Equality of Citizens and Non-Citizens in the EU Essay -- Social Welfar

Introduction The territory of the European Union (EU) hosts roughly 500 million people. Are they all equal in their rights? Definitely not. One of legal dividing lines lies between the nationals of EU Member States (Citizen) and third-country nationals (TCNs) whose citizenship belongs to a non-EU country. Nationality therefore does matter in EU law: it confers different statuses. The paper compares the two separate legal regimes that are applicable to EU citizens and TCNs respectively. Due to the narrow scope of this essay, the analytical focus adopted here is under four major limitations. First, legal migrants coming from outside the EU constitute several different categories (for instance, economic migration, family reunion or migration of students, pupils, trainees, and volunteers) in EU law, which is even more complex because of privileged TCNs who gain their status from special arrangements between their own country and the EU, furthermore Schengen visa requirements mean additional classification along a different dimension. The essay deals only with non-privileged long-term residents (LTRs) as defined by the Council Directive 2003/109/EC concerning the status of third-country nationals who are long-term residents (LTRs Directive) . Second, both EU citizens’ and LTRs’ rights comprise several dimensions (for example, access to employment, fa mily reunification or social grants) but this study is mainly focused on their entitlements to move and reside within the territory of the EU. Third, the main concern of this paper is restrictions to the previously mentioned rights of both categories of persons. Fourth, the family members neither of Citizens nor TCNs are not part of the main body of this analysis. Subsequently, the e... ...and citizenship tests in several countries as a new way of selecting immigrants.

North Korea as a Nuclear power

It is now known that North Korea, continuing on the path of defying the international community, became a nuclear nation, or is close to becoming one within a short period of time, depending on a variety of factors.The latest declaration of the North Korean government regarding conducting a nuclear test is bringing the chapter of this country in what concerns its relations with the rest of the world to its final phases.According to Abramowitz and Lynch (2006), the White House wants the various members of the United Nations, especially those with permanent seats in the Security Council, to agree on immediate measures that can be considered as punitive actions against the government in Pyongyang. The two authors state that there are still doubts and questions concerning the â€Å"the strength and success of the reported North Korean explosion, but there was little doubt among White House officials, lawmakers and outside experts that the action added a volatile new ingredient to an alr eady dangerous world environment†.The doubts concerning the test are caused by two factors: First, that the United States and other countries do not trust what the regime of North Korea says, and the second is what was stated by Naughton and Knight (2006) when they reported that the test was done through the detenation of bomb underground, and that the explosion caused an earthquake measuring about 3.6 on the Richter scale. This gives us an idea that the explosive device was of some size around 500 tonnes, which makes its power reach the equivalent of one-thirtieth of the power of the bomb deployed against the city of Hiroshima at the end of the World War II.Even though there is total agreement between the permanent members of the Security Council to condemn this action, there are still certain doubts about the next steps to be taken. As it is widely known, North Korea is practically suffering from a regime of sanctions imposed on it by many countries (including the United Sta tes), but there are other elements to take into consideration. As Nichols (2006) reports, â€Å"despite the hard-edged rhetoric, foreign policy analysts and nuclear experts pointed out the obvious: World powers have tried to bully, threaten, cajole, entice, sanction and sweet talk North Korea into the community of nations for 50 years, without success.†This is a difficult reality to deal with, especially when we know that countries like China (and maybe Russia) are always reluctant whenever the discussions reach the point of severe sanctions. According to Jim Walsh, a North Korea expert at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the United States and Japan do not really have many options if China refuses to pass a strong resolution against North Korea (Nichols, 2006)The image that we have about North Korea, according to Harrison (2006), is not a correct one. The country is politically stable and is growing economically. â€Å"North Korea is stable and there is more econom ic activity in Pyongyang than I have ever seen—more cars and bicycles, better-dressed people, more restaurants, more small mom and pop stores, and above all more interest in making money.†From this angle, we can understand why sanctions did not work in the past, and why it is possible that it would not work in the future; in addition to the fact that North Korean officials have already declared that â€Å"sanctions imposed by the US were a declaration of war, and had forced it [the government of North Korea] to go ahead with plans for testing.† The worrying factor here is the impact that is expected on the countries in the region: â€Å"There are fears that a North Korean nuclear test could trigger a regional arms race. Japan could seek its own nuclear deterrent in a move that could aggravate historical tensions between Japan on one hand and China and South Korea on the other† (The Guardian).The government in North Korea is a dictatorship that has a terrib le record in what concerns human rights and the persecution of political opposition and with subjects related to public freedoms. When a regime like that is allowed (or not completely opposed) to possessing nuclear weapons, this would create a grave threat to the world and it should be taken seriously.The duty of the international community is to responsibly deal with this responsibly, and to go through all the options that should stop the threat of a nuclear North Korea.REFERENCESAbramowitz, M. &   Lynch, C.

