Answer: Jessica = Embezzlement

Jake = Forgery

Both = Conspiracy

Explanation:

• Jessica,s crime is embezzlement.

Embezzlement is when an individual misappropriates the fund that has been entrusted and placed in the person's care. In this case, Jessica steals the company's fund that is in her possession and this is a financial fraud.

• Jake's crime is forgery

Forgery is when a take signature, false document, or something else is being copied so as to deceive someone else. This is punishable as the person will be charged with fraud.

• The crime of both of them is conspiracy.

A conspiracy is simply when there is an agreement that takes place between two or more people when they want to commit a crime. In this scenario, both Jake and Jessica agreed to carry out the fraud.

To which of the following would Kant and Nozick agree?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Although Robert Nozick did not consider himself to be primarily a political philosopher, he is best known for his contributions to it. Undoubtedly, Nozick’s work in epistemology and metaphysics (especially with respect to free will and the “closest continuer” theory of personal identity) has had a significant impact on those fields. However, it was the publication of his first book, Anarchy, State and Utopia (1974) that revitalized the political right-wing and set off a firestorm of critical replies and commentaries. While Nozick’s accomplishments reach far beyond the confines of political philosophy, it is safe to say that most recognize him for his work on attempting to provide a justification for the state, setting the limits of government, and trying to convince us that accepting his minimal state could foster a framework for a constellation of communities constituting a sort of utopia.

Anarchy, State and Utopia can also be seen as a critical response to John Rawls’ Theory of Justice, which was published just three years earlier and was considered to be the most robust and sophisticated defense of liberal egalitarianism. Although many credit Rawls for single-handedly rekindling interest in political philosophy, this is likely overstated praise. There is little doubt that Nozick’s systematic criticism of Rawls’ theory of justice and establishment of a rival political theory in Anarchy, State and Utopia also played a major role in bring significant attention back to political philosophy.
