Evolution Of The Insanity Plea
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Are all delinquents created equal? Indeed, there are myriad levels of criminal activity that prove to land offenders in jail, with a percentage of those criminals committing their crimes under the duress of mental illness. These prisoners, while deserving of severe punishment, often do not have full control of their faculties. These orphans of society are often compelled by an emotional or mental imbalance that provokes them to act savagely toward their fellow human beings. One might assert the fact that what these disturbed individuals need is assisted treatment, not prison. Analyzing the evolution of the insanity plea leads one to believe that while the original objective was to address those with mental instability, it has grown out of this definition to support those whose situation does not necessarily apply.

Hobbes +Social Contract +Locke.
[ send me this paper ]
(7pp) The fundamental basis for government and law in this system is the concept of the social contract, according to which human beings begin as individuals in a state of nature, and create a society by establishing a contract whereby they agree to live together in harmony for their mutual benefit, after which they are said to live in a state of society. This contract involves the retaining of certain natural rights, an acceptance of restrictions of certain liberties, the assumption of certain duties, and the pooling of certain powers to be exercised collectively. So the use of a social contract is a give and take negotiation -usually. Bibliography lists 4 sources. BBsoccon.doc

Jewish And American Law: Comparison
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. American attitudes toward law were crucially shaped by the American Revolution, Constitutionalism and the transplantation of the English Common Law System to its shores. Jewish law also responded over a much longer time span and in many more places to historical influences. In the process, both systems had to face comparable issues, including 1) reasons to obey the law; 2) law and change; and 3) law and morality. While given the same objectives, they often ended up on opposite ends of the legal spectrum. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Judicial Review
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper that begins by defining the term 'judicial review.' The writer then discusses the governments of ancient Greece and Rome and how parts of their systems carried over to later times. The Age of Enlightenment is discussed relative to the political innovations brought about through the writings of Locke, e.g., the social contract theory, and Montesquieu, who proposed three branches of government. The founding fathers of the U.S. were highly influenced by these writers and that influence can be found in the Constitution and the division of the government into three branches. The writer reports the Marbury v Madison case where judicial review was used by Chief Justice Marsahll to declare an act of Congress unconstitutional. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
