The fictional scenario telling Gideon Goal’s story features a number of ethical and legal issues. Below, the major of those issues will be addressed and discussed in terms of ethical and legislative norms that are important in connection with them. Gideon Goal, a famous footballer, is invited by the manager of a brand new hotel to stay for a weekend as a celebrity guest. He posts a photo on Facebook of himself sitting in his opulent bedroom at the hotel. Later that night, he does a TV interview for Channel X TV in the hotel restaurant. The cameraman accidentally knocks into a fish tank in the restaurant and cracks it. Gideon Goal slips on a patch of water that leaks out from a fish tank. He injures his back and is unable to play football for two weeks. His club seeks compensation. Public liability and/or contested liability The injured party is Gideon Goal, and the hotel is a perpetrator (Markovits 2011). As the hotel employee did not clean up the water out of a fish tank that resulted in an accident, the hotel was to be responsible for that situation. In addition, the hotel employees could be guilty of breaking the rules of safe table setting that resulted in an accident with a fish tank. An example of such cases is Samaan vs Victoria Fried Chicken Pty Ltd 2011, Symons v Cedar College Inc. 2010, Richardson vs. Mt Druitt Workers Club 2010, De Marco vs Italo-Australian Club (ACT) Ltd 2011 (Markovits 2011). The situation in Goal’s case is regulated by Australian Public Liability Law. Three months later, the hotel launches an advertising campaign headlined “These rooms kick Goals”, and prominently featured the Facebook photo of Gideon Goal. Gideon Goal complains, saying he didn’t know the photo was going to be used and demanding the hotel pays him for being featured in the advertising campaign. The hotel refuses, saying that this was the understanding in offering him the room for the weekend. Privacy and consent as an ethical issue There is no signed agreement stating that Gideon Goal permits the hotel using his private images made in the hotel and posted on his Facebook account. In connection with this, a few more questions are important: does the image belong to Facebook? Whether any organization has a right to use the images that people post on their Facebook accounts? In this situation, legal regulation measures should be implemented to punish the hotel management for unfair strategies in their work. Some of the possible measures that could be implemented here were a fine, and a prohibition to use such illegally produced advertisements (Kenyon 2012). The examples of cases similar to this one are the case of Lenah Game Meats vs. ABC 2001, Jane Dow vs. ABS 2002, and Byrne vs. Australian Airlines 2006. A year later, Gideon Goal writes his memoirs for an Australian publisher. A freelance journalist, Jack Hack, hears from a source that the book is going to be “explosive”. He contracts a private investigator who ha
Introduction The decision of the Olympic Games Committee, when choosing the next host for the event, depends on several factors, including the country’s pledge to environmental protection and urban development. The city of Rio de Janeiro, the host of the 2016 Olympic Games, went through this process, but the results of the event are a topic for debate to this day. This review analyses governmental and Olympic reports as well as the opinions of citizens and environmental activists. Such themes as partial environmental conservation, social unrest, unmet sustainability objectives and infrastructure improvement are identified. The findings are summarised to see whether the event was beneficial or detrimental to the area’s regeneration. Source 1 In their research article, Boroghi, Ribeiro and Lourenço (2018) conduct a qualitative analysis of Rio de Janeiro’s reports on sustainability to see how the environment and the infrastructure of the city changed during and after the event. The authors’ area of expertise makes them credible as these scholars investigate the problem from the point of view of sustainable engineering. Boroghi, Ribeiro and Lourenço (2018) note that there exists a gap between the reports that the Brazilian government created as a prospect for the Olympics and the results of the changes. They argue that thematic analysis is necessary to reveal whether the promises made in the project have been fulfilled. Apart from their own experience, the authors apply a variety of credible sources, using the International Urban Sustainability Indicators List (IUSIL) as a basis for the investigation. To conduct the examination, the authors do not make any predictions but pose that the Olympics can have both positive and negative impacts on the hosting city. Their comparison of the results reveals that the developmental objectives set before the Olympic Games were not met by the government. While the transport infrastructure was improved and the area of greenspaces in the city increased, such goals as an offset in carbon emissions, reduction in urban poverty, and sustainable use of resources were not met. As it is a qualitative study, the reliability and validity of the results cannot be discussed apart from mentioning that the researchers used and compared official reports. Overall, this research offers a close and nuanced look at the outcomes of the 2016 Olympic Games. Source 2 Hofman-Mourão and Rocha (2016) discuss the potential impacts of the 2016 Olympic Games on Rio de Janeiro and its citizens, analysing multiple topics, including urban regeneration, by using historical records of the previous games and Brazil’s reports about the event. The research is a part of a larger investigation into the current state of sports in Latin America, and all articles selected for the book are presented by credible authors. Hofman-Mourão and Rocha (2016) identify several gaps in literature due to the proximity of the event to the tine of the analysis, considering the expectations of scholars about the activities of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. The central presupposition made by the authors relies on previous e
Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic has made people desperate for choices in terms of taking the vaccine or assuming it. The global outlook has devised modes of advocating for its population to take the vaccine. Some governments have taken the initiative to ensure their citizens are left with no choice against taking the vaccine. The vaccination will enable countries affected by the pandemic to have a reduced number of deaths (Bhargava & Doshi, 2021). The introduction of mandatory vaccination is morally upright because it saves people from death emanating from the deadly virus. Citizens should be immunized to ensure they boost their thrill to fight the virus. Every citizen should be their neighbor’s keepers to ensure the next generation is kept safe. The ideology of not having the vaccine puts pressure on people who need an ambient condition where they can focus on their daily ventures. Whenever a person gets vaccinated, they enable the economy to open up and pave daily activities. Support for Mandatory Vaccination There has been massive support for mandatory vaccination as compared to those opposing the opinion. The jurisdiction of COVID-19 vaccination is a mode of self-realignment that every citizen should take with seriousness. Giannouchos et al. (2021) posit that it is fundamental for the globe to retain anyone’s right to live. Anybody that declines to take the vaccine poses a community challenge of establishing a weak link for the infection to start affecting people. For instance, in Greece, its population showed overwhelming support of up to 74% for forced inoculation of coronavirus vaccine (Giubilini, 2021). By default, the government is a representation of the goodwill of the people. Whenever they come up with policies, it is for the goodness of the population. Having a community outreach within Greece is a show of support for the vaccination program. Some have gone to the extent of convincing people that do not want to be vaccinated to take the jab. Mandatory vaccination is becoming a popular initiative to ensure people take the right direction. Every citizen is on the verge of ensuring their country achieves herd immunity through compulsory vaccination. As much as there is
Napoleon Bonaparte’s rise and fall still fascinate people around the world. An unknown Corsican, a native of a small island in the Mediterranean Sea, gained unlimited power over France, and then over the European continent. Such a prominent life’s journey proves that Napoleon, who initially was a typical outsider, was talented enough as a leader and commander to mastermind his career from the lieutenant to the First Consul. Despite being undoubtedly gifted, the French revolution of 1789-1799 became the primary catalyst for his brilliant political career. This revolutionary era, together with his talents, enabled Napoleon to rise in prominence and gain power. The young Corsican decided to pursue a military career, so he finished studies at the Brienne military college and Paris military school. In 1789, Napoleon unconditionally supported the French Revolution and sided with the Revolutionaries (Frankforter and Spellman, p. 516). In December 1793, he commanded the artillery of the army besieging Toulon, which was occupied by the British forces. Captain Bonaparte proposed a plan that led to the rapid seizure of the city, for which he eventually received the rank of brigadier general. In 1795 the future emperor helped the National Convention to suppress royalist insurgents in Paris being in charge of the Convention’s artillery. The government appreciated his contribution and promoted him to the division general and commander of the Army of Italy. In 1796 Napoleon invaded Italy and inflicted a series of defeats on the Austrian and Piedmontese troops, forcing Piedmont, the Papal State, and Austria to sign a peace treaty with France (Esdaile, p. 5). In general, he put an end to the first Anti-French coalition. The last remained enemy was Britain, and the Directory, which was unable to land its forces on the British Isles due to the English fleet superiority, opted to capture Egypt. Despite the quite successful land war waged by Bonaparte, the French fleet was defeated at the Battle of the Nile in 1798 (Esdaile, p. 6). Ambitious Napoleon realized the futility of the situation and decided to abandon his army in Egypt to slip back into France. At that moment, Paris suffered from internal unrest, political disintegration, and economic crisis (Esdaile, p. 6). In 1799 Napoleon led the coup d’état organized by conservative factions and overthrew the Directory. People successfully approved the popular military commander as a “First Consul” under a newly created constitution. The subsequent victories helped him to consolidate public support, which he skillfully used to strengthen his own power. In 1802, based on the results of plebiscites, Napoleon was declared the First Consul for life (Frankforter and Spellman, p. 516). Then, in 1804 he proclaimed himself Emperor of the French. Bonaparte dominated Europe a
Correctional officers in correctional institutions face many problems such as staff turnover, inmate demands especially the minors with the most powerful issue affecting them being racial discrimination. I t is also not easy for the correctional officers to work in prisons where the inmates are of the opposite sex. Either way there will be hurdles to face brought about by the issue of gender faced by both the correctional officers and the offenders. This paper will look at both sides of the coin to find out if male correctional officers can work in female institutions and whether female correctional officers can be assigned in male institutions. Female correctional officers have been before not assigned to work in male institutions because they are thought to be of the weaker sex thus lack physical strength, can be easily assaulted by the male inmates and may not be obeyed by the inmates. It is for the above reasons that females working in correctional institutions were allocated