...Mass migration to Europe and its positive and negative implications – Sharing economy Introduction The hotel industry has been strongly growing recently, overcame many events to make us believe that they will not stop adapting to the new environments. Practicing economics activities helps the industry to explain the change of the environment and plan the solutions in the most efficient way. In this report, I will state two of the most recent events which are the mass migration to Europe and also with the term sharing economy, together with its impacts to the hotel industry under economic perspective. Development Mass migration to Europe and its positive and negative implications Migration means the movement of people from one place to another place, temporary or permanent, volunteered or forced, internal or international (eschooltoday, 2014). People move for different reasons: move to work in another country, move for a better of life, escape from natural disasters or human wars, etc. 2015 was an alarming and distressing year to the world because of many wars and terrorism events happened.

...Illegal Immigration Introduction The relationship between illegal immigration and crime is an extremely controversial and politically fueled issue. Both immigrations and crime are perceived as threats to public safety and illegal immigrants are easy targets for blame by society. This holds true in he City of Costa Mesa and in Orange County as a whole. Specifically, the Costa Mesa Police Department and the Orange County Sheriff Office has implemented policy to check the immigration status of individuals arrested for serious crimes. This policy has an affect, most notably, on the large Hispanic community living in Costa Mesa and the greater Orange County area. Many community social services agencies are caught in the middle of this politically sensitive issue, as they provide services to residents, many illegal immigrants. This social welfare policy has created a great divide between many within the community and society as a whole. Immigration has become a major issue in both national and local politics with many political officials taking both sides of the issues. Republicans and democrats are split on this issue, which has become embedded in the fight for terrorism. A effort to protect this country from future attacks from terrorist has translated to a local level of enforcing immigration laws. In an effort to decrease criminal activity in local communities, Costa Mesa and Orange County officials has taken on the issue of illegal immigration in their communities...

...POLITICAL SCIENCE The Rise of Far Right in Europe An analysis based on the article “Far right on rise in Europe” published in “THE GUARDIAN” a study by Demos Thinktank. When thinking of the French presidential elections one may even disregard the fact that Mr.Hollande won and pay more attention to the significantly high score of Mrs.Marine Lepen. Indeed, the latter representing the Far Right Movement arrived third with 17.90%, just behind the Right Movement represented by Mr. Sarkozy with 27.18% and the Left Movement represented by the winner Mr. Hollande with 28.63%. This is extremely high when we know that generally in France, the winner party only scores on average 52%. Some people wonder why this extreme conservative party is gaining more and more credit among French citizens. wasn’t the idea of Human Rights born in France? Isn’t France known for its “liberty, equality, fraternity”? What happened to the country of freedom? In my opinion the three main events that led up to this delicate situation are: the recent economical crisis, the role of Media, and the carelessness of racist discourse. Before I begin my analysis, it is important to say that the support for the Far Right Movement is not exclusive to France but also to several European countries such as Austria, Germany or Switzerland as mentioned in the article. However, I will be essentially focusing on France since it is dear to my heart as I was born and raised there. First, the economic crisis...

...National Healthcare and Immigration Roberto Macedo ITT Tech Mr. Berndt EN1320 Composition I Healthcare and Immigration What is healthcare? Healthcare is a service that is supposed to be provided to a country’s citizens that the U.S., for some reason, cannot get right (shocker!). Meanwhile, Canada has no problem handing medical care to its citizens for free, that’s right free. Why can’t the U.S. be as caring as Canada? On a side note I hope they take Bieber back. The people (the ones that aren’t fanatically crazy for him because of raging teenage hormones) of the U.S. do not want his presence here and no longer will we the people suffer from headaches due to his annoyance. No longer will important political or non-political events that are being streamed by news media (by which news stations consider “breaking news”) be interrupted. At this very moment my family and I have no medical insurance, thus resulting in $3000 of medical bills that I am not paying simply put “because I don’t feel like paying 3 grand for a f**king checkup that tells me my spouse has depression problems once every so often, it’s a given.” What I do know for sure is my son is eligible for Nevada Checkup; however, seeing that the online healthcare system that was supposed to make applying for medical insurance so easy for all of its U.S. citizens just happened to be in a few nice words “a piece of s**t!” My son (who is turning one this 24th of February) still has no insurance. I have been...

...Global Crimes Analysis University of Phoenix Cynthia Butler CJA/394 April 16, 2012 This paper will identify the various major global crimes and criminal issues that affect national and international criminal justice systems and processes. In addition, there will be a comparison and contrast of the different criminal justice systems and how they have addressed major global crimes and criminal issues. Global crime is an issue that threatens the safety and security of people all over the world. Global crime can be international drug smuggling operations, human trafficking, or international prostitution rings. Weapons trading are also a problem that exists all over the world. There are always concerns of rogue nations selling nuclear weapons to other nations that do not follow the guidelines of the world community. In the international community, human trafficking has become an issue that is spiraling out of control. The "International Trafficking" (2010) website cites that victims of this crime are usually trafficked both within the countries borders and inside other countries borders. Human trafficking happens in different ways, sex trafficking occurs all over the world, while Burma traffics children to be soldiers. The trafficking crimes are not contained to other countries as Florida has been known to have forced labor practices within the citrus fields. Lucas (2011) addresses the difficulties in securing weapons caches that can be...

...figures to immigrants This newspaper article that I found online, written by Daniel Shoer Roth of the Miami Herald newspaper, shows his research on the subject of police brutality towards immigrants/refugees. it also shows some of his personal outlooks on the topic along with some views of some of the citizens in Miami that he interviewed. he talks on a national and local level about , biased policing, unconstitutional searches and seizures and the use of excessive force when dealing with ethnic groups. many cases have been documented in Miami-Dade County in which DEA agents and local police officers have arrested U.S. citizens with foreign last names to interrogate them about their citizenship. Foreigners are required to carry immigration papers, green cards, at all times. But natural born U.S. citizens are not required to carry papers proving citizenship. local police departments deny having policies that encourage the harassment of immigrants, but these attacks show how law-enforcement policies are not entirely respected by the officers. The enforcement program, Secure Communities, is sometimes considered a useless tool in bringing out dangerous foreign criminals, also gives full power to criminals and gives them power to commit abuse against our community. It also endangers any legal American who may be a victim of a crime witnessed by an immigrant/refugee who is scared of reporting it for fear of deportation.The program promotes racial profiling of any person who...
