Write a Short Essay on the Value of Time

History
There is a saying “Time and tide waits for none”. The saying is indeed true. Time waits for none. It comes and goes. Time is absolutely unbound able. Neither money nor position can buy it. Nothing on earth can subdue or conquer it.The most remarkable feature of time is its preciousness. Its value is unfathomable and its power is inestimable. Its potential is something which we cannot calculate. A minute is enough to win a victory. A second is enough to make you the richest man in the world.

The relationship between Political Science and Social Anthropology

Asia
On principle, social anthropology is concerned with the social struc­ture and culture of the primitive peoples. Social anthropology, despite its variants in the US, Europe and Asia, restricts itself to the study of the cultural and social ways of life of the people. On the other hand, quite opposite to the anthropological tradition, politics and for that matter political science is concerned with power and authority.

This does not take into consideration the empirical research position of the relationship of the two…

Short Essay on Capital Punishment

Canada
Capital punishment, also called as the death penalty, is the putting to death of a convicted criminal by the state as punishment for crimes that are listed as capital offenses.It is a cruel form of punishment which has been abolished in many countries. It is a brutal, inhuman, out-of-date concept that is carried out in the name of justice by a so- called civilized society. ADVERTISEMENTS: The death penalty exercises the most primal instinct to kill and extract revenge. While it claims to be an upright alternative for dealing with convicted criminals, it is in reality, hypocritical and cruel.It’s a paradox-the very society that loathes the act of murdering will resort to righteously murdering the criminal who committed the murder.

Essay on Development by Statutes of Constitution

United States
No constitution is complete by itself and nowhere has an attempt ever been made to reduce all details into writing. The framers of a constitution always leave room for the system to grow.Chief Justice Marshall declared in McCulloch v. Maryland that a constitution is “intended to endure for ages to come, and consequently, to be adapted to the various crises of human affairs.To have prescribed the means to which government should, in all future time, execute its powers, would have been to change, entirely, the character of the instrument and give it the properties of a legal code. It would have been an unwise attempt to provide, by immutable rules, for exigencies which, if foreseen at all, must have been seen dimly, and which can best be provided for as…

If for example, you are a good student and…
