Geopolitics is the study of how geography influences international politics and relations. It examines factors like location, topography, demography, and natural resources. Classical geopolitical thinkers like Friedrich Ratzel, Alfred Thayer Mahan, and Halford Mackinder developed influential theories. Ratzel viewed states as organic entities that naturally expand. Mahan emphasized the importance of naval power and sea trade. Mackinder proposed the Heartland Theory, where whoever controls the strategically located Heartland region of Eurasia would dominate the world.

Geopolitics analyzes the relationship between geography and international politics. It studies how physical geography, human geography, and territorial waters influence diplomatic history and the interests of states. Some key factors in geopolitical analysis include the location, topography, size, shape, and demography of states, as well as their policies and actions. Classical geopolitical thinkers like Friedrich Ratzel, Alfred Thayer Mahan, and Halford Mackinder developed influential theories about the relationship between land and sea powers and the strategic importance of controlling key territories.

The document discusses the historical relationship between Japan and the US from the Manchurian Incident in 1931 to Obama and Abe's visit to Pearl Harbor and Hiroshima in 2016. It explores the theories of constructivism and realist constructivism in analyzing how international relations and history influence each other. The research question posed is whether international relations pulls from history or history pulls from international relations. The document outlines a case study approach using both Japanese and English primary and secondary sources to examine this question in the context of Japan-US relations.

The Heartland Theory proposed by British geographer Halford Mackinder divided the world into three zones: the Heartland (Eurasia), the Inner Crescent (coastal regions surrounding the Heartland), and the Outer Crescent (remaining landmasses). Mackinder argued that whoever controlled the Heartland would control the world, and predicted power struggles between land and sea powers, with land powers ultimately prevailing. While the theory helped predict World Wars I and II, it oversimplified geopolitics and did not anticipate many later geopolitical developments.

The United States disapproved of communism and the tyranny that Joseph Stalin ruled by. The Results of the Doctrine As a result of the Truman Doctrine and resulting a program known as the Marshall Plan, which helped Europe recover economically. This was good for America, even while the biggest gains were seen by the Europeans countries and their citizens. (1) The improvements to infrastructure and finances relaxed the region quite a bit, allowing self-serving countries to start working together. The effects of the Marshall plan were much better than anyone initially expected. (2) The Domino Theory Another concept created by the Truman Doctrine was the idea of ‘domino theory’: “the idea that sudden change in the leadership of one nation can set off a chain reaction in its neighbors, transforming an entire region.” (3) This concept was easily understood and quickly accepted not only by American citizens but also our Government officials. This was given the connotation of the ‘Red Scare’ and was a real and n.

Tornadoes are violent and quite unpredictable, while hurricanes are large and slow-moving but more destructive. Use library and Internet resources to find the similarities and differences between these types of storms. Please answer at least three of the following six questions: 1) Where do these two storm types occur most often, and how frequently do they occur? 2) In the USA, what regions are most at risk, why? 3) On the world scale, where are conditions favorable for each type of storm? What are the conditions for their creation? 4) On what basis is the intensity of tornadoes or hurricanes rated, and how is their strength actually measured? 5) When and where were the most intense cases of each? 6) How bad are losses of life and property, and what are the most common causes of such loss - fire? winds? flooding? How does one protect self and property from either type of storm? Consider reading accounts of specific storms; what might one expect to happen in the path of a severe hurricane or a severe tornado?

When Alfred Wegener argued early last century that all continents had once been connected by had cracked and moved part, he had little to support his theory besides the shape of the continents. Today, much evidence supports the theory of continental drift, not the least of which is an accurate measurement of increasing or decreasing distances between fixed points on various plates. Not only are horizontal movements on the order of centimeters per year measureable with modern equipment, but the much slower lifting of mountains is also measured with great accuracy. What modern equipment is capable of making such fine measurements on shifting surfaces, and when was it developed? When a plate is said to move northeast at one inch per year, to what is the movement relative? Besides these readings, what other evidence have scientists found that all the Earth's landmasses were once connected? And which mountain ranges are still being formed, which are eroding, and when will the Great Rift Valley - a divergent fault - become an inland sea? 4. What is the significance of the age of the Earth for our understanding the processes that shape its surface? 5. dentify and describe the physical processes that shape the Earth's surface.

Part IThe Uniform Crime Reports page on the FBI government Web sit.docx

mosyrettcc

Part I The Uniform Crime Reports page on the FBI government Web site provides links for their annual Crime in the United States publications. Before you are able to view one of these reports, you are given the following disclaimer: Caution Against Ranking Each year when Crime in the United States is published, some entities use reported figures to compile rankings of cities and counties. These rough rankings provide no insight into the numerous variables that mold crime in a particular town, city, county, state, or region. Consequently, they lead to simplistic and/or incomplete analyses that often create misleading perceptions adversely affecting communities and their residents. Valid assessments are possible only with careful study and analysis of the range of unique conditions affecting each local law enforcement jurisdiction. The data user is, therefore, cautioned against comparing statistical data of individual reporting units from cities, metropolitan areas, states, or colleges or universities solely on the basis of their population coverage or student enrollment. Why do you think this cautionary notice is given before users are directed to the FBI's Crime in the United States publication? Expand on your viewpoint and find credible sources to support your rationale. If you would like to visit the Web site, go to http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/ucr.htm#cius. Part II Go to http://www.fbi.gov/ucr/ucr.htm#cius, again. Scroll down to the section entitled, Hate Crime Statistics , and click on " Hate Crime Data Collection Guidelines and Training Manual. " Using this training guide, complete the following: Define and describe the following terms: Prejudice Stereotype Discrimination Racism Sexism In-group Out-group Conformity Institutional supports Social categorization Point out the distinction between institutional prejudice and personal prejudice. Explain ways in which stereotypes can influence memory for and perceptions of events. What are common stereotypes of the specific minority groups explained in the training guide? How may one differentiate those stereotypes from accurate descriptions of the minority groups? Identify the principal psychological motivations underlying prejudice. Part III Based on the information you obtained in Parts I and II, do you think there could be racial or ethnic discrimination in arrests? Does cultural diversity have an impact on law enforcement practice? Provide evidence to support your answer accompanied by proper citation in APA format . 4-5 pages. Plagiarism must be less then 25% and it must include references .

mosyrettcc

Part I Answer in 100 words or more: Copyright laws are changing as digital sound, image, and video technologies evolve and become easier to use. Although the courts seem to clearly hold that it is illegal to copy media for profit, they are not as clear about the acceptability of modifications. For example, video editing software makes it relatively simple for people to clip out parts of movies they find to be objectionable for themselves or their children. Should it be legal to do so for personal use? What if an organization wanted to rent out such edited copies? What if DVD players and movies were set up so that the devices would edit and display the revised version on the fly? After you consider your own opinion, you might check the Web to see the latest information about this issue. PART II: Suppose that there was a nationwide database of electronic medical records, with strong security to try to prevent unauthorized access. What would be the benefits and costs of such a system?
