Debating Humanitarian Intervention: Should We Try To Save Strangers?, Fernando R. Tesón, Bas Van Der Vossen
Debating Humanitarian Intervention: Should We Try To Save Strangers?, Fernando R. Tesón, Bas Van Der Vossen
Philosophy Faculty Books and Book Chapters
"When violence breaks out in a country, foreign governments face a difficult dilemma: should they intervene on behalf of the victims, or should they remain spectators? Each choice offers its own perils, and philosophers Fernando R. Tesón and Bas van der Vossen offer contrasting views of intervention by employing modern analytic philosophy, particularly just war theory. Tesón and van der Vossen refer to and weigh the consequences of past, present, and future interventions in Syria, Somalia, Rwanda, Bosnia, Iraq, Lybia, Egypt, and more."

Building Blocks: A Multi-Theoretical Preventative Model To Promote Post-Traumatic Growth, Jared S. Becknell
Journal of Critical Issues in Educational Practice
The following is an exploratory model to understand the factors that promote growth after traumatic events, also known as post-traumatic growth (PTG). Additionally, the hope is to inspire further research and create quantitative data regarding the effectiveness of these factors, add additional interventions and integrate into crisis/trauma paradigms during recovery. Therefore, clients would be more equipped to handle the possibility of another event. When PTG occurs, victims of trauma experience increased positive well-being, life satisfaction and regain a new compassion for meaning or purpose in their life. By utilizing the following interventions, victims of past traumatic events can live a …

Fundamental Rights Not So Fundamental? Critique Of The Supreme Court Judgment In Law Association Of Zambia V. The Attorney General, Muna B. Ndulo, Samuel Ngure Ndungu
Southern African Journal of Policy and Development
The article discusses the constitutionality of sections 5 and 6 of the Public Order Act of Zambia. The Law Association of Zambia had unsuccessfully argued in the High Court of Zambia that the sections violated section 20 (Freedom of expression) and 21 (Freedom of assembly) of the Zambian Constitution. The Supreme Court of Zambia upheld the decision of the High Court and held that the sections did not violate sections 20 and 21 of the constitution and were constitutional. This article argues that the Supreme Court decision is wrong and falls short of effectively protecting citizen’s rights of peaceful assembly …

Ndikimi i televizionit në jetën tonë të përditshme është shumë i madh. Përveç ndikimit në rritje, ky punim analizon kulturën dhe sfidat e televizionit në aspektin kulturor të zhvillimit të shoqërisë në Kosovë. Duke pasur parasysh këtë dhe duke u bazuar në disa analiza studimore është kuptuar se televizioni është medium më me ndikim në Kosovë, por ka një tendencë në rritje të ndikimit të televizioni ndaj mediave sociale. Televizioni është mjet më i fuqishëm i komunikimit masiv dhe mjet më i fuqishëm i informimit. Televizioni ka rol shumë të rëndësishëm në edukimin dhe argëtimin e njeriut. Mjet të shprehjes, …

Krijimi i portaleve të para informative në vend ka një histori relativisht të shkurtër që shkon disi më shumë se një dekadë.Mediat online, ashtu si i gjithë tregu mediatik ka nevojë për të ardhura financiare për të mbijetuar dhe vazhduar aktivitetin. Por, sa arrijnë këto portale të sigurojnë të ardhura? Cilat janë marrëdhëniet e tyre me reklamuesit, dhe sa ka ndryshuar sjellja e këtyre të fundit në shpërndarjen e buxheteve të reklamës?
Nga ana tjetër këto media të reja kanë krijuar dhe një treg shtesë për gazetarët apo reporterët e rinj, të cilët tashmë përbëjnë një komunitet të rëndësishëm.Ndonëse para …
Media Kosovare Dhe Sfidat E Saj Përballë Korrupsionit, Arlinda Bytyçi
Media Kosovare Dhe Sfidat E Saj Përballë Korrupsionit, Arlinda Bytyçi
Theses and Dissertations
Tema me titull: “Media Kosovare dhe sfidat e saj përballë korrupsionit” ka një vlerë të rëndësishme për faktin se flitet për një sektor të gazetarisë së ndjeshme, ku rreziqet e raportimit janë evidente gjatë gjithë kohës. Të luftosh korrupsionin, do të thotë të luftosh njerëz me ndikim në pushtet dhe njerëz me ndikim në jetën politike e biznesore. Andaj lufta kundër korrupsionit sjell pasoja e rreziqe të shumta. Nisur nga ky fakt do të fokusohemi më tepër në teknikat që përdorin mediat për ta luftuar korrupsionin.
Ky punim paraqet një përpjekje për t’i ndriçuar dhe analizuar disa nga karakteristikat e …

