Unreferenced date December 2009 In sociology , legal behavior refers to variations in the methods and degree of governmental social control of behavior . Background In 1976, theoretical sociologist Donald Black sociologist Donald Black introduced a general sociological theory of law in his book The Behavior of Law. The theory exemplified Black s sociological paradigm known as pure sociology . A central aspect of this paradigm was the reconceptualization of human behavior as the behavior of social life. Thus, the behavior of many individuals may be understood and more readily explained as a single phenomenon. One form of social life is law, defined by Black as governmental social control. Social control is any process of defining and responding to deviant behavior deviance . Any increase of governmental social control be it a call to the police, an arrest, a prosecution, or a conviction is thus an increase of law. The word behavior is used here as it is used in the physical sciences to refer to variation. In this sense, everything behaves, including particles, storm systems, and law. Black s theory predicts and explains variations in legal behavior, such as why one assault results in a call to the police while another does not, or why one homicide conviction results in capital punishment while another does not.

Aether theories in physics propose the existence of a medium, the Aether classical element aether also spelled ether , from the Greek word Polytonic , meaning upper air or pure, fresh air ref name aetherDict , a space filling substance or field, thought to be necessary as a transmission medium for the propagation of electromagnetic waves. The assorted aether theories embody the various conceptions of this Medium optics medium and Substance theory substance . This early modern aether has little in common with the Aether classical element aether of classical elements from which the name was borrowed. Theories Although hypotheses of the aether vary somewhat in detail they all have certain characteristics in common. Theories were first proposed in the 19th century which considered aether to be a physical medium occupying every point in space, thus permeating also all material bodies. A second essential feature is that the properties of the aether give rise to electric and magnetic phenomena and determine the propagation velocity of their effects. Thus the speed of light and all other propagating effects are determined by the physical properties of the aether at the relevant location. This is analogous to the way that gaseous, liquid and solid media affect the propagation of sound waves. The aether is considered the overall reference frame for the universe and thus velocities are all absolute relative to its rest frame. Therefore, in this view, any physical consequences of those ..., and had failed to do so.

Various theories of victimology exist, each with the aim of explaining why certain people become victims of crimes, and why others do not. Some people view some theories in a negative light, believing that to conjecture as to the causes of victimisation is tantamount to victim blaming blaming the victim for crime, at least partly. ref name web Cite web title Victimology Theory accessdate 2010 09 03 url http faculty.ncwc.edu mstevens 300 300lecturenote01.htm ref Abuse in general The lifestyle exposure theory is a model of victimology that posits that the likelihood an individual will suffer a personal victimization depends heavily upon the concept of life style. The lifestyle theory is constructed upon several premises. The most important of the premises are The uneven distribution of criminal victimization across space and time. This translates to the occurrence of high risk places and high risk times. Offenders do not constitute a representative sample of the general population. This translates to the occurrence of high risk persons. Lifestyle determines the likelihood of personal victimization through the intervening variables of exposure and associatoin. People are not equally exposed to high risk places and times, and they vary in the degree to which they associate with high risk persons. This translates to a persons lifestyle influencing the exposure and association with high risk persons. ref name web Abuse towards women The interpersonal model describes violence against women as a consequence of individual psychology and abnormal interpersonal relations. ref name rosenberg124 Rosenberg 1991 , pg. 124 ref The family violence model explains the phenomenon more in terms of socioeconomic and educational factors. ref name rosenberg124 Finally, the gender politics model is an attempt to schematise abuse of women as attempts by males in general to maintain their position of power over females. ref name rosenberg124 See also Abuse Victimology References references Bibliography ... more details
orphan date May 2008 Theories on the causes of poverty are the foundation upon which poverty reduction strategies are based. While in developed nations poverty is often seen as either a personal or a structural defect, in developing nations the issue of poverty is more profound due to the lack of governmental funds. Some theories on poverty in the developing world focus on cultural characteristics as a retardant of further development. Other theories focus on social and political aspects that perpetuate poverty perceptions of the poor has a significant impact on the design and execution of programs to alleviate poverty. Causes of poverty in the United States Poverty as a personal failing When it comes to poverty in the United States , there are two main lines of thought. The most common line of thought within the U.S. is that a person is poor because of personal traits. ref name rank full harvnb Rank Yoon Herschl 2003 pp full 3 29 . ref These traits in turn have caused the person to fail. Supposed traits range from personality characteristics, such as laziness, to educational levels. Despite this range, it is always viewed as the individual s personal failure not to climb out of poverty. This thought pattern stems from the idea of meritocracy and its entrenchment within U.S. thought. Meritocracy, according to Katherine S. Newman is the view that those who are worthy are rewarded and those who fail to reap rewards must also lack self worth. ref harvnb Newman 1999 p 16 . ref This does not mean that all followers of meritocracy believe that a person in poverty deserves their low standard of living.
