Book Synopsis Crime, Passion & Conscience by : Edward Gibbon
Download or read book Crime, Passion & Conscience written by Edward Gibbon and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-10 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This writing is a wonderful effort to produce a book that: Reeks with authenticity Challenges the reader to predict outcomes. Both immediate and eventual. Intertwines a moral thread throughout with the final climax. Educates historically to the current reality. Brings to the reader a colorful caste of characters. Calls attention to the bias in the hierarchy of law enforcement agencies. Points to the ethnic predominance of cops and crooks. Infuses the reader with the impression that male chauvinism predominates law enforcement. Portrays "cops" motivation being emotional as well as moral. Asks the question, "does might make right?" "Boston Police Detective Sergeant Stuart Parnell McKeady was not fully aware of the moral debt he was incurring as he slipped progressively deeper into graft and corruption - but that debt would quickly come due." -William "Bill" Arbuckle Former California lawman and reviewer of books pertaining to crime cases. "The book The Great Brink's Holdup I co-authored with Sid Feder (Murder, Inc.) was factual. Crime, Passion & Conscience is factualized fiction. In my ten years on the force, I witnessed inefficiency and outright dishonesty from the top down. This fictional account shows how temptations can overwhelm conscience in a very difficult job. I am proud of the honest majority of police and of the Boston Police Medal of Honor bestowed on me." -Edward Anthony Gibbons
Book Synopsis Shocking the Conscience of Humanity by : Margaret M. deGuzman
Download or read book Shocking the Conscience of Humanity written by Margaret M. deGuzman and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-04-13 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most commonly cited justification for international criminal law is that it addresses crimes of such gravity that they "shock the conscience of humanity." From decisions about how to define crimes and when to exercise jurisdiction, to limitations on defences and sentencing determinations, gravity rhetoric permeates the discourse of international criminal law. Yet the concept of gravity has thus far remained highly undertheorized. This book uncovers the consequences for the regime's legitimacy of its heavy reliance on the poorly understood idea of gravity. Margaret M. deGuzman argues that gravity's ambiguity may at times enable a thin consensus to emerge around decisions, such as the creation of an institution or the definition of a crime, but that, increasingly, it undermines efforts to build a strong and resilient global justice community. The book suggests ways to reconceptualize gravity in line with global values and goals to better support the long-term legitimacy of international criminal law.
Book Synopsis Conscience and Conviction by : Kimberley Brownlee
Download or read book Conscience and Conviction written by Kimberley Brownlee and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2012-10-18 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book shows that civil disobedience is generally more defensible than private conscientious objection. Part I explores the morality of conviction and conscience. Each of these concepts informs a distinct argument for civil disobedience. The conviction argument begins with the communicative principle of conscientiousness (CPC). According to the CPC, having a conscientious moral conviction means not just acting consistently with our beliefs and judging ourselves and others by a common moral standard. It also means not seeking to evade the consequences of our beliefs and being willing to communicate them to others. The conviction argument shows that, as a constrained, communicative practice, civil disobedience has a better claim than private objection does to the protections that liberal societies give to conscientious dissent. This view reverses the standard liberal picture which sees private 'conscientious' objection as a modest act of personal belief and civil disobedience as a strategic, undemocratic act whose costs are only sometimes worth bearing. The conscience argument is narrower and shows that genuinely morally responsive civil disobedience honours the best of our moral responsibilities and is protected by a duty-based moral right of conscience. Part II translates the conviction argument and conscience argument into two legal defences. The first is a demands-of-conviction defence. The second is a necessity defence. Both of these defences apply more readily to civil disobedience than to private disobedience. Part II also examines lawful punishment, showing that, even when punishment is justifiable, civil disobedients have a moral right not to be punished. Oxford Legal Philosophy publishes the best new work in philosophically-oriented legal theory. It commissions and solicits monographs in all branches of the subject, including works on philosophical issues in all areas of public and private law, and in the national, transnational, and international realms; studies of the nature of law, legal institutions, and legal reasoning; treatments of problems in political morality as they bear on law; and explorations in the nature and development of legal philosophy itself. The series represents diverse traditions of thought but always with an emphasis on rigour and originality. It sets the standard in contemporary jurisprudence.

Book Synopsis Without Conscience by : Robert D. Hare
Download or read book Without Conscience written by Robert D. Hare and published by Guilford Press. This book was released on 2011-09-20 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people are both repelled and intrigued by the images of cold-blooded, conscienceless murderers that increasingly populate our movies, television programs, and newspaper headlines. With their flagrant criminal violation of society's rules, serial killers like Ted Bundy and John Wayne Gacy are among the most dramatic examples of the psychopath. Individuals with this personality disorder are fully aware of the consequences of their actions and know the difference between right and wrong, yet they are terrifyingly self-centered, remorseless, and unable to care about the feelings of others. Perhaps most frightening, they often seem completely normal to unsuspecting targets--and they do not always ply their trade by killing. Presenting a compelling portrait of these dangerous men and women based on 25 years of distinguished scientific research, Dr. Robert D. Hare vividly describes a world of con artists, hustlers, rapists, and other predators who charm, lie, and manipulate their way through life. Are psychopaths mad, or simply bad? How can they be recognized? And how can we protect ourselves? This book provides solid information and surprising insights for anyone seeking to understand this devastating condition.

Book Synopsis The Supraconscience of Humanity by : Edward H. Strauch
Download or read book The Supraconscience of Humanity written by Edward H. Strauch and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2010-05-25 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humankind evolved through three psychological stages - subconscience, conscience, and supraconscience. Ritual and myth, cosmology and theism marked phases of psychic integration, initiating our supraconscience evolution. Four archetypes: temperance, 'the great chain of being,' Biblical interpretation, and Divinity became the Cosmic consciousness of secular man. Study of Scripture developed a communal supraconscience. Mystics' dedication showed us the deeper meaning of a life purpose. Yet, heretics taught man faith in the superior power of the free mind. Heresy helped evolve humanity's secular supraconscience. Indeed, the exponential growth of psyche's powers and the continuous revelation of new, secular knowledge seems the fulfillment of Revelation. Finally, the enlightened understood that when God created the earth, he included evolution so that our kind would evolve a superior nature. Hence, religious and scientific, secular and humanistic developments reveal themselves to be the primary powers accelerating human evolution. Together, they have nurtured humankind's ever-evolving supraconscience.