The Impact of E-Commerce Developments on Supply Chain

ÂÆ'ÃÅ" Introduction In recent years, the impact of E-Commerce (EC) on supply chain (SC) has caught considerable attention. Many companies in the supply chain engage themselves in the field of EC to pursue benefits. This report is authorized by the CEO and focuses on the improvements brought in by EC in SC. In the first section, it gives a brief overview of the supply chain management (SCM) and EC concepts; in the second section, it discusses the benefits offered by EC such as convenient information interchange; lower inventory level, less management time, value-added relationship and cost effectiveness; the security and legal problems with EC are also mentioned in the third section; in the last section, the report gives out the author ¡Ã‚ ¦s†¦show more content†¦Suppliers could also enhance communication with customers and realize customization, because they could communicate with customers directly through Internet. After information is transferred and collected, EC could also make it possible to analyze data conveniently simply through a computer. Fraser et al., (2000) presents that improved information gathering and processing could be realized by EC. Srinivasan, et al. (1994) recognize that increasing vertical information sharing using EDI technology can enhance shipment performance of suppliers and greatly improve the performance of the supply chain system. Benjamin and Elsie, (2003) illustrate that EC provides the channel for each party to get the required information to avoid information scarcity or information overload, improves the accuracy of data entry and transmission, and realize the in-time communication. Angeliki and Loukas, (2003) also gives following opinion about information flow in the EC environment: Effectively EC streamlines the flow of information across and within organizations with significant value adding potential. The end result of a full scale EC supply chain adoption is the seamless information flow integration from the producer to the end customer.

History †Martin Luther King Free Essays

Martin Luther King’s Jr. was a man of great ambition. He had a dream of granting civil rights to colored people; eliminating poverty and war; and doing this all non-violently. We will write a custom essay sample on History – Martin Luther King or any similar topic only for you Order Now King’s utter passion significantly helped him achieve his dream. On the journey to reaching his goal, and after King accomplished many of the heroic archetypes. Therefore, one can consider Martin Luther King Jr. an archetypal hero. Segregation is the separation of humans into racial groups in daily life. Which then between the 1950s and 1960s black Americans had their time of suffering. In which the white people believed that separating white people from black people would change a lot of things. Racial tensions had escalated and demonstrations swelled for voting rights and school integration. In 1955 Martin Luther King became the leader in the Montgomery bus. The Community chose King to lead the boycott because the young minister was new to Montgomery and the city fathers had not had time to intimidate him. The protesters did a march down miles of roads for their intended to oppose the city’s policy of racial segregation on its public transit system. Fighting for what they think is right taken them about 381 days; they fought hard until they get what they started. The Montgomery bus boycott became very violent, so they fought very hard in the court. On November the 13th, after a year of blood, sweat and tears gone. The U. S Supreme Court ruled in favour, of the blacks and segregated buses were declared unconstitutional. The Montgomery bus Boycott was finally over. The boycott was a success because they all protested until everyone had enough. They never gave up on what they fought was right. Most important was when the Negros had enough and they wanted their rights back. As they protested and done other things they had many supports. The problem of this was the civil rights movement in the United States; it was a long primarily nonviolent struggle to bring full civil rights and equality under the law to all Americans. The movement has had a lasting impact on the United Sates Society. The Negros wanted to fight for their rights back because in many cities and towns, African-Americans were not allowed to share a taxi with whites or enter a building through the same entrance, and they thought well that is one selfish thing. They wanted the whites to accept them and be treated equally, by not their skin colour but the way that God created them. They thought that everyone is the same in different kind of way, â€Å"We all are human beings and all have something in common†. The Negros done lots of Protest and finally, that’s when Martin Luther King stood out and said what he thought was right for the world but mostly United State. King toured the country making speeches and urging more and more people to get involved in the civil rights movement . And as a result they finally got what they called rights. In 1964 the Civil Rights Act was passed because of Pressure by the civil rights movement. It was passed by Lyndon B. Johnson. He said that â€Å"Every American citizen must have an equal right to vote. † The Civil Rights Act was passed away because of the votes they got were unspeakable. Seventy Percent said that it should be passed way and the thirsty percent said that it shouldn’t. As the vote was taken in and final, they could not do anything about it and it was officially passed. It meant so much to the black people because now the Freedom Riders and the black and white people would travel around in buses to test if the new law would work. And that now they can make a difference! Then in 1965 the voting rights act was passed as well because of the civil rights movement. The Voting Rights Act was passed by Lyndon B. Johnson as well. The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was a landmark piece of national legislation in the United States that outlawed discriminatory voting practices that had been responsible for the widespread disenfranchisement of African Americans in the U. S. When Johnson agreed to sign the paper the black people knew that they were closer each day to success. It meant a lot them this because it was a day to remember that they are finally getting respect from the whites. But as everything was going well, there were still failures for the Civil Rights Movement too. The Civil Rights Movement had many failures as do all social movements. But its strengths outweighed the mistakes it made and its legacy as a whole is a positive one. Businesses owned by people of colour are still denied equal access to markets, financing, and capital. Centuries of economic deprivation, and the problems stemming from it, remain largely un- addressed. But it still was alright because Movement was still a success. In Conclusion, the changes that were made in the civil rights movement has really helped America and leaded them to a place where they can find peace. And for the Civil rights Groups, there is so much that people have to say and so much that we still need to learn from you. They were very successful because they were the freedom fighter and they were the ones who believed and never gave up. How to cite History – Martin Luther King, Essay examples

