The Legalization Of Casino Gambling In Mainland China, Xi Liu
The Legalization Of Casino Gambling In Mainland China, Xi Liu
UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones
The study of growth in the international casino gaming is currently fascinating. Local residents do not view casino operations negatively anymore. The great success of the regulation of the gaming industry and the resulting highly profitable returns in areas such as Las Vegas has encouraged jurisdictions to introduce gaming into their local economies. Various studies have been done to assess the potential reasons behind the introduction of the gaming industry into regions that have previously banned it; however, only a handful of research has been done regarding the potential gaming industry in mainland China. Given the huge success observed in …

In mediation, we all know that attorneys negotiate for their clients with the other side and with the mediator, and the mediator negotiates with attorneys and clients on all sides. What role, if any, does gender play?

Ten Years Of Gwot, The Failure Of Democratization And The Fallacy Of “Ungoverned Spaces”, David P. Oakley, Patrick Proctor
Journal of Strategic Security
October 7, 2011, marked a decade since the United States invaded Afghanistan and initiated the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT). While most ten-year anniversary gifts involve aluminum, tin, or diamonds, the greatest gift U.S. policymakers can present American citizens is a reconsideration of the logic that guides America's counterterrorism strategy. Although the United States has successfully averted large-scale domestic terrorist attacks, its inability to grasp the nature of the enemy has cost it dearly in wasted resources and, more importantly, lost lives. Two of the most consistent and glaring policy flaws revolve around the concepts of filling "ungoverned spaces" and …
Deterring And Dissuading Nuclear Terrorism, John J. Klein
Deterring And Dissuading Nuclear Terrorism, John J. Klein
Journal of Strategic Security
While nuclear deterrence theory may be well-suited to dealing with nuclear-armed states, its suitability for deterring nuclear terrorism has frequently been questioned since 9/11. While terrorist organizations do not necessarily act uniformly or according to the same underlying beliefs, many of the most aggressive organizations are motivated by an ideology that embraces martyrdom and an apocalyptic vision.1 This ideology may be based on religion or a desire to overthrow a government. Consequently, terrorists motivated by ideology who intend to use a stolen or improvised nuclear device against the United States or its interests may not care about the resulting military …
Policy Intervention In Fata: Why Discourse Matters, Nazya Fiaz Dr.
Policy Intervention In Fata: Why Discourse Matters, Nazya Fiaz Dr.
Journal of Strategic Security
Despite years of wide-scale counterterrorism measures in Pakistan's FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Areas), the injection of substantial funds, and the "close" collaboration between the United States and Pakistan, the ugly truth is that the extremism and militancy in FATA continues to recruit members. Moreover, there is little indication that the killing of Usama bin Ladin will have any significant effect on reducing support for militancy. While taking stock of these realities, this article will not seek to rehash the many successes and failures of the counterterrorist operations in FATA. Instead, its purpose will be to argue that while the causes …
A Behavioral Approach To Modus Operandi: Incident Form Completion And Its Effect On Predictive Analysis, Sarah Elizabeth Casella
A Behavioral Approach To Modus Operandi: Incident Form Completion And Its Effect On Predictive Analysis, Sarah Elizabeth Casella
Dissertations
This study examined the effects of task clarification, group feedback, and policy change on incident form completion by police officers. Participants included all sworn officers employed in the Operations Division by the Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety. The task consisted of completing the modus operandi (MO) section of the incident reports for burglary, robbery and aggravated assault. The main dependent variable was the percentage of incident reports with MO form completion. The secondary dependent variable was quality of the MOs completed in the reports; more specifically the completeness of the MO section compared to the narrative and discrepancies between the …

Against The New Maternalism, Naomi Mezey, Cornelia T. Pillard

The biggest challenge for sex equality in the 21st Century is to dismantle inequality between women and men’s family care responsibilities. American law has largely accomplished formal equality in parenting by doing away with explicit gender classifications, along with many of the assumptions that fostered them. In a dramatic change from the mid-20th Century, law relating to family, work, civic participation and their various intersections is now virtually all sex-neutral. As the Supreme Court’s 2003 decision in Nevada Department of Social Services v. Hibbs demonstrates, both Congress and the Court have accepted the feminist critique of sex roles and stereotyping …

Argues that faculty members should not view hits to their works in an institutional repository as a drain on their Social Science Research Network rankings. While SSRN excels at delivering their work to the cadre of legal specialists, IRs typically do a better job of presenting it to a broader readership. This expanded exposure should be judged a positive complementary benefit.

