Drug Violence And Public (In)Security: Mexico's Federal Police And Human Rights Abuse, Dominic Pera May 2015

Drug Violence And Public (In)Security: Mexico's Federal Police And Human Rights Abuse, Dominic Pera

Undergraduate Honors Theses

Violence in Mexico, with dramatic political, social, and economic consequences on both Mexican and US populations, has risen dramatically in the past decade. Research has shown that the Mexican military is largely responsible for human rights abuses in Mexico. This paper will seek to answer why there are so many human rights abuses committed by the Federal Police, as public security is a police role and its deterioration threatens lives, security, and the rule of law. This paper will look at what scholars have said about the causes of police violence and public insecurity. Some say that history is responsible, …

“Online Pharmacy Regulation: How The Ryan Haight Online Pharmacy Consumer Protection Act Can Help Solve An International Problem”, Bob Schultz Jan 2015

“Online Pharmacy Regulation: How The Ryan Haight Online Pharmacy Consumer Protection Act Can Help Solve An International Problem”, Bob Schultz

San Diego International Law Journal

There is an unaddressed anomaly with respect to regulating online pharmacies when compared with traditional pharmacies. Online pharmacies serve the same ends as traditional brick and mortar pharmacies, i.e., to bring medication to consumers as a part of a profitable business. The raison d’étre of traditional pharmacy regulation—to protect consumers —should logically apply to online sources of the same inherently dangerous pharmaceuticals. However, traditional pharmacies are regulated, while online pharmacies have long eluded effective regulation and now constitute a lawless source of purchase and abuse that is far from real physician control, effective standards, or accountability....

Promoting Clean Reliable Energy Through Smart Technologies And Policies: Lessons From Three Distributed Energy Case Studies, Samantha Ruiz, Katie R. Thomas, Kevin B. Jones Jan 2015

Promoting Clean Reliable Energy Through Smart Technologies And Policies: Lessons From Three Distributed Energy Case Studies, Samantha Ruiz, Katie R. Thomas, Kevin B. Jones

San Diego Journal of Climate & Energy Law

Following the blackout of the electric grid in the 1965 it was hypothesized that large central generation would lead to continued reliability problems. More recently, following Hurricane Sandy, there have been additional criticisms of the risks that large centralized electric systems face in terms of system restoration following catastrophic storms. Together these concerns have led some in the electric industry to conclude that bigger is not always better. In 2007, with the passage of the Energy Independence and Security Act, Congress initiated policy support for a smarter more distributed grid. Since then, utilities have begun to experiment with more distributed, …

Case study methodology congruent with Miller's Relational-Cultural Theory philosophical framework was utilized in this in-depth, single case design and represents a unique case.

Drones For Good: Technological Innovations, Social Movements, And The State, Austin Choi-Fitzpatrick Dec 2014

Drones For Good: Technological Innovations, Social Movements, And The State, Austin Choi-Fitzpatrick

School of Peace Studies: Faculty Scholarship

The increased use of and attention to drones, or Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), have led to a widespread debate about their application. Much of this debate has centered on their use by governments, often for the purpose of surveillance and warfare. This focus on the state's use obscures the opportunity for civil society actors, including social movements, to make use of these technologies. This article briefly reviews the technological innovation before proceeding to a typology of civil society uses, ranging from art to digital disruption. This typology emphasizes the dual-use nature of this technology and, in the process, highlights the …
