Answer:

The M'Naghten Rule

Explanation:

The M'Naghten Rule

The first famous legal test for insanity came in 1843, in the M'Naghten case. ... First, a defendant is deemed insane if they were incapable of knowing what they were doing at the time the committing the object offense. This conclusion comports with criminal law's fundamental conception of culpability.

polet [3.4K]

1. "Each person is to have an equal right to the most extensive total system of equal basic liberties compatible with similar system of liberty of all."

This is called the <em>greatest equality liberty system</em>. The principle addresses the question of the distribution of rights and liberties. This principle states that each person has the right to access basic liberties in the most extensive way that remains compatible with everyone maintaining such rights.

2. "Social and economic inequalities are to be arranged so that they are both:

(a) to the greatest benefit of the least advantaged, consistent with the just savings principle, and

(b) attached to offices and positions open to all under conditions of fair equality of opportunity."

This second feature is divided into the <em>difference principle </em>and the <em>equal opportunity principle</em>. The difference principle states that certain inequalities can be allowed as long as these benefit the less-advantaged members of society. The equal opportunity principle states that these advantages should be able to be acquired through work that is open to all. Therefore, everyone can have a realistic chance of acquiring them.

dezoksy [38]

Answer: You have just committed an attributional bias called: fundamental attribution error.

Explanation: attributional bies reffers to errors made when people try to explain their own behaviour or other's people behaviour based on their own analysis of social situations. In this case, it's a fundamental attribution error because Mark is making an assumption on Allison's behaviour not considering the influence of situational factors and overemphasising the role of dispositional factors such as the distraction Allison may have in her current actions.

Which of the three dimensions of social stratification--wealth, power, and
kotegsom [21]

God, if I could choose, I would say none. All of these lead to inequality (because circumstances vary between many individuals) but I believe prestige should hold the most weight in determining social class. Prestige (which is respect, recognition, or regard) is based on many criteria, including wealth, family background, fame, leadership, power, occupation, and accomplishments. Leadership, power, and accomplishments can both be achieved by any individual with hard work. This is still an unfair balance (gender inequality, racial/ethnical inequality/racism) because of individual factors, it still leaves hope for some people to rise the social ladder.
