Papers On Law & Legal Systems

Legal and Ethical Issues of Informed Consent
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page report discusses informed consent as the mechanism through which people fully understand what is happening to them or their family members. It is used in reference to medical procedures, legal actions, and a variety of other areas in which one can claim that a patient or client was both informed of what was about to take place and either supported the action or had no objection to it. Ethical and legal issues come into play when one considers whether or not the person understood what he or she was being informed of or whether they simply gave their “consent” without knowing what else they could do. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Legal Aspects of the Faith-Based Initiative
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper assessing the legality of faith-based initiatives as promoted by the Bush administration. The merits and dangers of government support for faith-based initiatives could be discussed for so long that no one is able to accomplish any good, and still without arriving at any common ground to which all could freely subscribe. The bottom line in considering whether public funding of faith-based initiatives is legal lies in the first phrase of the First Amendment, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion.” Because Congress is not seeking to establish any religion, there should be no difficulty in supplying funding for sectarian organizations achieving real results in social pursuits. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
