Justifications for a Federal Death Penalty Law
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of the justifications which exist for imposing a federal death penalty. Emphasizes that such a penalty would not only permanently remove violent criminals from society but also serve as a deterrent to potential criminals. Dismisses the argument against such a penalty on the basis that it discriminates against lower socioeconomic classes who can not afford private defense with the observation that if our representation system is at fault then those inadequacies should be addressed, not be used as an excuse against the federal death penalty.

Pregnant Addict Women: Harm Reduction or Coercion?

Robert K. Merton's Anomie Theory And Gang Violence
[ send me this paper ]
15 pages in length. There exist a number of components critical to the overall understanding of the Robert K. Merton's anomie theory. That a clear connection can be made between crime and one's social/economic status speaks volumes about the nature of humanity. Indeed, evidenced by the author's rationale is the fact that advanced nations appear to endure a higher level of crime due to their vastly segregated social and economic status, leaving the door wide open for resentment and intolerance, which effectively translates into criminal activity. Merton, highly regarded as one of the most influential sociologist of the twentieth century, re-established Emile Durkheim's original anomie theory that stated humanity's goal-achieving methods severely conflicted with the ultimate goal. When taken in the context of the American Dream, one can better understand the antagonistic relationship that exists between socio-economic limitations and the intrinsic human desire to achieve; as such, one can also readily realize how this struggle applies to gang violence. Merton states this theory based upon five fundamental adaptations: conformity, innovations, ritualistic, retreatist or rebellion. Bibliography lists 15 sources.

Social Control Theory.
[ send me this paper ]

Surveillance: A Benefit To Society
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Based upon the escalating violence, drug use and poor-quality workmanship infiltrating the masses, it has become necessary for employers, school systems and the community at large to implement a means by which to thwart the negative by-products of such activity. Surveillance, even though significantly intrusive, plays an integral role in saving society from itself, given the fact that people are taking less and less responsibility for their own actions and how they may create a damaging influence upon unsuspecting others. The writer discusses how it has, indeed, become imperative that surveillance be utilized as a means by which to control the unwanted element of society, which in turn only serves to benefit all concerned.

Testosterone: The Differentiating Element In Male/Female Crimes
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. It goes without saying that there exists an inherent difference in the aggressive tendencies of males and females.
