Civics and ethical education cv et 201
The document discusses civics and ethics education at Addis Ababa University. It defines civics as dealing with citizens' rights and responsibilities as members of a political community or state. Citizens have both rights, like access to services, and duties, such as paying taxes and respecting laws. Civics education aims to create active, competent citizens by teaching them about democratic values, history, political systems, and philosophy. Citizenship is defined as the legal recognition of an individual's integration into the political system, entailing both rights and obligations. Citizenship can be acquired by birth in a territory or country or through naturalization by fulfilling certain residency and character requirements.
Politics, Government & Laws
The document discusses politics, government, and laws. It defines politics as the distribution of power and resources within a community. It also discusses how politics is practiced at different levels of society from tribes to nation-states. The document then describes the Philippine government system as a presidential representative democracy with executive, legislative, and judicial branches. It provides examples of different types of governments including monarchy, aristocracy, oligarchy, and democracy. The document also defines international law and its components of public international law, conflict of laws, and laws of supranational organizations. In closing, it notes designations used for Philippine laws.
Law as an instrument of social change
The document discusses how law can be used as an instrument of social change. It notes that as societies change over time, new situations will arise that require the legal system to adapt accordingly to allow for peaceful change through legislation and judicial development. Specifically, the document outlines how certain harmful customs in India like sati, child marriage, and female infanticide were legally abolished through acts like the Sati Regulation Act and Child Marriage Restraint Act. However, it also notes that while social legislation can be based on social norms, laws alone cannot initiate change in social norms or values - people must internalize new legal norms for legislation to effectively create social change.

How do municipal governments in the USA minimize corruption, increase the level of confidence, promote transparency and increase public access to government? How transparency of local government has been achieved historically? Chapter 1 -_criminal_justice
The document discusses the evolution of the US Criminal Justice System from the mid-1940s to present day. Key events that shaped the system include the civil rights movement, Vietnam War protests, rising crime rates, and 9/11 terrorist attacks. These events eroded public confidence in law enforcement and led to reforms aimed at restoring order while balancing civil liberties and safety. Federal programs in the 1960s and 70s provided funds to improve policing and courts but also imposed standards around issues like racism and use of force. While reforms helped reduce crime, new threats like terrorism continue to test the balance of safety and individual freedom.

Role of Law in Dealing with the Cyber Crime and Social Change
The document discusses social change and cyber crime in relation to the role of law. It provides context on social change in Indonesia and defines it as changes in social institutions that affect values, attitudes and behaviors. Cyber crime is discussed as a new type of crime that has emerged with social changes in the digital era.

This document provides an introduction to political science, defining it as the systematic study of states and governments. It outlines the objectives of understanding the basic concepts of political science and developing critical thinking skills. It discusses key concepts like what constitutes a state, differences between terms like nation and state, citizenship and nationality.

Civic education
This document discusses the goals of citizenship training which are to enable students to make their own decisions, take responsibility for their lives and communities, and be responsible citizens of the United States. It defines citizenship as how people live together locally, nationally, and globally. Democracies need active, informed, and responsible citizens. The values of democracy, justice, equality, and inclusion are important but must be upheld. Being a good citizen means helping make community decisions and participating in local government and community activities.
What Is A Republic
John Adams outlines some key points about different forms of government in a 3 paragraph summary:
1) Some forms of government are better suited to being well administered than others, and the form that brings happiness to the most people is best. Fear should not be the foundation of government.
2) In a large republic, it is impossible for all citizens to make laws, so power must be assigned from many to a few wise representatives. Elections must be fair to prevent corruption.
3) Separating government powers prevents any one branch from becoming too powerful. Elected offices should have term limits, and judges should have life terms subject to removal for misbehavior.

Wjp rule of law index 2010 2 0
The WJP Rule of Law Index is a new quantitative assessment tool designed to provide a comprehensive picture of the extent to which countries adhere to the rule of law in practice. It examines practical situations that may affect ordinary people's daily lives, such as access to public services without bribery. The Index provides data on 10 dimensions of the rule of law, including limited government powers, absence of corruption, and access to justice. These dimensions are further broken down into 49 sub-factors. The Index rankings and scores are based on data from a global public opinion poll and expert questionnaires in 35 countries so far. The Index aims to measure rule of law in practice rather than just in theory.

The document discusses juvenile delinquency and legal aspects related to juveniles who break the law. It defines juvenile delinquency as illegal or criminal behavior by children between 10-18 years old. Criminologists view delinquency as violations of legal and social norms, from minor offenses to serious crimes. Statistics show juvenile group crime is most prevalent among 14-year-olds. Subcultures and peer groups can influence delinquent behavior. The Juvenile Justice Act of 2000 aims to provide care, protection and rehabilitation of juveniles in conflict with the law or in need of care. The proposed amendments allow those 16 years or older to be tried as adults for heinous crimes like rape and murder. It also
Goverment vs governance
Governance refers to the exercise of political, economic, and administrative authority and decision-making over political affairs. It involves determining who has power, how decisions are made, and how accountability is determined. Governance includes political, economic, administrative, and ecological domains. Good governance requires transparency, legitimacy, and efficiency in resource use. Government is the institution through which a state maintains its existence and carries out functions like providing social services and reconciling interests through policymaking. It aims to attain domestic order, common defense, liberty, general welfare, and public morality.

