the Netherlands are so unlike the prisons in the US that the former barely resemble the concept when compared to American cells. This paper will compare and contrast the corrections and sentencing practices of the United States, Germany and the Netherlands and provide recommendations to the U.S. Sentencing Commission to address the problem of mass incarceration in America.
As the Michael Moore documentary on the prison system in Norway shows, European approaches to corrections are much milder than they are in the U.S. This is because the philosophical underpinnings of the prison system are polar opposites. In the US the prison system is run like a concentration camp. In Norway, the approach to law and… Continue Reading...
use the following criteria points—1) ease of use, 2) content, 3) appeal, and 4) originality—to compare and contrast Facebook and Instagram and show why even though Facebook may have more registered users, Instagram is the better site according to these selected criteria.

Facebook was not designed as a mobile app in the beginning, though it has transitioned well to being an accessible site on handheld devices, smartphones and tablets. Instagram on the other hand was designed and still is an online app made for smartphone users. It was… Continue Reading...

take part in such a mass killing, has been the debate of historians. This paper will compare and contrast the arguments of Daniel J. Goldhagen and Christopher R. Browning -- both of whom give a distinct take on how such an atrocity could happen.
The main substance of Goldhagen's argument is that Germans were able to take part in the killings of the Jews because under Hitler and the National Socialist German Worker's Party, the idea that Jews were responsible for all of Germany's ills was promoted heavily.[footnoteRef:1] Thus, it was not an issue of ordinary Germans becoming or acting like monsters but rather them following… Continue Reading...

those items will, should, can or tend to interface well in certain situations. The first primary question to be answered in this compare and contrast would be how the data is presented in the two articles. The Brown article is basically a literature review that makes use of a slew of references and correlations with other research. There is a figure or two within this narrative and review. However, direct verbiage and assembly of different data points is the norm in the Brown article. The Krumm article is much more scientific in nature. It also relies on much more tables, data summaries and so forth. Like the Brown article, there is a… Continue Reading...

of policing and see how they have performed. Those two models are problem-oriented policing and intelligence-led policing. This essay will compare and contrast the two models and see if they are compatible with each other or if one model outperforms the other.

Under the model, there are expectations for the police to systematically examine issues within a community, search for potential solutions, and assess the… Continue Reading...

of the founding fathers and their contributions are important. Therefore, it can be helpful to compare and contrast three of them—such as Washington, Hamilton, and Franklin--to better appreciate the ways their diverse talents, skills, and philosophies helped to create a nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all people are created equal.
Not all the founding fathers became presidents, but all were leaders in their own ways by capitalizing on their strengths and areas of specialization. Two of the founding fathers that were not presidents but who were nevertheless instrumental to creating the United States were Benjamin Franklin and Alexander Hamilton. Benjamin… Continue Reading...

Generally, it can be said that the theory was solid and strong overall but that adapting that to the particular situation at hand was something that required some diligence and adjustments. This is to be expected as no cookie-cutter or general approach is going to work without at least some customization and details being hammered out. A key part of… Continue Reading...