the posts of matrons in the female institutions or clerical officers in the male institutions such that they hardly interact with the inmates. Research indicates that female officers working in male institutions bring about a moderate situation the prison (Siegel, 2009, p.67). This is because women are known to have excellent skills in communication hence will always be ready to listen to the inmates developing good relations as opposed to their male counterparts. It is due to this reason that women officers are allocated in prisons for women or minorities otherwise assigned to low risk duties such as working in the visiting areas or control rooms. This is a disadvantage to the female correctional officers since they end up lacking the essential skills of working in the hardship areas due to the lack of exposure. Male correctional officers on the other hand often work in both the male and female institutions. However, when allocated in the female correctional institutions they tend to be assaultive thus subjecting the female inmates to sexual menace, rape and offers or proposals (Siegel, 2009, p. 27). Thus if working in female prisons the male officers should not be allowed in areas that the female inmates carry out most of their chores so as to reduce their interaction time as well as their housing units. Female inmates have been suffering a great deal yet are afraid to complain since no one listens to them, instead the male correctional officers are thought to be telling the truth (Kasdan, 2001, p. 1). Therefore this problem can only come to an end after placing strict rules for the male officers working in female institutions or rather completely removing them. All the accusations on correctional officers have been proved to be groundless, women officers can comfortably work in male institutions and at the same time male correctional officers can work
The psychosocial assessment is a procedure used by nurses to establish if the patient is in a condition of mental health or mental illness. In the current essay, the importance of psychosocial assessments will be discussed, and how it helps to deliver a holistic response to meeting a family’s needs will be demonstrated. Moreover, protective factors with a strength-based approach will be explored. Many scholars have discussed the role of psychosocial assessments. According to Chouliara et al. (2017), the assessment is vital as it provides medical workers with information on a patient’s mental health and, thus, can help handle the diagnosis. The importance of psychosocial assessment is also proven by the fact that different health-related conditions seriously affect people’s mental health (Chouliara et al., 2017). As psychosocial assessment is often undertaken while palliative care or serious illnesses, it is especially important to pay attention to a patient’s emotional, psychological, social, and spiritual needs (Care Search, 2019). In such cases, psychological support is an essential part of the overall treatment. It should be stated that PA can positively impact relationships within families. It is done through observations, interviews, self-reports, and review of family history (Science Direct, n. d.). Furthermore, it is vital to mention protective factors with a strength-based approach. The factors positively influence the mental health of a person helping him or her to be resilient in difficult situations. Factors that are under the control of a person include social support, coping skills, physical health, a sense of purpose, self-esteem, and healthy thinking. In conclusion, it should be mentioned that the present paper addressed the importance of psychosocial assessments. Further, it focused on why it is essential and how it can benefit family relationships. Lastly, protective factors with a strength-based approach were presented and discussed.
Starting a successful business literally out of nothing is extremely hard; however, it is even harder to maintain the business successfully and come up with efficient strategies depending on the changes in the target market. Against all the odds, the owners of the Intervale D. O. O. Koper have been staying afloat for about two decades running and are most likely to become even more successful in the future despite high competition rates because of their unique and ingenious strategy. First of all, it is important to mention that the mission of the company is to maintain high-quality services and remain at the top in the current sails market. Given the fact that the company was founded literally on a shoestring budget of two people who used to have no experience in sailing or sails production, for that matter, it is quite impressive that the company nowadays defines the product quality and dictates its standards in the existing market. Is the time changes, one can observe the company slowly changing its goals, which is rather acceptable for a firm of such scale. However, it is worth noting that the current goal of Intervale D. O. O. Koper does not seem to match the company’s scale; aiming solely at the Optimist youth dinghy seems as if the company has taken its standards down a few notches. While it is worth aiming at expanding the services, the idea of arranging a single event as if it was the company’s final battle does not seem right. However, given the fact that the event is bound to attract even more clients to the company, the Intervale D. O. O. Koper’s move can be justified. Speaking of the recent moves that Intervale D. O. O. Koper has made, one must take a closer look at the company’s strategy. It seems that Intervale D. O. O. Koper is trying to split its strategy into several steps that will lead the company eventually to its success. The given idea, however, seems rather weak for the company that has started as a daring project and used all the resources that the managers had at hand to impress the audience. It can be assumed, however, that Interval D. O. O. Koper is trying to balance its strategy out by handling several projects simultaneously, since, along with the Optimist youth dinghy, Intervale D. O. O. Koper has also started providing sales for cruising and racing yachts. It must be kept in mind, though, that taking too many risks would be dangerous since Intervale D. O. O. Koper has many rivals. Even with the recent upgrade on sails quality with the help of the raw material from Finland, Intervale D. O. O. Koper still has to face huge competition (Hisrich, 2010). Even though Intervale D. O. O. Koper is currently facing a considerable competition and is standing on the threshold of a complete change of its corporate culture, it is still clear that the compan
