14. Rights as Side Constraints and the Minimal State
Moral Foundations of Politics (PLSC 118)
Today, Professor Shapiro dives more deeply into Robert Nozick's theory of the minimal, or night watchman, state. This formulation is not redistributive, nor does it consider rights as goals, but rather as side-constraints on what we can do. In other words, Nozick's is a deontological, not teleological, approach. However, the Achilles' heel of this formulation is the incorporation of independents, based on a system of compensation. Some people will opt
Mass grave in Japan

The Green movement at the UCSD
The Green building movement is a relatively recent phenomeon and in the campus life. Focused on the where and how solar systems are used on UCSD constructions.
Visualizing Sustainability
As the natural resources are being extensively depleted, sustainability is an issue that needs to be addressed not only at the authoritative level, but also with the general public as well, as it is a collaborative effort. As a result, this research endeavors to determine effective elements to be incorporated into the design of buildings in hopes to further the efforts of sustainability. It aims to connect the aesthetics of the building seen by the visible eye to the ideology of sustainability,
Comparative Analysis of What Foods Enter the Home
My video describes my research. I focused on foods that enter the home in hopes of finding why parents purchase certain foods.
Breaking Socio-Cultural Barriers: Musical Traditions, Street Performance, and Coherent Urban Design
Urban design and community development are often divorced from one another as disciplines despite the profound influence the form of urban space has on the cohesiveness of a community. Using street musicians and the phenomenon of spontaneous breaking of social barriers as a context, this study argues for a holistic approach to design with community development in mind by demonstrating how social relationships between strangers spring up and how they are affected by the nature of urban form. The
New Energy, Old Waste
The value of extracting methane gas from the San Diego Mirarmar Landfill to produce energy.
Developing Efficient and Sustainable Transportation Systems in San Diego
As the world continues to develop and resources continually become scarce, alternatives to sustain the American way of life have become more important than ever. The American transportation system has become increasingly dependent on one mode of transportation, the personal automobile. Throughout the 20th century the American transit system of the postwar boom developed in favor of the automobile, especially in the sprawling cities of the west coast, like San Diego. The developed transportat
Virtual Educational Resource for the Biosciences (VERB) - Eutherians
VERB is an online animal diversity resource designed to accompany undergraduate degrees in the Biosciences. In this package, entitled VERB Eutherians, the groups discussed are the living placental mammals. Contained are a series of web pages outlining the diversity of the eutherians from an evolutionary perspective. The topics of focus are phylogeny (evolutionary history) and functional anatomy, but subjects as wide as genetics, ecology, physiology, and developmental biology are discussed where

Analyse and present research information
Develop a business brief, perform business research
and present research findings professionally, either in ValleyView or a real
workplace. This unit is incorporated into one major task with three
related sub-tasks. Since the overarching project goal at ValleyView Publishing is to
set up a new multimedia branch office, the task of determining a suitable location
for the new office is critical.

Analyse and present research information
This learning object covers the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to gather, organise, analyse and present information. Learners complete project tasks for a simulated business (ValleyView Publishing) or a real workplace. Since the overarching project goal at ValleyView Publishing is to set up a new branch office, the task of reporting on a suitable location is critical.