Arritjes së pavarsisë së Kosovës më 17 shkurt 2008, i kanë paraprirë procese, sfida nga më të ndryshmet.
Ky punim diplome përmban një përmbledhje, kronologji dhe analizë të proceseve të cilat kanë përshkuar Kosovën ndër vite, duke vënë në fokus një ndër bartësit apo njërin ndër elementet kryesore të cilat i kanë paraprirë këtyre proceseve në raste të shumta, respektivisht partive politike.
Gjeopolitika e kohës dhe historiografia kanë dëshmuar që, Kosova është njohur përherë si pikë neuralgjike në të cilën janë ndërthurur interesa të shumta qofshin ato rajonale, evropiane por edhe më gjerë. Por, kjo padyshim që ka sjellur edhe …

Overlapping Authorities In U.S. Energy Policy, Luke Fowler, Autumn T. Johnson
Overlapping Authorities In U.S. Energy Policy, Luke Fowler, Autumn T. Johnson
Public Policy and Administration Faculty Publications and Presentations
The authors argue overlapping intergovernmental authorities explain much of the complexities in U.S. energy policy, by accounting for limited powers, uncertain autonomy, cooperation and conflict, inter-state differences, and intersecting policies. Additionally, the authors identify implications of overlapping authority for policymakers, regulators, and industry leaders, including polycentric policymaking venues, direct and indirect policy effects, and energy system governance. Overlapping authority provides a framework for understanding intersecting roles of national, state, and local governments in energy policy.

Ethics For Helping Professionals: Teaching A Framework That Supports Collaborative Ethical Decision-Making, Laura E. Kaplan, Valerie Bryan, Scott Sanders
Walden Faculty and Staff Publications
Social work professionals are often employed in interdisciplinary settings with nursing, psychology, medical, and psychiatric professionals. All of these professions have commonality in their codes of ethics such as the primary principle that we work for the client or patient’s benefit. However, we also know that these same codes do not specifically address ethical dilemmas and their resolution (ACA, 2014, ANA, 2011, AMA/ APA, 2013, AMA,2001, APA, 2010, NASW, 2015). There are numerous decision making models that can be used as a step-by-step process in deciding what to do when confronted by a dilemma (Congress, 1996; Strom-Gottfried, 2007). All of …

Women In Leadership And Decision-Making: Understanding Different Styles Of Leading, Remi Alapo
Publications and Research
Women in leadership and decision-making roles influence the policies and directions of organizations (Ahuja, 2002). Women in leadership value supports from their organizations. Pro-social outcomes of relationship competence are mediated by the development of empathy, collaborative approaches to conflict, self-disclosure, and social interest (Jogulu & Wood, 2006). Decision-making perspectives have uncertainty as the sole reason for organizational leaders to search for additional relevant information to solidify or clarify the information at the leader’s disposal. A phenomenological qualitative research study which explored the preferred style of leadership based on three leadership and decision-making styles is presented in this paper1. The researcher …

A Pilot Study Of Loss Aversion For Drug And Non-Drug Commodities In Cocaine Users, Justin Charles Strickland, Joshua S. Beckmann, Craig R. Rush, William W. Stoops
A Pilot Study Of Loss Aversion For Drug And Non-Drug Commodities In Cocaine Users, Justin Charles Strickland, Joshua S. Beckmann, Craig R. Rush, William W. Stoops
Psychology Faculty Publications
Background—Numerous studies in behavioral economics have demonstrated that individuals are more sensitive to the prospect of a loss than a gain (i.e., loss aversion). Although loss aversion has been well described in “healthy” populations, little research exists in individuals with substance use disorders. This gap is notable considering the prominent role that choice and decision-making play in drug use. The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate loss aversion in active cocaine users.
Methods—Current cocaine users (N = 38; 42% female) participated in this within-subjects laboratory pilot study. Subjects completed a battery of tasks designed to assess …

Clausewitz's Theory Of War And Victory In Contemporary Conflict, Emile Simpson
Clausewitz's Theory Of War And Victory In Contemporary Conflict, Emile Simpson
The US Army War College Quarterly: Parameters
This article considers whether Clausewitz’s account of the nature of war is universal to all wars, in order then to assess how far his concept of victory is universal. While aspects of Clausewitz’s concept of war are still universal, others are not. Accordingly, his theory of victory is not universal to all wars, and especially not to wars fought against transnational terrorist networks.