All of that is based on what I've learned in my past school year. And credits to the owner of the background picture. It's not easy to make that. And I want to comment your suggestion.
Bsl i chapter i state
The document discusses the definitions and key differences between state, government, association, and society. It defines a state as a group of people living in a defined territory under an organized government and international recognition. A government is the instrument that operates the state. An association is a group of people organized for a common purpose. Finally, a society is a large group of people in interpersonal relationships within a shared territory typically under the same political authority. The key difference between a state and society is that a state has sovereignty and the right to use legitimate power, while a society can exist without a state and lacks such authority.
Political science part viii
Local government is subordinate to the national government and derives its authority from it. There are three main theories on local governments: historical theory views decentralization as a natural right; legal theory sees centralization as superior; competence theory bases existence on performance. Local governments worldwide provide administrative services and represent communities, though powers differ between unitary and federal states. Decentralization can take three forms - devolution transfers power, deconcentration delegates functions, and decentralization disperses authority. Reasons for decentralization include maximizing participation and self-reliance.
Democracy and human rights
Democracy and human rights are interdependent. True democracy requires the protection of individual dignity through human rights. Constitutional democracies protect both democratic principles and individual rights through separation of powers, an independent judiciary, and the protection of civil liberties and minority rights in the constitution. However, an excess of constitutional rights can weaken democracy by limiting the room for public debate and policymaking. Illiberal and populist democracies undermine separation of powers and civil liberties in the name of majority rule. E-democracy uses digital technologies to enhance citizen participation in political processes at various levels of government.
Gov ch01me
Government is made up of three main components: people in elected positions of power and authority, the legislative, executive, and judicial powers granted to government, and the policies and decisions made by government. A key function of government is to maintain order, ensure national security, resolve conflicts, provide services to citizens, and work for the public good. Most modern governments are organized as either unitary systems with centralized power or federal systems that divide power between national and regional levels.
Idea mapping of group 3
This document discusses politics and the political process. It defines politics as the science of government and political methods or procedures for administering political affairs. A key aspect of politics discussed is that nations have citizens who have the power to choose leaders through elections to serve the public. The roles of senators, congressmen, and the president are also outlined, with senators and congressmen making laws and the president serving as the chief executive. Corruption within politics is addressed as misusing power and wealth for improper gains, which can then lead to increased poverty among citizens.

This document discusses indigenous rights and alternative conflict resolution in Latin America. It makes three key points:
1) Since independence, Latin American states integrated Western legal concepts into their constitutions but ignored indigenous law, which had inferior legal status until recently. Indigenous law is based on communities' own philosophical and social practices.
2) Fundamental principles of indigenous law include comprehensiveness, public processes, oral traditions, celerity, and adapting to new situations. Alternative dispute resolution shares some characteristics but is used in more limited contexts.
3) Countries in the region still lack true legal pluralism, but constitutional recognition of indigenous rights is progress toward mutual respect and a well-functioning pluralist legal system. Def
Law Jurisprudence - Legal Pluralism
This document discusses the concept of legal pluralism. Legal pluralism refers to the existence of multiple legal systems within one state. It challenges the idea of legal centralism that all law must be state law. The document outlines the emergence and characteristics of legal pluralism. It provides examples of legal pluralism in countries like Malaysia, Australia, and South Africa. The document also discusses some problems with legal pluralism, such as conflicts between different legal systems, and the interactions between legal pluralism and concepts like globalization and human rights.

This document provides an executive summary of an alternate report submitted to the Committee for the Elimination of all Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD) regarding Colombia's fulfillment of its commitments under the International Convention for the Elimination of all Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD). It summarizes that Colombia's indigenous and Afro-descendent populations face racial discrimination and marginalization, and that Colombia has more work to do to properly enforce existing anti-discrimination laws and adopt new policies to eliminate racial discrimination as required under the ICERD.Human rights disclosure
Human rights belong to all people regardless of attributes. States must respect human rights through laws and actions. For example, laws protect the right to life from harm by others. Human rights were first recognized internationally in 1948 and in Europe in 1950. The UK incorporated the European Convention on Human Rights into domestic law in 2000. India's constitution ensures fundamental rights for all citizens but human rights groups report ongoing issues like harassment of critics and lack of minority protection. Historically, women faced widespread discrimination but industrialization and rights movements increased women's social and economic power, though gender inequality persists globally.

