In this case entitled Gulash v. Stylarama there was a contract entered regarding the construction of pools. The pool was built and constructed but after a period of time the pool began to tilt, in which that’s when Gulash decided to sue Stylarama. The suit was that Stylarama violated provisions of article 2 of the UCC (Uniform Commercial Code). Due to the fact the cost of the materials and the labor were not written out in detail but instead of in a lump sum it would make it hard to come up with a sum for the exact cost of the damages. Furthermore, since this is a contract with a mix of goods and services, article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code would not apply the services only to the goods but the common law would to the services.

I think the number one cost of the American civil war was social because first off there was a lot of people dying in the war, over 600,000 Americans died in the civil war. The second cost of the American Civil war is political because the North and the South were divided. The south did not want to abolish slavery but the north did. There were two nations: Union and Liberty, and Union and Slavery. Abraham Lincoln who was running for president during the war wanted to end slavery but there was always disagreements.

Today, China is ranked as the nation with the largest population in the world. It is also a fact that China is amongst one of the countries whose economy is growing at a very rapid rate. It is quite imperative to note that capitalism has been the dominant in this nation, which enables it to not only strengthen, but also capture great regional as well as global influence. Even though China has been rediscovering its ancient tradition elements whilst repackaging them to be in line with modernity, it is evident that the visions embraced are very different from the ones in the West. The Celebrated Cases of Judge Dee is a perfect publication that sheds light to the reader on the various social, political and moral issues that existed in China decades ago and the ways of resolving them. Comparing the legal issues in China decades ago, a thin line can be drawn. This is inherently because nothing much has changed in terms social, political and moral perspectives. The celebrated cases of Judge Dee borrow a lot from the Chinese culture, which defines the standard morals and values for its people. Consequently, the legal system in this nation appears to rely wholly on the defined moral standards in reprimanding wrongdoers.
PART A: Martha Minow’s Five Unstated Assumptions About The Dilemma of Difference In Making All the Difference: Inclusion and Exclusion in American Law, Martha Minow outlines five unstated assumptions about the dilemma of difference and special privilege. The dilemma of difference is based on the idea that the identity of recognizing differences threatens the idea that we are all the same. In other words, the idea that everyone is the same leads to formal equality. The dilemma of difference is also about the “unstated point of reference,” which is when there is a failure to recognize difference as a problem.

The Lotus case garners attention due to the fact that it was among the first cases dealing with whether jurisdiction was assumed in accordance with principles of international law. While the Lotus case was heard in the context of criminal jurisdiction over a collision in the high seas, the Lotus principle has been applied in a variety of other cases in varying contexts. For this reason, the judgment of the Permanent Court of International Justice is critiqued for specifically answering only the question in the special agreement as the continued application of the Lotus Principle as a general principle in other contexts such as anti-trust regulations may lead to ambiguous results.
