Demise of Microsoft?
[ send me this paper ]
A 12 page paper discussing implications of the verdict in the Microsoft antitrust case. Attacks by both the government and Microsoft's would-be competitors have escalated, and it appears that Microsoft will lose its long-term battle. Arguments of both the government and the competition are weak, but common sense has not been known to reign in these days. That Microsoft could cease to exist as we know it because of a poor product that was so bad the company had to give it away with something else is unconscionable, but the threat is nevertheless very real. It is likely that we will be seeing a far different face in software development and publishing within the decade. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Differing Levels of Accountability and Responsibility For Individual Professions
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page discussion of the observation that liability one faces for their actions often varies according to the particulars of the situation. Society holds some individuals and professions to higher standards of legal accountability and responsibility than we do other individuals and professions. This variance is justified by the potential impact an action can have. When a reporter makes a mistake in a magazine article, for example, you can run a correction but when a health care worker makes a mistake someone’s life might hang in the balance. Differing levels of accountability are thus justified by the particulars of a situation. The author provides additional examples of corporate responsibility to illustrate the differences in compliance-based verses value-based approach to accountability. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Dilemmas with Artificial Insemination
[ send me this paper ]
A 16 page paper focusing on whether the child resulting from artificial insemination could sue for child support in the future. Artificial insemination is not a new concept. It has been used for years for couples who have not been able to conceive on their own; more recently single women are seeking motherhood through this route. Couples still represent 60 percent of sperm banks’ customers, but this statistic also reveals that 40 percent of their customers are single women. Purchasers of sperm sign contracts waiving any right to seek financial support in the future, but there is strong growth in artificial insemination that does not use the services of a sperm bank and is not protected from that claim. Further, laws are exercised according to interpretation at the time. If social values shift over time, then the contracts signed today could be ruled as being worthless in the future. It is not likely today that a donor will be held to be responsible for a child financially, but that could change in the future. Bibliography lists 11 sources. Includes a 1-page research proposal.

Discrimination Of Women In Law Enforcement
[ send me this paper ]
11 pages in length. Gender inequity is a social ill that even now as mankind moves into the twenty-first century is still as prevalent as it was fifty years ago. Even though the feminist movement garnered some tremendous strides for gender discrimination in developed countries, it has not had a noticeable impact upon certain industries. Law enforcement and the military are two of the most conspicuous of all labor forces where gender discrimination continues to be at the forefront of staffing issues, mainly because of the twofold reasoning that claims 1) the female physique does not conform to relatively new policies pertaining to strength and weight-to-height ratios, and 2) women fall under the main category of minority, a subpopulation that has not historically performed as well as their more genetically entitled male counterparts.
