Abstract
This paper examines the Confrontation Clause of the Sixth Amendment to the US Constitution, which discusses the right of an accused person to cross examine his accuser. The paper discusses the history of the Confrontation Clause and looks at the use of the Confrontation Clause in past and present court rooms. It also provides a few case examples of how the Confrontation Clause is put into practice.
From the Paper
"The use of the Confrontation Clause in past and present court rooms has served the court system well although when to use it and often times how and when it applies has proven to be a little blurry. The Confrontation Clause allows accused defendants to cross examine their accusers to gain as much insight as possible as to the factuality of their accusations except in situations where a child, person on their death bed, or a person who is deceased in concerned then testimony collect by law enforcement or stated in previous court cases is admitted in lieu of personal account. This clause will in effect prevent anyone from simply accusing us of a crime without the chance to defend ourselves in front of our accuser."

Abstract
This paper explains that victims of sexual abuse are typically in a very fragile state so that they must be treated with the utmost care. The paper further explains that this must be taken into consideration when using confrontation to deal with victims of sexual abuse. The paper looks at when and how confrontation should be used, and what can be gained by its use. The dangers inherent in using confrontation are also pointed out.
From the Paper
"Victims of sexual abuse may be in a very fragile state emotionally and so must be treated with the utmost care. Social workers have the responsibility of establishing and maintaining an appropriate therapeutic relationship with their clients and paying careful attention to the management of boundaries between the two. The social worker must recognize that the client may be influenced by their opinions, conjecture or suggestions and so must take care in expressing them. The social worker must not minimize the power and influence they have on..."

Abstract
This paper looks at why and how specialised skills in interviewing have been developed in the treatment of offenders to prevent recidivism. It examines confrontational and motivational techniques in working with offenders and discusses how these techniques are employed and how they work. It also evaluates the benefits and hindrances of these techniques and assesses which technique is more beneficial to preventing offending behaviour.
From the Paper
"Research carried out in the 1970's argued that imprisonment and rehabilitative with offenders did not make a significant change to the recidivism rates of offenders and this led to more critical analysis which showed that some interventions could work. The "Criminal Justice Act 1991" put more impetus to this by reconstructing the sentencing framework and recommending community sentencing for offenders unless the offence was serious enough to justify a prison sentence. "Punitive measures have done little to arrest the increase in crime and it is difficult to demonstrate that punishment achieves the effect of deterring offenders from re-offending" (McGuire 1995 cited HTO Davies, S Nutley and P Smith 2001 p93) Research showed that offender treatment programmes could work to reduce rates of re-offending."

Abstract
This analytical essay explores how Paul, the main character in Cather's "Paul's Case" is alienated, ostracized, and made to live the life of an outsider. The author examines Paul's ability to confront dominant culture on numerous social fronts and scrutinizes society's role within the context of the story.
From the Paper
"That artistic spirit is ignored because Paul's community is dominated by those who value hard, self-sustaining work, above all else. Paul's father is always holding up examples that Paul might one day follow. These are the men who find a steady job, settle down, and start a family. In this drive for success and family, there is no room for the artistic or abstract. In the minds of these men, they merely present obstacles impeding even greater success. This success-driven culture dominates Paul's existence, impressing itself upon much of what he sees. Paul is living what he considers to be a repulsive and mundane life on Cordelia Street. That culture not only dominates Paul, but also his culture.
"In contrast to Cordelia Street, Paul's own culture is one of the artistic, the beautiful, the pleasant and the abstract. Depending upon the interpretation of the reader, Paul might also be considered a homosexual, contributing even more to his cultural identity. Paul is said to have "[fallen] in with a wild San Francisco boy" (109). Although never directly stated, sexual orientation is strongly implied. It is no wonder that Paul's culture was dominated."

