My Refuge and My Fortress

1Praise of a Song, by David. He that dwells in the help of the Highest, shall sojourn under the shelter of the God of heaven.

2He shall say to the Lord, Thou art my helper and my refuge: my God; I will hope in him.

3For he shall deliver thee from the snare of the hunters, from every troublesome matter.

4He shall overshadow thee with his shoulders, and thou shalt trust under his wings: his truth shall cover thee with a shield.

5Thou shalt not be afraid of terror by night; nor of the arrow flying by day;

6nor of the evil thing that walks in darkness; nor of calamity, and the evil spirit at noon-day.

7A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

8Only with thine eyes shalt thou observe and see the reward of sinners.

9For thou, O Lord, art my hope: thou, my soul, hast made the Most High thy refuge.

10No evils shall come upon thee, and no scourge shall draw nigh to thy dwelling.

11For he shall give his angels charge concerning thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12They shall bear thee up on their hands, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13Thou shalt tread on the asp and basilisk: and thou shalt trample on the lion and dragon.

14For he has hoped in me, and I will deliver him: I will protect him, because he has known my name.

15He shall call upon me, and I will hearken to him: I am with him in affliction; and I will deliver him, and glorify him.

16I will satisfy him with length of days, and shew him my salvation.

French Panama Canal Failure (1881-1889)

Under the charismatic leadership of Ferdinand de Lesseps, the French attempted to construct a sea-level canal in Panama.  DeLesseps, who had been successful in building the Suez canal against all odds, assured everyone that building a canal in Panama would be easier to make than the Suez Canal.  However, after $287 million in expenditures and also more than 20,000 deaths, the French attempt failed. The debacle was blame on poor administration and corruption, but the main causes more likely were yellow fever and malaria.

 

Jules Dingler, Director General of the French Company, arrived in Panama with his wife, son, daughter and her fiancé in 1883. He ordered a mansion built for his family and also their imported horses, at an estimated cost of $100,000. Within a few months, his daughter died of yellow fever, followed by his son, his daughter’s fiancé. Finally, his wife. Broken in mind and spirit, Dingler shot his stallions and returned to France without ever having occupied his lavish home, known thereafter as
la follie a Dingler (Dingler’s folly).

Director General of Works and Chief Engineer Jules A. Dingler (sitting to the left with an umbrella) with a group of french engineers. Within a month after their arrival in Panama in 1886, thirteen of thirty enginners died, presumably of yellow fever. The Latin American Library, Tulane University.

Your paper topic must address a question related to the study of media law. At the same time, there are many media law issues that we do not cover in class.

1.     Firstly, develop a topic concerning a current issue in mass media law. There are a vast number of possible topics. If you don’t have a topic in mind, spend some time reading news magazines, trade publications, newspapers and also other general interest publication.

My topic is Regulation of Electronic Media

2.    Secondly, frame your topic in the form of a question or a conclusion: “Should the federal government have the power to require pre-publication review as a condition of employment?” or “The Maryland Supreme Court’s privacy decisions seriously threaten the individual’s right to privacy.” or “Government should have the power to prohibit pornographic expression”.

My question:  Should the FCC have the right to set uniform national standards and also have the power to prevent any city from establishing different standards?  Why and why not?

3.     Thirdly, do enough research to provide adequate understanding of the topic. There is no magic number of sources, but experience suggests that a solid research effort will enhance your paper. The best papers are built on a foundation of good research. Your research may include extensive use of legal resources, but you are not required to make extensive use of legal materials.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s book “The Social Contract”

Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s book “The Social Contract”

This is a paper that is focusing on the reading of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s book “The Social Contract”. The paper also provides additional information to use in the writing of the assignment paper. Below is the assessment description to follow:

Reading of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s book “The Social Contract”

Purpose

This assignment allows you to further your research skills. Building on Enlightenment philosophies that are the foundation of the American government, you will construct an argument about the role of government in ensuring public health. To do this, you will research arguments for and against public health policies related to COVID-19. You will practice integration of sources, as well as MLA citation of those sources.

Required Reading

For this assignment, you will read Book I of Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s The Social Contract. You will also view videos explaining the philosophies of Thomas Hobbes and John Locke.

For your research, you will need to consult newspapers and magazines to gain an understanding of the controversies surrounding public health decrees, as well as websites of county, state, or federal health agencies.

Background

Americans have confronted several issues in 2020: systemic racism, climate change, economic destabilization, and global pandemic. Our nation has been divided over these issues and how best to address them, and these issues figured prominently in this year’s presidential election.

As we struggle with how best to control the pandemic, issues of individual freedoms are being weighed against the public good. Some countries chose to shut down entirely, while others (Sweden) opted to maintain status quo in favor of developing “herd immunity.” Across the U.S., states issued “safer at home” orders, with some mandating masks. In California, every county is assigned a colored tier that dictates which types of businesses and institutions can reopen.

In a country that prizes laissez-faire capitalism, these public health orders do not go unchallenged. Also, in Orange County, for example, there have been multiple protests and refusals to wear masks in public. Several religious leaders cite the separation of church and state to justify defying public health orders against congregating indoors.

The California “Blueprint for a Safer Economy” goes further than many others in its efforts to mitigate the disproportionate impact COVID-19 has had on some communities (https://covid19.ca.gov/safer-economy/
(Links to an external site.)
). In addition to looking at positivity and hospitalization rates, counties are assess on a health equity metric. This, too, has caused consternation among people in communities that have lower positivity rates.

Writing Task

In a 1500- to 2000-word essay that incorporates four to six sources, addresses the following question:

WHAT ROLE SHOULD THE GOVERNMENT PLAY IN ENSURING PUBLIC HEALTH?

Please be sure to cite all your sources using MLA format, both in-text and on a Works Cited page.

You are to conduct an in-depth interview with someone directly involved with the case

(original investigator, regional historian, victim, etc.) or an expert on the key type of evidence.

 

Your analysis of the case, the evidence, its original management and, as the investigator, where you would take it?  It is essential you support your stance with details.  Why?  Details, details, details.
