  • Professor Gwen Adshead explores violence, offenders and the criminal personality through the perspective of psychology and psychiatry www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and...
    A discussion of how the study of psychology and psychiatry relates to the study of criminology. Historically criminals have been defined as a group who are seen as "other" to non-criminals. However, modern thinking has moved away from this with developments in the psychology of criminal rule-breaking and discussions of how individual psychology can assist the understanding of criminal rule-breaking and risk; including approaches to rehabilitation and behavioural change. Professor Adshead suggests that these different discourses have much to offer one another.
    The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and...

    Anyone can suffer from a brief lack of self control at some point and commit a crime, lots never get caught, many are smart and have the resources to cover & hide their offending, it's the poor & mentally challenged that end up prison statistics because they cant afford a good defence. Money often buys justice.

      That kinda sounds like you're saying only poor and mental people occasionally have a lack of self control, and end up in prison. That's simply not true. Anybody can lose control/snap at one point; for whatever reason, and suffer the consequences of their actions.

      Tony A​ Correct, hard to cover in a few sentances, true, but he poor and mentally challenged do not have the resources to buy a good defence so they are more likely to go to prison.

      If u haven't already i recommend watching the dramatisation of the OJ Simpson trial starring Cuba Gooding Jr. OJ hired a "dream team" of lawyers but faced strong forensic evidence that he'd killed his wife & another. It rather asks: are the rich above the law?

      USA's _"public defender systems have long been plagued by underfunding and excessive caseloads. In Florida in 2009, the annual felony caseload per attorney was over 500 felonies and 2,225 misdemeanors. According to the US Department of Justice, in 2007, about 73% of county public defender offices exceeded the maximum recommended limit of cases (150 felonies or 400 misdemeanors)...The on-going decimation of public defense prevents defense attorneys from conducting “core functions,” including factual investigation into the underlying charges. In a lawsuit brought in Washington State, it emerged that publicly appointed defense attorneys were working less than an hour per case, with caseloads of 1,000 misdemeanors per year...95% of criminal cases end in plea bargaining. Excessive caseloads contribute to this trend, and result in a “meet ‘em and plead ‘em” system of justice, in which clients have little more than a brief conversation in the courtroom with a harried public defender before pleading guilty."_

  • @WildBillCox13
    @WildBillCox13 7 років тому +14

    Another worthy lecture and I thank the professor for her attention to the wider implications of sociality and authority.
    And a few apropos thoughts:
    Successful folks with supra-societal intentions are often able to place themselves in situations of control where their crimes appear (both superficially and, to the extent of their ability, legally) to be nothing more than ordinary reactions to extraordinary stimuli. Abusive Bosses, racist judges, objectifiers of every stripe (Rush Limbaugh comes to mind, though "rabble rousers" are exceptionally prevalent in places where mass media news organizations are not held to the highest ethical and moral standards), and "Hawkish" politicians, fall (or willingly insert themselves) into this category quite regularly, if they are high born.
    I would love to see all applicants for public office and law enforcement administration be made to undergo the same psychological evaluation they prescribe for offenders and abusers of the public trust. Uneven application of standards is a large part of the problem of defining what is criminal and in what situation criminal activity deserves sanctioned opprobrium. In the USA, our electoral college should be carefully scrutinized for aberrant tendencies . . . but you won't see that happen any time soon, because these are "made men" who are expected to be loyal first, and objective in afterthought (and in private).
    Beyond this, our press, our mass media organs, in my opinion, are actively attempting to keep prisons filled with "offenders", just like Hitler's press did, with gross misrepresentation of issues, uneven quantification of ideals, and highly subjective reasoning. It seems to me that the owners of said sources are either embracing psychopathy and sociopathy as goals, or, perhaps, merely obeying the dictates of the folks I point out in my first paragraph.

    Ex given: the legal system has a way of catching or find a person even if they claim they’re innocent they go to prison like many with the same plea then once in an enclosed environment there are many of the same nature and the some of the other nature eventually come to a haul tans going segregated non compliance due to sufficient evidence within the prison as well as the individual that came accross the evidence therefore going to special need from a distortion of what all happened now is that a criminal mind or thought process some would say yes is it a bigger issue of course but it’s the perspective of the person giving the analysis that creates the criminal......😇

      Criminal inclination and behaviour amongst the family Testudinidae is a growth area in modern sociology and criminology: a lot of social scientists believe that if we can understand violent and problematic behaviour amongst the Cryptodira sub-order then we will unlock the secrets to human behaviour itself. Especially in cases of lettuce theft, persistent and wilful hibernation, and criminally slow play on the golf course.

    I understand what you are trying to say. I disagree with 70% . Your intentions are noble. the thing here is everyone is equally guilty if a crime Is a crime. like a sin is a sin. the study here is based upon a very few that were caught. mostly lower income people. study a community that doesn't " brake the law" rich to middle class as intense as you have studied lower income people.

    some people kill because they have a reason to kill ( like killing enemies on the battle, Killing someone because you can't have their possession without having them killed,
    Killing because you're exercising self-defense, etc
    some other guys kill because they want to kill, they don't just like you, they kill for honor. these guys are innate killers.
    other steal stuffs they don't even need, innate thieves...
    you can't just say that all deviant behaviors are not related to someone's genes. some do.

  • @waedjradi
    @waedjradi 4 роки тому +2

    Most criminals in everyday life situations are either consumed by some intoxicant or some deviant external stimuli, like they're driven, even to the point of peer pressure. Majority of the time, I find it that most criminals aren't too brilliant nor meticulous when being committed to a criminal act. Which is why some crimes fail, because, let's be honest here. . . most criminals are not sharp-witted or clever.
    The only kinds of criminals who are extremely eclectic and intelligent are the ones who are financially stabled, in-stealth, and wealthy. So if you go out to wash your car and in broad day light, someone comes at you with a gun, at gun-point, and 9-times-out-of-10, they will appear nervous, shaky, and uneasy (which is quite funny); don't be afraid. Because they are obviously nowhere near clever.

Personality disorders, malignant narcissism, family dynamics, attachment trauma with mother-father, and understanding that unwanted children become criminals, is what no one wants to talk about. I feel like Nadine Burke's study on ACE's (adverse childhood experiences) is pretty much where's it's at. This is really 19th century stuff that we shouldn't be fed anymore.
