2. What are the legal and historical bases for a justice system and its administration in the United States?
The legal and historical bases for a justice system and its administration in the United States come from two different theories which are the consensus theory and the conflict theory.
In the consensus theory, John Locke wrote, that “…In the state of nature, people were created by god to be free, equal, independent, and with inherent inalienable rights to life, liberty and property” (Peak 2012, P. 11). This idea of consensus theory would allow the people to use force to protect their life, liberty and property against any and all “evildoers” and constantly being on guard to protect what is theirs. “To avoid this brutish existence, …show more content…
Which method-a rational process or just muddling through-appears to be used in criminal justice policymaking today? Which method is probably best, given real-world realities? Explain.
In a rational process, every aspect of the case is looked at slowly and methodically in order to find out the truth of what happened in a situation. Taking into account the every piece of evidence in order to come to an exact and thought out answer. The muddling through approach, however, is considered to be just going through the motions of what happened in a situation. Adapting evidence to fit in to a crime. “The saying same stuff different day” explains this approach.
The approach that is used today would be a muddling through. This because the lawmakers go through the same schedule every day. One might believe that they are willing to overlook or forget about an idea or policy due to bribes or the chance to “catch a ride on someone else’s elevator that going up faster than their own is.” Using the ability to better ones career by tagging along with someone else. We see this a lot in congress, when a new congress member tries to attach themselves to a senior, more experienced person to help further their career. The new congressmen will support anything their new partner wants them to …show more content…
This time the best parts of the scientific approach and the human relations management approach were combined by taking the best parts from both. This now style of management would keep the task and the people in mind as it would go forward. The system approach recognized that it was still necessary to have some hierarchical arrangement to bring about coordination that authority and responsibility were essential, and that overall organization was required” (Peak 2012, P. 24). Team cooperation is a must if the goals of the organization are to be
