PowerPoint developed and used by TA Michael Fix for a lecture on Civil Rights for PS 101 American Government at the University of Kentucky, Spring 2007.
This document provides notes compiled by Manzoor Mazari on criminology. It begins with an introduction where Mazari shares that he scored 76 in criminology in the CSS exam in 2019. The notes then cover:
1. Definitions and scope of criminology as the scientific study of crime, criminals, and their causes.
2. A past paper analysis identifying common criminology questions asked.
3. Detailed notes on key criminology topics like perspectives, agencies, juvenile justice, investigations etc.
4. Strategies for studying criminology effectively, including relating concepts to Pakistan and answering past paper questions.
The document discusses the history of civil rights and civil liberties in the United States from the Dred Scott decision through modern issues. It covers key court cases and legislation related to the abolition of slavery, citizenship, voting rights, segregation, discrimination, and expanded rights for groups including women, people with disabilities, immigrants, and the LGBT community. Major events and figures discussed include the Civil Rights Acts, Voting Rights Act, Brown v. Board of Education, Martin Luther King Jr., and the women's suffrage movement.
This document summarizes the development of criminology from the 18th century to today. It began as classical criminology focusing on religious explanations for crime. In the 19th century, modern criminology applied biological and behavioral sciences to study crime typologies and offender characteristics. Independent criminology emerged in the late 20th century as its own academic discipline, driven by increased government funding. Theories then incorporated social causes like imitation (Gabriel Tarde) and economic causes of lower socioeconomic status and crime. Finally, opportunity theories analyzed how environmental factors provide criminal opportunities rather than just motivation.
Forensic semen analysis plays a vital role in identification of suspected person in rape cases. this slide consist of all the recquiried info. about semen and its analysis in forensic laboratories.
Karl Landsteiner discovered the ABO blood group system in 1901. This was one of the most significant medical discoveries of the 20th century, as it explained why blood transfusions were sometimes fatal and allowed doctors to safely transfuse blood by matching blood types. Landsteiner recognized that not all human blood is the same, and found that blood is distinguishable by its group or type. Since then, over 100 blood factors have been identified, though the ABO system remains the most important for blood transfusions. In forensics, blood typing using antigens and antibodies was used to identify individuals until the 1990s, when DNA analysis replaced it as a more discriminating technique. Serology involves testing blood and other biological samples using the
The document discusses the roles and responsibilities of a medicolegal death investigator and medical examiner's office. It describes how a death investigator conducts scene investigations, documents evidence, and assists the forensic pathologist. Their goal is to thoroughly investigate the circumstances of a death and provide factual information to determine the cause and manner of death. The medical examiner's office aims to scientifically analyze evidence and facts to help determine the cause and manner of death.
This document discusses the process and objectives of a post-mortem or autopsy examination. It describes the external and internal examination of the body to determine the cause and manner of death. The external examination involves inspecting the body for injuries, marks, signs of death. The internal examination involves opening the cranial, thoracic and abdominal cavities and examining the organs and tissues for any abnormalities, injuries, or diseases. Samples may be taken for further analysis. The goal is to establish the identity of the deceased and determine if death was natural, accidental, suicidal or homicidal.
This document provides an introduction to political ideologies by outlining what is ideology and discussing some of the core themes of liberalism and conservatism. It defines ideology as a more or less coherent set of ideas that provides the basis for organized political action. Liberalism emphasizes individual freedom, reason, justice, and tolerance, viewing each person as equally deserving of rights. Conservatism stresses the importance of tradition, human imperfection, hierarchy and authority in society, and private property as foundations of social order. The document examines some of the key beliefs and values of these two dominant Western ideologies.

This chapter discusses property crimes and their evolution. It covers common law definitions of larceny, forgery, robbery and burglary. It also discusses modern statutes that have expanded these offenses. For example, most states grade theft offenses based on the value of stolen property. Additionally, computer crimes and identity theft are now included as property offenses.
This document discusses different forms of government. It describes the three main types of government as autocracy, oligarchy, and democracy, based on who rules and citizen participation. It then examines specific forms of autocracy like dictatorship, absolute monarchy, and constitutional monarchy. Oligarchy is defined as rule by a small dominant group. Democracy is defined as rule by the people, with direct and representative forms. The two main systems of democratic government are also outlined as parliamentary and presidential.
Sutherland's differential association theorycapesociology
Sutherland developed the theory of differential association to explain criminal behavior. The theory asserts that criminal behavior is learned through interaction with others who engage in criminal acts and define such acts favorably. Criminal behavior results from being exposed to more definitions favorable to crime than unfavorable definitions. Sutherland argued that individuals learn criminal techniques, motives, and attitudes by associating with others involved in criminal behavior more than they associate with non-criminal groups. His theory departed from biological and individual theories of crime by emphasizing the social context and social learning aspects of criminal behavior.
