If a similar dispute has been resolved in the past, the court is bound (having a moral or legal duty to do something) to follow the reasoning used in the prior decision. When there is no precedent with similar facts then the judge has to make decision based on legal principles and this decision will be a precedent for other courts to follow. Another important aspect of common law is equity. Courts of equity recognized rights that were not enforced in common law. For example in a breach of contract claim the court of equity forced the other party to fulfill a contract and common law court forced the other party to pay damages. In 1873 the two systems were unified. Sometimes governments make new laws which are called statutes (a law that has been formally approved and written down) to modify or clarify the common law, or to make rules where none existed before. This was a short overview of common law. 4

Edulugude võistlus Success-story competition „Small Town Inhabitants – Educated or Uneducated People“ To begin with, my childhood was quite ordinary, I spent a lot of time in my country home, spending most of my time playing. I have been raised by my mother. As I grew older, I got more and more interested in different things. At one point it occured to me that when I want to be successful in some field, then I really have to educate myself in that filed.When my friends have characterised me then they have mainly mentioned that I am an active person, who has been successful in different fields. I still do not think I am succesful because it is a really complicated definition, but I know that I have succeeded in doing several things. For me the key is my so called success has been that when dealing with a particular thing I have tried to delve into the subject as deep as possible. Firstly, when we are talking about success and asking the question who is a succesful person, we h

THE CAPITALIST NIGER Chika Onyeani ………………………Every African must internalise this book - period….DAA INTRODUCTION In October 1960, Nigeria received its independence from Britain. By then, Ghana the former Gold Coast had been independent for three years under the great Osagyefo Kwame Nkumah. It was a time for celebrating Africa’s coming of age, as more and more African countries received their independence either from Britain or France. It was especially a poignant time for Africa, as then British Prime Minister Harold McMillan articulated his now famous “winds of change” sweeping Africa. We had high hopes for Africa, for the Black race, that the insidious imposition of foreign rule on us, the looting of Africa’s natural resources by our colonial masters accorded us would be things of history. That is more than forty years ago. Unfortunately, the promise of independence has not been fulfilled. Today, Africa has become more desolate; there is more starvation
An analysis of the problem of Political Power Written by: Katre Kikkas Introduction It is said that in the political philosophy there are only two questions: ,,Who can have what?" and ,,Who will decide over it?". It is not exactly like that but it is quite close to the trough, to begin with. The first question includes material amenity's, and dividing rights and liberties.(Wolff, 1996) What is power? It is ability to influence others to do something they otherwise would not. Also, others can be affected with threats and force. (Kilp, 2010) Political power includes also right to force the others and to punish them if they disobey. Who should have that kind of power? Actually the political power is quite mysterious by itself. If someone has legitimate political power over me then he or she has a right to force me to do things that they want
According to one authority on the Chinese social media platform Weibo, two hashtags, loosely translated to “Chinese Tourists Abused by Swedish Police” and “Swedish TV Show Insults China”, received more than 220 million views, making it one of the most read issues on the platform for the year. The Chinese government reacted instantly because of social media furore and accused Swedish police of brutality and violenting the basic human rights. The timing of the statement made clear that this was a response due to pressure from social media, far more than concerns for the safety of the family involved. (T. Olsen-Boyd, 2019) It is a good example of where media and public opinion is forcing the government to act in a certain way and to respond to public opinion. Media influences can have also negative consequences. For example, when the media
