Relationship between Natural and Positive Law.
PURPOSE: to demonstrate your engagement with the course materials. This submission incorporates feedback provided to you from previous assignments (particularly in relation to APA citations, clarity, grammar and organization of ideas). In this longer critical essay (page lengths suggested below are approximate, and offered to help those who are learning how to organize a formal critical essay for university): FIRST define and illustrate the relationship between Natural and Positive Law. (approx.1.5 page) SECOND discuss how the shift towards Scientism shaped the logic about deviance and punishment; address the socio-political and material context that contributed to this shift from Antiquity. (approx.1.5 Page) THIRD, explain at least one of the criticisms raised against the application of Scientism in thinking about punishment and criminalization. (approx. 1 paragraph) FINALLY, conclude your paper by connecting your understanding of Natural Law to illustrating how positivism/scientism legal philosophies affected vulnerable populations in Canada in the early to mid 1900s. (approx. 1 page) You must be selective in composing your essay; do not attempt to provide a survey of all the philosophers and historical legal cases you have read about in the course thus far [this is called ‘concept dropping’]. No more than 25% of your submission should be devoted to your examples that illustrate these ideas. You should focus on clearly defining and explaining each idea or concept – see the APA example Finally, students are expected to begin synthesizing references: you must reference at least three (3) of the required readings/resources. Students looking to get an ‘A range’ papers reference at least six(6) sources, including documentaries and guest speakers. You can not cite sources outside of the course materials. *Please use references from the sources below 01. Groake, P (2013). Legal Theories: A Historical Introduction to Philosophy of Law. ISBN. 02. “The Burning Times” documentary by Donna Read. **Please use atleast 6 references from the above sources and do not use references from any other external sources other than the ones mentioned above. **I need 5 pages in total ** APA Format