Forensic anthropology studies the human skeleton to determine characteristics like age, sex, stature, and ancestry from skeletal remains. Techniques were developed in the early 20th century to aid in the identification of unknown remains. Examination of bones can reveal injuries, medical conditions and cause of death. Differences in bone development, fusion, and structure between males and females and across age groups allow for the determination of these characteristics.
Vice crimes refer to offenses against public morality such as prostitution, gambling, and drug and alcohol offenses. The document provides an overview of various vice crimes including their historical development and current legal status. It summarizes laws around issues like obscenity, public intoxication, controlled substances, and drug courts as alternatives to incarceration for nonviolent drug offenders.
This document discusses the concept of federalism in U.S. Constitutional law across 22 pages. It begins by defining federalism as the division of power between national and state governments. It then outlines the goals of federalism, including showing how power is divided and how disputes are resolved. The document explores the sources of power for both the federal and state governments, including express powers, implied powers, and reserved powers. It also examines concurrent powers and how conflicts are resolved through the Supremacy Clause. The remainder of the document analyzes different types of preemption, including examples of cases where state laws have been found to be preempted by federal statutes.
This document provides information on various types of trace evidence used in forensic science, including seminal stains, hair, and blood stains. It discusses the collection and examination of these trace materials, as well as their medical legal importance. For example, seminal stains can be used to investigate crimes like rape, hair can indicate the age or gender of a person, and blood staining patterns provide clues in homicide cases. The document also covers inheritance patterns for blood groups, differences between human and animal hair/blood, and principles of blood group serology like ABO and Rh typing.
The document outlines the key principles and structure of the US Constitution. It begins with an overview of the Preamble and 3 branches of government established in the 7 original Articles. It then discusses the first 10 Amendments known as the Bill of Rights. The document examines the principles of popular sovereignty, separation of powers, checks and balances, limited government, and federalism that are fundamental to the Constitution's design.
Inquest and Law related to it muhammad farooq khanzulfi799
- There are two types of inquests in Pakistan: police inquests under Section 174 of the Code of Criminal Procedure and magisterial inquiries under Section 176.
- A police inquest is limited in scope and aims to ascertain the apparent cause of death, such as whether it was accidental, suicidal, or homicidal. Details of overt acts are not recorded.
- A magisterial inquiry allows a magistrate to hold an inquiry into the cause of death instead of or in addition to a police investigation. This includes cases of death in custody or in prisons.
- There is no fixed time limit for disinterment of a dead body under Pakistani law to determine the cause of death. Disinterment
This document discusses capital punishment and provides details on:
- Definitions and history of capital punishment from ancient times to modern era
- Religious views on capital punishment from Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism
- Methods of execution that have been used historically and in modern times
- Crimes and offenders that are punishable by death penalty in India
- Exclusions from the death penalty like juveniles, pregnant women, mentally ill
- Last executions carried out in India and clemency process in the Indian Constitution
This document provides an overview of polygraph tests, also known as lie detection tests. It discusses the history and development of polygraph testing from the 19th century to modern use. The key principles are that polygraph tests measure physiological responses like blood pressure, pulse, respiration, and skin conductivity when a subject is asked questions. The objectives are to determine the truthfulness of statements by suspects, witnesses, and complainants in criminal cases. However, polygraph results are not admissible in Indian courts due to legal privileges against self-incrimination. The document also outlines the equipment, examination process, analysis techniques, and limitations of polygraph testing.
Trace evidence analysis involves the characterization, identification, and comparison of microscopic materials recovered from crime scenes that can help solve criminal cases. Trace evidence includes hair, fibers, paint, glass, soil and other materials. Analysis of trace evidence can link people, places, and objects involved in a crime. Common techniques used in trace evidence analysis include physical examination, chemical tests, microscopic examination and spectroscopy. The goal is to include or exclude suspects and connect evidence to a crime scene.
The document discusses different types of evidence used in legal cases, including testimonial evidence from eyewitnesses and physical evidence found at crime scenes. It notes that eyewitness testimony can be unreliable due to factors like stress, biases, and memory errors over time. Physical evidence is considered more reliable and can include trace evidence like fibers, fingerprints, DNA, tool marks, firearms evidence, and more. The document emphasizes how physical evidence can be analyzed and compared to help determine its origin and link it to people or places associated with a crime.

Civil rights are guarantees of equal political and social rights to all citizens. They prohibit unequal treatment based on attributes such as race, gender, sexual orientation, and disability. Throughout American history, various groups have faced discrimination and fought for their civil rights through legal and social movements. While civil rights laws and amendments aimed to promote equality after the Civil War and in the 1960s, discrimination and disparities continue to be addressed today in issues like affirmative action, voting rights, and LGBTQ rights.
