Joseph Wambabugh: 'Truth' or Fiction?
[ send me this paper ]
(6 pp) Ralph Waldo Emerson asked, 'What is life
but the angle of vision? A man is measured by the
angle at which he looks at objects. What is life
but what a man is thinking of all day? This is his
fate and his employer. Knowing is the measure of
the man. By how much we know, so we are.'
This statement over a century ago, seems
particularly poignant considering police scandals
across the country. Is loss of humanity and self,
one of the by-products of a police career? Police
author Joseph Wambaugh portrays his characters with
the resulting human frailties of their work. We
will examine his 'fiction' to attempt to see how
stress affects this vital section of our workforce.

Justice Applied in Situations Where People are Treated Differently
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing the basis for justice in which people are treated differently. The basic principle of justice which was first formulated by Aristotle states that “equals should be treated equally and unequals unequally”. In terms of contemporary justice, this is similarly defined as “individuals should be treated the same, unless they differ in ways that are relevant to the situation in which they are involved”. There are several ways to look at justice. Firstly, most people understand that idea that justice means that “everybody should be treated the same”. Secondly, however, there are instances where justice can also apply in situations in which some people are treated differently. Situations in which people accept that justice has been served yet people are treated differently are usually based on circumstances in which need, desert, contribution and effort are the criteria.
