms of
states, .....

Women In Combat
Number of words: 689 - Number of pages: 3.... females lost their lives (Holm, Women in
Combat: The New Reality, pg. 67-68).
In the Persian Gulf, there were no exact

applicable. By many armed forces policies,
females are banned from combat jobs and units,
but in the Persian Gulf War females were assigned
to battleships, aircraft carriers, and marine
support groups dug into the desert. From
their experience in the Persian Gulf, military women
have earned the right to be treated as equals with
men and not as protected individuals.

Barbie As The Epitome Of Beaut
Number of words: 508 - Number of pages: 2.... to fit all of her internal organs and is too busty to stand under her own power. Barbie living in her pink palace and riding her pink corvette with her molded man Ken. Barbie had taught me that every member of society was living this very same life. I have to question if the weight of responsibility for this beauty myth falls only on Barbie's tiny plastic shoulders? But of course not! To be fair, Barbie was not the only culprit, I can remember getting dolls whose main purpose was to remove or apply make-up, style hair, or spend fake money with a fake credit cards, as if that's all it meant to .....

Gun Control
Number of words: 444 - Number of pages: 2.... ready and eager to disregard this right which is currently being exercised
by 70 million Americans. (METSKA)
I believe that the governments struggle to keep guns out of the hand of
juveniles and criminals is a worthy one, but when it comes to unconstitutional
interrogation then its getting out of control. The government is currently
trying to implement laws that will keep weapons out of the hands of every one.
The people on capital hill say that they want a safer America, they want the

after the position of governor with renewed vigor and defeated incumbent

Capital Punishment
Number of words: 441 - Number of pages: 2.... They seem to be inhumane. Yet in Eastern cultures, if one steals something, they lose a finger or two and sometimes an entire hand depending on the severity of the crime. This seems to be reason enough not to steal, as in these cultures there is a very low theft rate. Maybe the ACLU would find a monetary fine a more appropriate punishment? For society to take money away from someone against his will without giving him any tangible goods in return would make society a thief. Of course, the Bedau also explains that brutalizes society, leading to even more murders. If we, as a society, adop .....