The document summarizes the history of civil rights struggles in the United States. It discusses how various groups like black Americans, women, older Americans, disabled individuals, and gays and lesbians fought for legal equality and protections from discrimination. It also outlines key civil rights legislation and Supreme Court cases related to issues like desegregation, voting rights, affirmative action, and same-sex marriage that are still debated today. Civil rights in the US have been an ongoing process of deliberation to expand opportunities and justice for all groups.
The document discusses the struggle for equal rights in the United States for various groups including African Americans, women, and other minorities. It outlines how after the Civil War, amendments were passed to abolish slavery and guarantee equal protection, but Jim Crow laws allowed discrimination to continue. The civil rights movement in the 1950s-60s fought for desegregation and passage of laws like the Civil Rights Act and Voting Rights Act to prohibit discrimination. However, complete equality has still not been achieved for all groups.
This document discusses the history of civil rights and discrimination in the United States from the era of slavery through modern times. It covers major milestones and Supreme Court cases related to racial discrimination, gender discrimination, and the rights of other groups. Key events discussed include the Civil War, Jim Crow laws, Brown v. Board of Education, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and cases related to voting rights, women's suffrage, disability rights, and affirmative action.
Civil liberties and civil rights protect individuals from government overreach and guarantee equal treatment. Civil liberties are embodied in the Bill of Rights and protect freedoms like speech, privacy, and due process. Civil rights laws aimed to achieve equality for African Americans by outlawing discrimination and unfair voting restrictions. However, court rulings like Plessy v. Ferguson allowed for "separate but equal" treatment, circumventing full civil rights. The civil rights movement of the 1950s-60s challenged these practices through protests and new legislation like the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
This document provides an overview of civil liberties and civil rights in the United States, including:
- Civil liberties are legal protections against government actions that threaten individual freedoms, as embodied in the Bill of Rights.
- Civil rights are legal protections concerning equality and citizens' participation in the democratic process.
- Key civil rights issues discussed include the rights of African Americans, women, and LGBT individuals. Major civil rights laws and court cases that shaped these rights are summarized.
- The differences between civil liberties, which protect individuals, and civil rights, which apply to groups, are outlined.
The Jim Crow laws were passed in Southern states after the Civil War amendments to oppress African Americans politically and economically. Plessy v. Ferguson allowed for "separate but equal" facilities to segregate the races. Emmett Till's murder for whistling at a white woman connected him to the civil rights movement. Brown v. Board of Education required desegregation of public schools. Thurgood Marshall and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. were important civil rights leaders - Marshall won Brown and later became a Supreme Court justice, while King advocated for nonviolent protest and gave influential speeches. The Montgomery bus boycott had African Americans walk, bike, or carpool instead of taking the segregated buses. The Freedom Riders traveled
Civil Rights laws aim to guarantee equal treatment and political participation for all citizens regardless of race. The Supreme Court struck down the "separate but equal" doctrine in Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, reversing the earlier Plessy v. Ferguson decision. Subsequent Civil Rights Acts in 1964 and 1965 banned discrimination in public accommodations, employment, and voting. The Nineteenth Amendment gave women the right to vote. Later court cases and laws extended civil rights protections to other groups such as prohibiting sexual harassment and advancing LGBTQ rights.

"What Is Freedom?": Reconstruction, 1865–1877
*
After the Civil War, freed slaves and white allies in the North and South attempted to redefine the meaning and boundaries of American freedom. Freedom, once for whites only, now incorporated black Americans. By rewriting laws, African-Americans, for the first time, would be recognized as citizens with equal rights and the right to vote, even in the South. Blacks created their own schools, churches, and other institutions. Though many of Reconstruction’s achievements were short-lived and defeated by violence and opposition, Reconstruction laid the basis for future freedom struggles.

Q: Chapter 15 includes a new comparative discussion on the aftermath of slavery in various Western Hemisphere societies. You see important commonalities in the struggle over land and labor in post-Emancipation societies. How do you situate the experiences of former slaves in the United States in this borrowed content.
A: Well, just as slavery was a hemispheric institution, so was emancipation. It’s useful for us in thinking about the aftermath of slavery in the United States, the Reconstruction era and after to see what happened to other slaves in places where slavery was abolished. What you see is a similar set of issues and conquests taking place everywhere slaves desire land of their own—this is the No. 1 thing, they want autonomy, they want independence from white control. All of these regions are agricultural, everywhere former slaves demand land. In some places they get land fairly effectively, like in Jamaica, West Indies, where there’s a lot of unoccupied land they can take. In some places they don’t, but that battle to who’s going to have access to land and economic resources is a commonality in the aftermath of slavery. So too is the effort of local plantation owners trying to get the plantation going again and to force slaves to work back on the plantations, or if not, to bring labor from somewhere else—in the West Indies they bring workers from China, from India, from southeast Asia to replace slaves who were moving off on land of their own. They can’t quite do that in the United States—they tried to bring ...
