In your opinion, does there need to be a revision to copyright law that updates and reflects the more current music world today?
Copyright of both sound recording and compositions have been equally challenged in the past 50 years. Some challenges have included music sampling, music licensed and used on social media platforms, and recent court battles brought on by the Marvin Gaye estate. And yet the Copyright Act of 1976 is still the statutory law that protects copyrighted work in the USA today.
In your opinion, does there need to be a revision to copyright law that updates and reflects the more current music world today? If so, what parts of the current copyright law need to be updated and why?
Describe the historical narrative regarding the nation-building process.
• geographical location
• historical background
• demographic statistics
• population
• economic development and resources (natural)
• political situation
• health-related statistics
Good sources for this type of information are the CIA World Factbook, U.S. Department of State, or United States embassy websites for your chosen country.
The questions you should address when writing your final paper are as follows:
1 Describe the historical narrative regarding the nation-building process. What strategies did intellectuals, politicians, businessmen and/or other elites employ in their efforts to construct a modern nation?
2 Did the masses fit within the construct of the nation as constructed by elites? What were the mechanisms employed by the government and the citizenry to incorporate all elements of the population into the nation?
3 Popular culture has often served as a vehicle by which non-elites have transformed the national character of a nation. Describe the development of popular culture in the nation. How does the incorporation of cultural elements into the national identity discourse promote/prohibit homogeneity? Is the nation’s strategy consistent with models discussed in class?
4 What role (if any) does the United States play in the nation-building process? U.S. influence could be political (military intervention, advisement, diplomacy), economic (corporate expansion, aid), or cultural (music, film, dress, the arts, etc.).
5 Has the nation-building process been successful? What factors have contributed to that success? Or failure?
What information would you utilize and why would you use it?
Imagine that President Biden and Kamala Harris has contacted you because they know you are in a Criminology course. They want you to do a presentation in front of the presidential cabinet, and it is your job to explain to them what are the problems facing the Criminal Justice System, the history of the Criminal Justice System, and how Racism, Institutional Discrimination and Social Injustice affect it, and society in general. You need to help them understand why sociology matters.
They want to put a panel together to understand anything that hinders social justice, economic justice, racial justice, gender justice, legal justice and need your sociological expertise. Use the information in this class to explain to them about what you have learned about the Criminal Justice System focusing on Michelle Alexander’s book, The New Jim Crow. What information would you utilize and why would you use it? Also use Chapter 12, Political Crime and Terrorism, and help the presidential cabinet understand how this chapter further illustrates how this society is in need of reform.
How will this help them understand what has been hidden and why a paradigm shift is needed? If the Presidential Cabinet could give you an unlimited supply of money, racial conscious people to work with, and any resources you needed and asked you to devise a plan that could clean up the Criminal Justice System and its aftermath, what would you do? How would you use your resources and money to accomplish this?
Note: You can also make references to any films and other books, but Michelle Alexander’s book should be used the most. You must use information from each chapter. When you reference Alexander state what chapter you are getting the information from. (For instance you can say in chapter 1 Alexander makes this argument…….)

Explain how patients with no health insurance coverage impact other patients, providers, and the quality of healthcare services in this country.
Unit outcomes addressed in this Assignment:
Describe the nature of reform in the United States and the goals of healthcare reform.
Explain policymaking and legal process that underpin the individual health care and public health systems.
Course Outcomes assessed/addressed in this Assignment:
HA415-2: Analyze the impact of healthcare reform on insurance coverage and financing alternatives.
GEL-1.02: Demonstrate college-level communication through the composition of original materials in Standard English.
Health insurance coverage gives Americans and their health providers protection against the financial risk associated with the costs of healthcare and can help improve well-being. Healthcare reform is a daunting challenge for U.S. policymakers. The people want change but offer a little consensus on how to achieve it. Government action seems to be inevitable, but the extent of the action is likely to fall far short of what anyone could have imagined shortly after the legislation was first introduced in 1993. However, it is unlikely that any comprehensive plan for a government takeover of healthcare delivery will ever happen. Instead, there will probably be incremental reforms to add coverage and access to groups at the margin.
Write an expository essay that explores where people get their health insurance and include the data based on each level in the United States and the financial protection provided by that coverage. For example, what percent of the population gets their insurance from employers, Medicare, etc.? (This is NOT about managed care, nor the levels of coverage associated with the ACA/Obamacare).
Examine the source of health insurance coverage and the financial effect of that cost on the groups providing that coverage.
Explain how patients with no health insurance coverage impact other patients, providers, and the quality of healthcare services in this country.
Recommend a policy course of action to increase the quantity and quality of health insurance in the United States that would be the fairest and equitable to all stakeholder groups.
What do you think would be the best course of action to help improve this situation?