Health promotion Essay Example For Students

Health promotion Essay Health promotion Essay and teaching are important tools for nursing. By promoting health and health teaching, nurses can help lay the foundation for a healthier future. Major Concepts and Definitions Belief-a statement of sense, declared or implied, that is intellectually and/or emotionally accepted as true by a person or group. Attitude-a relatively constant feeling, predisposition, or a set of beliefs that is directed toward an object, a person, or a situation. Value-a preference that is shared and transmitted within a community. Behavioral diagnosis-the delineation of the specific health actions that are most likely to effect a health outcome. Health Belief Model-a paradigm used to predict and explain health behavior that is based on value-expectancy theory. Perceive-how one views oneselfs health. Expectancies-outcomes and evaluation of how behavior is determined. Divided into three types. Environmental cues-subconcept of expectancies, beliefs how events are connected. There are various aspects of health promotion. Health promotion can be applied to any group or environment. A few of the more popular places and populations we see health promotion being addressed more often are the workplace, community, among adolescent, and the elderly. However, I believe the most effective and important place to begin health promotion is within our school systems. Promoting a healthy lifestyle, bettering quality of life, and preventing disease and illness of the future are three of the main goals for health promoters (CDC1, 2001). Educating our youth is what I feel is the most effective way to accomplish this. Neglecting our older population for the younger population is not what is being implied. The baby boomers are now becoming the elderly population and need to be addressed. Addressing the younger generation now will hopefully lessen the pressures as they become older. The United States population has tripled since the 1900s. Adults ages 65 years and older have increased from 3.1 million in 1900 to 33. 9 million currently. At this rate by 2030 the number of older Americans will be more than 70 million (CDC1, 2001). One in every 5 Americans will be a senior citizen. This increase in the elderly population will affect health care cost and health promoting techniques. As more of the American population gets older, it becomes necessary to educate them and provide them with resources now. Americans need to know where they can go to get the proper treatment. They should be aware of what resources are available outside of a doctors office and hospital. Chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and arthritis, will be the most problematic among older Americans. There is an Arthritis Self Help Course available that educates the public on arthritis and the management of pain and minimization of symptoms. Adults are taught how early diagnosis and appropriate treatments are important in the management of arthritis. The Arthritis Self Help Course is proven to help adults reduce arthritis pain by as much as 20%. Those adults who enrolled in the self help course were better able to understand arthritis and physicians visits declined by 40%. However this wonderful program reaches less than 1% of the population despite its positive outcomes (CDC1, 2001). Community education and outreach programs in most areas are nonexistent or lack resources to educate the public on what is available to them. Those who are in charge of these programs lack the training and expertise to find the resources for what is available to their community. These same leaders are not fully aware of what the community needs due to the lack of communication with the constituents. Treating chronic diseases in the early stages can save lives and reduce health care costs. Health care providers realize the importance in prevention. .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c , .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .postImageUrl , .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .centered-text-area { min-height: 80px; position: relative; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c , .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c:hover , .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c:visited , .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c:active { border:0!important; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .clearfix:after { content: ""; display: table; clear: both; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c { display: block; transition: background-color 250ms; webkit-transition: background-color 250ms; width: 100%; opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; background-color: #95A5A6; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c:active , .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c:hover { opacity: 1; transition: opacity 250ms; webkit-transition: opacity 250ms; background-color: #2C3E50; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .centered-text-area { width: 100%; position: relative ; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .ctaText { border-bottom: 0 solid #fff; color: #2980B9; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; margin: 0; padding: 0; text-decoration: underline; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .postTitle { color: #FFFFFF; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0; padding: 0; width: 100%; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .ctaButton { background-color: #7F8C8D!important; color: #2980B9; border: none; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: none; font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 26px; moz-border-radius: 3px; text-align: center; text-decoration: none; text-shadow: none; width: 80px; min-height: 80px; background: url(https://artscolumbia.org/wp-content/plugins/intelly-related-posts/assets/images/simple-arrow.png)no-repeat; position: absolute; right: 0; top: 0; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c:hover .ctaButton { background-color: #34495E!important; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .centered-text { display: table; height: 80px; padding-left : 18px; top: 0; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c-content { display: table-cell; margin: 0; padding: 0; padding-right: 108px; position: relative; vertical-align: middle; width: 100%; } .uc76becf82a8584e8c38915df9be3904c:after { content: ""; display: block; clear: both; } READ: Essentials of Business Management Essay For example, Medicare will cover screening for breast and colorectal cancers.