The fifty-five credentialed delegates who attended (at least one or more) sessions of the Philadelphia convention supplied thirty-nine delegate signatories. But this figure is not the fewest number of delegates who could have organized the United States of America; that is, a new government which would substitute for (or secede from) the United States in Congress Assembled, the style of the (then existing) government under the Articles of Confederation.

Locke Et L'État D'Exception: L'Individu Face À La Majorité, Javier Agudo
Javier Agudo
Le libéralisme défendu par John Locke reconnaît la nécessité d'un pouvoir discrétionnaire de l’exécutif dans le cadre des situations d’exception: c'est la prérogative. Dans son Deuxième Traité sur le Gouvernement Civil, Locke reconnaît que même si les lois peuvent établir certaines limites à l'exercice de cette prérogative, la nature changeante et imprévisible du futur rendent impossible l'élimination totale de ce pouvoir discrétionnaire.
How The Traditional Property Rights Model Informs The Broadcast Television Spectrum Rationalization Challenge, J. Armand Musey Cfa
How The Traditional Property Rights Model Informs The Broadcast Television Spectrum Rationalization Challenge, J. Armand Musey Cfa
J. Armand Musey, CFA
This paper examines the prospective role of zoning rights and eminent domain in the Federal Communication Commission’s (“FCC”) challenge of reallocating underutilized television broadcast spectrum for use in significantly higher value mobile broadband applications. The government must reallocate the spectrum in an economically and legally efficient manner, balancing the interests of the politically powerful broadcasters and those of society as a whole. Recently, the government has decided to explore ways to incentivize the broadcasters to voluntarily return their spectrum licenses. From a strictly legal perspective, the broadcasters have a relatively weak claim to property rights. However, the government has indicated …

America's New Civil Rights Movement: Education Reform, Public Charter Schools And No Child Left Behind, Jonathan C. Augustine
Jonathan C. Augustine
In Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court placed access to educational opportunities at the heart of the twentieth century Civil Rights Movement. Moreover, in Grutter v. Bollinger, a case decided almost 50-years after Brown, the Court affirmed this time-honored philosophical position. While the concept of education reform is not new, the socioeconomic realities of recent years beg the question of whether the Court’s philosophical position has been compromised by so-called failing public schools. Indeed, from an African-American perspective, education reform has become America’s new civil rights movement. As January 2012 marked the 10-year anniversary of the No Child …

Farm Workers, Equal Treatment And Insurability: Griego V New Mexico Workers’ Compensation Administration, Mel Cousins
Mel Cousins
The US courts have considered a number of cases where a person has argued that his or her exclusion from insurability (either in social security, unemployment insurance or workers compensation) was in breach of the guarantee of equal protection in federal and/or state constitutions. The Social Security Act had originally entirely excluded domestic and agricultural workers. Early cases upholding the constitutionality of the Social Security Act had, inter alia, held that the exclusion of certain classes of worker from the scope of coverage did not render the legislation unconstitutional. However, these cases had not involved claims of racial, economic or …
You Say You Want A (Nonviolent) Revolution, Well Then What? Translating Western Thought, Strategic Ideological Cooptation, And Institution Building For Freedom For Governments Emerging Out Of Peaceful Chaos, Donald J. Kochan
Donald J. Kochan
With nonviolent revolution in particular, displaced governments leave a power and governance vacuum waiting to be filled. Such vacuums are particularly susceptible to what this Article will call “strategic ideological cooptation.” Following the regime disruption, peaceful chaos transitions into a period in which it is necessary to structure and order the emergent governance scheme. That period in which the new government scheme emerges is particularly fraught with danger when growing from peaceful chaos because nonviolent revolutions tend to be decentralized, unorganized, unsophisticated, and particularly vulnerable to cooptation. Any external power wishing to influence events in societies emerging out of peaceful …

Medicines That Kill, Lina Ahmed Abushouk
Annual Undergraduate Conference on Health and Society
The prevalence of counterfeit drugs on the African continent has been increasing at an alarming rate. “Medicines that Kill” is a research paper that attempts to analyze the factors that make African countries particularly susceptible to this global threat. Nigeria, a country that has had some of the highest rates of counterfeit drugs in the world, is the main case study for this paper. Its efforts to combat the issue are compared and contrasted with those of Tanzania and Kenya in an attempt to understand what aspects of the issue are unique to Africa and the methods that have been …
