American Government: Constitutional Foundations

American Government: Constitutional Foundations - Learn how early American politics informed the U.S. Constitution and why its promise of liberty and equality has yet to be fully realized. About this course “We the People” are the opening words of the U.S. Constitution, yet the original document did not give citizens much say in the election of their officials. Though some of those issues have been addressed, substantial barriers—gerrymandering, voter registration, and voter ID laws—still restrain the power of the vote. Why? How can a country, founded more than 200 years ago on the ideals of liberty, equality, and individualism, still struggle to empower all of its citizens equally? This course explores the origins of U.S. political culture, how that culture informed the Constitution, and how that framework continues to influence the country’s politics and policies. We will examine the Constitution’s provisions for limited government, the division of power between the federal and state governments, and the forces that have made federalism a source of political conflict and change. We will address how the Constitution not only established the structure of the U.S. government but guarantees personal freedoms and civil rights. These rights have been challenged and expanded in significant Supreme Court cases, which will help to illustrate how historically disadvantaged groups have struggled to realize the 14th Amendment's promise of equality. Overview Duration 4 weeks long Time Commitment 2-4 hours per week Pace Self-paced Subject Social Sciences Collection U.S. Government Course English Video Transcript English Difficulty Introductory Credit Audit for Free Add a Verified Certificate for $99 Platform edX Topics U. S. History, Law, Justice, Political Sciences, Government What you'll learn The foundations of the American political culture How the Constitution represented the idea of “limited government” Why the Constitution’s framers felt it necessary to limit the popular influence The history of federalism as a constitutional issue How power is divided between the federal and state governments What individual rights are held by today’s Americans Which policies have expanded the rights of disadvantaged groups Syllabus Week 1: Political Culture This session will explore the origins of the nation’s political culture, its embrace by each succeeding generation of Americans, and its continuing influence on the nation’s politics and policies. U.S. welfare and education policy will be used to illustrate that influence. The session also highlights the nature of politics—the process through which society settles its conflicts over scarce resources and conflicting values. Week 2: Limited Government This session will examine the Constitution’s provisions for limited government and then explore the extent to which these provisions have curbed constitutional abuses of power. The main points of the session will be reinforced by examining a set of cases, including the Watergate scandal, the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II, and the Bush Administration’s handling of enemy detainees after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. Week 3: Representative Government This session will explore the reasons that the framers felt it necessary to limit popular influence, will describe how and why the original system changed, and will look at contemporary barriers—gerrymandering, voter registration, and voter ID laws—that inhibit voting. Week 4: Federalism The session will explain the division of power between the federal and state governments and also explain how broadly worded constitutional clauses, partisan differences, and changing national needs have combined to make federalism a source of political conflict and change. Among the cases explored in this session is the constitutional dispute provoked by the 2010 healthcare reform act. Week 5: Civil Liberties This session will examine these developments and explain the individual rights held by today’s Americans. Major Supreme Court rulings—such as those relating to free speech and protection from unreasonable search and seizure—will be discussed as a means of clarifying Americans’ civil liberties. Week 6: Civil Rights This session will focus on three policies that have been instrumental in expanding the rights and opportunities of disadvantaged groups: the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause, the 1964 Civil Rights Act, and affirmative action. The last of these policies have been particularly contentious and we’ll take a close look at it, including a recent Supreme Court ruling on a case involving the University of Texas at Austin.

Bioethics: The Law, Medicine, and Ethics of Reproductive Technologies and Genetics

Bioethics: The Law, Medicine, and Ethics of Reproductive Technologies and Genetics (An introduction to the study of bioethics and the application of legal and ethical reasoning). BY Harvard University, Cambridge via Edx. About this course Bioethics provides an overview of the legal, medical, and ethical questions around reproduction and human genetics and how to apply legal reasoning to these questions. This law course includes interviews with individuals who have used surrogacy and sperm donation, with medical professionals who are experts in current reproductive technologies like In Vitro Fertilization and Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis, and bioethicists and journalists who study the ownership and use of genetic information within human tissue. Additional Harvard colleagues will also share with you their thoughts on topics such as disability law as it relates to reproductive technology. While the law and ethics surrounding these technologies are a central component to this course, we also show you examples of the deeply personal and human side of these issues. Throughout the course, and with the help of law students, we will discuss leading legal cases in this field, which will illuminate the types of questions the law has struggled with – stretching and evolving over time. From the famous Baby M surrogacy case to cases on the paternity of sperm donors, to a case related to the ownership of human tissue turned into a commercial product, and others. We will show you the ethical, legal, and rhetorical underpinnings, which have served as the basis for various court decisions over the past 20 or 30 years. We will also explore potential future technologies and their implications for society: genetic enhancements to increase our intelligence, let us live a hundred years longer, or make us immune to diseases – and the possibility of creating animal-human hybrids, for example, a mouse with a humanized brain. The content within this course is intended to be instructive, and show how legal reasoning has been applied or could be applied, to questions related to parenthood, reproduction, and other issues surrounding human genetic material. The material organized within this course should be considered an authoritative overview but is not intended to serve as medical or legal advice.

DL-506 Collective Management of copyright and related rights for Policy Makers

Policymakers have a direct role in legislation and enforcement. The primary role of policymakers is to lay down the legislative framework for copyright and collective management. In some countries, they can also have a supervisory role in relation to collective management. This course is an introduction to policy-making relying on the three main elements of a well-functioning copyright system, i.e., legislation, enforcement and management of rights. Management of rights is mostly the task of the private sector, but in cases where legislation includes special stipulations on collective management, policymakers have a direct role, too. The main objective of this course is to examine different legislative frameworks for collective management and study what role Government can play in the collective management of rights. It also raises awareness of how creators, users, legislators and society at large benefit from the system of collective management in music and sound recordings, film and audiovisual, print and publishing, visual arts and photography, and dramatic works. Academic support is provided by experienced tutors who are expert practitioners in the field of collective management. Basic Information Venue: Online Language: English Duration: 40 hours Tutored: Yes Certificate: Yes Course administrator: DL506E.academy@wipo.int Final Exam and Certificate There is a written final exam at the end of this course for which participants are required to compose written responses to a series of questions within a specified timeframe and submit their responses, via the eLearning platform, to their tutors for marking.

DL-503 Collective Management of Copyright and Related Rights for Collective Management Organization (CMOs)[DL503E21S1]

This course, targeted at anyone intending to learn in-depth about collective management and in particular (CMOs), aims at raising awareness of how creators, users, legislators and society at large benefit from the system of collective management. It covers the workings of collective management of copyright in the categories of music, text and images, works of visual art and photography and dramatic works. After a basic introduction of copyright and related rights which participants should know in advance of the course (see DL-201 Copyright), it lays the ground for the three main elements of a well-functioning copyright system: legislation, policy and management of rights. The overriding principle is that whenever it is impracticable or impossible for IP rights holders to exercise their rights individually, collective management is a feasible solution. The course examines the synergies that exist among stakeholders in the legal, creativity, management, and policy arenas in order to balance the benefits to creators and society. It will also discuss the day-to-day work of CMO’s and how they are governed. Finally, the learners will be able to examine the challenges and opportunities brought about the digital technologies and the internet through pre-planned questions and answers as well as dynamic discussions among peers and experts.
