Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diplomarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Jura - Sonstiges, Note: 1,7, Universitat Hamburg (Universitat Hamburg), Veranstaltung: offentliche Sozialrecht, 24 Quellen im Literaturverzeichnis, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In allen Epochen in der Entwicklung der modernen menschlichen Gesellschaft gibt es den historischen Nachweis, dass ein bestimmter Personenkreis im Auftrag des Herrschers bzw. spater des Staates Aufgaben der Verwaltung, Aufrechterhaltung der Ordnung (Polizei) und Rechtssprechung auch in Zeiten von Kriegsereignissen, Naturkatastrophen oder anderen wirtschaftlichen bzw. sozialen Erschutterungen des Staates durch ihre loyale Haltung zum Staat garantierten, dass die wichtigsten Funktionen eines Staates trotz der Geschehnisse weiter aufrechterhalten werden konnten. Der Soziologe Max Weber unterscheidet deshalb zwischen patrimonialen Beamten, die im wesentlichen dem jeweiligen Herrscher verpflichtet waren und den burokratischen Beamten, die fest umrissenen Kompetenzen haben und an den Staat gebunden sind. Im griechischen Staatswesen wurde erstmals festgestellt, dass Gesetze von Burgern geschaffen werden und bestimmten sozialen Zielen dienen - damit wurde erstmals die Bedeutung von Gesetzen als Regelmechanismus im Staat formuliert.

Download or read book Harold Brown written by Edward Coltrin Keefer and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2018 with total page 848 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author Edward Keefer chronicles and analyses the tenure of Secretary of Defense Harold Brown, who worked to counter the Soviet Union's growing military strength during the administration of President Jimmy Carter. Flush with cash from oil and gas development, the Soviets came closest to matching the United States in strategic power than at any other point in the Cold War, threatening to make the U.S. land-based missile force vulnerable to a first strike. By most reckonings the Kremlin also surpassed the West in conventional arms and forces in Central Europe, creating a direct threat to NATO. In response, Brown, a nuclear physicist, advocated for the development of more technologically advanced weapon systems to offset the Soviet military advantage, but faced Carter's efforts to reign in the defense budget. Eventually the secretary, backed by the JCS, the national security adviser, and key members of Congress, persuaded a reluctant Carter to increase defense spending for the last two years of his term. As a result weapons development such as stealth technology, precision-guided bombs, and cruise missiles went forward. These initiatives and more provided a head start for the acclaimed Ronald Reagan revolution in defense. As the author points out, there was more continuity than contrast in defense policy between Carter and Reagan. The book also highlights Brown's policymaking efforts and his influence on Carter as the administration responded to international events such as the Middle East peace process, the Iran revolution and hostage crisis, the rise of radical Islam, negotiations with the Soviets over arms limitations, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and the creation of a new security framework in the Persian Gulf region. Other topics cover policy toward Latin America Africa, China, and Southeast Asia. The book is also a history of the Defense Department, including the continual development of the All-Volunteer Force and the organizational changes that saw improved policy formulation and acquisition decisions. Political strategists, political scientists, international relations scholars, foreign policy advocates, historians, and political economists may be interested in this comprehensive historical reference for United States defense and foreign policy under the James (Jimmy) Carter administration. High school students pursuing research for essays and term papers for Government, Modern World History, and United States History may be interested in this resource.

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
