The gay panic defense and moral disengagement in mock jurors

Mills, Kelly 07 June 2016 (has links)
<p> The purpose of this study was to examine moral disengagement strategies, such as dehumanization, responsibility displacement, and victim blame, in mock juror decision making in a case involving the gay panic defense. Mock jurors with high levels of moral disengagement were expected to find the defendant guilty of the lesser charge of manslaughter more often than mock jurors with low levels of moral disengagement. Mock jurors read one of two vignettes that outlined a murder case in which the defendant claimed he was provoked either by an unwanted homosexual advanced from the victim, or an attempted robbery and assault by the victim. They were then asked choose between the charges of manslaughter and murder for the defendant. It was hypothesized that the defendant using the gay panic defense would receive more findings of manslaughter than the defendant in the robbery and assault vignette. This hypothesis was not supported, as the defendant in the robbery and assault vignette received more verdicts finding him guilty of manslaughter than the defendant in the gay panic vignette. However, 57% of mock jurors still supported the use of the gay panic defense. Moral disengagement did not have a significant effect on mock juror decision making in either vignette. Mock jurors with high levels of victim blame found the defendant guilty of manslaughter more often than those with low levels of victim blame. Limitations of this study and implications for society and the legal system are discussed, and future directions for research are offered.</p>

Asset Protection Through the Use of Premarital Agreements

Rose, Robert T. 01 January 2012 (has links)
The number of multi-million dollar divorce settlements has been increasing rapidly in the last decade. Although Donald Trump's divorce from his first wife, Ivana, wherein $25 million was awarded to the former spouse, may have seemed like a significant sum in 1992, this amount appears quite minuscule today.1 In December of 2011, Mel Gibson's soon to be ex-wife Robyn Moore received $425 million in the couples' divorce settlement.2 In March of 2012, Frank McCourt was forced to sell his professional franchise, the Los Angeles Dodgers, in bankruptcy during his divorce proceedings with Jamie McCourt.3 It seems as if every month we hear details of another celebrity divorce settlement involving hundreds of millions of dollars, begging the obvious question: do athletes and celebrities who stand to make fortunes during a contemplated marriage, need to be more aware of the consequences of divorce and how to better protect themselves in such a case, before repeating the words "I do"? 1 Joanne Kaufman, "The Art of the Divorce," People,http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,20105577,00.html (accessed April 19, 2012). 2 Ken Lee, "Mel Gibson's Ex Wife Takes Half His Estimated $850 Million in Divorce Settlement," People, http://www.people.com/people/article/0,20556666,00.html (accessed April 19, 2012). 3 Stephen Dunn, "Why the McCourt Marital Agreement Failed," Forbes,http://www.forbes.com/sites/stephendunn/2011/12/14/why-the-mccourt-marital-agreement-failed/ (accessed April 19, 2012).

Comparaison du droit comptable allemand et du droit comptable français : une approche systémique / Comparison of the German and French case : Systems thinking in accounting law

Benkel, Muriel 27 February 2013 (has links)
L’IASB est à la recherche de normes comptables à la fois acceptées et bien fondées théoriquement. Cette cohérence interne (« internal consistency ») des normes comptables recherchée par l’IASB vise à établir un ensemble de principes et de règles comptables qui soit dénué de contradictions logiques dans le sens des théories comptables normatives. La question de la cohérence et de la mesure de la cohérence d’un système comptable fait l’objet de nombreuses discussions dans la littérature internationale. La présente thèse a pour objet de présenter une étude approfondie du concept anglo-saxon de « consistency ». Grâce à une comparaison systématique de la comptabilité en Allemagne et en France la pensée systémique qui sous-tend un système comptable est identifiée comme facteur d’influence essentiel pour le développement d’une compréhension nationale de la comptabilité et du concept de « consistency ». Il sera notamment démontré que le droit comptable allemand et le droit comptable français ne sont pas des exemples types d’un modèle comptable européen et que la pensée systémique inhérente à un système comptables influence fondamentalement l’harmonisation de la comptabilité nationale avec les IFRS . / This paper augments the existing literature related to the concistency concept that critically discusses the meaning of « consistency », its theoretical restraints and its practicability. An interpretation of the consistency concept using systems theory leads to the conclusion that « consistency » is to be interpreted as a « social equilibrium » of a national accounting system. Therefore an historical grown interpretation of « consistency » cannot be used as an appraisal benchmark for foreign accounting systems. This concern corresponds with the usual criticism addressed to the normative concistency notion. Despite this criticism the paper argues that the consistency discourse can result in an essential contribution to the development of an accepted, theoretically well-founded international accounting system.
