Crime Seriousness And Prior Criminal Records Are Not Legally Relevant Variables
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Inasmuch as crime seriousness and prior record are "the most influential factors in determining sentence outcomes" (Blumstein et al, 1983), arguing to the opposite finds one on a precarious perch where legal interpretation is concerned. However, this does not preclude the inherent value of such a stance, being that these two variables quite significantly alter the manner by which a given case is determined. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page discussion of the complexity of factors which influence crime rates around the world. This paper emphasizes the contrast between the U.S. and Japan and contends that while the degree of sentencing which might be rendered is only one of the factors which has an impact on criminal activity. Even then, however, this impact is not all-inclusive. A more important determinant of criminal activity is societal expectation in terms of what is appropriate and what is inappropriate behavior.