1. Rawls argued that basic civil liberties should be constitutionalized but that social and economic policies should be determined through ordinary lawmaking. However, constitutions have increasingly embraced positive obligations and social rights.
2. Where the nature of social justice is reasonably contested, constitutions cannot fully address issues but can help secure basic welfare and hold governments accountable, especially regarding vulnerable groups.
3. Courts can review government policies for reasonableness in fulfilling social rights but should play a secondary role given democratic legitimacy concerns over contested views of justice.
Techmical skills assessment review
This document discusses four major events that helped shape the US criminal justice system: 1) The Civil Rights Movement, 2) The Vietnam War, 3) Rising crime rates in the 1960s and 1970s, and 4) The 9/11 terrorist attacks. It provides historical context around these events, such as the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and protests against the Vietnam War, and how the government responded through initiatives like President Johnson's War on Crime and the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968. The document also covers legal principles that govern criminal laws and procedures, such as due process, rules of evidence, and limits on criminal laws.
Comparative Law
Comparative law involves the study of differences and similarities between legal systems of different countries. It examines major types of legal systems including common law, civil law, and socialist law. A key aspect of comparative law is understanding how legal systems shape politics, economics, and society while also protecting basic human rights that all people share. Studying comparative law is important for understanding how legal institutions evolve over time and for navigating an increasingly globalized and interconnected world.
Chapter 1 power point
This document provides an overview of perspectives on the function and purpose of law. It discusses law as a cultural element that reflects a society's beliefs, values, and norms. It examines the views of philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, Hobbes, and Locke on the relationship between individuals, the state, and law. Sociological perspectives from Weber and Durkheim are presented, as are consensus and conflict-based views of a society's use of law to maintain order or preserve the interests of certain groups. The document aims to introduce key theories on what law is, what role it plays in culture and society, and how it both reflects and shapes human behavior and interactions.
Walsh power point_chapter 1
1) Law serves to regulate human behavior and transform self-interest into social interest by establishing general rules that bind a community.
2) Scholars have proposed different perspectives on law and its role in society, ranging from it maintaining order and consensus to it perpetuating conflicts between groups.
3) Key thinkers like Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, Hobbes, and Locke contributed different philosophical views of law and its relationship to concepts like justice, the state, and social contracts.
Introduction to law
This document provides an overview of conceptual analyses of law from different perspectives. It discusses law in terms of social order, elements of the state, and justice. It also examines definitions of law from various philosophical and sociological viewpoints. The document outlines how law has evolved from being intertwined with morality to becoming more consciously separated through legal positivism. However, morality still influences lawmaking and the interpretation of legal principles.
Modern Citizenship.pptx
1) Modern notions of citizenship seek to establish free and equal citizens by disregarding ascribed inequalities like gender, caste, race, etc. Citizens are conceived as bearing rights and exercising them equally.
2) T.H. Marshall suggested citizenship evolved from civil rights to political rights like voting, and later to social rights through welfare states.
3) Max Weber argued that citizenship in modern states is institutionally thin, defined against class affiliations, and citizens are seen purely as members of a state rather than in terms of profession or family.

Community justice ppt
- 1. Community Justice in Bolivia Nejla E. Calvo Metcalf Fellow 2010 Middlebury College ‘12 June-August 2010
- 23. News Headlines La justicia comunitaria no es asesina Desde mediados de los a ños 90 se discute en Bolivia la inclusi ón de la justicia comunitaria. En EE.UU. ya hay universidades tribales y programas donde se forman abogados versados en justicia tribal. La actual Constituci ón l a contempla y el proyecto de nueva CPE la menciona espec íf icamente. En los estatutos auton ómi cos no est á mencionada COMMUNITY JUSTICE IS NOT MURDER AYO AYO: It was one of the most cruel cases of lynching. Instead of restoring the balance, problems arose in the community after the assasination of Mayor Altamiro.
- 24. Felix Patsi is a government official who was charged with drunk driving and had to make 1,000 adobe tiles as punishment under community justice.
- 31. Main Assembly Meeting This was the general assembly meeting for the indigenous authorities and community members of the Carangas region. This larger meeting was held first in the morning, in order to discuss the events that were to take place in the following days. The large assembly then split into subcomittees and held longer meetings about specific topics. The smaller group meeting that I attended focused on the topics of “Original Justice and Community Justice” (featured in the next slide).
- 32. Meeting on Justicia Comunitaria Oruro Lawyer Dra. Marta Echeverr ía : “I have lived in the West and have been a judge for many years. There is a lot of contraband going on [in the rural communities of Bolivia]. I don’t mean to point fingers but if you have been protecting the activities of contraband, then your community could be at risk. Justice is at risk. If there is an authority figure that is involved with contraband, then another authority figure should step in and correct his mistakes… Authorities must be impartial to cases and should not be involved as accomplices or as ‘cover ups’ to a case.” Click on <-- picture to play video
- 33. Document Excerpts Original Justice Comission 1. “The law of jurisdictional demarcation should serve a double function: (1) to establish the territorial, personal, and material legal boundaries of the peasant communities and (2) to establish and develop mechanisms of coordination and cooperation in the justice system.” “ We call attention to the following fundamental values and principles of our native nation which serve as the driving force of our justice system: Good living: in order to achieve harmonious living with nature based on the 4 principles of the ‘Chakana’… that express our Aymara Cosmovision.” After 4 hours of discussion, the authorities composed a document explaining their understanding and definitions of justicia comunitaria.