Dante Alighieri, the author of the poem, lived in medieval Italy when the imaginative view on the world and afterlife as promoted by the Western Church had integrated into society. The author introduced the poem’s message, which is the depiction of sin, virtue, and theology, to reflect the Catholic view of what happens after a person dies (Dante, 2017). Dante’s adventure through dark woods and later translation to the Mountain of Purgatory and to celestial spheres represent a soul’s travel to God. Each of the parts of the poem represents the specific phase of a soul’s adventure. In Inferno, Dante is led by Virgil through the dark woods, which are a symbolical depiction of sins. The central conflict in this stage is that Dante wants to find a way out of this gloomy place. In other words, the character is searching for a way to salvation. To succeed, the hero must pay for committed sins according to the type of wrongdoings. Before reaching paradise, Dante meets with Satan, and the latter’s representation is based on Christian theology. It is evident that the poem can be considered a religious narrative delivered in an unusual form. In the end, after passing all hardships and surviving the meeting with the devil, Dante sees stars, which represent God’s divine. The author’s primary purpose was to illustrate Christianity’s vision of what happens after a person dies and what challenges await for committed sins. Also, the narrative reinforces the idea of a chance for salvation (Dante, 2017). In other words, despite all mistakes a person makes in their life, they have an opportunity to meet with God and deserve a place in the halls of Heaven. Reference Dante, A. (2017). The divine comedy . Aegitas.
In the article, Benatar argues that bringing people to life is not beneficial but harmful from various perspectives. Thus, the presence of pain and hardships overweigh pleasures, and this fact is supported by the considerations of bad and good, which are relative (Benatar, n.d.). Since one would not necessarily enjoy life when lacking pain and suffers when they have no pleasures, the opposite stance should be viewed as erroneous. The argument is well-justified because the author refers to the absence of benefits for children, the lack of guarantees of their happiness, and the regrets of parents. In its favor, one might say that the asymmetry of pain and pleasure is sufficient proof (Benatar, n.d.). The opponents might claim that supporting this stance means devaluing a child’s responsibility for their happiness. In the fourth passage on page 179, the author expands his thought by stating that people tend to forget their disadvantages (Benatar, n.d.). Thus, he confirms the impossibility of analyzing one’s situation without comparison. The most interesting idea is the difference in the attitudes towards death depending on the age because it is critical for understanding societal perceptions (Benatar, n.d.). The questions to the author would be: How can one avoid depression when comparing themselves with their counterparts? How can individuals find a compromise in their views on the benefits and drawbacks of living? These tasks can be addressed by considering varying efforts and upbringing. This piece is connected to Lenman’s article since both authors try to explain the feasibility of life. In conclusion, the subject is critical for finding a balance between positive and negative experiences. The author’s stance is the relativity of these two notions for people, and it helps the reader grasp the meaning of differences between individuals’ positions. Its support is ensured by the applicability to real-life situations in which citizens struggle to find their place in life while referring to numerous obstacles. Lenman’s article presents his concerns regarding the quality of life of humanity. In this piece, his argument is related to the lack of feasibility of
Introduction The book “American Creation: Triumphs and Tragedies” proposes an interesting narration and vision of American culture and its formation. Joseph J. Ellis underlines that the War of Independence and the Louisiana Purchase were turning points in American history and emotional identity. The course of the war and its outcome were shaped and determined by the governments of the USA as well as by their armies. Some of the problems confronting the leaders, both North and South, were similar in nature, The book consists of six chapters devoted to different problems and events during this historical period and analyzes these events from different points of view. Discussion section Ellis creates an interested and detailed narration about the causes of the Civil War and its beginning. He states that the American state was faced with the task of financing the war; political leaders met with internal opposition; and foreign relations were largely focused on gaining, or preventing, recognition of the Confederacy by European powers. “It suffers from the same fate as its European predecessors” (Ellis 101). Other issues were unique. The paradox of increasing the power of a central government in a nation established on the doctrine of States rights placed Jefferson Davis often in disagreement with State authorities. President Lincoln’s great problem was to place and maintain the support of the war on as broad as possible; and his great home affair was the election of 1864, one of the most important in American history. Inextricably involved in the issues to be met was the overriding moral i
