Politicians of the era viewed communism in Cuba as an immediate threat that had to be snuffed out before it could infect the entire hemisphere. Their hope was that by isolating the island, Cuba’s citizens would be compelled to fight for reform and institute their own democracy. That approach, however, has backfired entirely. Neither government is innocent — Cuba’s human rights record remains as poor as ever and the U.S. has almost singlehandedly destroyed the country’s economy and health system. Though guilt is shared, the U.S. alone controls the relationship’s future. Reforms are in their infancy, but in light of the turbulent past, there has been progress.  Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/55 10.5195/ppr.2015.55 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available University Library System, University of Pittsburgh Relation A related resource https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/55/51 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2017 Matthew Moret https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/us/ Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Pitt Political Review; Vol 11, No 2 (2015); 10-19 2160-5807 Title A name given to the resource Isle of Misfit Ploys: The Cuban Embargo Type The nature or genre of the resource info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Both Republicans and Democrats are guilty of pushing scientific recommendations to the wayside when it suits their political needs. But, to fulfill their obligation to protect the American people and further American progress, politicians must stop interpreting hard scientific facts as it suits their political needs. They must begin to thoughtfully translate scientific data into legislation and policies so that pertinent topics can be addressed and the true needs of the American people can be met. The honest evaluation of this data is a formidable and seemingly unrealistic goal but, if nothing else, a moral standard must be enforced for publicly elected officials to serve in the best interest of the American people.  Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/60 10.5195/ppr.2015.60 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available University Library System, University of Pittsburgh Relation A related resource https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/60/56 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2017 Alyssa Lieberman https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/us/ Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Pitt Political Review; Vol 11, No 2 (2015); 45-50 2160-5807 Title A name given to the resource Unscientific Methods: Reinvigorating Objectivity in Politics Type The nature or genre of the resource info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Instead, it has had many unintended consequences, one of which is a huge increase in the federal prison population over the past 40 years. Despite making up only five percent of the world population, the U.S. is home to 25 percent of its prisoners. Since the 1970s, the prison population in the U.S. has skyrocketed due to the implementation of War on Drugs policies. The main reason for the failure of the War on Drugs can be attributed in part to mandatory minimum sentencing laws. Implemented as a part of the Anti- Drug Abuse Act of 1986, these one-size-fits-all policies require a certain punishment based on the amount and type of drug in possession without allowing for flexibility based on context.  Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/44 10.5195/ppr.2014.44 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available University Library System, University of Pittsburgh Relation A related resource https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/44/40 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2017 Megan Tingley https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/us/ Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Pitt Political Review; Vol 11, No 1 (2014); 28-32 2160-5807 Title A name given to the resource Land of the Free: Prison Reform Following the War on Drugs Type The nature or genre of the resource info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Increasingly prevalent is the notion that America is in the grips of what some despairing analysts (and gleeful news anchors) have labeled a “Culture War”- the ultimate expression of our increasingly polarized political life, in which the two competing viewpoints stay in their own yards, only seeking out media sources that validate their existing ideals, and lobbing attacks across the fence at the enemy camp.

The role of women in the workplace has been a point of dispute since the beginning of this era of professionalism. Support for bringing women into the technology industry has greatly overshadowed the efforts of recruiting men to fields historically dominated by women, despite the fact that this imbalance negatively impacts equality in the workplace. Women would introduce a new dynamic to the technology world and fields like teaching and nursing would be enhanced by an increase in the number of men in those fields.  Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/49 10.5195/ppr.2014.49 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available University Library System, University of Pittsburgh Relation A related resource https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/49/45 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2017 Samantha Small https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/us/ Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Pitt Political Review; Vol 11, No 1 (2014); 57-61 2160-5807 Title A name given to the resource The Other Gender Gap Type The nature or genre of the resource info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The money of oil companies and other corporations persuade our government to continue investing in fossil fuels as opposed to renewable energy. There are, however, other reasons which should convince us as a nation to invest in alternative energy sources. Eliminating our dependence on fossil fuels will benefit the nation economically and prepare us for a rapidly changing future. We, as Americans, should increasingly pursue renewable sources of alternative energy not only for the documented environmental reasons but also because investing in renewable energy technologies will provide jobs for Americans, decrease our dependence on other nations, and benefit the health of all Americans while decreasing our dependence on fossil fuels.

This reflects, quite simply, a feeling throughout the Western world that intrinsic rights are under attack.  Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource application/pdf Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/54 10.5195/ppr.2015.54 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available University Library System, University of Pittsburgh Relation A related resource https://ppr.pitt.edu/ojs/index.php/ppr/article/view/54/50 Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Copyright (c) 2017 Henry Glitz https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/us/ Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Pitt Political Review; Vol 11, No 2 (2015); 1-9 2160-5807 Title A name given to the resource Charlie Hebdo and the Future of Free Speech Type The nature or genre of the resource info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The voters of Pennsylvania will be at the height of importance in the history of American presidential elections, playing a key role as one of the leading battleground states in this upcoming election. With twenty electoral votes, tied for the fifth most of any state in the country, both campaigns will look to focus a great amount of time and money on trying to win this crucial state. And at the center of this fierce battle between the current GOP presumptive nominee and the President of the United States are four counties that comprise the suburbs of Philadelphia. These counties will ultimately decide the fate of Pennsylvania’s electoral votes, and possibly even the election itself.