Conclusion
From the Paper
"Rapid and accelerating developments in information and communications technology have added much to the strength and extent of its effects. The impact of globalisation extends to human resources management (HRM): developing new professional and occupational sectors, improved knowledge, research, skills and competencies. At the same time, it is increasing competition, performance requirements and the demand for active participation in social development. Confronting the challenges of globalisation requires the design of structural strategies and organisational policies to facilitate the empowerment of employees, redesigning jobs, adopting flexible employment options and utilising technology with the knowledge available . While some western researchers attempt to pinpoint the most significant challenges confronting HRM as globalisation increases, HR professionals in the Arab world in general and Saudi Arabia in particular perceive an urgent need to recognise such challenges and highlight them for both researchers and managerial leaders, so as to soften their impact on civil service organisations in general and on HRM functions in particular, in addition to developing appropriate strategies for confronting globalisation itself and lessening its influence."

Abstract
This paper discusses the essays that are compiled in "Muy Macho: Latino Men Confront Their Manhood," edited by R. Gonzalez. It discusses the content of the specific essays, "I'm the King: The Macho Image" by Rudolfo Anaya and "The Puerto Rican Dummy and the Merciful Son" by Martin Espada. The paper focuses on the relationship between fathers and sons and the outcomes that may be present when sons grow up without fathers.
From the Paper
"There is also a stigma often associated with children that do not have fathers. There seems to be the automatic assumption that these children will be delinquents. In some cases it is evident that this assumption can be extremely detrimental and damage the will of children that may want to rise above their circumstances. After all there are many people that have gone on to live productive lives in spite of the fact that they grew up without a father. However, people who do rise above their situation quite often have positive male influences such as a teacher, uncle or community leaders. As such it is safe to assume that positive male influences and fathers in particular are desperately needed in our society."

Abstract
The paper discusses how nuclear saber rattling between India and Pakistan, specifically over the continuing conflict in Kashmir, will continue to be a threat toward security for the region. The paper provides an examination of the historical and ideological roots of the conflict, and its contemporary nuclear manifestation, to indicate that resolution will not be easy. As such, the paper asserts that its effect on the business climate should be taken quite seriously.
From the Paper
"Some analysts believe that the threat of mutual destruction is enough to stave off full-scale war between nations. These critics (Parris, 2002) argue that the nuclear arsenals now possessed by India and Pakistan represent a strong incentive toward stabilization of the region. Unfortunately, while this thesis could be applied after the fact to US-Soviet relations during the Cold War, the situation on the Indian subcontinent is quite different. Nuclear saber rattling, specifically over the continuing conflict in Kashmir, will continue to be a threat toward..."

Abstract
This paper examines the historical and ideological roots of the conflict between India and Pakistan and its contemporary nuclear manifestation. It discusses how this nuclear saber rattling, specifically over the continuing conflict in Kashmir, will continue to be a threat toward security for the region and how there is no likely resolution in the near future. It also analyzes the implications for the business community.
From the Paper
"Both India and Pakistan tested nuclear devices in May 1998 (Ganguly, 2002). This was a critical turning point in the political relations between Indian and Pakistan. Further it represents one of the most significant contemporary issues facing India. That the nuclear conflict is constructed on an historical conflict of control of the Kashmir region is only the background of the issue. Kashmir is a territory essentially caught in the middle of nuclear "saber rattling" (Oberoi, 2001). The real problem facing political stability in the region at this point is the proliferation of nuclear arms in both India and Pakistan. "

Abstract
This paper discusses strategic planning and how it is different from long-range and other forms of planning, the issues confronted by managers attempting organizational change, identifying strengths, weaknesses, and competencies of an organization in the planning process, and the relationship between mission statement, planned and unplanned change.
From the Paper
"Strategic planning is a management tool that is used to help an organization do a better job: to help focus its energy and to ensure that all members of the organization are working toward the same goals; to assess and adjust the organization's direction in response to a changing environment. It may thus be defined as "the process by which the guiding members of an organization envision its future and develop the necessary procedures and operations to achieve that future." (Goodstein, et al, 1993)."
