...Unit 12: Crime and its Effects on Society Unit code: Y/600/6030 QCF Level 3: BTEC National Credit value: 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose The aim of this unit is to give learners a knowledge of current UK crime and disorder legislation and the sentences and orders available to the criminal justice agencies. Learners will also develop knowledge of the effects of criminal behaviour on communities and an understanding of how society works to reduce crime, disorder and antisocial behaviour and to support the victims and witnesses of crime. Unit introduction This unit introduces learners to the legal framework that exists to prevent crime and deal with offenders. They will look at the powers of the courts, including the orders and sentences that the courts can impose. They will look at the theories of the causes of criminal behaviour and other contributory factors that may lead to criminality and antisocial behaviour, for example socio-economic and environmental influences, lack of education and negative family influences. Learners will explore the problems resulting from criminal activity and antisocial behaviour. They will explore the costs of crime, to local authorities, the community and individuals. Learners will also investigate the ‘fear of crime’ and how this manifests itself in both individuals and communities and the impact this can have on quality of life. Learners will learn how their local police proactively tackle crime using problem-solving models...

...Analyse the impact of two pieces of crime and disorder legislation (M1) Introduction: In my assignment I am going to analyse the impact of two pieces of crime and disorder legislation. In order to analyse this I am going to use a case study. The case study that I chose is about a robbery that happened at Hatton Garden Safe Deposit. There were 6 suspects involved in the robbery which made a hole through the walls to access the vault. The Metropolitan Police said that they received an alarm but apparently the police didn’t respond to it. The robbery ended up with 72 boxes being opened. The Police made a mistake in this case when they received the alarm signal and they didn’t treat it as is supposed to be which is to send a patrol car to the area to make sure nothing happened and everything is under control. In my opinion if the police would took the alarm serious and they sent a car there to patrol and see if something is wrong they would prevent this of happening and also their reputation wouldn’t be affected. There could be a reason for their mistake such as a human mistake but having in fact that they are the ones that protects and serve the public such mistakes shouldn’t be made. The consequences of the police mistake in this case had a great impact on the public because they think that the police service is not as efficient as it supposed to be. Also the people that boxes got robbed are going to complain because they are paying taxes to the council in order for the police...

...Introduction Between the 6th and 10th of August 2011, English cities experienced serious civil disorder after the shooting of a young black man (Lea, 2013). Now referred to as the English riots, they are regarded by many as the most serious disturbances in the UK since the Brixton riots of the early 1980s (Barentsen, 2013). The Criminal Justice System (CJS) rapidly dispensed over 3,000 arrests upon those who participated (Ashe, 2014). Through local media outlets, authorities such as the CJS and the government gave their explanation as to the causes of this uproar (Pieri, 2014). However, there was little information from the point of view of those arrested and it is arguable that the CJS has provided a clear and concise exploration of the...

...In this unit I will show an in-depth understanding of health and wellbeing. I will then produce a comprehensive description that shows an in depth understanding of two different factors that affect health and wellbeing. I will also compare and show the differences between the medical and social models of health and wellbeing and why individuals often fail to comply with health education advice. I will then draw conclusions about each model of health and wellbeing. I will then aim to give a description of two ways of which individual’s quality of life is affected by ill health. Section A Good health is to do with physical, intellectual, emotional and social aspects in life. These aspects affect us daily. Eating healthy and exercising regularly is important as this could potentially prevent illness and disease. Good health may also be affected by society and how the media influences us. This may be related to teenagers and how they often look up to celebrities who could potentially affect their health and wellbeing. Environmental and economic factors have a big influence daily. One example of this is where we live and if there is crime. If there is, this may have a big impact on our physical health as well as emotional. People may be affected by economic factors specifically if they haven’t got much money, this could potentially mean they cannot afford treatment which in turn makes their physical and emotional health worse. There are three ways to describe health and wellbeing...

...bureaucratic institution, providing the primary state response to crime and disorder. That was primarily a development of the 19th century and a reaction to the rapid social change of the industrial revolution and rapid urbanization. Prior to 1800, governments maintained order by a variety of means, local and national. One of the key historical debates concerns the effectiveness of these approaches and the degree of continuity between the premodern and modern police models. Around 1800 a small number of distinctively different types of police institution emerged. The French, under Napoleon, instituted the Gendarmerie, a state military police model. It evolved from the “Marechaussee,” which had had a dual military and civil function since the 16th century. The model was exported across Europe by Napoleon. The British developed two models. The first, set up to answer similar challenges to the Gendarmerie in France, was the Royal Irish Constabulary model. It was close to the state military model, but distinctively styled as part of the civil power of the state and subordinated to the Magistracy. The Irish model was subsequently exported to Britain’s colonies and became the basis of forces such as the Indian Police Service. The Metropolitan Police was consciously created as a local force with a uniform that was deliberately different from the military and a mission that focused on prevention of crime rather than the repression of disorder. This state civilian model became the basis for all UK...

...Australia Introduction Microsoft Australia welcomes the opportunity to participate through this Submission in the Whole-of Government Review of E-Security. A periodic review of the E-Security framework, in light of the quickly evolving threat landscape, is both timely and appropriate. Over the last thirty years there have been dramatic advances in information technology - the development of the microprocessor, the rise of the personal computer, the emergence of the Internet - which have revolutionised the way information is created, stored, shared, and used. Today, powerful, affordable and diverse devices, together with expanding broadband networks, create a powerful opportunity for connectivity for individuals and communities. Over the past two decades, rapid advances in software, IT services, and communications have enabled many traditionally separate and disparate infrastructures and business operations to become more connected. Through this connectivity virtually every aspect of society has experienced a transformation. Businesses and governments have been able to manage and streamline their operations. Individuals have been offered ready access to multiple sources of information thereby expanding knowledge and choice. Across every field of endeavour – commercial, social, scientific and philanthropic – the power of information has been increased and the transaction costs of engagement have been lowered. Our broad reliance on software, services, and communications, along with the...

...heart of the justice system. This includes the managerialistic values, modernization of the Government and covering-up of punitive measures taken against the offender that all point to the political rhetoric around the centeredness of the victim. Furthermore, the view of traditional justice is accounted for in order to get a grasp of the many underlying factors that can be attributed to the so called rebirth and the consequent concentration on the victim. The paper firstly discusses characteristics of victims, the impact of crime on victims and also their needs for a better understanding of who they are and what can be done to help them. Particular attention is drawn to stereotypes associated with victims and constructions of the ideal victim. Secondly, the adversarial nature of English justice and implications for victims are discussed, as well as some tensions between the interests of the offender and the victim, and the opposed nature of the two. Procedural and service rights especially play an important role in defining whether victims are given appropriate attention. Many new initiatives favour the victim and pledge for its better treatment, but it will be shown that there are conflicts as to what can be done in reality and what is proposed. However, it cannot be disputed that support for victims has progressed significantly within the last decade. In the dissertation, it will be argued that the position of the victim, influenced by these...
